Fernham Homes’ new development in East Sussex launching this weekend will offer traditional homes surrounded by woodland…

For those looking to move to the rural surroundings of East Sussex, Fernham Homes is launching its new development, Hillbury Fields on Saturday 5 November.

The exclusive development will comprise 30 properties encircled by ancient woodland and tranquil greenery. Hillbury Fields will offer one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom homes for buyers who will be able to enjoy the very best of what Sussex has to offer. With nature at its core, features include a play area for children, an enhanced ecological wildlife area and a central pond, creating a peaceful environment. Residents can also step out of this serene haven reaching the high street in one minute and experiencing the incredible offerings of the local bustling hub of Ticehurst.

Beth King, sales manager at Fernham Homes, comments: “We are thrilled to be launching the picturesque Hillbury Fields. The countryside setting of Ticehurst and wider East Sussex offers a calm, steady pace of life as well as providing excellent travel links to locations further afield. We were determined to ensure the prominence of nature was felt within the development, to reflect the existing landscape and to be enjoyed by the residents. It was important that we included a range of properties; having received a lot of local interest we knew we needed to cater for downsizers, families and first-time buyers alike, who are already settled in the area but looking for a new home.”

The properties at Hillbury Fields have been thoughtfully designed to seamlessly blend in with Ticehurst’s historic architecture and feature rustic brick, weatherboarding and clay-tiled roofs. In line with emphasising the green surroundings of Hillbury Fields, each home focuses on maximising light and space whilst featuring a contemporary interior scheme with an impressive specification included. Secluded gardens enable residents to appreciate their own private outdoor sanctuary as well as ample parking for ease and convenience.

The development is located within easy reach of Ticehurst which has a charming streetscape filled with independent stores offering everyday essentials, quirky cafes and local pubs including The Bell which hosts comedy and movie nights. Local National Trust parks such as Scotney Castle and Bateman’s, as well as Pashley Manor Gardens and Marle Place Gardens all offer the ideal day out as does Maynards Pick Your Own farm, a favourite with locals particularly those with younger children. Royal Tunbridge Wells is just 10 miles away and offers an impressive host of high street favourites, boutique shops, multicultural eateries and exciting entertainment facilities.

Ideal for families, the local area offers toddler groups, highly acclaimed schools, excellent sports facilities such as football pitches, cricket grounds and road running clubs can all be easily reached. The local village hall is seen as the heart of the community with lots of clubs and events, whilst avid golfers will be in their element with Dale Hill Golf Club less than a mile away. Bedgebury Forest is an award-winning woodland attraction nearby, particularly popular with cyclists with its endless miles of scenic routes and bike hire hub. In addition, Bewl Water offers fishing, canoeing, rowing and sailing along with walking trails and cycle tracks; there is something for everyone in this vibrant village and surrounding areas.

Hillbury Fields is incredibly well located for travel, particularly to the South Coast and Central London. For those needing to commute, Stonegate train station is just six minutes drive from the development and offers services to Tunbridge in 15 minutes, London Bridge in an hour and London St Pancras in under 90 minutes. Travelling by car is just as easy with Tunbridge Wells approximately 20 minutes drive away.  Residents also benefit from the network of local bus routes connecting many hotspots of East Sussex and Kent.

Hillbury Fields is launching on Saturday 5 November, with a new three-bedroom show home available to view. 

The first release is a collection of two- and three-bedroom houses, with prices starting from £395,000.
