Meadowcroft is an exclusive new build homes development by Bellway Homes (North East), located off Front Street in the sought-after Northumberland village of Longframlington, NE65 8BZ. The development comprises a total of 53 low-carbon properties, with 48 executive detached houses allocated for private sale, alongside five affordable homes. The private collection consists exclusively of four and five-bedroom detached properties, designed for larger families or those requiring dedicated remote work space.

The new homes are part of Bellway’s flagship ‘Artisan Collection,’ featuring varied finishes chosen to complement the local architecture and surroundings. Construction is progressing on-site, with the first residents already having moved in, and two furnished showhomes are open for viewing. The detached homes at Meadowcroft showcase an exceptional specification, with a strong emphasis on energy efficiency and modern living. All properties are designed as low-carbon homes, featuring both Air Source Heat Pumps and Solar PV panels. Standard technological features across the development include underfloor heating and electric vehicle (EV) charging points. For example, the four-bedroom ‘Weaver’ house style offers approximately 1667 sq. ft. of internal space, a garage, and an enhanced layout that includes a dressing area and en-suite bathroom for the principal bedroom, plus a second en-suite to bedroom two. The community design features spacious layouts, impressive landscaping, and an acre and a half of open space.
