It’s easy to think of Newcastle as the industrial heartland of the North East. But Newcastle is also a modern metropolis that offers contemporary culture and modern state-of-the-art architecture. Whether you live in the heart of the Toon, over in rival city Sunderland or a pleasant County Durham town such as Barnard Castle, Newcastle is multi-cultural and charming. It boasts a diverse array of museums and galleries to complement the various shops, restaurants, music venues and sporting arenas. It also offers great access to the coast and a whole host of inland beauty spots. Here we dive into Newcastle’s latest house prices that make the city a brilliant place to live.
House prices in Newcastle
With the city developing rapidly, house prices in Newcastle are also going relatively strong. However, they are far from restrictive, especially when compared to regions such as the South East. Like anywhere, prices differ hugely between areas, while the type of property you’re looking at naturally plays a key role. You’re sure to find something to suit virtually every budget in and around Newcastle, as well as the opportunity to buy fixer-uppers and turn-keys alike.

From central spots to areas such as Houghton-le-Spring south of the city and seaside towns like Tynemouth, not far from our Church Fields development, there are lots of great places to live in Newcastle and its surroundings. Here we pick out five popular areas to buy a new home in Newcastle.
