The Hatchery at Swaffham, Abel Homes’ latest quality development, is located on Castle Acre Road, opposite the EcoTech Centre and Waitrose, and only half a mile north of the town centre.

The new homes at The Hatchery will all be finished to a high specification and offer a selection of 2, 3 and 4 bedroom properties. Each home is finished in a contemporary manner with chrome-finish taps and shower fittings to the bathrooms and en-suites, smooth ceilings, coving and fitted floorcoverings throughout.

The fully fitted kitchens include stainless steel Bosch hobs and ovens, integrated fridge/freezers and dishwashers, all of which are A-rated appliances for greater energy efficiency. Ceramic floor tiles to the kitchen and attractive wall tiling to bathrooms, en-suites and cloakrooms from our selected range of tiles from British manufacturer Johnsons Tiles, are standard features. Every home has an intruder alarm system fitted for added security, and also the convenience of electrically operated door to garages where applicable.

Selected properties will have solar panels installed which will heat approximately 70% of the hot water used in the home during the year, low energy light fittings will be fitted throughout all houses and water consumption will be reduced by fitting flow restrictors to all basin taps and the use of dual-flush cisterns. Water butts will be provided in the gardens to collect rain water for garden use.

Swaffham is a lively and bustling market town which still retains its charm and character. The market place, framed by many fine buildings, has been the focal point of life in Swaffham for centuries. The Saturday market, held by permission of a Royal Charter, attracts shoppers from miles around with stalls selling local produce, clothes, bric-a-brac and other wares. Swaffham still boasts many small, privately-run businesses, and on the northern approach to the town, Waitrose’s food store can be found.

With schools for all ages, an excellent selection of shops, a purpose-built sports centre, the new primary care centre, a library, several restaurants and pubs, the town caters for most everyday needs and activities. A new leisure and fitness centre, including a swimming pool, is also planned near the EcoTech Centre.
