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 One is tucked away on a generous plot, enjoying a south and west position as well as enjoying open countryside views. The location offers a sense of intimate enclosure and to some degree, due to its visual seclusion, a sense of separateness, although you are in the heart of the village, you can escape from the everyday.
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.

What we love about Plot One North End Farm and Longframlington Village
We admire the eco-credentials and contemporary touches that sit gracefully alongside the country aesthetic of this new home. The corner plot position provides rural vistas from multiple aspects. The gardens and patio area wrap around the house offering many places to enjoy sunshine. With a south and west facing aspect, the feeling of light and space in the overall design of this house brings a sense of freedom and calm. We appreciate all the luxurious finishing touches and elegance that quietly runs throughout. We especially like the open plan kitchen, dining room and orangery at the heart of this special home. 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!
