Our commitment to outstanding design was recognised in 2004 with Gillcrest achieving its first major industry award. Gillcrest achieved a Your New Homes Magazine award for Best Development for Form & Function for its Samphire development in Chislehurst.
Again in 2005 Gillcrest won a second major Your New Homes award 'Best Development for Form and Function' for a magnificent detached house, again in Chislehurst in excess of 10,000 square feet. Judges were impressed by the company's attention to detail and the outstanding specification of the development.
