New homes in the heart of Chaucer Country
A new development in the heart of historic Kent by Fernham Homes boasts a fi ve-bedroom show home, decorated to show the versatility and space of the new properties. Set in the picturesque village of Hollingbourne, just outside Maidstone, the exclusive Ellesmere development of 12 family homes is situated in an area rich both in natural beauty and history. The village of Hollingbourne
once resounded to the noise of horses’ hooves, jingling bridles and the noisy chatter of pilgrims heading from Winchester, Rochester and London to the great shrine of Thomas Becket at Canterbury. These days, residents of the carefully designed, spacious new properties will be able to spend their weekends
walking and cycling along the modern Pilgrims Way, following not only Chaucer’s route but stepping in the footsteps of far more ancient pilgrims who once wended their way to Stonehenge and Avebury. Fernham Homes, which has
more than 60 years’ experience in building quality properties, specialises in fi nding perfect locations for its new developments, making the most of the natural beauty, fascinating history and modern amenities of Kent. The development at Ellesmere comprises four two-bedroom, three four-bedroom homes and fi ve larger, fi ve-bedroom houses, all with landscaped gardens and with the four and fi ve-bedroom homes benefi tting from large garages that have been designed to accommodate modern cars as well as provide room for cycle storage. New homes at Ellesmere start from £355,000. • Visit
