New Homes Negotiator

Welcome to Miles & Barr, we’re known for leading the way in Kent. As part of Lomond, the UK’s leading network of lettings and estate agencies, we’re proud to have 12 offices and over 190 staff ready to assist our customers. With our team’s extensive industry expertise and local knowledge, we’re here to help people find, sell and let their property.

We are delighted to offer an exciting opportunity to join our team as a New Homes Negotiator at Len House, a stunning new residential development in the heart of Central Maidstone.

About Len House

Len House is a landmark residential and commercial development in the heart of Central Maidstone, overlooking the River Len. The development has transformed a historic former motor engineering works into a distinctive and vibrant destination, while carefully preserving the building’s heritage and character.

Originally a Grade II listed building, Len House retains many of its original Art Deco features, celebrating its industrial past while creating a sustainable future. The redevelopment, led by Obee Holdings and designed by award-winning architects, has sensitively extended the building upwards by two floors, creating a five-storey development.

Today, Len House provides 80 luxury one- and two-bedroom residential apartments, alongside commercial space at ground-floor level. The project combines contemporary living and working spaces with the architectural character of the original building, creating a unique environment in the centre of Maidstone.

Working at Len House means being part of a carefully considered development that brings together heritage, modern design, sustainability and community in one of Maidstone’s most distinctive buildings.
