Norwich

New-builds in Norfolk cover town, city and country

In the East of England, sleepy Norfolk is a tranquil and largely rural county where most of the action takes place in the historic city and county town of Norwich, the popular holiday resort of Great Yarmouth, and the bustling market town of King's Lynn.

Homebuyers in Norfolk have a good choice of both rural and urban developments to suit different life stages - from smart one-bedroom city apartments to spacious family homes in the country.
