Fernham Homes has been awarded Gold for Best Small Housebuilder 2025, at the prestigious WhatHouse? Awards, the UK’s largest and longest-running awards for the new homes industry.

This national recognition marks a significant milestone in our journey and reflects the passion, dedication and craft that goes into every home we build across Kent.

Established in 1999, Fernham Homes has grown into one of Kent’s leading SME housebuilders. We are recognised for our design-led approach, high-quality inclusive specification, customer focus, sustainability initiatives and commitment to the communities we work within.

The WhatHouse? judges praised Fernham Homes for delivering “a masterclass in how simplicity, executed with precision, can redefine quality.” They highlighted the “Fernham Finish,” which blends classic design, thoughtful innovation and exceptional build quality. The judges also commended our customer-driven approach, where buyer feedback directly informs specification, layout and product decisions.

Sean Ellis, Managing Director at Fernham Homes, said:
“We are thrilled to receive the Gold Award for WhatHouse? Best Small Housebuilder 2025. This award is a testament to the dedication of our entire team, our partners and everyone who plays a part in delivering our homes. As we continue our ambitious growth plans, our commitment to thoughtful design, quality and customer experience remains paramount.”

This achievement supports our vision “to be the housebuilder of choice in Kent”, delivering high-quality, design-led homes and exceptional service.
