This is an in-room auction which will also be live-streamed with availability for internet, telephone and proxy bidding.

Situated on a particularly attractive section of the River Thames, this pretty Edwardian boathouse benefits from a certificate of lawfulness to be used as a residential dwelling.

Description
Located at the end of a long gated driveway, and occupying a reasonable plot of approximately 0.13 acres, this attractive wet boathouse sits alongside the northern riverbank, enjoying southerly views across the river and open countryside beyond. At present, there is modest accommodation totalling just over 800 sq. Ft., approximately 320 sq. Ft. Of which is covered mooring. The remaining accommodation is limited and very basic, with a single bed-sitting room with a fireplace, a small kitchen and a loft space. Consequently, there is an excellent opportunity to either refurbish the existing building, or to replace it with a new building, subject to any necessary consents. In addition to the boathouse, there are moorings to either side, giving a riverbank frontage of approximately 100 ft., an area of garden and a sizeable timber shed and log store. Other buildings within the proximity belong to rowing clubs and the nearby Oratory School. There are no other residential houses.
