Northumberland village housing scheme underway with Anvil Homes

Northumberland-based Anvil Homes has started construction of a new residential development in Slaley village in the Tyne Valley.

The exclusive development of three new four-bedroom homes represents a second phase of the firm’s Slaley scheme, with the first property due for completion this autumn.

The first phase was built in 2015. The project follows behind Anvil Homes’ successful Briar Fields scheme in Great Whittington.

Alistair Carr, director at Anvil Homes, said: “The Tyne Valley has a great deal to offer as a place to live for people of all ages, so we are delighted to be returning to Slaley to deliver another phase of development.

“We have incorporated a high level of design and specification into these new homes including hand-built kitchens, luxury bathrooms and efficient air source heat pump with underfloor heating which we expect will prove very popular.”

Anvil Homes is a family-run business, which has been established since 1993 and specialises in bespoke rural residential developments throughout the North East region.

The firm uses the same pool of local tradesmen for all of its developments and says the Slaley scheme will support nine jobs during its seven-month construction as well as 10 local sub-contractors and suppliers.

Hexham-based Foster Maddison has been appointed by Anvil Homes as selling agent.

Planning permission was granted by Northumberland County Council in January 2019 for the new development, located five miles south of Hexham and 20 miles from Newcastle.
