3 bedroom detached house for sale

This beautifully presented riverside home offers far more than first meets the eye. Set in a peaceful and private location, it has been in the same family since it was built in the 1970s and underwent a thoughtful renovation and extension in 2008. Today, it provides a comfortable and versatile layout, perfectly suited as a permanent residence or a second home retreat.

The house welcomes you with a glass-fronted entrance porch leading into a bright reception hall with bespoke shelving and natural wood finishes. At the heart of the home is an impressive open-plan living space, filled with light from its dual aspect and large glazed sliding doors that open onto a raised terrace. From here, you can take in uninterrupted views across the garden, mooring, and open countryside. This sociable living area combines a sitting room with a wood burner, a dining space, and a fully fitted kitchen with a wide range of quality units and integrated appliances.

Practical features include a generous utility room, a side porch, and internal access to the garage and workshop. The ground floor also offers two bedrooms, one with direct access to the garden, as well as a stylish four-piece bathroom with underfloor heating.

An oak staircase rises to the first floor, where a light and airy study area enjoys elevated views through Velux windows. The master bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, sweeping outlooks over the mooring and fields, and its own en-suite shower room.

Adding to the property’s flexibility is a detached garden room, which can serve as a guest annexe, studio, office, or gym. This self-contained space includes a living/bedroom area with large sliding doors opening to decked seating areas, a kitchenette, shower room, and a bunk room.

Outside, a gravelled driveway provides ample parking and access to the garage/workshop. The front garden is laid to lawn with attractive planting and has a electric car charger port. The rear garden stretches down towards the river. Here, a raised terrace steps down to a long lawn with wildflower planting and mature trees, leading to a private quay-headed mooring of around 50ft with a slipway, shore power, and useful storage sheds.

The property is fitted with modern eco-friendly features, including an air source heat pump supplying radiators and underfloor heating, solar panels, and sealed unit double glazing.

Tucked away in the pretty village of Dilham, at the end of navigation but with direct access to the entire Broads network, the location combines peace and seclusion with convenience. Stalham, North Walsham, Wroxham, and Horning are all within easy reach, offering local amenities, shops, and restaurants.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a deceptively spacious and versatile waterside home with private mooring, presented in excellent condition and ready to enjoy.
