Neatishead 5 Bedroom Detached house

About this Property

A substantial waterside residence with grounds extending to approximately 0.8 acres, a large boathouse with annexe/holiday accommodation above, a private slipway and moorings leading out onto Lime Kiln Dyke, close to Barton Broad with access to the entire Norfolk Broads network.

Benefitting from a quiet and private location in one of the Broads’ most sought after villages, this imposing property has been dramatically extended and offers generous and versatile accommodation with five bedrooms, four bathroom/shower rooms, two reception rooms and a conservatory.

The picturesque plot leads down to the water’s edge with vehicular access down to the private slipway, allowing boats, kayaks, paddleboards and dinghies to be launched directly onto Lime Kiln Dyke.

The impressive detached two storey boathouse provides excellent facilities with an internal mooring dock measuring 37’9″ x 23’2″ with electricity and water. The fully self-contained accommodation above consists of a living room/dining room with a balcony looking out over the water, kitchen area, double bedroom and a shower room.

The property also provides ample off road parking for multiple cars/boats/caravans etc with a detached double garage.

Neatishead is a much admired Broadland village served by a well stocked village shop and a highly regarded pub/restaurant, both within easy walking distance.

The property is set within the Broads National Park and village conservation area with far reaching views. Lime Kiln Dyke leads to Barton Broad, Norfolk’s second largest broad, home to a wonderful variety of bird and wildlife as well as the Norfolk Punt Club – one of the friendliest sailing clubs on the Broads.
