The eventual arrival of glorious Summer weather has brought a surge of visitors to Dere Street Homes’ prestigious Longhirst Hall development as prospective buyers enjoy visiting not only the new show apartment, but also the stunning grounds and rural location.
Dere Street Homes’ Development Sales Manager, Joan O’Connor, commented, “We have had a great response to our new apartment and we’re also receiving a lot of visitors who have read about or seen photos of the wider development and its spectacular setting! The summer has brought the estate’s private driveway into full bloom and there are also wonderful views over the adjacent wildflower meadow which is awash with the colours of corn flowers and poppies.”
“The new show apartment is a spacious three bedroom duplex design built over the first two floors of the four storey apartment conversion and features a very generously sized open plan living space, perfect for entertaining family and friends.”
“The spacious master bedroom enjoys the luxury of full en-suite bathroom facilities. With a further two double bedrooms and a family bathroom, this design appeals to a wide variety of potential buyers with the bedrooms offering welcoming spaces for guests or the flexibility for a home office.”
“Each apartment here is unique and has been thoughtfully designed to retain character, maximise space and create light filled interiors with a variety of high quality fixtures and fittings including granite worktops and integrated appliances as standard. The range of designs means that there is something to tempt a wide range of buyers, from professionals to those looking to downsize. The apartments offer everyone a unique opportunity to enjoy life in this peaceful corner of a private development and we’re now receiving enquiries from all over the country.”
Surrounded by mature woodlands and the landscaped lawns of the original Hall, the Longhirst Hall development offers residents the perfect location to enjoy the rural lifestyle and is located off the B1337 road, just a few minutes away from the beautiful Northumberland coastline and the new Morpeth Bypass. Longhirst is close enough to links to the new road to allow easy commuting to Tyneside and beyond, whilst being far enough away to retain its truly rural setting.
The original Hall dates back to 1828 when the Lawson family commissioned John Dobson to build their country residence – the same architect who designed Newcastle’s famous Grey Street and some of the region’s most elegant buildings – and has been described as his finest classical design.
The apartments, ranging from one bedroom to three bedroom designs, are released for sale from £149,500 to £279,995.
