SITUATION
Nestled along the River Wensum, Taverham lies just six miles from the heart of Norwich and offers an ideal balance between town and country living. The village boasts abundant green space and direct access to the historic Marriott’s Way, a scenic footpath and cycle route that stretches between the market town of Aylsham and Norwich.
A notable local landmark, Taverham Mill, was once a prominent paper producer whose output was used for The Times newspaper, the Oxford English Dictionary, and even Bank of England banknotes. Since the mill’s closure in 1899, the 100-acre site has been transformed into a picturesque nature reserve featuring walking trails and four lakes popular with anglers fishing for carp, tench, roach, perch, and pike.
Taverham offers an excellent range of local amenities, including a well-equipped village hall hosting a variety of activities, a library, and educational facilities for all age groups—ranging from primary schools to a sixth form, along with the independent Langley Prep School. The village also offers a doctor’s surgery, veterinary practice, pharmacy, dentist, scout hut, public house, and a good selection of shops and food outlets.
Norwich city centre is easily accessible and offers a rich mix of shopping, dining, and cultural experiences. Highlights include the magnificent Norwich Cathedral, located in The Close by the River Wensum, as well as a wide array of restaurants, wine bars, leisure facilities, and both state and private schools.
Transportation links are excellent: Norwich’s mainline railway station—approximately 1.8 miles from the property—provides direct services to London Liverpool Street and regular connections to Cambridge. The Southern Bypass (A47) offers easy access westward to the Midlands and south via the A11 and M11 to London. To the north, Norwich International Airport provides regular domestic and European flights, with onward worldwide connections.
