Waterfront properties have appeal

Purchasing a waterfront property in London is one of the strategies property investors can adopt if they want to make an attractive buy, it has been stated.

There are benefits to getting such properties, according to Nicholas Leeming, the director of propertyfinder.com, who says such investments often offer panoramic views and can be attractive to many.

When making such an investment, buyers should not forget one of the core things that make a property attractive - location - therefore people must choose carefully, he said.

"As always, those properties that are in prime residential areas - with good transport links and amenities - will hold their value much better than those in peripheral locations, further up or down the river," he said.

He also went on to state that waterfronts have been popular for developments in recent past, "and so are not immune from the laws of oversupply compared to demand, but there are deals to be done here".

Henley-on-Thames recently made headlines when a £22 million house was sold, highlighting the appeal of the area's romantic riverside setting according to the Times.ADNFCR-1548-ID-19063977-ADNFCR
