Appledore Green

Development Overview

Appledore Green is a new build homes development by Redrow, located on Tilden Gill Road in the historic market town of Tenterden, Kent (TN30 7BX). The development is a 100-home community, situated on the picturesque edge of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The scheme primarily offers a premier selection of three and four-bedroom detached and semi-detached properties, which form part of Redrow’s Arts & Crafts-inspired ‘Heritage Collection.’ The architecture is designed to reflect the local Kent style, incorporating features such as clapboard exteriors and hipped roof forms to integrate with the area's character.

Redrow Homes holds a 5-star rating for customer satisfaction from the Home Builders Federation, but prospective buyers should note that some independent customer reviews have cited post-sale quality and service issues common to volume builders.

Property Details

Available properties typically feature spacious layouts designed for modern family life. Key house types include the four-bedroom ‘Cambridge’ and the three-bedroom ‘Oxford Lifestyle.’ The Cambridge model features a generous kitchen, dining, and family room spanning the rear of the property, complemented by a separate lounge, utility room, and a principal bedroom with an en-suite bathroom.

For buyers prioritising luxury, the three-bedroom Oxford Lifestyle is a notable design, transforming the footprint of a four-bedroom home into a three-bedroom layout where all three bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite bathroom. Practical finishes across the development include open-plan kitchen-diners, separate utility rooms, downstairs cloakrooms, allocated parking, and some plots offering an integral garage and an EV home charging point.

Location and Transport Benefits

Appledore Green is within walking distance of Tenterden High Street, which offers a range of independent shops, cafés, and restaurants, as well as a weekly market for fresh produce.
