What We Say at the Zoe Napier Group

This is a sensational property that will upgrade your lifestyle – Modern architecture is often linked to nature and wellbeing, featuring full height double glazed glass windows, open plan living and extensive balcony spaces from which to live the life to the full. Waterman’s Lodge truly is designed with entertainment in mind, the kitchen solitions facilitate several floors and makes it possible for hosts to enjoy the event as much as the guests. Whether it’s sailing followed by a garden party with a live band, a dinner party followed by a block buster movie in the bespoke cinema room, canapés on any of the 3 balconies, or a rooftop BBQ with star gazing, this house excels and has it all!

What the Owners Say

We knew when we purchased a riverfront plot, that we must design a building worthy of it’s unique position. To allow the breath-taking views to be enjoyed throughout the day, whilst working with nature to ensure minimal impact. Every day we marvel at the many bespoke features, reflecting the care and attention we gave to the build (perhaps we should have said “yes “ to Grand Designs!). Our children have now flown the nest and whilst it will be very hard to leave our dream home, we have decided to downsize and offer the property with no onward chain.

History & Background

An Inspirational example of Modern Waterside Architecture overlooking the River Crouch  with Pontoon Mooring. Enjoying over 4000 sq ft of luxurious accommodation, the property sits on a beautifully landscaped plot of 0.31 of an acre (stls) with immediate access to it’s very own pontoon dock and riparian rights onto the River Crouch – a stunning stretch of estuary on the East Coast, largely surrounded by open countryside.

The house was completed in 2015 with the remaining term of a 10-year Buildzone Warranty. Its luxurious specification and great engineering, combined with high efficiency materials and inexpensive running costs constitute the perfect coastal retreat. The rain water harvesting system, underfloor heating and solar panelled energy (owned outright) supports the extensive double-glazed panels from which to enjoy stunning, panoramic vistas.

The interior is over four floors with superb balconies for entertaining, with great expanses of family living space where bi-fold doors envelop the sea breeze and the never tiring, changing waterside views. Every attention has been paid to detail in the design, including options for a ground floor or third floor annexes or alternative party/summer room onto the coastal seascape gardens.
