Eton Thameside, Eton

Eton Thameside proudly stands on the site of the former Rafts Boathouse, which once served Eton College for its principal boating activities on the river. Generations of future statesmen, prime ministers, and monarchs learned to row and cox here, and the world-famous Eton Boating Song was born.

This modern townhouse is located in the heart of historic Eton, close to the High Street with its shops, restaurants, and antique stores. Windsor is within walking distance via the Windsor Bridge (closed to traffic), offering extensive shopping amenities, theaters, and museums.

Additionally, Junctions 5 and 6 of the M4 provide easy access to Heathrow, Central London, the West Country, and the M25.

Sporting and leisure facilities abound, including golf at Sunningdale, Wentworth, and Datchet, horse riding in Windsor and Ascot, polo, horse riding in Windsor Great Park, boating on the River Thames, and athletics at the Thames Valley Athletics Centre in Eton.
