Broadland St Benedicts

Formed in 2006, Broadland St Benedicts is the open market housing subsidiary of Broadland Housing Group. Its mission is to generate additional funding to support the Group’s efforts in developing affordable housing across Norfolk and Suffolk.

The company’s ethos centres around creating mixed tenure housing that balances community needs, enriching and reflecting the local environment. Each development is uniquely designed by Norfolk architects who have a deep understanding of the local context, ensuring that the new homes harmonise with their surroundings.

Headquartered in Norwich, Broadland St Benedicts partners with some of the best contractors in Norfolk to construct and deliver high-quality developments. The company is particularly enthusiastic about the new Canary Quay site, designed by the renowned architect Ingleton Wood.

We worked in partnership with Great Hockham Parish Council and Breckland Council to deliver an inclusive housing development in Great Hockham. The new scheme includes homes for local needs, affordable rent, shared ownership and market sale. 

Take a quick flythrough of our new scheme at Great Hockham in Norfolk.

The levels of public subsidy currently available do not cover the costs of developing the affordable rent homes. The market sale properties are included to generate surplus and top up the amount of funding required.    

The scheme has been designed in two parts. A combination of terraced, semi-detached and detached homes at the entrance of the scheme will appear like a natural extension to the village. These homes are focused around an attractively design central space containing the surface water drainage basin. To the west, the design will appear more like a traditional agricultural holding, with a farmhouse and converted farm buildings, to sit sensitively in the wider landscape. 

We undertook a housing needs survey in the area that identified local demand for affordable rent, shared ownership and market sale homes. This was used to decide which properties to develop. The affordable rent and shared ownership homes will be prioritised for people in housing need with a local connection, in accordance with the council’s housing allocation policy. 

We delievered:

• 6 x Affordable Rent
• 2 x Shared Ownership
• 4 x Market Sale

Housden Court in Great Ryburgh was completed in 2018. It consists of 5 homes, all for affordable rent: a one bedroom bungalow and 4 (1 bedroom and 2 bedroom) houses. 

The Great Ryburgh development has a real community feel. The design of the homes are specific to the village, and the intentional green space provides plenty of opportunities for neighbours to interact.

The scheme is named after Andrew Housden, a popular local quantity surveyor who died in 2010.

Our 18 new homes in Fullers Lane, Trunch, were completed in two phases in 2018-19.  The scheme is mixed tenure, with both affordable and shared ownership homes and a mixture of bungalows and houses.

The design of the scheme reflects its rural community. There are lots of open spaces, which give a real community feel to the scheme and ensure plenty of room for families and neighbours.
