Sarah and Philip have always cherished village life. Their time in Sibford Ferris in Oxfordshire was marked by close friendships, a welcoming community and the convenience of local amenities such as a reliable doctor’s surgery, a trusted dentist, and even a personal trainer. When the couple decided to find a new home for them and their daughter, staying close to this supportive and vibrant community was paramount.

Their search led them to Deanfield Heights, an exclusive collection of 16 thoughtfully designed properties by Deanfield Homes. Drawn by the development’s respect for the character of the surrounding area and its promise of quality living, Sarah and Philip purchased a five-bedroom Heythrop house. Moving from a similar-sized property nearby, the couple found the additional benefit of a double-storey garage with its own bathroom, providing their daughter with much-valued independence when she moves back home after graduating.

Reflecting on their move, Sarah said: “This is our third new build home and, without a doubt, it has been the best experience so far. The design and build quality are exceptional, with every detail carefully considered to make our daily lives easier. Deanfield Homes has maintained the charm of the area by ensuring the development isn’t overcrowded, and we truly value their commitment to the existing community we are already a part of. Communication with head office was seamless and we were always kept up to date with the site’s progress.”

For Philip, the people behind the development made all the difference. “Michael in sales was a tremendous help from day one and the site staff, particularly Craig and Simon, showed immense pride in their work. Every tradesperson on site was efficient and professional, making the entire journey from purchase to completion incredibly smooth.”

Sarah and Philip have found not just a house but a home, where every detail meets their needs. The warmth of their new community, combined with the professionalism and care from Deanfield Homes, has meant they have settled in quickly into their new home. Philip says: “We would wholeheartedly recommend Deanfield Homes to anyone considering a new build – this has truly been our best experience yet.”
