A Rare Waterside Retreat in the Heart of the Norfolk Broads
Set within approximately two acres of idyllic Broadland countryside, Holland Cottage is an enchanting brick and pan-tiled waterside residence enjoying extensive private moorings and spectacular views along its own 100-metre dyke leading from Womack Water to the River Thurne. Occupying a truly magical position within the Broads National Park, the property offers an exceptional lifestyle for boating enthusiasts, nature lovers and those seeking peace and privacy in one of Norfolk’s most sought-after locations.
Originally formed from a pair of traditional marshman’s cottages, the house has evolved through sympathetic extensions to create a substantial and highly versatile family home full of character and charm. The welcoming accommodation includes an entrance hall, shower room, study, comfortable lounge, music room, dining area and a spacious kitchen/breakfast room designed for relaxed entertaining and family gatherings.
Two separate staircases rise to the first floor, where the accommodation offers tremendous flexibility, including a sitting room or optional bedroom together with five further bedrooms and two bathrooms, making the property equally suited as a permanent residence, multi-generational home or exceptional holiday retreat.
Outside, the lifestyle appeal continues with a brick and timber orangery/conservatory overlooking the grounds, a utility room with WC, attached double garage and an additional 20-foot timber garage providing excellent storage for boats, equipment or workshop use.
Approached via a quiet lane, Holland Cottage enjoys a wonderfully tranquil setting whilst remaining within easy walking distance of Womack Water and the centre of Ludham village, with its excellent range of local amenities including village stores, butcher, florist, pub and restaurant, primary school, church, doctor’s surgery and post office.
The extensive moorings provide direct access to the rivers Thurne, Ant and Bure, placing some of the finest cruising, sailing, fishing and wildlife habitats of the Norfolk Broads quite literally on your doorstep.
