Welcome to Ida Homes, Northumberland’s new prestige housebuilder.
We aim to become recognised as builders of heritage in the county which is our home.
We may be a new name in Northumberland but we’ve been quietly building our portfolio over the past few years.
We specialise in building new homes in Northumberland, of exceptional quality in some of the county's finest locations and there will be many more to follow.
Before unveiling Ida Homes, we completed a challenging conversion of traditional farm buildings in Chatton, transforming them into characterful, modern homes. In Christon Bank and Ellingham we have created elegant new homes which complement their surroundings and continue the traditional design approach found in the local area.
This month Ida Homes began work on its first development, King Edward’s Place, a new collection of apartments set in the leafy surroundings of Cottingwood Lane in Morpeth. Plans are also about to be submitted for a development of 37 homes for sale in Belford and we will announce more land acquisitions in the coming months.
Meet the team
Our three founding directors bring together a diverse range of skills. Tom Bell is a quantity surveyor who has built a reputation across Northumberland for building exceptional new homes as an independent developer. Jerry Ellis runs our finance and investments from his base in the South East. Charlie Maling-Dunn is a former Army Officer who retrained as a land and planning specialist after leaving the military. Charlie was most recently Head of Land for Bellway Durham.
We support a host of local businesses and tradespeople who have worked on our previous developments. Ida Homes will create jobs in Northumberland but will also support these established companies by working in partnership.
