This unique location provides easy access to the vibrant cities of Norwich and Cambridge, while maintaining the peace of the countryside. This new neighbourhood will encompass a variety of amenities from primary schools, nurseries, health centre, public spaces and parkland and allotments.
The picturesque centre of Thetford resembles something out of the history books. The Little Ouse River weaves its way peacefully through tree-covered greens, between flint stone buildings and under picturesque bridges. However, despite such an ancient appearance, the town offers all the amenities needed for a modern lifestyle. There is a number of supermarkets and other major retail outlets all within easy reach, along with a selection of bars and restaurants to enjoy.
Nearby Thetford Forest offers the ultimate outdoor playground for family days out. This vast pine plantation is criss-crossed with a maze of walking and cycling trails that are perfect for spending a day losing yourself in nature. At the heart of it all is the High Lodge Visitor Centre which offers bike hire for the energetic, Segway for the more adventurous and Go Ape for those who dare.
Kingsfleet lies within easy reach of the A11 which keeps it well connected for city excitement. A 45 minute drive south west takes you to the historic streets and grand colleges of Cambridge, 35 minutes north east will take you to the heart of Norwich's winding lanes lined with characterful boutiques and 25 minutes south will bring you to the charming market town of Bury St Edmunds. Thetford train station is just a 5 minute drive where Norwich, Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds can be reached making Kingsfleet an excellent destination for work / life balance.
The A11 also offers great connections to the rest of the country. The A14 is just 22 minutes away and links up with the A1M which carves a continuous line far north, while connections with the M11 offer journey times to London of under two hours.

About Hopkins Homes
A Tradition of Excellence
From cottage to country to town house, every Hopkins home has a personality you'll love – from the classic look and feel to the everyday practicality of modern living.
There's something about the look of older buildings that appeals to us all. The design, the scale, the feel - our approach takes those qualities that have stood the test of time and blends them with the convenience, practicality and low maintenance demanded by today's modern lifestyle. The result is a home that we and many of our purchasers believe is a joy to own and to live in.
We’re proud of what we do and of the contributions we make to people’s lives and communities. While it’s great to be recognised by industry experts, we never rest on our laurels. That’s why we continue to be awarded year after year.
We are an enthusiastic team of professionals whose skills encompass planning, design, construction and, importantly, after sales - a dedicated customer care team is on hand to take care of any teething problems, however minor.
You can be sure that a home by Hopkins Homes is designed and built to last. Homes that people trust and aspire to.
Craftsmanship
The key to our look and feel is the traditional crafts and materials we use. It’s our focus on the little details that helps set us apart from other housebuilders.
From the careful selection of bricks and brick detailing to window placements and beautiful front entranceways, the exterior of a Hopkins home is always full of character and charm.
Internally, you will find contemporary interior design, superior appliances, the finest of finishing touches – everything you can expect and more from a Hopkins Home.
Kitchen tiled splashbacks are provided as standard, along with fitted wardrobes in most bedrooms, the latest high-speed broadband, coving, and raised ceiling heights to provide that essential ‘light and airy’ feel.
Placemaking
At Hopkins Homes, we spend as much time designing the spaces that embody our developments as we do our homes.
Consideration for the environment plays a large part in our design concepts - trees and natural hedges are often retained as boundaries, experts are consulted to assist where appropriate and additional planting is introduced to mature in keeping with existing surroundings.
Every home is thoughtfully positioned, taking into account the topography, weather, sound and privacy needed.
The Hopkins Homes approach is straightforward: to do what's right to the highest possible standards, the results of which are borne out time and time again. Our homes are hailed by customers and estate agents alike for their continuing desirability and value.
Sustainable Living
We incorporate energy-saving features in all our homes, often going beyond the statutory requirements, helping to reduce heat loss and the emission of greenhouse gases.
With every home, we take a ‘fabric-first’ approach. Instead of adding environmental measures as an afterthought, we weave them into the fabric of each property.
We are introducing air source heat pumps, underfloor heating, zoned heating, car charging points or an allowance for, wastewater heat recovery and photovoltaic panels on some of our developments.
This is in addition to the usual energy efficient savings you would expect from a modern home including insulated lofts and cavities, double glazed windows, LED lighting and water efficient sanitaryware, kitchen fittings and appliances.
Every property comes with its own independent energy audit.
Having a more energy efficient home will significantly reduce your household bills. All our homes achieve a minimum EPC (energy performance certificate) rating of B and according to Which? the average EPC rating for a home in the UK is D.
The Home Builders Federation ‘Greener, Cleaner, Cheaper’ report states that owners of new build homes can save approximately £435 a year on household bills, with more significant savings gained on houses at £555 per year.
