Buyers’ delight with their new homes in Kent

Happy purchasers have given a glowing endorsement to their new homes at Taylor Wimpey’s Leybourne Chase development of properties in Kent, in an independent customer satisfaction survey.

Residents at this sought-after community of new houses and apartments in Kent were asked for their opinions on their properties and the service they had received from Taylor Wimpey in the survey, which was carried out by the National House-Building Council (NHBC).

And 95% of respondents were so delighted with the quality and finish of their new homes in Kent at Leybourne Chase that they said they would definitely recommend the development to friends and family.

Fiona Creed, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for Taylor Wimpey, says: “There is no better recommendation for a new development than one which comes from the people who actually live there – and we’re delighted to have been given the seal of approval from so many of our satisfied purchasers.

“These survey results are fantastic, but we’re not surprised that our purchasers are so pleased because we work hard to ensure we exceed our customers’ expectations – both in the exceptional quality of all our new properties for sale in Kent and the first-class customer service we deliver.

“Any Kent Property-seekers hoping to join these happy customers by securing their place at Leybourne Chase will have to hurry to find their ideal match – because these fabulous homes are selling fast!”

An exceptional selection of high quality homes is currently available to purchase at Leybourne Chase, including two-bedroom apartments from as little as £169,995, three-bedroom houses from just £249,995 and four-bedroom properties from only £294,995.

The three-bedroom ‘Burgess’ semi-detached home, for example, includes many of the superb qualities which make Leybourne Chase such a sought-after development.

This impressive property is priced from only £299,995, and features a light and airy kitchen/dining room, a spacious living room opening through French doors to the private rear garden, plus a handy guest cloakroom off the entrance hallway.

Upstairs, the landing leads to the en-suite master bedroom, two further bedrooms, a study and a main bathroom, while outside the property benefits from a car port and additional allocated parking.

To make choosing a property at this popular development even more appealing, Taylor Wimpey offers a range of incentives including help with deposits and the Government-backed FirstBuy shared equity scheme for first-time buyers, assistance with finding a purchaser and Part Exchange for those with a property to sell.

Incentives can be tailored to customers’ individual circumstances and are subject to availability, with further information available from the Sales Executive.

Set within the leafy grounds of the former Leybourne Grange manor house and hospital, Leybourne Chase is a flagship village development which enjoys a wonderful location and picturesque woodland.

Nearly two-thirds of the development site – some 140 acres – are being preserved as green open space for recreation and leisure, including parks, recreation grounds, fields, children’s playgrounds, sports pitches, a newly-opened ‘trim trail’ footpath, community allotments, a lake and an arboretum.

A brand new community centre is now open at the development, and in time Leybourne Chase will also enjoy a good selection of local amenities, including a convenience store and a health centre.

Local facilities already within easy reach include infant and junior schools, shops and pubs, while nearby Aylesford is home to a wider choice of shopping and schools for youngsters of all ages.

For commuters, West Malling railway station is just over a mile from the development and provides regular services to London Victoria. Maidstone is only seven miles away by road, while quick links to the M20 means central London is within easy reach.

The redevelopment at Leybourne Chase forms part of the Hospital Sites Programme run by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA), the national housing and regeneration agency, to bring 96 former hospital sites back into productive use. As well as working with Taylor Wimpey to develop the site, the HCA is providing funding to ensure new and affordable homes are available for the local community.
