About Us
Pleased To Meet You
Chartfield Homes, a progressive and forward thinking property developer, has chosen to go against current market convention on a number of levels, where industry trend has been to deliver high volume, standard design homes. Chartfield Homes is set to supply high quality, creatively designed homes to discerning buyers based in London and the Home Counties.
Chartfield Homes is led by Richard Potts, a highly experienced operator with a land and planning background and experience to Managing Director level; his passion is in the delivery of high quality schemes.
Richard’s ability to identify sites with the greatest potential can be demonstrated through his previous work with Laing Homes, CALA Homes and Seaward Properties. Examples include gaining planning consent for 300 homes in Woking , 495 homes as part of the redevelopment of RAF West Ruislip, achieving an off-market purchase for 89 units in Virginia Water during his 9 year career with CALA Homes and most recently, whilst MD at Seaward Properties, achieving planning consents for 167 homes in Southbourne and 320 Homes in New Alresford.
Richard’s experience means that he has a well trained eye and honed ability for sourcing land which has the greatest development opportunity and can maximise a site’s planning potential, to generate strong returns for landowners.
A cut above the rest
Chartfield Homes is set to be a cut above the rest. In an age where many developers are seeking to scale back in terms of unit size, quality and creativity and opting for the relative safe haven of help-to-buy, there is opportunity for a customer focussed housebuilder to prosper provided the end product is truly unique. Since inception in (May) 2019, Chartfield Homes has already secured three sites, and is in the process of gaining planning with a view to begin building within the next 12 months. Chartfield Homes is actively seeking additional sites within the next year and is confident that each landowner will see significant return due to the distinctive nature and finesse of each of its projects. Moving away from repetitive themes, layouts, fixtures and fittings volume housebuilder’s standard house types, Chartfield Homes is committed to producing bespoke homes with high quality furnishes cleverly designed to cater for the customers every need.
An outstanding product
Richard comments: “I am delighted to announce the launch of Chartfield Homes. There is strong demand for new homes for families and discerning individuals; uncertainty is not halting decisions but rather it is driving standards up as buyers are in a position to become increasingly selective. For Chartfield Homes therefore, it is incredibly important that we avoid large scale homogenous house building and instead produce beautiful, bespoke properties which exude character and care. Chartfield Homes will deliver an outstanding product whilst also adding significant value to landowners with sites of strong development potential. We welcome conversations with landowners in London and the Home Counties.”
Chartfield Homes range from £300K - £1m for apartments and £400K-£1.5m for houses. The developer is currently seeking to secure a range of sites before gaining planning and launching building projects later in 2019.
