Upstairs are two further double bedrooms, both benefiting from walk-in wardrobes, together with a bathroom fitted with both bath and separate shower.

The property's appeal is further enhanced by its proximity to the riverside villages of Wroxham and Hoveton, widely known as the Capital of the Norfolk Broads.
