We recently launched Greenways, its brand new, energy efficient development in Betteshanger, near Deal, Kent.
The first phase at the development is now available to reserve, and will comprise 19 three and four bedroom homes, with five bedroom properties coming in later phases. Each of the homes are eco-friendly and designed with low-carbon technology including air source heat pumps and underfloor heating across the ground floor. The development will also prioritise open spaces, preserve nature habitats and feature play on the way spaces to encourage residents to socialise.
To coincide with the first homes becoming available, we have announced it will be handing over close to £1.5m to Dover District Council as part of its commitment to supporting the local community in Deal.
These funds, part of the housebuilder’s s106 contributions, will be used to support local services, and build affordable homes.
A significant portion of our financial commitment will go towards funding education facilities for the community, including primary and secondary education and community learning. We will also be contributing toward health and social care services, including the NHS, and outdoor sports facilities, youth services and libraries.
Energy efficient living in Kent
Greenways is one of the many new developments in Kent to launch our new collection of Eco Electric homes.
Our Eco Electric homes come with air source heat pumps and underfloor heating to the ground floor as standard. Air source heat pumps are more efficient than gas boilers, as heat pumps capture heat that is already present in the environment and the system itself does not burn any fuel, therefore no carbon dioxide is emitted. The underfloor heating to the ground floor means that the large open plan spaces found in the Heritage Collection homes can be efficiently heated, without the need for radiators.
The development launch follows our recent research which revealed one in five (24%) homeowners in the South of England are now considering moving to a more energy efficient home to make savings on their bills. The research also showed that more than a third (37%) of people living in the South would prefer to move to a new build home due to their energy efficient features.
Stuart Galloway, Sales Director at Redrow South East, comments: “Greenways is one of our most anticipated developments across the South East, so we’re very excited to launch for reservations to interested homebuyers in Kent, particularly to showcase the new technologies we’ve included to help homeowners maximise their energy efficiency, without compromising on design."
“As well as building homes for the future, we want to ensure we’re supporting the communities we create by providing vital funding for local services, as well as promoting nature and local habitats within the development. I’d encourage anyone looking for a new, eco friendly home to come and see us ahead of the summer to ensure they can reserve their preferred plot at Greenways.”
