Philip Brown, Sales and Marketing Director at Millwood Designer Homes, comments: “Over the past year, buyers have bucked the previous ‘urban living’ trend in favour of more rural locations and at Millwood we are thrilled to offer a fabulous selection of homes that tick this box. Tibbs Court Farm is the perfect choice for those wishing to immerse themselves in the great British countryside, with the development advantageously situated just moments from the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Only three homes remain at Tibbs Court Farm, including one five-bedroom property, and two two-bedroom cottages. We therefore urge prospective buyers to reserve as soon as possible.”
