Staitheway House, Staitheway Road, Wroxham, Norfolk NR12

Staitheway House sits proudly in the heart of the picturesque riverside village of Wroxham, nestled among a distinguished cluster of late Victorian homes. Built in the latter part of the 19th century, this exceptional residence lies within an area now celebrated for its special architectural and historical significance. The property stands prominently on Staitheway Road, a former country track that once linked The Avenue to the river. Today, the lane retains its natural character, flanked by tall trees and mature hedging, gently winding towards the tranquil waters of the Broads.

Echoing the elegance of its era, Staitheway House retains many original features while benefitting from thoughtful and sympathetic modernisations. Contemporary additions blend seamlessly with period charm, creating a home that is at once stylish, practical, and generously proportioned—an ideal sanctuary for family life or a luxurious countryside retreat.

Set within a generous plot the home is approached via electric gates, opening onto a sweeping driveway offering ample off-road parking. The grounds include beautifully maintained side lawns, a garage workshop, and a contemporary cedar-clad lodge with composite decking—ideal as guest accommodation, a home office, games room, or studio. To the rear, a private enclosed terrace overlooks a meticulously landscaped lawn, bordered by mature trees and shrubs, offering both privacy and serenity.

Boasting nearly 3,300 square feet of beautifully appointed living space (including the lodge), the home is arranged over three floors, comprising four reception rooms, six bedrooms, and three bathrooms. Every room reflects the care and attention that has gone into preserving the home’s character while enhancing it for modern living. Whether you're seeking a prestigious family residence, a tranquil country escape, or a potential holiday let or B&B venture, this property offers versatility and opportunity in equal measure.

Life at Staitheway House is enriched by its peaceful yet connected location. The water’s edge is just a short stroll away, and local amenities are only 600 metres from the doorstep. Both the Primary and High Schools, as well as the Norfolk Yacht Club, are less than a mile away. For those seeking wider connections, the city of Norwich, the Norfolk Broads, and the North Norfolk coastline are all within a 30-minute drive, offering the very best of Norfolk's countryside, coast, and culture.
