Luxury homes in an exclusive location

Buyers seeking high-quality homes in one of Britain's best locations are flocking to Orchard Place, George Wimpey's exclusive new development near Sevenoaks, Kent.

Half of the stylish new properties have been sold in just three weeks, meaning anyone interested in purchasing a home in this sought-after setting will have to hurry to make their reservation.

Orchard Place will comprise a selection of two-bedroom houses and four and five-bedroom family homes set in the picturesque village of Otford, home to fine shops, public houses and places to eat, a primary school, an historic church and a medical centre, with the village centre featuring a delightful duck pond.

A superstore is located just outside the village, while Sevenoaks, just four miles from the development, offers a wider range shopping and leisure opportunities and a choice of schools for children of all ages. Bordering an area of outstanding natural beauty, there are also plenty of outdoor activities, including countryside walks, cycling and golf.

For commuters, London Victoria is approximately 40 minutes from Otford station by rail, while buses run regularly between the well-served village and Sevenoaks. The M25 is just five miles away, while Central London is 25 miles by road.

Those reserving a home now can choose from the two-bedroom ‘Chiddingstone' and ‘Penshurst' housetypes from £324,995, the four-bedroom ‘Groombridge' from £424,995, and the luxury five-bedroom ‘Leigh' from £719,995.

The three-storey ‘Groombridge', for example, is characterised by a spacious lounge with French doors to the rear garden, a thoughtfully designed kitchen with breakfast area, and a guest cloakroom.

Upstairs the landing leads to three bedrooms, including the master bedroom complete with en-suite shower room and built-in wardrobes, and the family bathroom. A spacious fourth bedroom, which could alternatively be used as a playroom or a study, can be found on the top floor.

Like all new homes at the development, the ‘Groombridge' enjoys a high standard specification including central heating, double glazing and a fitted kitchen with built-in oven, hob and hood.
