Shop, visit and have fun
Your home has access to an enviable amount of attractions. Catch up on the region’s history with a visit to Beamish, the Living Museum of the North or Washington Old Hall, the National Trust property with links to the first US president. If you’d like to grab a show, there’s Tyne Theatre and Opera House, the Theatre Royal and the People’s Theatre in Newcastle. If you need retail therapy, possibly the best place in the North East has to be the Metro Centre which is huge and packed with high street shops and supermarkets.
Perfectly connected
From your new build home, you can drive to a huge range of prosperous towns and cities in the area. The A1M is a three-minute drive from your new house in Birtley - you can take it north to Gateshead (4 miles) or central Newcastle (7 miles). Sunderland on the A1231 is under 10 miles away with the pretty seaside resort of Seaburn is just 11 miles. If you’d like to jet off, Newcastle International Airport is just 13 miles away via the A696 – the Angel of the North by Anthony Gormley will even wave you on your way.
