Situated right at the water's edge on the stretch of the river which is widely thought of as inspiring Kenneth Graham's 'Wind in the Willows', lays this charming home boasting it's very own private jetty with two, over 30ft moorings.

Originally constructed as a boathouse in 1887, this property has undergone a splendid renovation by it's current owners and is perfect for those seeking a unique riverside home.

Featuring an expansive terrace facing the water, this provides an idyllic setting for both entertainment and relaxation. Here, you can experience the peaceful riverside ambiance while enjoying breathtaking views extending up the river. Beneath the terrace lies a decking area, offering a shaded spot on the riverbank, which leads to the private moorings just in front.

Inside the property you'll discover a tastefully decorated open-plan living area featuring a vaulted ceiling and a fully equipped kitchen. On this level, there is a generously sized elegant bathroom, complete with a spacious shower and twin sinks. Within this living space, you also have stairs up to a versatile area that can easily serve as a cosy snug, a home office, or a children's bedroom. Doors then lead you onto a second terrace, offering splendid views of the woodland behind the boathouse.

A spiral staircase off the entrance level reveals a spacious principle bedroom; again with direct river views, accompanied by a dressing area and an additional sink and toilet. Notably, there is potential to partition this room into two separate bedrooms if desired.

This property presents simply beautifully and is a rare opportunity. It also benefits from use of one garage space, but please note that access to the property is via a country path.


In close proximity to this property, you'll find vast expanses of National Trust land and a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with picturesque hiking trails and you can enjoy views of the River Thames and the town of Marlow.

Despite its tranquil rural ambiance, this property boasts an advantageous location, offering convenient access to both Cookham village centre and Marlow. Cookham station offers a convenient transportation link to Marlow or Maidenhead.

Cookham Dean is a delightful village that caters to your everyday shopping needs with local stores in Cookham. Meanwhile, Marlow presents an excellent array of shopping options, featuring a diverse mix of shops and restaurants.

This region offers a wealth of sporting facilities, including golf clubs such as Marlow, Maidenhead and Henley. For horse racing enthusiasts, Windsor, Ascot, and Newbury racecourses are easily accessible. Those interested in polo can enjoy matches at Smith's Lawn and The Royal Berkshire Polo Club in Winkfield. Additionally, opportunities for boating and sailing are abundant on the River Thames and in nearby Henley, renowned for hosting the prestigious Henley Regatta.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
