Summary - 2 The Boathouse, Gibraltar Lane SL6 9TR
2 bed 2 bath Detached
Renovated historic boathouse with private mooring and stunning river views.
Private jetty with two 30ft moorings
Step ashore to a rare waterside home set directly on a scenic stretch of river, originally built in 1887 as a boathouse and newly renovated throughout. The property’s private jetty with two 30ft moorings, expansive river-facing terrace and lower decking deliver genuine riverside living and excellent entertaining space. Inside, a vaulted open-plan living area and well-equipped kitchen feel spacious; a spiral staircase rises to a generous principal bedroom with river views and dressing area. There is scope to partition this principal room into two bedrooms if additional sleeping space is required.
This detached Tudor-style house sits on a decent plot with attractive garden access to the water. The finish is tasteful and largely move-in ready, while the layout includes a versatile mezzanine/snug suitable for a home office, children's room or guest space. Heating is mains gas boiler and radiators, council tax is described as affordable, and flood risk is very low.
Notable practical points: the property benefits from one garage space but is reached via a country path rather than direct road access. Broadband speeds are very slow and the building’s original timber-frame construction is assumed to have no insulation, which may affect running costs despite recent renovation. These factors are important to consider alongside the rare riverside mooring and tranquil setting within National Trust countryside and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
For those seeking downsized river living with character, this home pairs historic charm and modern renovation with immediate boating potential. It will appeal to buyers prioritising location, views and outdoor leisure over ultra-fast connectivity or direct vehicular access to the front door.
