Construction starts our Deerhurst site in Finchampstead

News | 16 Jun 2026

We have officially broken ground on a premium new 26-home development in the highly sought-after village of Finchampstead, Berkshire. 

Surrounded by mature woodland, ‘Deerhurst’ has been carefully designed to enhance and respect its natural setting. The development will feature a thoughtfully balanced mix of two, three and four-bedroom homes, each crafted with the high-quality, design-led approach for which our buyers expect.

The layout of the scheme has been sensitively planned to retain existing mature trees and maximise green open space. In doing so, it not only protects the site’s ecological value but also offers future residents direct access to private woodland, a rare and desirable feature in a modern housing development.

The development demonstrates our continued commitment to creating distinctive, sustainable homes in desirable locations across the south east. The design approach also places a strong emphasis on sustainability. Homes are being built to meet high energy-efficiency standards, incorporating modern building techniques and materials that reduce environmental impact and promote long-term performance.

Chris Bysouth, Construction Director of Elivia Homes Central, commented: “Deerhurst is a great example of what we always aim to achieve: a well-considered scheme that responds to its setting and meets local housing needs. From the outset, we’ve worked closely with our stakeholders to ensure that this development adds genuine value to the area. We’re proud to be constructing homes that not only reflect our design philosophy but also contribute positively to the local environment and community.”

The scheme was developed in close consultation with planning officers and local stakeholders to ensure that both ecological and aesthetic considerations were fully addressed. The result is a development that will blend seamlessly into its woodland context, creating a sense of place and tranquillity while delivering high-quality homes.

The homes are set to launch in early 2027.
