Welcome to The Boathouse, an incredible holiday rental or second home in a sought-after waterside location overlooking The Weirs in South Walsham. This exceptional 3-bedroom house embodies waterside living. The property includes a mooring and an impressive 40-ft boat shed, providing an unparalleled lifestyle for boat enthusiasts and water lovers.

Location

For those who appreciate being close to the river, South Walsham provides direct access to the River Bure, ideal for boating and fishing. The nearby Fairhaven Woodland and Water Garden also offers 130 acres of stunning woodland and waterways, perfect for walking, birdwatching, and exploring nature. Combining modern conveniences with proximity to the river, South Walsham is a prime location for both comfort and outdoor activities.

South Walsham is surrounded by several notable towns, each offering unique amenities. Acle, 5 miles southeast, provides a variety of shops, a recreation center, and a railway station. Wroxham, 6 miles northwest, is a boating hub with numerous hire services and the large Roys of Wroxham store. Blofield, 4 miles southwest, features local shops, a pub, and a primary school. Reedham, 7 miles south, is known for its historic swing bridge, riverside pubs, and Reedham Ferry.

The Property

From the moment you approach this remarkable home, its character is evident. The thatched roof, recently serviced in 2024, adds a touch of traditional appeal, accentuating the residence's allure. A pristine Dutch plastic quay heading with a generous 25-year warranty ensures quality and durability, providing good access to the mooring and boathouse.

Upon entry, it's evident that the interior has been designed to make the most of the property's fantastic riverside location. The living spaces can be found on the first floor, with scenic views as a captivating backdrop to everyday life. The kitchen offers an array of cabinets and dining space and leads to an internal hall that flows to the bathroom, WC, and bedroom.

The lounge area provides access to the balcony, offering the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the almost panoramic river and countryside views. The other two bedrooms, which also face the river, enjoy views, too.

Off-road parking for up to 3 vehicles ensures convenience and security for residents and guests.

Of particular note is the well-established history of holiday lets for this residence. With holiday let use only, this property presents a lucrative opportunity for those seeking a profitable investment in the hospitality sector. Small business relief on rates is an added advantage, making this an even more attractive prospect. However, if you’re just looking for a quiet second home for the family to enjoy, this property would also be an amazing family investment.

The property is constructed of wooden wall and flooring with a thatched roof that was serviced in 2024 and installed in 2021.

Welcome to Minors & Brady, your local, independent estate agents. If you're thinking of buying, selling, or letting, then you've come to the right place. We were recently awarded first place in 'best estate agency office' in the whole of Norfolk and Suffolk and we came third in the whole of the U.K. at the ESTAS, the UK's largest estate agency awards hosted by Phil Spencer from 'Location Location'. Our story is an interesting one. Jamie Minors and Alex Brady were passionate estate agents who had relentlessly worked their way up from Trainee Negotiators, to Senior Valuers, to Branch Managers for other firms; Pymm & Co and Haart respectively. Both Jamie and Alex had a long term plan to build their way of buying and selling via their own brand to ensure their same ethos was practiced daily. As competing rivals in the property industry, but friends outside of business, they coincidentally both realised they were due to set up their own firms in the same area. After much discussion, they both realised they wanted the same thing; to deliver the best possible service to all buyers and sellers across Norfolk, with one 'super team' under one brand. From there, as they say, the rest is history. Minors & Brady is now an award winning estate agent offering an unrivalled level of service in our area. Our key strength is that an owner of the business oversees all aspects of buying and selling, 7 days a week.
