A rare waterside townhouse on Custom House Lane, this leasehold property offers direct marina access with a private 12m boat berth and expansive harbour, estuary and sea views. The house is arranged over multiple floors with a flexible ground-floor room (currently used as a sunroom/bedroom) that opens onto a westerly-facing terrace — ideal for evening sun and entertaining. The main living floor features a sitting room with balcony, formal dining room and a modern kitchen/breakfast room. The upper floor houses the principal bedroom with en-suite plus two further bedrooms and a family shower room.
Practical strengths include a larger-than-average garage, driveway parking, double glazing and mains gas central heating. The property is offered chain-free and sits on a long lease (circa 962–966 years remaining) with a nominal ground rent, making the tenure secure. There is scope to create extra space by converting the loft, subject to planning, which would increase bedroom count and value.
Important points to note: this is a leasehold home with combined service charges (property and marina berth) payable — the advertised annual service charge figures are significant and should be reviewed. Broadband speeds in the area are reported very slow. Council tax level is described as quite expensive. The wider development has planning history for additional apartments and an active management structure; potential buyers should check current marina and estate service arrangements and any shared liabilities.
This townhouse will suit buyers who prioritise waterfront lifestyle — boat owners, buyers wanting dramatic harbour vistas and anyone seeking an established multi-storey home with scope to extend. Early internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the marina setting, terrace orientation and the house’s flexible layout.
