Features and description

  • Freehold
A rare opportunity to own a freehold residential mooring including a 50ft houseboat and 3/4 acre plot of land (Sts) with parking in an idyllic location in Melton, Woodbridge on the river deben. The mooring's unique end of row position provides spectacular undulating views across the river Deben towards National Trust countryside & Sutton Hoo.

Woodbridge is a vibrant market town with fantastic shopping, educational and recreational facilities, situated next to the beautiful Deben river.

Avail has a privileged vantage point with panoramic views of the River Deben and the historic Sutton Hoo estate and beautiful National Trust countryside. The river, recognized for its outstanding beauty, is internationally important for wintering birds and has national protection for both breeding and wintering birds.

Woodbridge has a thriving centre with numerous shops, restaurants, leisure facilities, a theatre, cinema and marina on the banks of the River Deben. Ipswich, the county town of Suffolk, has a direct line service to London’s Liverpool Street station. There is excellent schooling within Woodbridge with Farlingaye in the State sector and Woodbridge school & The Abbey in the private sector. The coast is nearby with Orford and Aldeburgh being a great attraction to the sailing enthusiast as is the river Deben and the home of the famous Aldeburgh music festival is based at Snape just over 10 miles away.

The residential boat is an old Scottish fishing vessel and is self contained offering a sitting space with views across the river, a bedroom, kitchen, shower room, toilet and outside deck all in need of extensive repair and modernising.

The mooring can accommodate a 100ft boat and additional boat space either side.

Its unique position on the river means you do not have neighbouring boats to your left giving stunning views across the river and National Trust countryside.

There is a pontoon and walkway to the land with steps down to a bridge over a spring water stream.

The 3/4 acre plot has parking, range of trees, various fruit trees including apple, Conference pear and Victorian plum. There is a grass area, solar panels and access to Melton over the railway crossing next to the Melton Boat Club.

The land could lend itself to an air b&b opportunity with ample space for several shepherd huts or yurts subject to planning.

The boat produces its own electricity via a wind turbine and a generator with solar panels on the land. Propane gas cylinders supplies power for the water heater. Water is sourced from a spring water well.
