External
This individual home stands on Halvergate Marshes, some 12,000 acres of managed marshland. Forming part of the Norfolk Broads National Park, the marshlands are bordered by Rivers Yare and Bure. The marshes, which are mainly used for grazing, include a large area designated as a SSSI. There are a number of garden sheds all with power and lighting.
The property is approached from Stone Road over an unadopted track and then through a five-bar gate onto its own driveway which provides plenty of parking and leads to the garages. These garages are currently used as storage and one of them houses the batteries and backup generator. Alongside the drive is the timber barn with double doors. The gardens wrap around the property with wide areas of lawn, numerous mature specimen trees and a mature orchard with apple, pear and plum trees. To the southern aspect a veranda provides a pleasant seating area with views over the garden to the marshes and Muttons Mill, a great spot to observe the abundance of wildlife that visits the garden. Alongside the veranda is a paved terrace with French doors from the kitchen/living room and a vegetable garden. To the east of the main garden across the track is a further area of garden, known as Robin Wood, an enclosed dell offering another tranquil spot in this outstanding location.
In total the gardens and grounds extend to around 1 acre (stms).
