About this Property
Built by the owners in 2004, this beautifully presented waterside residence is set just off the River Bure and offers well proportioned and flexible accommodation, a private mooring and a detached wet boathouse with generous ancillary accommodation suitable for a variety of uses.
Of timber construction under a thatched roof set on steel piles, this extended and improved riverside home has been designed to combine the best modern materials and standards of finish with the style and character of a traditional Broads residence, complemented by the idyllic location.
The accommodation comprises a spacious reception hall which also doubles as a dining room. Double doors lead to an impressive dual aspect living room with high vaulted ceilings and a view of the water; this in turn leads to the sun room, bathed in natural light looking over the mooring. The recently refitted and extended kitchen/breakfast room now has a contemporary finish combining high gloss units with Corian worktops and an abundance of built in appliances.
The ground floor continues with a utility room, shower room, two double bedrooms and one en-suite bathroom. The first floor is arranged as one spacious master suite with a generous master bedroom leading out onto a balcony offering river views, a large five piece en-suite bathroom, two walk in wardrobe/dressing rooms and a galleried study area looking over the living room.
The boathouse was built in 2007 and provides a secure undercover mooring for one boat and further ancillary accommodation, currently arranged as a 22ft long living room with kitchenette, double bedroom with covered balcony and en-suite shower room.
The landscaped gardens are laid mainly to lawn with a selection of decked and paved seating areas and a variety of mature trees, shrubs and flowering borders. There is ample parking for a number of cars/boats/caravans etc with a detached garage and a 32ft side on mooring.
Additional features include sealed unit double glazing, oil fired central heating, electric underfloor heating to the kitchen, master en-suite bathroom and the rear porch and a heat recovery system.
A high quality property in a tranquil location, early viewing recommended.
