Custom build with us

By choosing a custom build plot from us, you’ll have the reassurance that we’ll guide you through both the design and planning process. All our plots have outline planning permission in place along with a design guide so you know exactly how the design of your home can be evolved.

Here at Oakwrights we understand how important the customisation of your home is. That's why our team will support you through the entire process helping you to make key decisions that will make your house a home. 

You’ll be able to tailor the existing design and specification to meet your lifestyle needs, and once you’ve found perfection, we’ll secure the final approvals before servicing your plot and getting your build underway.
