If lots of living space is top of the wish list, the show home at Elysium Park - Pentland Homes’ new development in Dover – could give you some ideas.

Newly released homes in the leafy setting start from £188,995 for a two-bedroom property.

In its own secluded grounds, which are set back from the road, Elysium Park has distant views to Dover Castle and the sea beyond.

Julia Price, sales and marketing director at Pentland Homes, said the properties were larger than average new build homes.

“It’s disappointing to think that the average British home has shrunk by 40% over the years, as we truly believe in building high quality homes that provide adequate living space,” she said.

“As such, we’re proud of our Elysium Park development – with its spacious interiors and wonderful setting within close proximity to Dover’s iconic white cliffs and coastal scenery, as well as easy access to London.”

Just released prices for a three-bedroom home with detached garage start at £249,995. Four-bedroom homes are also being built at the 41-home site.

All properties are available to purchase under the government’s Help to Buy scheme.

Elysium Park is two miles from Dover Priory Station.
