Parkwood, Meadow Drive, Hoveton, Norfolk

Parkwood is an exceptional waterside residence, perfectly positioned in the heart of the picturesque riverside village of Hoveton. Tucked away along a peaceful backwater just off the gentle curves of the River Bure, the property benefits from its own private mooring, providing direct access to the iconic waterways and wildlife of the Norfolk Broads.

Thoughtfully designed to complement its idyllic surroundings, Parkwood combines contemporary style with a layout that maximises natural light, space and tranquil water views. Set within grounds approaching half an acre, the property can be accessed via the sought-after Meadow Drive or directly by boat from the river itself. A sweeping in-and-out driveway offers ample off-road parking, alongside access to a garage.

To the rear, a paved terrace opens onto beautifully maintained, south-east facing gardens, where generous lawns are framed by mature hedging and vibrant, established planting. Closer to the water’s edge, a boathouse, private mooring and slipway offer effortless access to the river for boats, kayaks, paddleboards and other small watercraft, while also creating a tranquil spot to relax and enjoy the ever-changing waterside scenery.

Internally, the accommodation is both spacious and versatile. Three generous reception areas include a bathroom, a kitchen dining room, a family lounge and an adjoining garden room. The dining space and garden room both open directly onto the terrace, creating a seamless connection between indoor living and the waterside setting. A rear lobby provides access to the garage, utility room and ground floor shower room.

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying a private balcony overlooking the river and a walk-in wardrobe. A family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Parkwood offers the perfect balance of tranquil waterside living and everyday convenience. Hoveton’s vibrant centre lies just half a mile away, offering a range of shops, cafés, transport links and rail services to the historic city of Norwich. The sandy beaches of the North Norfolk coastline are also within a 30-minute drive, making this a superb base for enjoying the very best of both river and coast
