Ochre Meadows is a place of real character that reflects its local environment and vernacular. Five distinct character areas create an attractive neighbourhood, with traditional features such as timber doors and casement windows, open eaves, red brick and natural slate roof tiling.
The homes have been designed to follow the principles of the Englefield Estate, to whom the land once belonged to, ensuring that they feel part of the local area and are rooted in their geographical context. Working together with Englefield Estate and ADAM Architecture, Croudace Homes is creating a place to be proud of now and for future generations, that will develop happily and healthily as the community evolves.
