Brief

Folkestone and Hythe District Council is seeking a lead design team to deliver the redevelopment of Woodland Cottages in Lyminge. The project involves demolishing existing Airey houses and creating new affordable rental homes, with a target of at least 17 new dwellings. The design must reflect Kent and Folkestone rural vernacular characteristics and will require early and ongoing engagement with the Planning Authority. The contract is anticipated to commence in September 2026 with an estimated duration of 4 years to complete RIBA stages 1-6, with an optional extension of up to 12 months. The site redevelopment provides an opportunity to increase density by utilizing currently underutilized plots. Interested suppliers must complete and submit the Invitation to Tender Response Document via the Kent Business Portal at https://www.kentbusinessportal.org.uk/respond/65S5JUJ8BE.
