Castlemere Developments has completed its first major airspace project in Tunbridge Wells.
The Windsor-based company has expanded into the airspace development sector and has a range of projects in the pipeline having completed this first project in Kent.
The 11-unit scheme at Hamilton Court, located on Chilston Road, features five two-bedroom and six one-bedroom apartments. Each apartment will deliver aspirational and affordable modular penthouse living. Prices for a one bed will be from £210,000 and £280,000 for a two bed.
Each apartment offers premium designer kitchens complete with Bosch appliances, quartz worktops, fully tiled bathrooms and oak flooring. Heating is provided via heat pumps to ensure no carbon burning appliances are used.
In addition, each apartment has fibre broadband and assigned parking with dedicated electrical vehicle charging.
Hamilton Court has been built off-site, with Castlemere Developments embracing the modern methods of construction (MMC) approach with all of its properties before lifting them into place for the finishing touches.
It has purposely chosen off-site MMC so that it can deliver projects much quicker than onsite developments, reduce the disruption to current residents, and to ensure its developments are as environmentally friendly as possible.
Kris Collett, managing director of Castlemere Developments, said: "Hamilton Court is a stunning addition to the residential property market in Tunbridge Wells.
"We are incredibly pleased with it. Our plan was to deliver stylish, environmentally friendly accommodation which we have achieved.
"We have chosen to adopt MMC best practices for this scheme – and future ones. This is more cost effective, quicker and also we believe that building airspace apartments offsite is less complex.
"There is a huge demand for residential properties and we will continue to source suitable locations that we can develop to help meet this need."
