Three new Dwellings in the Countryside
Oversland House Farm is a carefully considered residential development in Oversland, Faversham, that transforms a historic farmstead into three distinctive homes designed to blend seamlessly with their rural setting.
The scheme replaces the existing Oversland House and outbuildings with a layout inspired by traditional Kent farmsteads, creating a sense of heritage while embracing modern living. At the front of the site, a new farmhouse takes its place as the primary dwelling, while two barn-style homes form a courtyard to the rear, echoing the character of working farm buildings. Each property combines traditional architectural forms with contemporary detailing, using materials drawn from the local vernacular such as cream brick, natural timber cladding, clay tiles, and dark-framed windows. Sustainability is central to the design, with a fabric-first approach, enhanced insulation, air source heat pumps, solar thermal panels, photovoltaic arrays, and electric vehicle charging points integrated throughout.
The result is a development that respects its context, enhances the landscape, and delivers high-quality homes that feel rooted in their surroundings while meeting the demands of modern life.
