For Mark and Andrea Court, the idea of moving wasn’t something they’d seriously considered in recent years - until a chance visit to Oakley Green changed everything.
Oakford Homes had just opened an interior-designed show home at their impressive collection of 2, 3 and 4-bedroom homes in the pretty Sussex village of Lavant. The Courts were already residents of the village, where Mark was born, and were keen to stay locally. Having considered downsizing several years ago and finding nowhere that suited them, Mark & Andrea decided instead to upgrade the home they’d lived in for more than 30 years.
However, when they visited Oakley Green out of curiosity, they were amazed to find it ticked every box on their wish list.
“As we were walking around, we looked at each other and said to ourselves, ‘It’s perfect!’” Andrea explained. Oakley Green offered the chance to remain in the village while stepping into a new, meticulously designed home. “When we saw this particular house on that first visit, the layout was just right. Everything seems to flow. It’s so well-designed,” Mark added.
Andrea was equally enthusiastic, particularly about the stylish kitchen with composite stone worktops and a range of Smeg appliances, including microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, and tumble dryer. “The kitchen is bigger than we had in our old house too,” said Andrea. “Now we have space for a table and chairs and I love the Quooker tap! The worktops and handless design were exactly what I would have chosen myself.”
Mark & Andrea found the high specification and attention to detail at Oakley Green was far superior to other developments they had previously seen.“Oakley Green is beyond your average development.,” said Mark. “The standard and quality of finish from Oakford Homes is exceptional.”
From start to finish, the Courts’ experience at Oakley Green was made smoother by outstanding customer service. Whether it was Malcolm and Marilyn on-site or the support from Oakford’s selling agents, Sims Williams, they felt supported every step of the way.
“Everyone was so friendly and helpful,” said Andrea. “We put our house on the market with Sims Williams the Monday after we visited the Show Home and it sold in a week, which meant we could reserve the house we wanted at Oakley Green. We were in a chain of six, but everything went smoothly.”
Oakford Homes places great care and quality at the heart of each home, as well as in the thoughtful design of the development itself. Homes at Oakley Green are arranged around a central landscaped green, creating a natural sense of space and community.

After 12 weeks in their new home, Mark and Andrea couldn’t be happier with their decision: “Everyone at Oakford Homes really cares,” they said. “And it shows.”
