Marley Fields is an exclusive development of nine beautifully designed homes, traditionally built by the well-respected NHBC regional award winning developer, Forest Homes (Kent) Ltd due for completion Summer 2021. The development comprises two, three and four bedroom houses with stunning views across open fields and countryside.

Plot Eight is a two bedroom semi detached home. The layout comprises- entrance hall, cloak room, living room and separate kitchen.

To the first floor you will find two double bedrooms and bathroom.

The development has been sympathetically designed to reflect the rural character of Hoath with the houses set behind a newly formed village green and pond which has been designed to encourage the growth of wild plants and provide a wildlife habitat. Bird and bat boxes will be discretely located around the site to provide nesting and roosting opportunities so as to encourage biodiversity.

Each of the houses has been designed in a traditional style using materials that can be typically found in Kentish villages. These include traditional red brick, tile hanging and white weather boarded elevations with plain clay tiled roofs.

Each home has been designed to create a light and spacious interior with bi-fold doors enabling the inside living space to be opened-up to the rear garden.

The front gardens are landscaped and the rear gardens are laid to lawn with paved patios and paths. The two and three bedroom properties will each have two off road parking spaces with the four bedroom properties having either a single or double garage with ample off road parking.

Some of the properties have the benefit of a separate study and all properties benefit from the latest high speed fibre internet connections.
