Riverside properties to float your boat

From the idyllic scenes conjured up in the pages of Kenneth Grahame’s children’s classic, The Wind in the Willows, through to the comic capers of Jerome K Jerome’s Three Men in a Boat – the comings and goings of life on the river have remained enduringly popular for generations.

And whether you enjoy a spot of sailing, the occasional wild swim or simply want to watch the world go by from the peaceful surrounds of your own secluded garden, properties by the water have much to offer.

Alongside the obvious aesthetic qualities, such locations can also be good for mental and physical wellbeing – perfectly positioned for winter walks and summer strolls.

If recent experiences have got you hankering for the great outdoors then our selection of waterside properties – from quaint cottages through to large period homes – may just float your boat.
