Images of how 145 properties will look once they have been built on a patch of historic County Durham land have been revealed.
The first homes have been released for sale at Bellway’s new Hedworths Green at Lambton Park development near Chester-le-Street.
Bellway’s Durham division is building 145 new homes on the historic country estate, which is the ancestral seat of the Earls of Durham.
As part of this development, images of how the properties could look have been released.
Bellway’s plans for Hedworths Green include a café building overlooking the village green which will include a traditional-style butter cross.
The development just off the A183 Chester Road is on land that was once the site of the Lambton Lion Park – an attraction that had lions, hippos, giraffes, elephants, and zebra on show, and attracted many tourists in the 1970s.
Alongside the images being released, the housebuilder said it is offering a deposit contribution of up to £32,500 when buyers purchase one of the new properties.
The exclusive incentive, whereby the developer will provide up to five per cent of the purchase price to boost the buyers’ deposit, runs until Thursday, October 31.
The offer is available on selected plots across County Durham with developments taking part including Clarence Gate in Bowburn, Hedworths Green at Lambton Park near Houghton-le-Spring, and Wellfield Rise in Wingate.
Gillian Bell, Sales Manager for Bellway Durham, said: “This is an incredible offer which is specifically designed to help prospective homebuyers buy the energy-efficient new-build home they have dreamed of but without having to save for years for a large deposit.

“The incentive, which is open to purchasers who make a reservation on selected plots before the deadline day of 31 October, will allow buyers to take advantage of a significant boost to their deposit which will help bring their monthly mortgage payments down.
“This can make a crucial difference and bring a new home within the budget of more and more people.
“We would encourage anyone who might benefit from this deposit contribution to get in touch. Our expert staff will explain the details and guide them through the process, which could see them achieving their goal of homeownership much sooner than they thought possible.”
