Boatyard and commercial premises with river frontage and development potential

A rare opportunity to acquire a well-established boatyard occupying approximately 0.5 acres (stms) in the picturesque riverside village of St Olaves, enjoying extensive frontage to the River Waveney and offering exceptional potential for a variety of commercial, marine and residential uses, subject to any necessary consents.

The site includes an office building, most recently utilised as living accommodation, together with a large boat shed incorporating an adjoining office, a separate workshop and storage building, and a slipway providing direct access to the river.

Further enhancing the site's appeal is the benefit of planning permission for an additional workshop, together with an extensive area of river frontage offering existing moorings and a former basin which provides the potential to create additional moorings, subject to any necessary consents.

The property benefits from ample on-site parking and generous external storage areas, making it suitable for continued marine use, commercial occupation, or alternative redevelopment opportunities, subject to planning.

Properties of this nature are seldom available, combining a unique waterside setting with existing income and development potential in one of the Norfolk Broads' most desirable locations.
