Set within the sought-after village of Wynyard, Cameron Hall Homes' Stoney Wood development challenges many of the assumptions people have about modern new build housing. Rather than repeating the same design across every street, the development features 76 homes across 21 different house types, creating a neighbourhood that feels established and individual from the moment you arrive. Combined with generous plot sizes, A-rated energy performance and carefully considered interiors, Stoney Wood demonstrates how today's new build homes can deliver both quality and long-term value.

A Development Designed to Feel Established

Unlike many developments where every home looks the same, Stoney Wood offers a varied streetscape with 21 different house types, creating a neighbourhood with character. The inclusion of bungalows alongside larger family homes also provides greater choice without compromising on design or specification.

A Spacious First Impression

Stepping inside, the entrance hall immediately showcases Cameron Hall Homes' focus on generous proportions. Natural light, wide circulation spaces and bespoke under-stair storage create a practical yet welcoming arrival, while the home's A-rated energy performance, underfloor heating and air source heat pump ensure year-round comfort.

Millie describes it as "a proper welcome home" adding that "there's definitely a focus on light and space."

A Contemporary Kitchen with Premium Finishes

The open plan kitchen combines premium finishes with everyday functionality. Quartz worktops, integrated NEFF appliances, a Bora induction hob and a large central island create a space that works equally well for family life and entertaining, while a matching utility room keeps practical tasks neatly out of sight.

Millie says, "I absolutely love the design palette of this kitchen" highlighting the spacious island and thoughtful storage solutions.

A Light-Filled Orangery

The adjoining orangery adds another entertaining space, with a large roof lantern and full-height glazing filling the room with natural light. Connected to both the kitchen and living area, it creates a dedicated dining space without interrupting the open flow of the home.

"There is so much gorgeous natural light coming in here" says Millie, describing it as one of the most impressive features she has seen in a new build.

Beyond the orangery, the living area continues the home's contemporary feel with bespoke shelving, integrated storage and comfortable seating. Positioned alongside the kitchen and dining space, it remains connected to the heart of the home while providing a welcoming place to relax.

Gardens That Set the Development Apart

One of Stoney Wood's defining features is its outdoor space. Cameron Hall Homes designs gardens to be around three times larger than the UK average for new builds, giving families plenty of room to relax, entertain and enjoy the surrounding landscape.

Millie points out that the size of the garden, “You can imagine how well this would work for a family.”

Living Spaces for Every Occasion

Alongside the open plan family area, the home includes a formal lounge with a working fireplace and a dedicated home office. The flexible layout provides spaces for entertaining, working and relaxing, reflecting the changing needs of modern households.

Millie calls the study "a proper home office" and says it is "exactly the kind of space that makes moving to the countryside so appealing."

Smart Technology Built In

Technology is flawlessly integrated throughout the home. Lighting, heating and audio can all be controlled from a smartphone, with custom settings allowing homeowners to create personalised scenes for different times of the day.

Millie explains, "Everything is controlled via an app on your phone" praising the convenience of managing the home even while away.
