Introduction
Welcome to Riverside Island Marina, Isleham, a unique combination of Swedish style waterside chalets and marina. The complex is set in woodlands, with a one mile circular walk around the island, wandering through shaded tree-lined paths. Over one hundred lodges nestle in the tree-lined inlets, each with its own water frontage and guaranteed moorings. Moorings are available for short and long term periods, both for boat storage and for live-aboards. Electrical hookup, water, LPG and diesel are all available. This highly desirable lodge is situated on the sought after Isleham Marina and is available for either all year residential use or occasional leisure use. This lodge occupies a lakeside position with spectacular views over the marina to the front and the river Lark to the rear. The property has been raised to create two additional rooms on the ground floor with full head height and both the lounge and veranda enjoy the elevated position overlooking the lake while the bedroom to the rear enjoys an outlook over the river and field beyond. The Lodge is offered on a freehold basis, includes a private boat mooring and comes with fishing rights all year round on the marina which includes approximately one mile of River bank. The lodge includes a vaulted main reception room with solid wood flooring and benefits from an additional occasional loft bedroom and further benefits from an electric central heating system which feeds the radiators.
