Ede Homes Ltd

What Ede Homes Ltd does

Ede Homes Ltd is a third-generation, family-owned UK homebuilder operating from its registered office at Park House, Station Lane, Witney, Oxfordshire (company number 05752503), as part of the Ede Holdings Group. Founded circa 1958-59 by Builders Ede and now led by Managing Director Daniel Ede (joined 2013) and Chairman Jonathan Ede (joined 1979), the company has delivered over 2,000 homes across Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, and Buckinghamshire. Current and recent developments include Copper Beech View (Gloucestershire), Badbury Fields (Faringdon), Orchard Mews (Kidlington), Yew Tree Court (Kingston Bagpuize), and The Old Works Yard (Ardington), with properties priced from approximately £400,000 to £650,000+.

The company combines traditional building methods and locally sourced sustainable materials (stone, timber) with modern energy-efficient specifications as standard, including air source heat pumps, underfloor heating, solar panels, EV charging points, and MVHR systems. Kitchens and appliances are sourced from premium brands (Nobilia, Silestone, AEG, Neff, Minoli). In addition to residential development, Ede Homes has expanded into boutique hotel operations, acquiring The Feathers Hotel (21 bedrooms, Woodstock, 2023) and Old Abbey House (27 bedrooms, Abingdon, 2021), operating 192 Hotel in Oxford, and converting the Edge Hotel (38 rooms) on Abingdon Road. A Lettings Portfolio (managed by Amy Needham, joined 2023) and land-purchase services (option agreements, subject-to-contract deals) round out the business.

The go-to-market is sales-led via an in-house sales team (01993 890760), website self-registration, show-home launch events, and estate agent partnerships with Savills and Breckon & Breckon. Revenue is primarily generated through one-off residential property sales, supplemented by recurring hotel accommodation revenue and rental income. The company emphasizes a tailored specification service allowing buyers to customize finishes during construction, alongside a part-exchange option to facilitate transactions. All homes carry a 10-year NHBC structural guarantee, with the company reporting zero structural build claims in its history.
