The approval of Sittingbourne’s £35million Northern Relief Road, aimed at cutting congestion through the town centre, is good news for would-be residents of Bryant Homes’ Great Easthall development.

The link road will improve access to the commuter routes of the A249 and the M2 when it is completed in just over a year’s time.

It means journeys to the heart of the market town are set to become that little bit more pleasant for those choosing a property at the development on its eastern outskirts.

“It’s fantastic news,” said Tina Westlake, of Bryant Homes South East.

“The new road will be within easy reach of our development and helps to make a home at Great Easthall an even better investment for the future.”

The four-bedroom Westbourne, pictured, a semi-detached property with integrated garage, is available from £209,995 at Great Easthall. The living room features an attractive bay window, and french doors open from the well-proportioned kitchen/dining room into the rear garden, with a separate guest cloakroom also on the ground floor.

Upstairs, the master bedroom has built-in wardrobes and en-suite facilities, while the landing leads to three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
