Raby Homes are delighted to introduce the East Leaze development of new homes at Staindrop, County Durham.
East Leaze takes its name following research into the history of the area in the archives at Raby Castle.
The earliest surviving map of this area dates from 1732 and names the area where the development will be placed as East Leaze. We thought it a respectful nod to the past to use this name whilst also looking forward to an exciting new chapter in local history.
New homes in this location will support existing services within Staindrop village and will contribute towards meeting the housing requirements of the County. Over recent decades, we have seen many amenities such as shops and pubs lost in the villages. New housing will bring more spend to Staindrop to help it thrive – supporting schools and local services.
The scheme will deliver high-quality housing (including affordable housing), along with the enhancement of public and open spaces.
The design for the scheme was created by Ben Pentreath, one of the country’s leading architectural practices involved in the design of traditionally inspired new developments. Their work seeks to draw from the best of the past, making places that are human scaled, timeless and long-lasting, and yet robustly designed for modern life.
We are excited to share news at East Leaze as it develops and you can sign up here to receive regular updates.
