About Windrush Place
Development Overview
Windrush Place is a large-scale new build development by Bovis Homes, located on Centenary Way in Witney, Oxfordshire (OX29 7AH), forming a key part of the wider West Witney expansion. The complete development is projected to deliver approximately 1200 new homes, alongside significant community infrastructure, on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Bovis Homes, part of Vistry Group, holds a current 5-star rating from the Home Builders Federation (HBF), indicating that over 90% of their customers would recommend them to a friend.
Property Details
The current phase of the development focuses primarily on modern, energy-efficient apartments, alongside a limited availability of larger houses. Available new build apartments are all 2-bedroom and are currently priced from £260,000 to £270,000. Specific examples include Home 17, a 2-bedroom apartment with a south-facing balcony at £260,000, and Home 18, a 2-bedroom apartment with an en-suite to bedroom 1, priced at £270,000. These properties feature an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, often with French doors leading to a private balcony, and come equipped with allocated parking and EV charging points.
For those seeking larger family housing, the wider Windrush Place development also includes a range of 3, 4, and 5-bedroom houses, with 4-bedroom homes starting from approximately £550,000. These houses benefit from enhanced energy-saving technology, including PV solar panels, waste water heat recovery systems, and high-quality insulation. All properties include a comprehensive 10-year NHBC warranty for peace of mind.
Location and Local Amenities
Windrush Place benefits from immediate road connectivity, situated just a quarter of a mile from the A40, providing a direct link to Oxford. This link continues to Junction 8A of the M40 for travel towards London, while Junction 9 of the M40 is approximately 12 miles away (via the A40/A34) for northbound access to Birmingham. For rail commuters, Hanborough Station is located approximately 15 minutes away by car, offering services to Oxford and connections further afield, including Oxford Parkway Station. Local bus services, such as the reliable Stagecoach S1 route, are planned to serve the estate, improving public transport access.
The location is less than two miles from the historic Witney town centre, which offers a range of independent shops, pubs, and a regular farmers' market. Crucially, the Windrush Place community will benefit from significant on-site amenities, including a new purpose-built Windrush Church of England Primary School. Future plans include a local centre with a dedicated Sainsbury's store, a future sports pavilion, football pitches, and allotments, designed to create a self-contained community. The site is also conveniently located near several existing schools, including Cokethorpe School (0.4 miles) and West Witney Primary School (0.6 miles).
Practical Information
The development is in an active phase of construction, with final houses nearing completion and apartments currently available for reservation. Buyers can inquire about specific purchase assistance schemes, including Deposit Unlock (for up to £750,000 homes with a 5% deposit), Home Exchange, and a Key Worker scheme. A financial boost incentive, potentially offering up to a 5% contribution towards the purchase price plus up to £3,000 towards flooring, is currently advertised (subject to terms). For full details on house types, exact specifications, and to confirm completion dates for on-site facilities like the retail units, prospective buyers should contact the developer directly.
