Based in Oxfordshire and serving some of the most attractive and historic villages, towns and cities across Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds and surrounding areas, Castlethorpe Homes is redefining the design, choice, and quality standards of new build homes.
Creating intimate, sympathetic, select developments, our team considers every facet that makes a home - and the surrounding community - somewhere truly special to live. We're proud that our commitment to quality has been recognised by several prestigious awards across the industry.
Our homeowners sit at the heart of everything we do. All Castlethorpe Homes schemes reflect the ever-changing needs of our buyers: the latest technology, maybe somewhere to work from home, better layout or more outside space. Whatever the reason for moving home, our new homes factor in as much of your ‘wish list’ as possible. We embrace proven, innovative construction methods that maximise energy efficiency whilst minimising lifetime maintenance costs. Creating positive, uplifting outside spaces and environments is just as important to us as specifying the finest internal materials and finishes.
Operating in established locations around historic hubs like Oxford to Cheltenham or Stratford-Upon-Avon to Henley-on-Thames and right across the heart of the Cotswolds, we aim to sympathetically create new homes that complement their local surroundings. Privately owned, we have the time and willingness to listen and the professional experience to deliver.
