Waters Edge, Tannery Lane, Surrey, GU23 7EF

*** Launch Day Saturday 18th July *** Approached via a private lane serving just three properties, Waters Edge is an exceptional waterside residence occupying a beautifully landscaped plot of approximately 0.36 acres on one of the most desirable stretches of the River Wey Navigation.

Offering approximately 60 metres of private waterfrontage, a rare wet boathouse, private mooring, detached oak-clad riverside guest cottage, extensive parking and far-reaching views across open water meadows and protected nature reserve land, this unique property combines an enviable boating lifestyle with outstanding access to London and the surrounding Surrey countryside.

Positioned directly on the River Wey Navigation, the property enjoys immediate access to miles of navigable waterways.

Paddleboarding, kayaking, canal boating and wild swimming are all popular locally, while picturesque riverside walks lead directly to Ripley, Send, Pyrford, Papercourt Lock and Triggs Lock, with several highly regarded waterside pubs and restaurants accessible on foot, by paddleboard, kayak or boat.

The River Wey Navigation connects directly to the River Thames, allowing boat owners to explore an extensive network of waterways from their own private mooring.

The canal frontage has been significantly enhanced in recent years with newly installed piling and galvanised steel retaining walls topped with teak capping, together with mooring hooks, dock access and private mooring facilities for a canal boat.

Residents benefit from reduced National Trust mooring charges, making this an exceptional opportunity for boating enthusiasts.

Set within beautifully landscaped wraparound gardens, the grounds have been thoughtfully designed to provide year-round colour, privacy and interest.

Mature planting includes spectacular double-flowering wisteria, hydrangeas, roses, peonies and rhododendrons, complemented by mature fruit trees including apple, pear, cherry and plum, a productive vegetable garden, greenhouse and established herb beds.

An automated irrigation system draws water directly from the canal, helping to maintain the gardens throughout the seasons.

A particular highlight is the rare wet boathouse, thoughtfully adapted to create a unique waterside entertaining space with large opening doors directly onto the navigation.

Perfect for summer gatherings, celebrations and relaxed evenings by the water, it creates a seamless connection between the house, garden and canal.

The current owners have invested extensively in both the property and its waterfront setting, including replacement piling, the construction of the detached oak-clad riverside guest cottage, creation of the principal suite, reconfiguration of the living accommodation, conversion of the wet boathouse into a distinctive entertaining space, landscaped gardens, new bathrooms and carefully curated interior enhancements throughout.

The principal residence extends to approximately 1,964 sq. Ft and has been extensively remodelled, reconfigured and enhanced by the current owners.

At the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen and dining room opening into a beautifully remodelled snug featuring extensive fitted cabinetry and space for a piano.

A separate study provides an ideal home-working environment, while an additional reception room is currently arranged as a playroom but could equally serve as a fifth bedroom if required.

The principal suite enjoys delightful views across both the gardens and the navigation and provides a luxurious private retreat.

Features include fitted wardrobes, air conditioning, underfloor heating and large glazed sliding doors opening directly onto the garden.

The boutique-style en-suite has been thoughtfully designed to evoke the feel of a luxury hotel suite, featuring a statement copper bath, oversized walk-in shower and elegant screened open-plan design.

A further family bathroom serves the ground floor accommodation and is generously proportioned, featuring a substantial walk-in shower and striking Moroccan-inspired patterned floor tiles which add colour and character.
