Bellway opens new housing development in St Leonards-on-Sea  

Bellway Kent has launched a new development at St Leonards and welcomed the public onto the site for the first time.

The housebuilder threw open the doors to a sales office at Porters Grove, on the former Darwell Campus of St Leonards Academy, off Darwell Close, on Saturday 12 November.

Bellway is building 158 homes for private sale on the site and released the first selection of properties onto the market at the event. There will be a mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes for sale at the development.

Mark Harrop, Sales Director at Bellway Kent, said: “This was an eagerly-awaited launch of a development that has created a good deal of interest both locally and further afield. Members of our sales team were kept very busy all weekend as a steady stream of visitors took their chance to get a look at the site.  

“Our sales advisors fielded a range of questions from a mix of prospective purchasers, from first-time buyers to downsizers and growing families, who were attracted by the selection of two, three and four-bedroom homes being built on the site.

“This first access to the development enabled visitors to fully appreciate the size and layout of the site and its fabulous location on the edge of the pretty seaside town of St Leonards-on-Sea.”   

In addition to the homes for private sale, a further 52 affordable homes managed by Orbit Homes will be delivered within the 23-acre site and will be available for local people through rent or shared ownership.

Porters Grove will feature public open space, footpaths and children’s play areas. All of the homes for private sale will have garages or space for parking.

Mark said: “Buyers being attracted to Porters Grove are reassured by the knowledge that they will be investing in a new home being built to the highest standards by Bellway, a national developer who has achieved five-star builder status with the Home Builders Federation for the sixth year in a row.

“But perhaps the biggest draw is that fact that the development has easy access to some of the most popular beaches on the Sussex coastline. The beaches at St Leonards and Bulverhythe are less than two miles away while Hastings and Bexhill-on-Sea can be reached in ten minutes by car.

“Construction is progressing well at the site and we hope to be able to open the doors to a brand new showhome in spring 2023. In the meantime, we would recommend that anyone who wants to live in this beautiful seaside location should get in touch with our sales advisors as soon as possible.”

The first selection of homes for sale include a choice of two, three and four-bedroom houses, with prices starting from £290,995.
