This prominent historic Grade II listed building in the very heart of the city has recently been completely renovated
This unique historic Grade II listed building occupies a prime position opposite St Andrew's Hall and has wonderful triple aspect views of the area. This property has recently been refurbished to make a splendid family home, however the planning has been delayed within the Nutrient Neutrality ban and is awaiting a decision to be transferred from commercial use to residential use. The versatile property was formerly used by a local company as its main office and housed over 20 employees with six separate offices. Previous uses include a school, doctor's and dentist's surgeries and serviced office space. It extends to around 156 sq/m and offers many opportunities.
This is a particularly important building of exceptional special interest with outstanding interiors and we strongly recommend an internal viewing.
History The property is also known as Armada House as it was believed to be partly built from timbers of the sunken Spanish Armada. The story is emphasised by the date 1589 carved on the exterior, and a plaster relief carving of a 16th century ship under sail on the Princes Street side of the building. Although there has been a property on the site since the 14th century the name Garsett House presumably comes from a previous owner Robert Garsett in 1570. It has had numerous uses over the years and was used as a school in 1864 and owned by Ernest Kent a solicitor who on his death bequeathed the property to the Norfolk and Norwich Archaeological Society.
