瓦特豪斯出生在意大利羅馬,1849年4月6日受洗,出生日期不明,據信可能為1月1日至23日間。[1]小時候他取了一個意大利語外號叫「尼諾」(Nino)。父母亦為英格蘭畫家,[2]原為了追求藝術理想而居住於意大利,後來瓦特豪斯五歲時隨父母返回英國。
瓦特豪斯早年在父親的美術工作室學繪畫與雕塑,1870年進入倫敦皇家藝術學院。他初期作品已顯現出他後半生畫古典題材的一貫作風,在皇家藝術學院,英國藝術家協會等藝術展覽頗受歡迎。1874年他以一幅《睡眠和他的異母/異父兄弟死亡》參與皇家藝術學院的夏季展覽會獲得好評,以後他的作品每年參加皇家藝術學院的展覽會。
1883年他與一位美術學校校長的女兒結婚,後生兩孩子,都死於難產。他妻子也是曾經在皇家藝術學院的展覽會上有參展作品的畫家。繪畫之餘瓦特豪斯從事美術教學工作,任過皇家藝術學院委員會委員,而加入各種藝術協會。他1917年死於癌症,因此自1915年開始繪製的奧菲莉亞系列作品也沒能完成。死後他葬於倫敦的肯薩爾綠野公墓。[3]
