Riverside House is currently on the market for offers in excess of £650,000 and selling agents William H Brown Select describe it as occupying “a splendid position in an exclusive residential location.”

It has large, beautifully maintained parkland-style gardens that lead down to the banks of the River Wensum.

The gardens are a truly exceptional feature of the property and are divided into two sections with sweeping lawns, flower borders and shaped hedges. Together, they offer a real sense of grandeur and take full advantage of the Wensum Valley, with the river frontage, at the rear, stretching the whole width of the plot.
