SPACE

Moving to the countryside has lots of benefits, including the opportunity to purchase a bigger home for a lower price.

Consider what your priorities are as extra space is not always a positive if it is not going to be used.

GARDEN

Similarly, the further into the countryside you go, you may find more properties with lots of land, such as fields. If this is not what you want, communicate this to your estate agent at the start.

However, if you do have green fingers, moving to the countryside can offer a wonderful lifestyle change.

LOCATION

Some areas of Norfolk are more remote than others.

It is recommended to decide how close you want to be to a city or town before you start house hunting.

There’s a whole spectrum of options from isolated to small village to market town to the outskirts of a bigger place.

TRANSPORT

Another thing to consider regarding priorities is transport. Can you walk anywhere from your new property, or are you happy to be driving all the time?

What can kids do locally, and is there any public transport when they want to go further afield?

COMMUTING

There’s always a balance between property prices and proximity to commuter routes, whether major road or rail links.

86.8% of properties in Norwich are within a 200-metre walk from a bus or train, however this percentage decreases in surrounding towns and villages.

COMMUNITY

One huge benefit of smaller towns and villages is the community aspect.

It may be worth researching local clubs and social spots when choosing an area to house-hunt.

SECOND HOME

Not sure if you’re ready to commit to full-time living in Norfolk? A second home could be an option for you.

For example, these modern, luxurious holiday lodges in Mundesley are available for sale from £200,000+
