5 Charter Place, Witney Founded in 1984 to focus on the creation of developments of character and quality to suit the needs of a growing population of over 55s, Beechcroft has, over the years, gained an enviable reputation for its high quality housing. Beechcroft selects the best locations in some of the most attractive villages and small towns in Southern England. Each development is built and finished to Beechcroft s award-winning standards and each home, whether new build or conversion, provides spacious, flexible living accommodation designed according to Beechcroft s principle of creating fewer rooms rather than less space. Hallways, staircases and landings and generouslyproportioned, principal rooms are able to accommodate larger pieces of family furniture and, in homes with two or more bedrooms, each is a double room. Each Beechcroft development also offers something special from extensive landscaped gardens to attractive waterside settings or a private swimming pavilion. Beechcroft homes are ideal for those looking to move from a large, family house to a more manageable home or for those looking for a lock up and leave property that will enable them to travel or spend time abroad.
