Havannah Park by Bellway in Newcastle upon Tyne

Havannah Park is a development of new homes in Hazlerigg, set against a backdrop of open countryside, yet close to local shops. These properties are designed to appeal to a range of purchasers, including families, first-time buyers and professionals, and will be completed to a high-quality specification.

A development of new homes in Newcastle, situated six miles from the city centre and within convenient distance of the A1 and the A19 for those commuting to Gateshead, Sunderland and Durham. The development lies within the administrative boundaries of Newcastle upon Tyne City Council.

Residents of these new homes in Hazlerigg will find a selection of local shops within easy reach, including a convenience store less than 10 minutes’ walk away and a small supermarket, on Great North Road in Wideopen, around a mile away. Gosforth High Street offers a greater choice, with a small shopping centre, independent and well-known stores, as well as a good selection of restaurants, bars and cafés – all less than four miles from the development.
