Homes by Carlton completes housing site in County Durham

North East housebuilder Homes by Carlton has completed final works on its Thorpe Paddocks development in Thorpe Thewles, with all 31 homes on this exclusive scheme now sold.

The scheme comprises three, four and five-bedroom luxury homes designed to appeal to families of all sizes.

As part of the planning agreement for the development, Homes by Carlton has contributed more than £195,000 towards public facilities in the area. This includes more than £130,000 for the maintenance of open spaces and over £60,000 towards primary education.

Simon Walker, Managing Director of Homes by Carlton, said: “With much of the Thorpe Paddocks development programme occurring during the height of the Coronavirus pandemic, I’m delighted to be able to say that we were able to continue to make excellent progress on-site. We’re pleased to have now welcomed the final new homeowners to this beautiful development.”

Emma Worth, Development Manager at Homes by Carlton, said: “It was encouraging to see exceptional buyer interest in Thorpe Paddocks even amidst the challenging environment that resulted post-pandemic.

“I believe this interest is indicative of the demand for our bespoke designs and high specification throughout the North East which, as a regional housebuilder, we’re able to deliver whilst considering the needs of the local area.”

Thorpe Paddocks Site Manager Kirk Hardy received a prestigious NHBC Pride in the Job Award for his dedication to raising standards in house building, one of just 443 chosen from a field of 8,000 site managers.

Simon Walker added: “This was a well-deserved accolade for Kirk and our team at Thorpe Paddocks who have worked tirelessly to ensure the homes were built to exacting standards.”

After Thorpe Paddocks’ successful completion, Homes by Carlton has a further four developments underway across County Durham and Darlington – Middleton Waters in Middleton St George; The Langtons in Redmarshall; Eastfields in Whitton and Beauford Park in Witton Gilbert.

Homes by Carlton recently acquired the remainder of its 198-unit scheme at Middleton Waters in Middleton St George. The company has already successfully delivered 50 homes at this popular site, and the team has now launched the next release of 34 units.

Simon Walker said: “2023 has been a positive year here at Homes by Carlton. We’ve completed Thorpe Paddocks, launched the next release of Middleton Waters, acquired our latest development of Beauford Park – located just four miles from Durham City – and made good progress on Eastfields and The Langtons.

“We’re excited to be heading into 2024 with plans for a number of new developments as we work towards our aim of delivering more than 500 new homes throughout the region over the coming years.”
