The development
We are excited to be offering 2 and 3 bedroom homes for Shared Ownership in the village of South Wootton, only two miles from King's Lynn.
These houses are due for phased completions commencing December 2024 onwards (please note this is a guide only).
Wootton Rise, located just off Edward Benefer Way is situated within the small, picturesque Norfolk village of South Wootton, King’s Lynn, set amidst un-spoilt natural beauty.
The village is expertly positioned in the idyllic Norfolk countryside, with the bustling market town of King’s Lynn to the south-west, a stretch of Norfolk’s famous coastline to the north, the River Great Ouse to the west, and the famous 12th Century Castle Rising to the north-east.
Known for its stunning and peaceful outdoor rural spaces, there remains a variety of woodlands and spectacular historic scenery to explore.
