Point House is a substantial period detached home in the heart of Barton Turf, offered chain free and set within the Norfolk Broads National Park. The house sits on a large corner plot with an established, south-facing cottage garden — mature shrubs, sun terraces, greenhouse and timber shed create private outdoor space ideal for gardeners and families who value outdoor living.
Internally the layout is flexible: five reception rooms on the ground floor and three good-sized bedrooms upstairs (principal with en-suite) plus a study/fourth bedroom. The scale and arrangement suit family life, entertaining or a home-working setup. There is clear potential for a thoughtful modernisation to open up spaces or reconfigure rooms to contemporary standards.
Buyers should note this is a period property that needs renovation. The house has solid brick walls (no known insulation), oil-fired heating, and double glazing of unknown installation date. These features mean improvement works are likely to be required to improve energy performance and reduce running costs. Council tax is above average.
Practical positives include a double garage with adjoining workshop, generous parking and very low local crime. The hamlet location provides a tranquil rural setting with excellent mobile and fast broadband, while nearby Wroxham, Neatishead and Norwich provide shops, schools and services. The coast is under ten miles away, and there is no flooding risk indicated for the site.
