Thrilled by the concept of building their own home, they have made swift progress on their builds using ICF system.
Soon to be joined by more of their friends, they are looking forward to joining the network of self-builders at Graven Hill.
From picking their plot right through to moving in to their home in June 2018, the Kirkmans have shared every step of their self-build journey to help other self-builders moving to Graven Hill.
See the Kirkman’s experience of building their dream home at Graven Hill.
“We started our Tailored Finish journey in November 2017 and got in early so we had maximum options to tailor the home to our preferences. Since then we have picked our internal layout from two designs as well as choosing all of our fixtures and fittings.”
“There’s such a big interest in Graven Hill already, but now the houses are going up fast and people can really see what is going on, those homes are going to sell very fast!”
“Our home is located near the woodland area of the site and is a Passivhaus. I love that the site is environmentally friendly, full of green spaces and contains lots of wildlife.”
Sandra Dunn, moving in to a Custom Build New Home.
“We wanted to move to be closer to the countryside, the Cotswolds in particular. Graven Hill is a great location for us as it gives us the countryside setting we want and it’s close to Bicester train station, making the commute to work in central London fairly simple.”
“One of the benefits of building at Graven Hill is that they take care of finding land and offer pre-approved outline planning permission. It makes life much easier as these are the things that would normally make it difficult for potential self-builders to get going.”
“We’re really looking forward to joining a like-minded community and being a part of such a unique and innovative village development.”
Marc and Laura Marsdale, building their own home.
“We didn’t want to build our own house again but after speaking to the team at the Plot Shop we found that the Tailored Finish coach house gave us exactly what we needed space-wise, plus we had additional design flexibility that you don’t get with standard new build homes.”
“Our coach house comes with a double garage. That was a huge selling point for us as we can use the additional space as a workshop. We’re also really excited that it is a Passivhaus so the bills will be considerably lower.”
“Graven Hill is in a great location. It’s close to the M40 so it’s ideal for travelling to see our daughter, we’ve got the woodlands on our doorstep and many cycle ways to explore.”
Martin and Christine Smith, moving in to a Custom Build New Home.
