You don’t have to move away from the
city to enjoy a waterside property – Beach
House in Hammersmith has all the charm
of a rural bolt-hole, but with the advantage
of being in west London. Originally built
as a boat house, it was remodelled and
extended in the 1760s. The interiors are
classically Georgian, but, unusually, there is
a long enclosed balcony that runs the length
of the building, which creates a riverside
room that looks out over the Thames. At
the rear is a landscaped garden – which, at
almost 130 feet in length, is a remarkable
size for such a central location. The nearest
Tube station is just a short stroll away, but
whoever lives at Beach House has a better
transport option – there’s a private pier
where you can moor your own boat.
BEACH HOUSE, W6
On the bank of the Thames, this
Hammersmith property brings a touch
of the countryside to west London. The
double-fronted Georgian house is Grade II
listed, with six bedrooms, staff
accommodation and a gym. There are also
mature gardens and off-street parking.
£8.75 million.
