To ask for your help in finding a marina/ quayside townhouse

[Househuntingwoes]

NC as I've been asking around IRL too.

DH and I would love to live in a townhouse on a marina or quayside.

Both of us are able to live anywhere in England except Devon or Cornwall (for work travelling reason) and don't want to be too far north (for weather reasons )

The problem with having no real ties to where you want to live is that it makes narrowing it down hard!

We've seen houses we like at Salford Quays in Manchester, Sovereign Harbour in Eastbourne and Port Solent near Portsmouth so that gives an idea of the kind of thing we want.

Are there any other similar developments we should consider (even ones that aren't built yet but are planned)?

Another vote for Hythe marina not only is it peaceful with a great pub but you have instant access to the New Forest and. Waitrose !!!

Weymouth is reasonably priced for Dorset

Has anyone got any views on/ experiences of St Marys Island near Chatham?

Chatham itself seems to have a bad reputation but St Marys Island looks lovely in the photos.

Are you def going down south?

I like this one that used to be a pub www.rightmove.co.uk/new-homes-for-sale/property-27223144.html

And this one in the same area www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-28218198.html

Bloody hell, you could afford the whole block! www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-26458797.html

there are several properties going on that development if you search.

You certainly get a lot for your money with those evedallas

I'm erring away from inland rivers because of the flood risk- estuaries/ the sea is looking more promising.
