Set on the unspoilt banks of a private boat dyke in Thorpe‑St‑Andrew, this modern detached lodge offers low‑maintenance riverside living with full residential status. The open-plan living space and large fitted kitchen with integrated appliances make it easy to entertain indoors and out; the south-facing riverside garden and 40ft x 16ft private mooring are standout features for boating enthusiasts.
Built within the last two decades and finished to a contemporary specification, the home benefits from underfloor heating to the ground floor, sealed unit double glazing and high-quality oak doors and flooring. Practical systems include an oil-fired boiler, private borehole water supply and a modern treatment plant drainage system. Off-street parking for multiple vehicles and a sizeable plot add convenience and privacy.
The property has successfully operated as a holiday let, producing roughly £28,000 gross per year, so it will suit buyers seeking a main residence, a profitable second home or an investment. Easy road links to Norwich city centre and the southern bypass provide straightforward commuting and amenities access.
Buyers should note material considerations: the site is in a high flood-risk area, and the main heating fuel is oil. Broadband speeds are slow locally, and local crime stats are above average. The lodge is chain free and offered freehold, but systems such as the private borehole and treatment plant will require routine maintenance.
