Read about Jason Dodd’s home purchase journey: A Dream Home Found at Alkerden Gateway

When it came the time for Jason Dodd, a Chartered Surveyor, to downsize from his Hastings home, he had clear aspirations. Seeking a detached home closer to his business with swift connections to London, Jason embarked on an extensive quest to find the perfect place that would meet his exacting standards.

Originally from Wilmington, Jason had been living in Hastings for several years, prioritising proximity to his family. However, the strain of a daily commute had taken its toll. Determined to find his ideal home, Jason’s wish list included a detached dwelling, as he sought refuge from the shared walls of terraced or semi-detached houses. As a devoted music lover, he longed to play his tunes without disturbing neighbours, while also craving the open and airy ambiance of an open-plan living space.

That’s when Jason discovered the enchanting Alkerden Gateway development online, and instantly, its location in Ebbsfleet Garden City captured his attention. Representing the first newly built garden city in a century, it promised to fulfil all his desires. Quick research confirmed that the garden city offered precisely what he was looking for: managed parking, well-planned retail areas, aesthetic public spaces, and within walking distance to Ebbsfleet International Station.

Furthermore, the development’s easy access to the A2, M20, and M25, coupled with its proximity to the leisure facilities, restaurants, and shops of Bluewater, further enticed Jason. Excited about the possibilities, he decided to explore the Alkerden Gateway community in person.

During his visit, Jason met with Richard, a Sales Executive from Westerhill Homes by Chartway, who provided him with invaluable information about the development. Among the various home types available, the Heath Coach House immediately resonated with Jason’s requirements. Detached and boasting an open plan layout, this house had an added bonus: Jason could customize several finishes and incorporate biodiversity and sustainability enhancements, thanks to a unique customization program.

The Heath ticked off three essential items on Jason’s home buying list: detached, excellent value for money, and potential for future enhancements. Fuelled by enthusiasm, Jason wasted no time in making Alkerden Gateway his new home. Reflecting on his experience, he expressed, “I can’t sing Westerhill Homes’ praises highly enough.” From his initial encounter with Richard at the Sales Office, whose exemplary support left a lasting impression, to the assistance he received from the professional site team after moving in, the entire process was exceptionally smooth.

“I am really impressed with the architectural style and site layout of the homes at Alkerden Gateway, and when all the other elements of the garden city are in place such as the market village, it will be an amazing place to live.”
