From stunning coastal locations to the most sought after streets in the city, Norfolk has plenty to offer those looking for a new home. But some may have a bigger budget than others.
In June this year, the most expensive Norfolk property sold for a staggering £1.5m, according to recent data released by the Land Registry.
Situated on the eastern edge of Burnham Market, on Overy Road, “The Gardens” had been operating as a holiday home for several years, offering a “beautifully presented” and substantial six-bedroom Georgian townhouse.
On Sowerbys website, where the property was listed, it writes: “The Gardens has been operated as an incredibly successful holiday home for several years as it provides the perfect blend of space, flexibility and accommodation for multi-generational family groups and all just a few minutes' walk from all the culinary and retail delights that this village has to offer.
“It could of course continue to provide a generous income or perhaps might now become a more permanent home from home.”
The property is currently available to rent through Sowerbys Holiday Cottages. For more information call. 01328 730880.
Coming in at number two is “Street Hill Farm” which sold for £875,000 in June.

It is described as a “beautiful modern rural farmhouse” with five acres of gardens and paddocks with views in the heart of the Broads.
Online it writes: “With space for a large family, this home has so much to draw you in. It sits right on the edge of a charming Broadland village, close to the water and to glorious countryside but with amenities a stone’s throw from your front door.
“It comes with a thriving and established caravan site as part of the five-acre plot, so you can enjoy an income from day one.
“Built by the owner as her long-term home, it’s never before been on the market – making this a truly unique opportunity.”

“Plenty of room for a family or for entertaining, a sunny private garden and an annexe with flexibility, all lovingly maintained – a feast for the eyes.
“Walk to the river, the marshes or park, play tennis or golf or go hit the shops. You have everything here you could possibly need – whatever you’re after, this home has the lot.”
