Dockleaf Developments: Thoughtfully crafted homes that inspire.

Welcome to Dockleaf Developments. We are a family owned and run property development business. We have been building bespoke houses for over twenty years.

Our houses are designed by exciting firms of architects, based on briefs provided by Dockleaf, each development and each house is truly unique. All our houses must be aesthetically pleasing, with plenty of architectural feature evident on the outside, with generous, contemporary, flowing spaces inside.

The tradesmen that we use are all familiar with the high quality that we demand. Most have worked on numerous projects for us and their experience is vital in ensuring that the end product meets Dockleaf’s expectations, and not least the exacting standards of our customers.

Building beautiful properties across the Tyne Valley for over twenty years.

Breckon Hill Farm

This development combines the character of 18th century buildings with the modern aesthetics of a new build Dutch Barn, and the contrast works perfectly. The barns all incorporate generous open spaces downstairs, with great vistas and thick walls. The new build Dutch Barn is very different, but encapsulates Dockleaf’s innovative approach to finding the optimal scheme for any site.

Lower Chesters

Each house was aesthetically pleasing and architecturally rich with gorgeous, flowing internal spaces. Externally, the houses are predominantly stone under a slate roof, with some areas of timber cladding and contemporary touches. Internally, the kitchens are beautifully designed by Alexander Carrick of Corbridge. The bathrooms are beautifully tiled and coordinated, with bespoke lighting to create a relaxing environment in the home. Bedrooms are spacious, many having en-suites and walk in wardrobes.

The Glades

These two stunning houses, each set on around an acre, have been designed with modern-day living and entertainment in mind. The open-plan living spaces on the ground floor seamlessly link with the outside patio and garden. The specifications throughout are extremely impressive, including oak doors, bespoke staircases, stunning kitchens, and opulent bathrooms.

Kiln Place

The generous family homes, were finished to a high specification throughout with a contemporary touches blending modern with traditional and incorporating timber double glazed windows, stone fireplaces, oak parquet and tiled floors and bespoke kitchens by ‘Alexander Carrick of Corbridge’.

Murrayfield

Dockleaf Developments obtained planning permission for this site and subsequently sold the site to Hadrian Healthcare Group who have exciting plans “to develop a new residential Manor House offering a unique standard of luxury accommodation and care for the elderly population of Hexham and the surrounding areas”  (www.hadrianhealthcare.co.uk). We are sure that the future development by Hadrian Healthcare of the Murrayfield site will be a very good use of the land, and this will ultimately benefit the Hexham community by providing much needed elderly care as well as employment and economic benefits for the area.
