About this Property

Truly one of a kind, a huge dry boathouse occupying a commanding position on the banks of Oulton Broad combining generous and flexible family accommodation with an almost industrial style and size boathouse/workshop facility further complemented by a ground floor annex style accommodation, an integral double garage, ample off road parking and four private moorings.

Built in the 1980s of brick and block construction over a steel frame, this remarkable property was originally designed with partial commercial use in mind and that potential still very much exists with the cavernous boathouse measuring approximately 53ft x 33ft, with two large roller doors giving good access and three phase electricity and water already in place, ensuring that the scope for potential applications is considerable.

The ground floor also offers a suite of rooms that could be incorporated into the primary accommodation or used independently as a spacious self-contaned annex or letting unit, with a secondary kitchen already established.

The ground floor continues with an office/study and an integral double garage with a mezzanine style room above.

The first floor provides sizeable and versatile family friendly accommodation with an impressive open plan, triple aspect living space measuring 30ft x 20ft.

A stunning multi-zone living area with a fully fitted kitchen, walk in pantry, Parquet flooring and a large balcony offering incredible panoramic views out over Oulton Broad.

The master bedroom is also huge, measuring 20’11” x 19;9”. Dual aspect with ample fitted and built in storage and served by a generous four-piece en-suite bathroom.

The remaining three bedrooms are all doubles and are served by a family shower room.

The plot can be accessed by vehicles via two separate entrances, ensuring good accessibility and ample private off road parking.

Immediately in front of the property are two substantial floating pontoons providing the capacity to moor four sizeable boats with Oulton Broad providing access to the entire Norfolk Broads network as well as being well placed for access out to sea via Lake Lothing and Lowestoft.

Oulton Broad provides a comprehensive range of amenities with a selection of shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants available nearby, Nicholas Everitt Park offers waterside walks and sports facilities and the village is served by two railway stations providing connections to Norwich and Ipswich.

The property offers an abundance of space and a wealth of potential and possibilities.

This has been the third time I have used their services as both seller and buyer. Their knowledge of the Broads property market is second to none and I have no hesitation in highly recommending Waterside to anyone wishing to buy or sell in the region. ”

Mr and Mrs Gledhill

“Having recently dealt with Waterside estate agents I’d like to share my experience. From start to finish Callum, especially was incredibly informative and great fun to deal with, even on a rainy day house viewing. The team kept me in the loop at every juncture. I highly recommend Waterside as the whole experience was smooth sailing, (no pun intended). Thank you all.”

Mr Chamberlayne

Mr Alcraft

When exchange was delayed he was tenacious in chasing the conveyancers and excellent at keeping us updated. Equally, if he was out of the office, others in the office seemed to know the idiosyncrasies of our house purchase too. We are very grateful for the professionalism and care of the team”

Ms Whiting

Mr Lawrence

“Our experience with Waterside Agency was excellent and we can’t recommend you highly enough! Callum went over and above his call of duty, even to the extent of explaining the complicated jargon used by Solicitors! His communication with us was superb, keeping us updated every step of the way. We really appreciate the friendly, helpful and very professional service, which all of your team provided. You all deserve 10 stars!! Thank you! ”
