Developer Testimonials - “From excellent design, to quality workmanship, to caring and helpful people - nothing was too much trouble. And, as an extra bonus, the house was ready 2 weeks early! After a bad experience with our previous new-build property, I would recommend Osprey Homes to anyone who values quality, professionalism and customer service.” Mr & Mrs M



“I would highly recommend Osprey Homes, the service by all staff has been fantastic from start to finish. Even after completion they are still very attentive and available. Everyone who has visited my new home has remarked on the quality of detail of the whole development. Huge thank you to all the team.” Ms. F



“Jason & Roger and the rest of your team were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish and the end product is truly outstanding.” Mr F – Building Control Team Leader, Uttlesford District Council



“We had a wonderful experience dealing with Osprey and in particular Leanne. She followed up and got back to us promptly and what started as just an enquiry on my part ended up with us in our dream first home. Very grateful to Leanne and Colin and the entire Osprey team for making our experience enjoyable and as smooth as possible.” Ms M

Town Summary - Set amidst rolling countryside, Thaxted is a beautiful and historic town offering a perfect blend of rural charm and modern convenience. At its heart stands the stunning Church of St John the Baptist with Our Lady and St Laurence, famously once home to composer Gustav Holst and the magnificent Lincoln organ, still in use today.

Independent shops, including a butcher, baker, post office, and a curated gift store, give the town its character, while local favourites like The Maypole, The Star, and The Swan Hotel offer refined dining options. A small market on Town Street adds to the village charm.

Ideally located, Thaxted enjoys excellent road connections via the A120, A10, A12, and M11, with Stansted Airport just 7.4 miles away. Nearby towns like Bishop’s Stortford and Saffron Walden offer vibrant shopping and dining scenes. Elsenham Station provides direct trains to London and Cambridge.

Education is equally well served, with local pre-schools and primary schools, the prestigious Felsted School nearby, and the Outstanding-rated Saffron Walden County High School.
