The Morpeth, South Meadows, South Rd, Belford, Northumberland, NE70 7AF

Open Day - Thursday 29th October, 10am - 2pm

The Morpeth is a thoughtfully designed three-bedroom semi-detached house type, with six available at South Meadows, Ida Homes’ development of 37 houses on the southern edge of Belford. Each offers well-proportioned accommodation and an energy-efficient specification, with Northumberland’s countryside and coastline close by. It offers an appealing setting for family life.

Reduced Market Value opportunity

The property is offered at a 30% discount to full market value as a Reduced Market Value home within the development’s affordable housing provision. Applications are initially open to local Belford residents, and buyers must be registered on Northumberland County Council’s affordable housing list.

For eligible buyers, this presents an opportunity to purchase a brand-new home while remaining part of the local community.

Accommodation

The entrance hall includes a convenient ground-floor WC and leads into a spacious living room measuring almost 18 feet in length, offering flexibility for furniture and seating arrangements.

A separate kitchen/dining room provides a welcoming space for cooking, dining and everyday family life, with wooden worktops, integrated appliances and room for a family dining table. Wooden flooring runs throughout the ground floor, creating a consistent finish.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a comfortable double with its own en-suite. A similarly sized second bedroom and a versatile third bedroom provide space for family, guests or home working. A family bathroom completes the first floor, and all three bedrooms are carpeted.

Specification and outside space

Built with a timber frame, the home combines an air source heat pump, radiators throughout and roof-mounted solar panels to achieve an EPC rating of A. BT fibre broadband and smoke, heat and carbon monoxide alarms are also included.

The exterior features red multistock clay brick, a red and grey tiled roof, white uPVC double-glazed windows and a composite front door. The development has been designed to complement Belford’s traditional buildings, with landscaped communal areas and native planting.

Driveway parking accommodates two cars, with a dedicated EV charging point. Visitor parking bays are also available within the development.
