Find Your Place
Tucked between the old inland sea where the river Waveney winds and the golden sands of the North Sea, there is something special about Somerleyton, we are thrilled to bring this once in a lifetime opportunity to join this unique estate community. From charming period cottages and design-led custom builds to unique houseboats and secluded woodland cabins – discover your perfect home within our thriving community. Hugh and Lara Somerleyton invite you to help reinvigorate their beautiful estate in the Wild East of England. They would love you to become part of their vision.
About Somerleyton: With Somerleyton Hall and Gardens at its heart, the diverse estate weaves together beautiful period properties, pristine Fritton Lake, an exclusive members’ club, and a full-service marina—all set in the loving embrace of thousands of acres of rewilding, ancient woodland, regenerative farming, and the River Waveney.
Your opportunity: Whether you’re looking to rent or purchase, build or renovate, with a budget of £200,000 or £2,000,000, we offer diverse opportunities for those ready to establish roots, start a business, contribute to our sustainable farming initiatives, and enrich our members’ club experience.
Why we need you: Hugh, Lara, and their family remain deeply committed to the estate and their transformative vision. Such ambition requires a community of like-minded souls who can invest their heart and soul to help them bring it to life.
