Bellway Homes (North East), Meadowcroft

Imagine your home was rooted on the edge of a Northumberland village scenic enough to be the setting of a painting. Welcome to Longframlington, a friendly community where postcard-perfect views can be captured the minute you leave the house. Whether you're popping to the shop or walking the dog, you'll soak in a landscape that spans for miles, each sight more spectacular than the last. It's enough to make you breathe in the countryside air and know that you've found home.

And the impressive views can be found (quite literally) on the doorstep, with stunning 4 and 5-bedroom homes filling the streets of this exclusive neighbourhood. These quiet streets are tucked away from the main path, each home built to an exceptional specification with future-focused technologies throughout.

The village has all you need for a quiet weekend, but stretch further afield and you'll find the local map dotted with similar communities to explore for market shopping or the perfect bite for lunch. The Northumberland coastline is wild and beautiful, and mere minutes away in the car, while Newcastle's city centre - the cultural hub of the North East - is about a 40-minute drive away. Days away from Meadowcroft look vibrant and varied, and nights back at home will always look peaceful under the stars.
