A housebuilder in Lenham is celebrating a successful year meeting the growing demand for new homes in the village.
Westwood Park, which is set to see 70 new homes brought to Lenham by Jones Homes, has proven popular over the last 12 months, with house-hunters continuing to make enquiries throughout the first lockdown and beyond.
Last year Jones Homes accelerated its build programme to meet the demand for new homes, and in addition to opening a brand new show home at the site, the developer successfully welcomed the first residents into their homes in October 2020.
Sara Stanhope, Sales and Marketing Director for Jones Homes Southern, said: “Lenham is a picturesque village, truly offering its residents a peaceful community setting, located at the foot of the North Downs.
“Throughout the last 12 months, more people have begun to re-evaluate their housing priorities and are favouring country over city living. Homes in villages like Lenham, with a strong community, excellent transport links and access to attractive countryside are becoming ever more sought-after.
“At Westwood Park, our homes offer all these location benefits, combined with quality construction, a high-specification interior finish and plenty of space to both work and relax.”
Those interested in purchasing a new house at Westwood Park can get an insight into typical homes available from the new four-bedroom Lenham show home.
Sara said: “Equipped with a spacious, open-plan kitchen diner and family room, as well as a dedicated study, the Lenham is a beautiful home designed to show visitors the style and quality of our properties first-hand.
“Our sales centre and the Lenham show home are available for interested buyers only to visit by appointment, during which they will be able to have a safe, socially distant discussion with our sales advisor and have a private viewing of the show home.”
Jones Homes is building a range of three, four and five-bedroom homes at Westwood Park, following the success of its Westwood Grange development which saw 19 new homes brought to the village in 2013.
In line with the planning agreement for Westwood Park, Jones Homes will contribute £290,000 towards infrastructure improvements in the local area, including more than £140,000 towards primary school places; £60,000 towards the creation of green open spaces; and £55,000 towards healthcare in and around Lenham.
There’s a selection of three and four-bedroom homes currently available to purchase at Westwood Park, with prices starting from £339,500.
