Why Move to Fakenham
Voted the seventh best place to live in the country by Country Life magazine, Fakenham is a historic and attractive Norfolk market town on the river Wensum.
Often referred to as the ‘Gateway to the North Norfolk coast’, the town is well placed half-way between Norwich and Kings Lynn with excellent transport connections serving both.
Fakenham is full of pretty brick-and-flint faced buildings, narrow alleyways and side streets. Its weekly market which began in 1250, is a popular place to shop, meet and socialise.
The town has a village feel and many people make it home because of the old-fashioned community character it provides. There are plenty of festivals to take part in such as the annual Duck Race, the Harley Davidson motorbike rally, Gin and Beer festival, and the Fakenham Racecourse
Surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside just a stone’s throw from the Norfolk coast, Fakenham is an ideal place to take advantage of the best of coast and countryside living.
Fakenham highlights include:
From homely cafes and takeaways to restaurants and pubs, the town has a small ‘village vibe’ mixed with city amenities including several large supermarkets and a weekly market.
Sitting on the National Cycle Network, and just a few miles away from the coast, Fakenham’s gentle countryside makes it an attractive location for cycling and walking.
Fakenham Racecourse is one of the finest horse racing courses in the country with regular events.
Stunning detached properties with large plots of lands and landscaped gardens
Property Prices in Fakenham
The average house price in Fakenham was £283,501 as of May 2019 with prices rising by nearly 4% over the last year, according to property market experts, Zoopla.
Detached houses make up the most significant portion of the housing stock in the town, representing 38.6% in total, with a high proportion of property suitable for families with children.
Located in the pretty town centre there are some highly sought-after period homes, however, these rarely come onto the market.
For more suburban properties, search around Holt Road for semis and detached and the Heath, and off Norwich Road to the river, for the nicest suburbans.
The nearby village of Little Walsingham is also popular but prices fetch a premium.
You can expect to pay £393,000 for a detached home, £223,000 for a semi, £216,000 for a terraced property and around £145,000 for a one-bedroom apartment.
If you intend to rent, the average rental is currently £740 per month. For a three-bedroom home rent is in the region of £640 per month.
Schools in Fakenham
For expanding and relocating families, Fakenham is well served by various schools catering for children of all ages and abilities.
You will find three primary schools: Fakenham Junior, Sculthorpe CofE and Little Snoring just outside town, all of which are ‘Good’ schools, as judged by Ofsted.
These primaries feed into the only secondary school in the town, Fakenham Academy which is reported by Ofsted as also being ‘good’ with further education provided via a sixth form centre.
The college of West Anglia and Norwich College are the closest two further education schools outside the town with many more situated a little further afield.
Living in Fakenham
Fakenham is a great working family town with all the amenities you would expect from a town of its size.
There are a range of clubs, organisations and societies to join including the famous Fakenham Town brass band, which was established in 1881.
The town is well situated as a base for exploring the Norfolk region, as well as providing much for visitors and residents to do in the town itself.
Pensthorpe Natural Park has 500 acres of nature trails and was voted Norfolk’s ‘Best Large Attraction’ for two years straight in 2014 and 2015.
The park encompasses WildRootz outdoor adventure play and Hootz House indoor play for smaller children, which makes for a great day out for families with smaller children.
The famous Fakenham Racecourse is located just on the edge of town and besides being one of the town’s major employers also holds regular race meets and a range of social activities throughout the year.
Other major attractions and points of interest include:
- The Thursford Collection boasts a large collection of steam engines, fairground carousels and is home to the largest ‘Christmas Spectacular Show’ in England.
