Kingswood sells 200th home in Green Hills

September 18, 2022

Kingswood Homes is celebrating the sale of its 200th home at Green Hills in Feniscowles. The double century charts a remarkable success for the homebuilder as it works towards Backburn With Darwen Council’s target of delivering 440 homes across 136-acres by 2026 as part of the Gib Lane masterplan.

The milestone comes as the development was shortlisted for the Housing Project of the Year category of the Building Awards and as the deadline for entries in the Great Big House Giveaway loomed. As building work has progressed, Kingswood has moved out of the original sales office and show home and into a new sales centre on Cloudberry Curve.

Lesley Myers, Sales Director, Kingswood Homes said: “Such a response to Green Hills is incredible and illustrates the importance of the development in providing much-needed homes for the Blackburn area, along with the excitement of buyers at being able to access high-quality homes in such a stunning location.

“Green Hills is surrounded by panoramic views and countryside which includes the West Pennine Moors and Pendle Hill with sight of well-known landmarks like Hoghton Tower and Darwen Tower, while still being close to Blackburn town centre which means it offers everything homebuyers want and need.”

Lesley added: “We are delighted to be celebrating such a milestone and, with a new show home coming soon to further demonstrate the standard and flexibility of these amazing homes, we may well be looking at another one very soon.”

The award-winning development – it scooped five stars in the 2021 UK Property Awards for its Dovecote 4 show home – will eventually feature a range of properties including sought-after two-bedroom bungalows, and semi-detached and detached homes with three to six bedrooms. Kingswood will find out on November 1 if the development has won in the 2022 Building Awards.

Green Hills includes contemporary-style homes designed by HemingwayDesign and inspired by traditional Lancashire farmsteads and towns, along with more traditional looking designs to ensure it caters for a diverse mix of buyers and tastes. Future phases include the Homestead range which nods to the Georgian era popular during the peak of the town’s growth.

Kingswood’s market leading Shape Your Home concept also enables purchasers at Green Hills to choose from a range of floor options to configure their home to suit their lifestyle. Options include adding en-suites, creating fewer and therefore larger bedrooms, adding a study, or completely opening up the ground floor to provide an expansive and multi-functional family-friendly, sociable space.
