UK's largest self-build development
An entrepreneurial move by Cherwell District Council meant that a disused Military Of Defense (MOD) base was purchased and designed to be sold on a plot-by-plot basis to self-builders. This move has led to the largest self-build community in the UK and is regarded as a forerunner for future developments throughout the country.
This community will boast up to 1,900 unique properties that will be built over 10 years, including the creation of open, green spaces, a school, playgrounds and allotments.
As seen on Grand Design's: The Street
The development gained further interest following Channel 4's documentary Grand Designs: The Street which followed the first self-built street on the site consisting of 10 unique properties - See the episodes here.
The projects show the opportunity self-builders have to create customised solutions that suit their interests and lifestyles - We've already been on-site in nearby streets fitting custom smart home systems - See Graven Hill property 1 and Graven Hill property 2.
