About The Paddocks
Development Overview
The Paddocks is a new build homes development by Charles Church, the premium brand of Persimmon plc, situated in the village of Horsmonden, Kent, TN12 8AR. The development offers a collection of village-style two, three, and four-bedroom homes, set against a backdrop of peaceful countryside, near the border of the High Weald National Landscape. Pricing for the available properties currently ranges from £425,000 up to £750,000. Charles Church is a national housebuilder with a 5-star HBF rating, however, prospective buyers should note the company's affiliation with Persimmon and consult independent reviews, which historically have been mixed regarding build quality and post-completion service. The developer operates under the New Homes Quality Code, offering a two-year Charles Church warranty alongside the standard 10-year insurance-backed structural warranty.
Property Details
The Paddocks includes a mix of semi-detached and detached house styles. Current listings demonstrate starting prices such as £425,000 for a two-bedroom semi-detached home, and three-bedroom semi-detached properties available between £485,000 and £500,000. Larger, detached four-bedroom homes, including the 'Carnaby' house type, are listed from £695,000 to £750,000. Many of the new build homes incorporate the latest energy-efficient features, with plots including air source heat pumps and pre-installed electric vehicle charging points. Selected properties are designated as ‘Eco Range’ homes. Floorplans typically offer open-plan kitchen/family rooms, separate living rooms, and a master bedroom with an en-suite, as seen in the four-bedroom ‘Carnaby’ design, which also features French doors to the garden. Specific internal specifications and precise floor areas for individual plots should be confirmed directly with the sales team.
