Buying in Norwich
With a rich history that dates back to the Roman Empire, Norwich is a city that perfectly embodies charm, character and entertainment. Situated in the East of England, Norwich has historically been associated with all things literature and art, and that is a reputation that lives on to this day. The city continues to be involved with medieval history, with a Shakespeare Festival and outdoor theatre that performs comedy and drama throughout the summer.
Well-known today for its fantastic independent shopping, Norwich is constantly innovating thanks to its student population. The city’s unconventional spirit is perhaps due to its remote location, but with all the amenities you need, as well as picture-postcard looks, Norwich is a great place to call home.
