St Olaves | Norfolk F St Olaves | Norfolk F SERENITY AND SCENERY “Wind your way down the close, near to the river with the woodland around. It’s so private and so peaceful here with bird- song the only sound. A year-round community yet with a holiday feel, the Broads on the doorstep and the coast down the road, the house so beautifully renovated your heart will steal, the stunning reception and master suite the highlights at this welcoming abode.” • Detached Chalet Style Home • Popular Village Location • Modern Kitchen Breakfast Room • Separate Utility Room • Spacious Sitting Room • 4 Bedrooms, Master with En-Suite • Family Bathroom • Off-Road Parking and Garage • Garden with Patio Area • The property extends to 1980.35sq.ft. • EPC Rating E This modern home has been updated and extended by the owners, creating a charming property with a wonderfully relaxing feel that’s easy to live in and low maintenance too. It’s set at the end of a quiet road in the Broadland village of St Olaves, close to the river and the leisure facilities that are found dotted around this area. With glorious countryside on the doorstep and the Broads and the beach nearby, this is the ideal base from which to explore all that this area is renowned for and to enjoy the relaxed lifestyle you’re after. A Dream Come True The owners of this lovely home had lived in Norfolk before and always hankered after a home in this village. It’s close to their grown-up children who now have their own families and near to the river. Much of this area can be quite remote but you’re very well connected here as the village benefits from the only main road crossing over this stretch of river, so it’s easy to head east to Great Yarmouth or west to the pretty town of Beccles. “Although it’s in the Broads and popular with tourists, we don’t have any holiday parks in the village, so we benefit from a choice of excellent pubs, a couple of which are in walking distance, but we don’t get disturbed by an influx of people over the summer. There’s a year-round community here,” explain the owners. Making Memories With Family It’s very important to the owners that their home works for larger gatherings as this is the place where their extended family come for Christmas and other special occasions. The reception room is incredibly spacious and impressive, with plenty of room for dining and seating areas – it accommodates a good number of people in great comfort. The owners have extended the kitchen too, so what was before rather cut off from the rest of the house, now functions well in its own right, with a lovely breakfast area where people can sit and chat, plus doors onto the garden so the grandchildren can wander in and out freely. “Everyone loves to come here,” smile the owners, “They don’t want us to leave!” Working Well For Every Scenario It’s incredibly quiet here. There’s no passing traffic as you only have a couple of other houses past this one and there’s woodland to the rear which keeps it even more peaceful and private. It also encourages the birdlife and the owners have placed feeders in the front and back gardens to ensure as many as possible stop by. “Our grandchildren love spotting squirrels too,” they explain. It’s been a very happy home to the owners and has worked brilliantly both for them as a couple and when the family descend. There’s certainly plenty of room for a large family, while the ground floor bedroom and bathroom mean this could also work well for someone with limited mobility. Upstairs, the master suite is very special, with a beautiful bedroom with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams making a wonderful retreat. “We have extended to create a breakfast room opening onto the kitchen and to the garden.” “Our family live nearby and we often host everyone here. It’s a great house for social occasions.” “We love our master bedroom – we’ve been spoilt and we’ll struggle to find another as nice as this!” “We are within the village and can walk to the pub but we’re tucked away too.” “We always wanted to live in this village and it’s more than lived up to our expectations.” Local Authority: Great Yarmouth Borough Council Council Tax Band: E Agents Notes Oil Central Heating Mains Drainage These particulars, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

  • Norton Marshes to Haddiscoe Dismantled
    This area inspired the artist Sir J. A. Arnesby 16 Yare Valley - Norton Marshes to Brown (1866-1955) who lived each summer Haddiscoe Dismantled Railway at The White House, Haddiscoe. Herald of the Night, Sir J.A.Arnesby-Brown Why is this area special? This is a vast area of largely drained marshland which lies to the south of the Rivers Yare and Waveney. It traditionally formed part of the parishes of Norton (Subcourse), Thurlton, Thorpe and Haddiscoe along with a detached part of Raveningham. It would have had a direct connection to what is now known as Haddiscoe Island, prior to the construction of the New Cut which connected the Yare and Waveney together to avoid having to travel across Breydon Water. There are few houses within this marshland area. Those that exist are confined to those locations 27 where there were, or are transport links across NORFOLK the rivers. The remainder of the settlements have 30 28 developed in a linear way hugging the edges of the southern river valley side. 22 31 23 29 The Haddiscoe Dam road provides the main 24 26 connection north-south from Haddiscoe village to 25 NORWICH St Olaves. 11 20 Gt YARMOUTH 10 12 19 21 A journey on the train line from Norwich to 14 9 Lowestoft which follows the line of the New Cut 13 15 18 16 and then hugs the northern side of the Waveney 17 Valley provides a glorious way to view this area as 8 7 public rights of way into the middle of the marshes LOWESTOFT 6 4 (other than the fully navigable river) are few and 2 3 1 5 far between.

  • Great Yarmouth Sites
    Great Yarmouth sites MIN 203 - land north of Welcome Pit, Burgh Castle Site Characteristics • The 4.38 hectare site is within the parish of Burgh Castle • The estimated sand and gravel resource at the site is 280,000 tonnes • The proposer of the site has given a potential start date of 2021 and estimated the extraction rate to be 20,000 tonnes per annum. Based on this information the full mineral resource at the site could be extracted within fourteen years which would be within the plan period. • The site is proposed by Folkes Plant and Aggregates Ltd as an extension to an existing site. • The site is currently in agricultural use and the Agricultural Land Classification scheme classifies the land as being Grade 3 • The site is 3.3km from Great Yarmouth and 3.9km from Gorleston-on-Sea which are the nearest urban areas. M203.1 Amenity: The nearest residential property is 237m from the site boundary. There are four sensitive receptors within 250m of the site boundary. A caravan holiday park is adjacent to the site boundary. The nearest settlements are Burgh Castle, which is about 870 metres to the north and Belton, about 950 metres to the south. Even without mitigation, adverse dust impacts from sand and gravel sites are uncommon beyond 250 metres from the nearest dust generating activities. The greatest impacts will be within 100 metres of a source, if uncontrolled. A planning application for mineral extraction at this site would need to include noise and dust assessments and mitigation measures to deal appropriately with any amenity impacts.

The heathland today, where it is not under the plough, is either covered in coniferous plantation or put to various leisure uses including golf courses and holiday parks. There is one relict gorse-covered, open access area at Belton. The gradient of the valley sides tend to be more gentle here than in the adjacent LCA 8, other than at Burgh Castle Roman Fort where instead of the usual marsh and peat fringe, a deposit of glacial till surrounded by sand sits close to the river.
