With eight properties at Ward Homes’ new Deal development already sold, there’s no time for seaside homebuyers to sit around in the sunshine.

With a collection of spacious two, three and four-bedroom homes, the striking new scheme at Sholden Fields will offers new homes in what is one of Kent’s most desirable coastal towns.

Prices at Sholden Fields start from £254,995 and while the architecture will echo Deal’s elegant Victorian grandeur, the homes will be both economical to run and functional.

Laid out across either two or three storeys, character architectural features will include portico doorways, bay and dormer windows.

Internally, layouts will be flexible including open-plan living/dining areas, spacious eat-in kitchens, and master bedrooms with en-suites and dressing areas.

Kitchens will be fitted with the latest range of contemporary units.

Bathrooms, en-suites and cloakrooms will all be fitted with elegant white sanitaryware and finished with contemporary taps and fittings.

All homes will be covered by standard 10-year NHBC buildings guarantee and an additional Ward Homes warranty applies to fixtures and fittings.

Pam Reardon of Ward Homes said: “The pre-launch interest has been amongst some of the highest we have seen across our developments in recent years.

“Talking to customers, we know there is a strong appetite for good quality new homes in Deal from both local buyers looking to stay in the area and also buyers keen to move to the town.”

Sholden Fields launches officially on Saturday, July 13 and Sunday, July 14, when buyers can see the development's new show home and speak to an independent financial adviser.

The development is just over a mile north of Deal and has sea views.
