4 bedroom detached house for sale

Set within one of the Thames’ most exclusive private island, this exceptional riverside residence offers a rare combination of seclusion, water frontage, potential and understated luxury.

Approached on foot via a private bridge, the setting immediately delivers a sense of arrival and quiet detachment. Surrounded entirely by the river and mature greenery, the island offers an atmosphere of privacy and calm that is increasingly difficult to find, where daily life is gently shaped by the movement of water and changing light across the landscape.

The principal residence is a beautifully considered timber-built home, designed with a refined simplicity that allows the surroundings to take centre stage. Generous glazing invites natural light throughout the interior, while framing elevated views across the gardens and towards the Thames beyond. The result is a home that feels both contemporary and grounded, offering comfort and clarity in equal measure.

Internally, the accommodation is arranged to provide a natural balance of living and private space, with three bedrooms complemented by generous reception areas and a well-appointed kitchen and dining environment. The overall impression is one of calm sophistication, with each space flowing effortlessly into the next and out towards the gardens.

Within the grounds sits a separate detached dwelling, offering an additional layer of versatility and independence. Currently arranged as a self-contained one-bedroom residence, it provides elegant ancillary accommodation that may suit guests, extended family, or those seeking a dedicated studio or workspace within the same private setting.

The gardens are a defining feature of the property, extending generously to the water’s edge where a 37 ft deep-water mooring provides direct access onto the Thames. This rare frontage allows for an exceptional riverside lifestyle, whether for boating, quiet contemplation or entertaining beside the water.

A selection of outbuildings, including workshop and storage facilities, further enhances the practicality of the estate without compromising its sense of refinement.

Despite its remarkable sense of seclusion, Wheatleys Eyot remains conveniently positioned. A short stroll across the footbridge leads to Sunbury-on-Thames, with its village amenities, riverside dining and direct rail services into central London.
