An incredibly spacious and versatile property set in a quiet and private location, offering the rarely available combination of riverside living with beautiful views and scope to keep a boat, sail, row, kayak, paddle board and fish, whilst also being within walking distance of Norwich city centre and a mainline railway station.

The generous and flexible accommodation extends to approximately 3,130 sq ft and includes a triple aspect living room with wood burner, a 29ft long dining room, garden room, conservatory and a spacious 28ft long family kitchen/breakfast room along with five double bedrooms, four bathroom/shower rooms, study, utility room and a detached double garage.

The peaceful and private gardens extend to approximately 0.45 acres and benefit from a southerly aspect with over 100ft of quay headed river frontage providing direct access onto the River Yare, with ample space to moor a boat or two!

Further quay heading to the side dyke includes a landing stage perfect from which to launch paddle boards or kayaks or from which to sit and fish.

Located in a highly regarded cul-de-sac set away from the main road yet within walking distance of River Green with a number of riverside pubs and cafés, with Norwich city centre less than 1½ miles away and Norwich railway station even closer, approximately 1 mile away.

The property offers so much, and it needs to be seen to be fully appreciated. Equally well suited to be a generous family home or a perfectly placed second home or as an established multi-generational holiday let.

Contents are available by negotiation. There is no onward chain and it has been priced to allow the next owners to put their own stamp onto the property, making the most of the huge potential that is on offer.
