About this Property
The ultimate riverside residence. Offering everything you could wish for from a unique, high quality waterside home, and so much more!
The traditionally styled and beautifully kept main house is thought to date back to the 1920s, full of character and charm, with generous accommodation and breathtaking views in one of the most highly prized locations that the Broads has to offer.
Complementing the main house is the substantial wet boathouse, built in 2004, designed to accommodate a river cruiser and a Broads yacht. The sail loft currently offers spacious guest accommodation which is further enhanced by a large, covered balcony providing commanding views out over the house, river and the private mooring basin, which provides the facility to moor multiple craft.
In total the plot extends to approximately half an acre with extensive off road parking, including an area ideal for boats/motorhomes etc and well-tended south west facing lawned gardens, making the most of the simply stunning main river location.
Hidden away from Lower Street, yet within easy walking distance of all the amenities that Horning has to offer, this property really is the perfect riverside home. Early viewing is strongly advised.
