Your house – contemporary style with respect for the local vernacular

“Quite simply, in the judges’ opinion, Village Makers is the most innovative privately-funded house-builder currently developing in Britain” New Homes Awards judges.

Your new home will have the charm and character of the old, combined with the energy efficiency of the new. 

We have a wide range of houses, like any traditional village, but you can design your new home by choosing from our options in the custom-build process.

Our build system means that the homes are adaptable and can accommodate changes in lifestyles and family sizes.

Comments from residents

“For the first time in our lives we know our neighbours and for most of the week we don’t use our car. These don’t feel like new houses – with all the natural materials, there’s a lovely soft feel to them. This is the most beautiful house I’ve ever lived in. You can sit on the top floor and watch the play of light as it comes in from all around. It’s magic, truly beautiful.”

“We love the house – and it’s certainly doing what it says on the tin. Having been in an energy efficient house now for 15 months, we are experiencing real savings on fuel.”

“Because of the arrangement of the houses, there’s a genuine interaction between the neighbours and their visitors. There’s a human scale to it and it makes you feel safe.”
