Peacefully nestled in the beautiful Coquetdale countryside, between the Cheviots and the Coast, Longframlington is a small village with charm and rural authenticity. Small but surprisingly equipped with all you would expect from life in the slow lane while delivering on the wish list of a fine country village.
The development, by local developer, Form Properties, is located on a former dairy at North End Farm and just a few minutes walk into the centre of the village. Longframlington is located on the A697, 11 miles north-west of Morpeth and 5 miles south-east of Rothbury.
One of only six of these beautifully crafted homes, Plot Four occupies a nicely positioned plot, west and south west orientation as well as enjoying dual and triple aspect countryside views. Filled with natural light from the multiple windows that frame the rural setting, this home provides an exceptional set of flowing sociable spaces, designed for modern living.
The materials used to construct this home are more than aesthetically pleasing, they are highly durable. The thermal mass can help to passively heat and cool the interior of the house. An air-source heat pump provides an efficient and eco-friendly central heating system.

We really like the fluidity of the living spaces this home provides as well as the dual and triple aspect that enhances the west and south west position. This corner plot provides rural vistas from multiple aspects. We are especially drawn to the living room and the way the space seamlessly connects to the orangery with the contemporary multi-fuel burning stove as the focal point. A double garage and a warm roof system allows for future additions to further liveable space (subject to relevant planning/building regulations) meaning if you need more space in the future you don’t have to move!
