A Waterside Wonderland: Character, Charm & Contemporary Living in Norton - with potential AirBnb Detached Annexe   

Are you searching for a truly unique home? This remarkable, individually designed property in the heart of rural Norton offers an extraordinary blend of historic character and high-end contemporary finishes — all set against a tranquil waterside backdrop with stunning views towards the River Severn.

From the moment you arrive, this home makes a statement. Lovingly restored and extended by its current owners, it greets you with an enclosed porch that opens into a charming cottage-style living room, complete with a grand Inglenook fireplace, log-burning stove, and traditional "ledge and brace" doors that nod to its heritage.

Wander through to a stylish interconnecting utility hallway, fitted with bespoke timber cabinetry, a classic Belfast sink, and space for an American-style fridge freezer. A luxurious four-piece family bathroom sits off this space, boasting a freestanding roll-top bath, double walk-in shower, and a beautifully ornate washbasin.

But the true heart of the home is the breath-taking kitchen and breakfast room — an open, light-filled masterpiece with exposed brickwork, two-tone bespoke cabinetry, a feature AGA, and a central island built for entertaining. Overhead, the vaulted ceiling with twin Velux windows floods the space with natural light, creating a room that’s equal parts rustic and refined.

Flowing seamlessly into an open-plan lounge and dining area, the space is crowned by large bi-folding doors that lead directly to a generous timber deck — an ideal spot to soak in the sunset over the river.

Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms and a large, characterful landing area. The master suite enjoys easy access to a stunning bathroom and showcases exposed brickwork for an earthy, elegant feel.

The multi-tiered rear garden is a private oasis, with a lawn, expansive decking, and panoramic views of the Severn. But the standout feature? A detached annexe, complete with its own gated access, deck, bi-folding doors, open-plan kitchen/living space, and a sleek, modern wet room — perfect for multi-generational living, a private guest suite, or a lucrative AirBnb opportunity.

Rarely does a property of this calibre, character, and flexibility come to market. Viewings are now available — come and experience this exceptional riverside retreat for yourself.  REF LH0563
