So....we’re looking to move away from London and have decided to move to the outskirts of Norwich....close enough to get a bus to town but out enough to enjoy the quiet.
What is the nicest area to look at? We’ve been looking at Thorpe St Andrew and Dussingdale so far
Thanks

"carrow rd area nice new apartments, 10 mins walk from the city, and right near the mighty ncfc x  "
We don’t want an apartment, we have a son and a dog. A house is important to us and preferably detached. Football also is of no interest  sorry |

We didn’t like Diss at all, Wymondham is ok. We drive so it’s not an issue but want our son to be able to have his own independence and go do things with his friends as it’s boring being too far out for kids growing up.  |

"Cringleford, Eton and Newmarket Road area perhaps? Was traditionally the better appointed property area of town.
I hear good things about Trowse as well. "
I shall have a look at these thanks |

"Norwich is a fantastic place to move to!"
Hence why we want to go, but we don’t know the area too well to know where is nice and where is not so nice |

If your still looking for a place in Norwich, horsford and hellesdon are good little villages but keep away from Mile cross |

It really all depends on how good you think the busses are. I live in south Walsham and the busses are poor. However parking is cheap enough if I need to go to the city. Some of the villages are great as are some of the estates. So the estate in Taverham is popular. Yes it’s big, but reasonably well connected and literally a short walk to woodlands. Likewise Lingwood is up an coming. Has a small train station and reasonably regular trains (I think).
Hope that helps x |

Everything is on hold at the moment with COVID. We have been looking around Acle or within a few miles of there. |

Acle is a great location - when it all becomes more stable feel free to drop me a message if you need help / info. As that’s really close I’d even do you a video tour upon request.
All the very best

Can jump on the train from Hoveton/Wroxham very easily.
Thorpe end is nice a friend lives on the green used to practically live at their house so I could party in Norwich. |

Hi,
As a few Fabbers have all ready mentioned the north side of Norwich is perfect, Easy access to the north coastal beaches for dog walking and airport , only problem u might have is houses in the Drayton/Taverham are go very quickly !!!! at the mo.
Good luck any way . |
