Just seven of the 15 final phase flats at Connection II, Canterbury, remain for sale, less than eight weeks after they were launched.

A big selling point for the development from the start has been that it is ideally placed for commuters as it is just a few minutes' walk from both Canterbury West and Canterbury East train stations, with a journey time to London St Pancras of 56 minutes.

Jim Holliday, of Fairview New Homes, said: "Since the opening of the fast link train to London at the end of last year, Canterbury has attracted more residents who commute into London daily.

"The improved transport links, along with the city's historical and cultural connections, have ensured that property prices in Canterbury have remained stable."

The flats include fitted kitchens with dark granite effect worktops, stainless steel ovens and semi-integrated washer/dryers.

* Prices at the Fairview New Homes development start from £174,995 for a two-bedroom flat. For further information, contact Connells, on 01227 764720 or visithttp://www.fairview.co.uk/
