Originally a small shop on Stowell Street in Newcastle, which specialised in cane furniture, Cane & Pine Design has evolved into a bespoke furniture and home décor emporium.

The business relocated to the Milkhope Centre in 1999, where the retail shop was combined with the wholesale importing business, but eventually the wholesale side was stopped to enable the popular retail offering to expand into the whole property. Cane & Pine Design stocks and sells a wide range of products including lighting, pictures, cards, mats and artisan pieces, alongside its unique ranges of oak, rubber wood and teak furniture. 

Set within the beautifully restored 19th century buildings of a former model cattle farm, the Milkhope Centre blends heritage with modern-day charm. The site was transformed in the 1980s into a vibrant hub for artisan workshops and independent retailers, and today, it is an established out of town destination, complete with coffee shop, farm shop, art gallery, and retail outlets, offering a boutique shopping experience in a picturesque countryside setting.

Cane & Pine Design was established in 1990 and has built a strong reputation for personal service and high-quality products. The lease for the store is now available for a new operator to take on, as the family wish to step back and retire from running the store.

Robert O’Brien, Senior Agent at Christie & Co, is managing the sale process and said, “Cane & Pine presents an exciting opportunity for a new operator to take over a well-established business with a loyal customer base and years of repeat trade. Located within the popular Milkhope Centre, a vibrant hub of independent retailers, this business offers not just commercial potential but the chance to embrace a rewarding lifestyle change.”

Cane & Pine Design is located at Unit 10-13 Milkhope Centre. The lease for the store is on the market with an asking price of £150,000 with an annual rent of £18,700.
