Hide AdPatrick Arkle, regional managing director at Miller Homes North East, said: “We pride ourselves on the quality of our homes and the desirable locations in which we build them, so are pleased to be bringing more and more great places to live in the region each year.”
Interest from house hunters has remained high since the market reopened following the first national lockdown and the announcement of the Stamp Duty holiday.
Mr Arkle added: “The last year has seen many people rethink what they want and need from their home.
"As can be expected people are generally looking for more space for home working and easy access to a great outdoor space.

“Our planned investment in the region won’t stop there, we will continue this trend into 2022 as we’re already forecasting to build almost 1,000 homes next year, growing this year’s number by a further 38 per cent and continuing to create local jobs and career progression opportunities for our people.”
As well as launching new sites, a number of developments are expected to complete this year including Broadoaks in Bedlington and Barley Meadows in Cramlington.
