Location
Old Lakenham Hall Drive is a quiet cul-de-sac located in the Old Lakenham area, situated south of Norwich city centre, offering convenient access to the city's amenities while retaining a suburban feel.

A key highlight of the location is the nearby Harford Bridge retail area, which provides a wide range of everyday shopping options. This includes Tesco and Asda supermarkets, along with a recently opened ikea, making the area particularly practical for both daily essentials and larger home purchases. Additional retail and leisure options can also be found at Riverside Retail Park, which is a short drive away.

Families benefit from several nearby schools, including primary schools within the Lakenham area and secondary schools accessible via a short drive or bus journey, making Old Lakenham Hall Drive a convenient choice for households with children. Healthcare facilities, such as gp practices and dental surgeries, are located throughout the surrounding neighbourhood, while the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital is within easy driving distance for more comprehensive medical care.

Transport links are strong. The area is well served by local bus routes, and the city centre is only a short drive away. Norwich railway station is also easily accessible for regional and national travel. Road connections are excellent, with the A47 close by, providing straightforward access in and out of the city, as well as quick links to surrounding areas.

Pedestrian and cycling routes connect Old Lakenham Hall Drive with nearby parks, riverside walks, leisure facilities, and community spaces, enhancing its appeal as a well-connected residential location.

Anti Money Laundering
By law, we are required to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all potential buyers and sellers, and we take this responsibility very seriously. In line with hmrc guidelines, our trusted partner, Coadjute, will securely manage these checks on our behalf. Once an offer is accepted (subject to contract), Coadjute will send a secure link for you to complete the biometric checks electronically. A non-refundable fee of £45+ VAT per person will apply for these checks, and Coadjute will handle the payment for this service. These anti-money laundering checks must be completed before we can send the memorandum of sale to the solicitors to confirm the sale.
