Riverdale is an exceptional waterside home, perfectly positioned in the heart of the picturesque riverside village of Hoveton. Nestled on a quiet backwater off the gentle curves of the River Bure, it boasts its own private mooring, offering direct access to the waterways and wildlife of the renowned Norfolk Broads.

Sympathetically designed to complement its idyllic setting, Riverdale blends contemporary style with a layout that maximises light, space, and views of the surrounding natural beauty. Set on a generous quarter-acre plot, the property is approached via Meadow Drive, a sought-after location, or by boat from the river Bure. A convenient in-and-out driveway provides ample off-road parking and access to a garage and electric car charger.

To the rear, a paved terrace extends onto beautifully maintained south-facing garden with lawns bordered by mature hedging and colourful, established flowerbeds. Towards the water’s edge, a workshop and summer house provide the perfect vantage points to relax and watch river life drift by. The private mooring is easily accessible, ideal for those seeking boating adventures or peaceful moments by the water.

Inside, the property offers versatile and spacious accommodation. There are three generous reception rooms, including a dining room and a family lounge, both opening directly to the garden. A feature of the house is the light and well-equipped kitchen offering a beautiful view of the garden and river. Beyond is a lobby giving direct access to the garage/workshop, the ground floor shower room and the terrace. Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, two with built-in storage. The main bedroom benefits from an en-suite, and there is a family bathroom.
