New Homes
The proposals include around 3,500 new high-quality, sustainable and energy-efficient homes in a range of dwellings and types, including affordable rent to meet local need.
In summary the new homes will:
- Provide much needed new homes across the site, engaging with Council to deliver quality affordable living.
- Provide private and shared external amenity spaces.
- Be designed to the highest of standards, maximising dual aspect homes that have good orientation, with well-considered internal layouts.
- Include the provision of child play space.

Sustainable living; now and in the future
A site-wide sustainability strategy has been developed to ensure the development achieves a high level of environmental and social sustainability performance.
This includes the new homes which will be energy and water efficient with an aspiration to perform better than Building Regulation requirements.
- Cycle and pedestrian prioritised streets that promote sustainable methods of transport and a safe neighbourhood.
- A legible network of paths that connect through the wider site area to develop a spirited and unified community.
- Working closely with Kent County Council on sustainable travel improvements, and exploring incentives such as flexible ticketing and car club membership for all site residents.
- We will be developing highly sustainable and energy efficient buildings and obtaining BREEAM and LEED certification.
