Redrow launches eco-friendly homes in Maidstone

Two beautiful new show homes promote Redrow’s latest new venture, Sutton Woods, in Maidstone, Kent, launched just as the housing market starts to show signs of recovery.

Designed to show would-be home owners the lifestyle they can expect to live, the professionally designed and decorated, fully furnished show homes promote a range of eco-friendly two, three and four-bedroom homes on the site of the former Senacre College, off Sutton Road.

They also showcase Redrow’s latest interior specification with its emphasis on more convivial open plan living, plus contemporary new kitchen designs, including floor to ceiling units and top brand name appliances.

The initial sales release at Sutton Woods comprises three-bedroom homes from £229,950 and, with successive reports from two of the UK’s biggest lenders, Nationwide and Halifax, showing month on month price increases now could be the time to invest.

Beryl Williams, area sales manager for Redrow Homes (Eastern), says: “With around 350 homes in a variety of styles, Sutton Woods will eventually have something to suit every kind of buyer.

“The development will also incorporate some stunning mature trees and areas of open space, while being just a short walk from the picturesque Mote Park and, of course, conveniently close to all the amenities of Maidstone town centre.” 

The new homes at Sutton Woods are not only beautiful but practical too. They are being built to comply with Level 3 of the Government’s Code for Sustainable homes, which means home owners will benefit from the energy saving properties of solar power renewable energy systems, low-use water management systems, low energy use light fittings and waste segregation bins to encourage recycling.

Maidstone has all the amenities one would expect of the county town of Kent, including shops, schools, sports and leisure centres, bars and restaurants, whilst Maidstone East station offers journey times to London Victoria or Charing Cross of around an hour.

For those with an existing property to sell, Redrow’s assisted move scheme can help find a buyer and pay their estate agent’s fees at the end of the day.

To find out more about the homes available and help on offer, visit Sutton Woods, open 10am to 5.30pm Thursday to Monday inclusive, or go to redrow.co.uk.
