Charlotte Gurney has big plans to make Sprowston an even nicer place to live and work in, with her new courtyard conversion down on the farm
IT’S HARD TO actually believe that after, months of restoration work, our courtyard conversion is finally starting to take shape.
We’ve been busy transforming the derelict stables on the edge of the city into retail units and a stunning office space, much like we did with the farm shop a few years back. It feels like the culmination of endless planning, energy and vision on behalf of quite a few people, not to mention convincing decision makers along the way of the project’s potential. Hats off to the determined Scott and his team at Danco Building Services for reroofing and grafting through some very hot weather (possibly motivated by the odd homemade strawberry ice cream from the farm shop beneath!). Each tile has been carefully removed, dusted off and repositioned to keep the original authenticity of the farm, and all the while interest from customers has risen. With the new link road starting this month, joining the busy Wroxham Road with the Salhouse Road with a special roundabout just for White House Farm, you can see why. Before long we will have a mere 1200 new homes on our doorstep, making White House Farm the perfect destination to walk and cycle to – it will be a handy commute for the lucky some. Plus, when the Northern Distributor Road is completed, it won’t be far from the farm, firmly establishing the site as a destination for all to enjoy, with free parking and beautiful surroundings.
We’re hoping to have a real variety to offer our customers, all under one roof: from hairdressers to bakeries to florists to wine merchants to gift shops and anything in between. We still have a few units left with the completion date set for Christmas 2016, which seems just around the corner. So if you, or anyone you know of, is looking for space, set amongst the leafy oasis that is White House Farm with the existing café, farm shop and butchery next door, please do get in touch. Help us make Sprowston an even nicer place to live and work.
