Clarion Invest Site Visit with Northumberland Living (West Chevington Farm)

In October, senior directors of Clarion Invest met with the management and development team of Northumberland Living at their West Chevington Farm development. This was a greatly informative visit and gave the company a clear understanding of the full development roadmap.

West Chevington Farm is a brand-new development of sustainable and environmentally friendly built luxury homes, situated on a National Heritage listed Georgian-era Farm in Northumberland.

The estate comprises 17 stunning and meticulously planned houses, all on generously sized plots, complimented by landscaped community spaces and car-friendly access.

There is a total of 9 barns and 8 purpose built homes. The area has been largely untouched and is a comfortable and friendly community, located 8 miles from Morpeth and 3 miles from the picturesque Druridge Bay.

All of the homes have been designed to accommodate a garage, generously sized rooms, efficient underfloor heating and a mixture of luxury, contemporary and heritage finishes.

Contemporary in design, the properties comprise generous open-plan living areas range from 1,500 to 2,700 square footage, complete with skylights, sun-rooms, bi-fold doors, balconies, contemporary courtyards, water features and beautifully landscaped walkways.

Company director Jason St Pierre met with site developer and owner William Jackson who gave a very comprehensive insight into the development works, phase completion and ongoing plans for the project.

Jason was fortunate enough to be able to stay for the weekend in the development show unit. This gave a up-close experience of the properties and their interior finishing.

Greatlook, a North East-based interior design company, has created a range of bespoke furniture and interior looks for West Chevington Farm. The properties boast stunning open-plan living areas, functional kitchens, luxury bathrooms and sanctuary like bedrooms with a blended aesthetic of classic looks with contemporary twists and conveniences.

Currently the development has constructed and completed the first phase of the project with properties having already been sold. The second and third development phases are now underway.

Northumberland Living (trading as Genesis One Ltd) has just announced it’s latest round of investment funding to further expand on the development footprint. With the addition of Phase 3, an adjoining piece of land to construct three holiday homes, a farm shop, micro pub, café and leisure facilities to service local residents and visitors.

The project gross development value is projected in excess of £12.9million.

Overall the site visit was very informative. We were made to feel very comfortable by the developers and were given a clear explanation of how the West Chevington Farm site is set to roll out.
