Located on the edge of Whitstable, this residential development delivers 47 new homes within a landscape-led masterplan.
Shaped by existing trees, hedgerows and open green space, the design is informed by the site’s natural character, retaining and enhancing established planting to create a strong green framework, while a mix of houses and apartments are arranged around shared amenity space to form a high-quality and well-connected new neighbourhood.

The layout has been carefully designed to retain and enhance the site’s existing green infrastructure. Established trees and boundary planting form a substantial landscape buffer, helping to define the character of the development and creating a strong relationship between the new homes and the surrounding natural environment. A communal green space and play area sit at the heart of the scheme, providing a focal point for residents and reinforcing a sense of community.
A varied mix of houses and apartments has been arranged to maximise views towards the landscaped open spaces and maintain a sensitive relationship with neighbouring development. Through careful consideration of scale, appearance and materiality, the proposals create a high-quality residential environment that responds positively to its context while contributing to local housing delivery.
