Kent
Three storeys of flexible living
Evolving lifestyles today are putting increasing demands on our homes and how the house can adapt as circumstances change. As traditional family lifestyles can no longer be easily defined with the growth in stepfamilies and single parent households, the idea of the traditional home is being re-thought to better reflect and accommodate these changes in society.
Building communities for life
The picturesque St Mary’s Island overlooking the Medway near Chatham in Kent, is a 150 acre residential redevelopment that is pushing the boundaries of regeneration by creating a truly sustainable community. The island forms a refreshing new community and will provide residents with a complete lifestyle choice within a lively community for generations to come.

Doors wide open at Gillingham show home

Flexible living is a tale of three storeys
Evolving lifestyles today are putting increasing demands on our homes and how the house can adapt as circumstances change. As traditional family lifestyles can no longer be easily defined with the growth in stepfamilies and single parent households, the idea of the traditional home is being re-thought to better reflect and accommodate these changes in society.
Buying over renting in Canterbury
Buying a home is one of the most important, and expensive, purchases you’ll ever make and buying a property for the first time can be a daunting prospect, particularly given the uncertainties raised by the Northern Rock’s current financial crisis.
Off-plan is the smarter plan
Homes at The Fishing Village, the latest collection of one and two bedroom apartments at Countryside Maritime’s ground-breaking development, St Mary’s Island in Chatham, offer outstanding views over the River Medway and are now available for sale off-plan.
Global thinking, island living
Countryside Maritime is preparing to launch Ventura Riverside, the most environmentally friendly phase of development to date on St Mary’s Island, Chatham Maritime.
Backing the climate bill with carbon neutral homes
With evidence that carbon emissions are accelerating global warming and how we live having a huge impact on the environment, the need for greener homes is high on the political agenda. In addition, the Climate Bill, already in its draft stages, will make the Government’s long-term goals of a 60% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions by 2050 legally binding.
Find your future off Fortune Way
For a long time now Charles Church has been successfully building family homes in Kings Hill. The Propella’s is the house builder’s sixth development there and, with no current plans for further properties, so this is the last opportunity for purchasers who wish to buy a brand new Charles Church home in Kings Hill to do so.
Developer says ‘watch this space’
That’s the message from award-winning house builder Millwood Designer Homes who is to launch a new scheme in Harvel, near Meopham. With its outstanding reputation as a quality house builder of period influenced homes, news of the forthcoming development will be greeted with great enthusiasm.
Location, location, location for retired couple
The verdure of East Kent held significant appeal for retired Londoners Alan Harris and Christine Chester who have a holiday home in Swalecliffe. So when they decided to move from their terrace home in South East London to the coast, Kent was their first choice. Although they had originally planned on moving to Canterbury, it was Westgate-on-Sea, which finally won them over, after finding the St Augustine’s Park development by award-winning house builder Millwood Designer Homes.
The rise of ‘DFL’s’
The presence of ‘down from Londoners’ or DFL’s are becoming an increasing feature in trendy coastal resorts. Affluent city workers enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the South coast either as a weekend get-away or when the time comes for a permanent relocation.
