There is a large open plan living room with a wood-burning stove, a contemporary kitchen with concrete worktops, principal bedroom with en suite bathroom plus a second bedroom and shower room. The aft Captains cabin has one double bed and one single bed. This mooring also comes with the added benefit of an underground parking space. The Riverside Quarter residential moorings are on a picturesque stretch of the River Thames. Boats moored here currently have a residential license to 2063. Residents of this secure, gated mooring with CCTV can use the development’s facilities including 24-hour concierge/security, restaurants, gym, steam room, hot tub, and swimming pools."
