Holkham House is a Grade II* listed property within the city centre of Norwich offering highly characterful accommodation as well as an excellent lifestyle. Number 16 has been utilised as a wonderful Pied A Terre by the current owners to fully take advantage of city life on the doorstep.

Believed to date back to around 1720 and designed by Matthew Brettingham, famously known to have been involved with overseeing the construction of Holkham Hall. This was built for his brother Robert and the property was subsequently split into three dwellings in much later years.
A blue plaque on the external wall documents the history of the property as well as denoting another resident and architect of note who had resided within by the name of John Thomas Patience.

Featuring elegant Georgian characteristics such as sash and arched windows, turned banister, pamment tiled flooring and fireplaces, the property has managed to retain so much of its original charm. Of particular note is the stunning first floor sitting room which contains what must be one of Norwich's most impressive ceilings.
