Finberry

Twelve millennia of heritage and timeless natural beauty come together at Finberry

Finberry is a modern, vibrant community that's also firmly rooted in tradition.  An archaeological survey has revealed human activity on the site dating back 12,000 years.  We will explore and preserve this heritage to give Finberry residents a feeling of continuity with the past.

We are also committed to maintaining and enhancing the ecology of the site's environs, creating space for wildlife to flourish.  This is reflected in the public art we've commissioned.  Stunning geese and swan sculptures capture and celebrate the natural beauty that surrounds the new village.  Simple yet visually intriguing, these iconic artworks provide an enduring link with nature and the local environment.

Letting you explore all that Kent has to offer, and beyond

Just a short hop to Ashford International station allows you access to all that the capital has to offer in just 38 minutes.  There's also easy access to the M25, Heathrow and Gatwick airports.

Explore the stunning towns and cities of the continent, from the historic Dunkerque and picturesque Calais to the culture hubs of Lille and Bruges, it's all a short hop from Kent.

What's more, Ashford International is just 3 miles away, allowing you easy access to one of the world's most beautiful cities - Paris - in just one hour 55 minutes.

England's oldest county is steeped in rich history

Perfectly positioned on the south east coast, Kent is a county like no other.  From amazing architecture and castles to superb shopping and scenery, this is a county with something for everyone.

Living at Finberry means being in touch with your community and nature

Finberry has been carefully designed to combine neighbourhood amenities with green space and easy access to the countryside.  Facilities will include a new school, community centre and play area.  In addition, imaginative landscaping ensures that the development feels open and connected to the surrounding rural environment, which includes historic Captain's Wood and the picturesque Stour River and Meadows.

To enhance the village feel, pedestrian and cycle routes will link with established cross-country footpaths.  They will spur the central avenue which will be ecologically landscaped to provide a wildlife corridor connecting Stour Meadows with Bilham Dyke.  A meadow to the north of the development will provide community space and a wildlife habitat to promote ecological biodiversity.
