Our Story

Established in 1999, we are an award-winning developer who for 25 years has built prime properties for the most discerning purchasers.


With our head office in Northumberland, Countylife specialises in individual developments at high quality locations throughout the north east of England.

Our sites are carefully chosen for their desirable locations within easy access of areas of outstanding beauty, but close to the centres and amenities of village, town and country.

We specialise in small developments, often within conservation areas, and pride ourselves in being sensitive to local surroundings.

Great care is taken to ensure that the building materials we use reflect the heritage of local townscapes, with our architect designed properties carefully planned to blend with the character of the immediate area.

In consultation with planning authorities, local councils and residents, we have transformed derelict brownfield sites into exciting, meticulously detailed, award-winning new homes.
