There are few things more relaxing in life than settling down, chosen drink in hand, and watching the sun set over water.
Nearly always commanding a premium, waterside property has proved even more desirable in recent months as people reassess what they want from their homes and look for more outdoor space and access to the countryside.
Living by the coast or beside a river or lake offers much more than just an eye-catching view. It can also help to promote wellbeing, reduce stress and encourage exercise.
