Farmstead by Berkeley Homes · Cranbrook, Kent TN17 3FB

Farmstead is an exclusive, gated new build homes development by the FTSE 100 developer, Berkeley Homes (Berkeley Group), located in the sought-after village of Cranbrook, Kent (TN17 3FB). This private collection comprises just 28 meticulously designed three and four-bedroom houses, alongside a distinctive five-bedroom farmhouse, set within the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The architecture is inspired by traditional Kentish design, executed with modern specifications.

Berkeley Homes maintains a strong track record, having been ranked the top UK housebuilder for build quality by HomeViews and achieving an industry-leading Net Promoter Score of +81.6. The Group is renowned for its focus on complex brownfield regeneration and is a major contributor to new home delivery in London and the South East. The development features a limited collection of three and four-bedroom homes, complemented by a unique five-bedroom farmhouse. Specific properties, such as the four-bedroom detached houses, include a principal bedroom with a stylish en-suite shower room, bespoke fitted wardrobes, and a modern family bathroom. All homes benefit from open-plan living spaces and luxury finishes. Kitchen/diners are a central feature, often dual or triple aspect with high-quality integrated appliances, leading to private gardens via French doors. Practical elements include a carport and parking for up to three cars for the larger properties. The development prioritises sustainability, incorporating energy-efficient housing (a specific four-bedroom house received an EPC rating B), a focus on net biodiversity gain, and low-level bollards for lighting to mitigate light pollution and preserve the rural environment. Farmstead's location offers a blend of countryside living and efficient connectivity. Cranbrook town centre is within a short walk and provides everyday essentials, independent shops, and local restaurants such as Willow and Sage Cranbrook, which was a 2024 Winner of Best Eatery in Kent. The area is a major draw for families due to the proximity of the highly-regarded Cranbrook School, one of the country's few state boarding and day grammar schools. Transport links are centred around the mainline railway station at Staplehurst, which provides regular services to London Bridge in under an hour (typically 54 minutes). The development is strategically positioned for road travel, offering seamless connectivity to nearby towns including Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells. A local bus stop is situated approximately 0.1 miles from the development. For international travel, Gatwick Airport is accessible in around 54 minutes by car. Local recreational and cultural highlights include Sissinghurst Castle Garden and Bedgebury Forest. As a sought-after and limited collection, all new build homes have been reported as sold out.
