We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Discreetly nestled behind a private gated entrance in one of Marlow's most sought‐after locations. Rippling Waters is a unique riverside property.
The ground floor provides an enclosed covered mooring suitable for a vessel of up to approximately 30 feet, with an impressive ceiling height of around 10 feet at normal tide.
This level also includes a separate kitchen area and shower room/WC, making it ideal for entertaining and enjoying riverside gatherings.
An ornate external spiral staircase leads to the upper floor accommodation. Here, the property offers two further bedrooms, one benefiting from a private balcony wrapped in mature vine foliage.
The spacious main reception room features an open fireplace and enjoys glorious river views, while a charming dining area with panelled windows on two sides floods the space with natural light.
A galley kitchen and bathroom complete the accommodation.
A charming one‐bedroom studio, offering potential for enlargement (subject to the necessary planning consents), sits within the grounds and opens onto an iron‐trellised walkway entwined with planting, guiding you towards the boathouse itself - a striking and picturesque riverside landmark.
Set within secluded, mature gardens and hidden from public view, the property enjoys an enchanting position on the tranquil banks of the River Thames.
Rich in character and heritage, it has previously provided a backdrop for the films True Blue and The Wind in the Willows, adding to its unique provenance.
Approached via Quarry Wood Road through wrought‐iron gates, the sense of privacy and serenity is immediate.
The gardens, filled with established shrubs, flowers and winding pathways, create a magical, almost otherworldly setting leading down to the water's edge.

Only upon personal inspection can the full beauty, character and tranquility of this extraordinary Victorian boathouse be fully appreciated.
