Commanding an imposing waterside position on the banks of the River Waveney, in the heart of the market town of Beccles, the gateway to the southern broads, this handsome detached house with its attractive terrace, provides an ideal holiday base for fishing, river trips, or a place to simply relax and watch the waterborne world go by.
