Trips to Persimmon Homes' latest development in Thanet could be time well spent if you want coastal walks on your doorstep.

Jason Stokes, of Persimmon Homes South East said: "Heronsbrook is one of our most charming developments as we have a collection of two, three and four-bedroom homes situated in one of the most picturesque parts of Kent.

"The development has been designed to maximise the feeling of calm and quiet as it is being constructed around a series of cul de sacs, meaning there's no through traffic to worry about.

"Residents can also take advantage of the local amenities found in Minster, which are all within walking distance, plus with the coast within two miles away at Pegwell Bay there is a host of picturesque walks on Heronsbrook's doorstep."

Homes available at the development include the two-bedroom coach house apartment, a number of three bedroom semi and detached house types and a selection of four-bedroom traditional two storey and contemporary townhouse designs. Prices range from £126,995 to £244,995.

On selected properties, Persimmon is offering an 80 per cent shared equity scheme, meaning first time buyers and those struggling to save for a large deposit could buy their home for as little as £101,596, with a five per cent deposit of just £5,080.

The marketing suite at Heronsbrook is open from 10am until 5pm Thursday to Monday, or ring 08444 900142.
