Seaham Garden Village is brought to you by housing experts Karbon Homes, Taylor Wimpey and Miller Homes, along with support and engagement from regional stakeholders and the local community. One team with one dream: to build a thriving community with a positive impact for all.
A new place to live. A new way of living. Whatever your story so far, Seaham Garden Village brings you a beautiful new home and a breath of fresh air, on Durham's heritage coast. Where everything you need is on your doorstep. Where sustainability is second nature. Where community truly counts.
The Garden Village is a government initiative designed to support the creation of outstanding new neighbourhoods and places. Garden Villages are unique, innovative and are ultimately, all about creating great places to live.
To achieve Garden Village status, strict design guidelines must be followed. Seaham Garden Village is shaped by a masterplan designed to deliver a fantastic new place to live, work and play. Beautifully and imaginatively designed homes and additional community facilities will be at the forefront, but all sitting within a range of open space and landscaping.
Community engagement has been central to the shaping of the Garden Village plans and we remain committed to further stakeholder and community engagement as we continue with the development.

Green space and greener thinking
Living more sustainably. Sounds a bit intimidating, doesn't it? But when you move to Seaham Garden Village, it'll become second nature.
Sustainable thinking has shaped this community at every stage, from design through to construction.
You'll see it in your exceptionally energy-efficient new home, helping you to cut carbon and stay on top of your bills with the real potential for an innovative renewable energy source. You'll benefit from an extensive network of walking and cycling routes, linking residential areas to the community facilities, helping you rely less on the car.

With its very own infrastructure

Over the next decade we'll create a thriving neighbourhood with its own infrastructure and its own sense of place. As well as all the stunning new homes, fully ready for the future, Seaham Garden Village will also welcome its own shops, facilities and amenities. And we'll even build a primary school, to help the next generation prosper too.
