Pharaohs Island is a private eyot on the main Thames stream between the locks at Chertsey and Shepperton. The island is accessed exclusively by boat, providing serenity, privacy and security to the 23 homes forming this close-knit community. The island itself has a long and fascinating history with suggestions that the Egyptian themed name of the island and all of its properties arise from the island having been gifted by the Treasury to Admiral Lord Nelson following his victory at the Battle of the Nile at the end of the 18th century. There is no onward chain and viewing is truly advisable to appreciate this unique setting.
All access on and off the island is exclusively by boat. The property comes with a fishing dory sporting a modern 30 hp engine. Additionally, the island residents association owns and maintains 5 communal rowing boats. Trains to London run from Walton-on-Thames (35 mins to Waterloo) and from Shepperton (55 mins to Waterloo).
