We recognise that every new development has a lasting impact on the communities and landscapes of Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. As an established and respected housebuilder, we take our responsibility as custodians of the environment very seriously.
At Bennett Homes, we are proud to be a family-run housebuilder with over 75 years of experience creating new build homes across Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex. Known for our excellent reputation and award-winning craftsmanship, we combine traditional building methods with modern design to deliver homes of exceptional quality throughout East Anglia.
Homes designed for every stage of life
From first-time buyers to large families and active retirees, we design homes to suit every stage of life. Each development is thoughtfully located in attractive semi-rural settings, with convenient access to local amenities, good schools and excellent transport links to nearby towns and cities.
Modern living with traditional craftsmanship
Every home is designed for the way we live today, with features such as flexible open-plan layouts, clever built-in storage and the latest energy-efficient heating technologies. Our homes bring together modern comfort and local character, featuring EV charging points and energy-efficient air source heat pumps, alongside timeless details such as flint, Carrstone and pantile roof tiles that reflect East Anglia’s architectural heritage.
Award-winning quality & customer care
Our dedication to detail and customer care has earned us numerous national and regional accolades, including being named House Builder of the Year by the National Federation of Builders six times, most recently in 2023.
As we look ahead, our mission remains the same: to create high-quality new homes across Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex that our customers love to live in, and our team is proud to build.

Our approach to sustainability goes beyond building energy-efficient homes – it extends to how we plan, design and integrate our developments into the local landscape. We carefully consider ecology and biodiversity at every stage, creating natural spaces that encourage wildlife and enhance wellbeing. This includes the introduction of wildflower meadows, hedgerows and dedicated wildlife habitats, alongside thoughtfully designed green spaces and recreational areas for residents to enjoy.
We work in partnership with local authorities and communities to make substantial contributions to infrastructure and facilities, supporting schools, transport networks and public services that improve quality of life for both new and existing residents.
Inside our new-build homes, we are committed to futureproofing. Every property is built with the latest energy-efficient heating technologies, high-performance insulation and water-saving fixtures to reduce environmental impact. Our homes include a range of features such as provision for EV charging points, making it easier for residents to embrace sustainable living.
At Bennett Homes, our focus is on building not just houses, but thriving, sustainable communities – places where people can enjoy modern living while protecting the environment for generations to come.
For over 75 years, we have been putting customers at the heart of everything we do, ensuring that moving into a Bennett home is an exciting and enjoyable experience.

Many of our team members have been with us for decades, their long service a true reflection of loyalty, commitment and a passion for excellence.

Throughout our long history, we have been honoured with numerous national and regional awards that recognise our exceptional customer service, unwavering commitment to quality, and strong performance as a continually growing business.
We’re proud to have been named House Builder of the Year by the National Federation of Builders six times. As one of the construction industry’s most prestigious accolades, this award highlights our unique ability to combine the scale and professionalism of a national developer with the craftsmanship and care of a regional builder. It also reflects our ongoing innovation in designing homes that suit modern lifestyles.
Most recently, we were delighted to be named as a Finalist in the National Federation of Builders Construction Awards of Excellence 2025 in the Outstanding Housebuilder category – further recognition of our dedication to excellence.
While we value our own achievements, we also believe in celebrating and supporting others. That’s why we proudly support a range of charitable causes and local initiatives, including Bury in Bloom, CRASH (the construction industry charity helping people experiencing homelessness and children and adults who need hospice care across the UK), and the Bury Free Press Community Awards, which honour individuals making a real difference in their communities.
At Bennett Homes, we see ourselves as custodians of the communities and landscapes where we build. Every development is designed with care – not just to create high-quality homes, but to enhance the places people call home.
We take pride in our courteous, personal service and our commitment to open, honest communication with every customer. Our team is approachable and hands-on, with managers always available to talk directly with buyers.
