The Location

Howard Street sits on the edge of Norwich’s historic core, giving you that easy, walk‑everywhere connection to the city while still feeling slightly tucked away from the busiest streets. It’s a setting shaped by converted warehouses, independent businesses and the cultural energy of the Riverside and St Stephens areas, with the city centre typically reached in under ten minutes on foot.

Everyday amenities are close at hand: Riverside Retail Park offers a large Morrisons, while Sainsbury’s at Queens Road and Tesco Express on Prince of Wales Road provide convenient supermarket options. Green space is woven into the neighbourhood too, with the riverside paths, Whitlingham Country Park and the landscaped grounds around Norwich Cathedral offering places to unwind outdoors.

Families benefit from several schools within easy reach, including Notre Dame High School, Charles Darwin Primary Academy and Norwich School. The University of East Anglia sits around three miles away, reachable by bus or bike, and Norwich Airport is roughly a fifteen‑minute drive. The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital is also straightforward to reach, making the location practical as well as central.

Transport links are strong: Norwich Station is a short walk away for direct rail services to London Liverpool Street, Cambridge and the coast, while regular bus routes run along nearby Thorpe Road and Prince of Wales Road. The A47 and A140 are easily accessed for wider Norfolk travel.

Lifestyle here leans towards convenience and culture: cafés, gyms, cinemas, riverside walks and the city’s theatres are all close enough to fold naturally into daily routines. Howard Street offers a base that feels connected, practical and urban, with Norwich’s best amenities sitting comfortably within reach.
