About this Property
Hidden away in a peaceful and private corner of the Broads is this highly unusual one acre plot which contains an award winning waterside property along with two building plots, both offering detailed planning permission for detached, single storey dwellings, with double garages and moorings.
Originally the site of Neatishead boatyard, the land was purchased in the 1980s by the architect who went on to design the existing property which was completed in 1988. Of brick and block construction set upon steel and concrete piles, to an award winning standard, recognised for its design, specification and craftsmanship. It has been used by the family as a beloved year-round second home ever since.
The generous upside-down accommodation consists of an entrance hall, cloakroom, two double ground floor bedrooms both served by en-suite bathroom/shower rooms. The spacious first floor comprises a 26ft long triple aspect kitchen/dining room, utility room, bedroom 3 and a 27ft long triple aspect living room with access out onto a large south facing balcony/sun terrace.
Other features include UPVC sealed unit double glazing, electric heating complemented by a 9kw wood burner stove and mahogany internal doors.
The two building plots, which combined extend to approximately 0.4 acres, have permission for two detached bungalows, both with four bedrooms, double garage and private moorings.
Completely unseen from the road, this site sits directly on Lime Kiln Dyke, only a mile from Barton Broad.
Barton Turf is a small, unspoilt and highly sought after village at the heart of the Norfolk Broads within easy reach of a wealth of local amenities with Wroxham approximately 5 miles away and two close market towns, Stalham (5 miles) and North Walsham (8 miles).
