Henrietta Place – Smart Living Meets Timeless Country Design
A Perfect Blend of Tradition and Innovation
Henrietta Place is a private gated development of seven bespoke family homes, inspired by classic Kent architecture and brought to life with modern design sensibility. Nestled in a tranquil countryside location yet well-connected to London, these homes set a new standard for contemporary rural living.
While the design pays homage to traditional English country homes, the infrastructure is thoroughly future-focused. The developer behind Henrietta Place knew today’s homebuyers expect more than just beautiful finishes—they want efficiency, flexibility, and seamless technology from the day they move in.
That’s where Avande SELECT came in.
Adding Sales Value Without Complication
From the beginning, the Imperiet Property Group team understood the power of offering tech-enabled homes—but without over-complicating the sales process or inflating build costs.
By partnering with Avande, the development was equipped with a smart backbone that’s:
- Future proof infrastructure designed by Avande to allow wired and wireless upgrades by the homeowners.
- Easily upgraded by buyers post-sale via the Avande SELECT app
- Designed for zero disruption to interior design or architecture
Our team provided technical guidance on several aspects carried over from earlier collaborations, including:
- Speaker cabling and placement allowing for more diverse audio packages, i.e. to include ceiling speakers
- CCTV infrastructure and layout planning allowing homeowners to add cameras and other security systems as they need
- Build-stage support, including temporary CCTV setup in two properties for construction site security
Each Henrietta Place home included a dedicated AV headend, where Avande fitted integrated AV racks directly to the wiring centre, streamlining the core infrastructure incorporating:
- Managed network systems
- Audio distribution to key locations
- Full data line testing and verification
This rack design also allows for future system expansion, ensuring the property can easily evolve with the homeowner’s tech preferences over time-all within the Avande SELECT app. For the developer, this meant they could showcase the smart capabilities of each home—without forcing those features on buyers who may want a more traditional setup. And for the buyer, it meant choice, clarity, and convenience.
What Buyers See: Smart, Simple, Sustainable
Thanks to the Avande SELECT app, homeowners at Henrietta Place can browse, choose, and upgrade features like:
- Multi-zonal smart lighting
- Integrated AV & security systems
- Electric blinds, Wi-Fi upgrades, and more
Each home is pre-measured and configured, so buyers don’t have to worry about installations clashing with architectural elements. It’s all ready to go—just SELECT and enjoy. Homebuyers have the complete confidence and peace of mind, knowing whatever they choose on the Avande SELECT app is made to measure and 100% compatible with the existing electrical, mechanical and prewired infrastructures.
And because Avande SELECT pricing is better than retail, the platform helps convert upgrades into value-added sales—without additional sales training or effort required by the developer.
A Showcase for the Future of Luxury Developments
Henrietta Place is more than just a beautiful countryside enclave—it’s a proof of concept that traditional design and modern technology can go hand-in-hand, without compromise.
With features like air source heat pumps, high insulation, mechanical ventilation systems, and EV charging points, the development is already ahead of the curve on sustainability. Avande SELECT enhances this even further by offering buyers easy access to future-friendly features, and giving developers a tool to boost:
