Location and Transport

Hethersett is strategically positioned roughly halfway between the city of Norwich and the market town of Wymondham. Road connections are facilitated via the nearby A11, which provides a direct bypass link towards Cambridge. Norwich city centre is accessible via an estimated 15-20 minute drive. Public transport is served by frequent local bus routes, including the First Bus Service 11 (Pink Line), with stops located on Harness Maker Way and Coachmaker Way within the development. Direct bus services run to Norwich, with journey times to St Stephens Square taking approximately 18 minutes and Norwich Train Station taking around 32 minutes. Residents can claim an incentive of 8-weeks free bus travel to Norwich and Wymondham. The Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is also less than an hour's drive away.

Local Amenities and Education

The village has an established local community and a selection of local shops, including a butcher, a farm shop, and a Post Office at Oak Square. The area is well-regarded for its commitment to sports and has various local clubs, including Crusaders Rugby Club and Hethersett Hawks Cycle Speedway Club. Local schools serving the development include Hethersett VC Primary School and Hethersett Academy, both located approximately 0.4 miles away.

Practical Information and Developer Context

As of the current date, properties are available in the range of 2 to 5 bedrooms, with specific prices dependent on plot and house type, generally starting from £259,000. The developer, Persimmon Homes, holds a 5-star status from the Home Builder’s Federation (HBF), indicating that over 90% of their customers would recommend them. However, prospective buyers should note the developer has faced historical scrutiny regarding build quality, including an independent review in 2020 citing issues such as fire-stopping cavity barriers, although the company has stated a commitment to improving quality and customer care since then. Specific incentives such as Deposit Boost (5% contribution), Part Exchange, and Shared Ownership (via Flagship Homes) are available on selected plots; contact the developer for the most current plot availability and viewing arrangements.
