INVESTMENT OPPURTUNITY The Marina Management company confirmed that they will allow the Water Lodge to be purchased as an investment and let even on a short term basis. In the interest of professional marine safety and to restrict misuse they will only allow letting if managed by their preferred letting partner 'Altedo'.
They already manage similar units on other Marinas for the company and are an experienced provider, specialising in lettings at marinas. This is the only way these will be allowed to be let and so self-management, companies like Airbnb or other short term letting agents is not permitted.

TENURE Purchasing this property is similar to purchasing a boat and so is not technically a permanent home and so does not fit the traditional Tenure Guidelines (Freehold or Leasehold).

This floating lodges will be fully owned on completion. Ideally you will choose to make an agreement with the Marina Management company to moor it here at Buckden Marina or you could move the lodge to another location/marina of your choosing. A contract confirming the marina fees will be offered prior to completing the purchase.
