Thorpe Island, Yarmouth Road, Norwich, NR7

A Unique Investment Opportunity – Island Plot with River Access Only, No Road Access.

Here’s a rare chance to own a secluded island plot accessible only by boat, offering complete privacy with incredible potential.

This unique piece of land is currently registered as a business and boat yard with a zero rating, presenting an excellent investment opportunity.

Located on the beautiful River Yare, this plot in Thorpe St Andrew combines natural beauty with a central location close to Norwich city centre. With no road access, the only way to reach this exclusive plot is by crossing the river by tender, giving it a unique sense of seclusion.

Conveniently, local parking is available nearby, making access easy while maintaining the plot’s private feel.

Plot Details:

Moorings: Two side moorings (31ft and 50ft) and a separate mooring dock (approximately 50ft), making it an ideal spot for a widebeam narrowboat or similar large vessels.

Amenities: Water access with the potential to install electricity.

Features: Includes a shed, log store, mature trees, and seating areas with stunning river views and abundant wildlife.

Included: 28ft Calypso Live-aboard Boat, in Full Working Order. The property comes with a live-aboard boat, perfect for immediate use or as extra accommodation. The boat, BlueBelle, has been recently refurbished with a new interior and a fresh coat of paint last year. It also has a valid Boat Safety Scheme (BSS) certification for the next four years.

Boat Interior: Spacious double bedroom with an en-suite shower and electric flush toilet. Kitchen: Fully equipped with a cooker, fridge, and plenty of storage.

While the plot already offers many features, it would benefit from some investment to unlock its full potential. With the right vision and enhancements, it could become a truly special and profitable long-term investment.

Whether you’re looking to expand the existing business or create a personal haven, this plot offers multiple possibilities for growth and enjoyment.

Ideal for Large Vessels: The moorings are perfectly suited for a widebeam narrowboat or similar vessels, adding even more value to the plot.
