Councillors help celebrate launch of Little Furze Place
We held a special staff event to celebrate the launch of Little Furze Place. Our colleagues were joined by local ward members of Three Rivers District Council, including Chairman Cllr Stephen King who cut the ceremonial ribbon to officially mark the opening of the sales office.
Cllr King said: “I have been connected to South Oxhey for 60 years, with my parents coming to the area in the 1950s.
"Taylor Wimpey's new development at Little Furze Place is going to be a wonderful place to live, with acres of woodland on the doorstep and lots of open parkland (awarded Village Green status in 2023) less than seven minutes' walk away.
"I would like to thank Taylor Wimpey for inviting me to the launch and look forward to seeing the new community develop."
Paresh Pandya, Senior Sales Manager for Taylor Wimpey North Thames, said: “We’re delighted to have officially launched Little Furze Place. Our development brings a fantastic selection of new homes to an area with plenty of great amenities and transport links, and it was a pleasure to be joined by local councillors and to show them around.
“We encourage anyone interested in making a move to Little Furze Place to book an appointment with our sales team to find out more about the homes and offers available.”
What our customers say about Taylor Wimpey apartments
Little Furze Place offers a wide selection of two bedroom apartments, which are ideal for first time buyers, young professionals and downsizers. Some of our customers have shared their experience with purchasing a new-build apartment from Taylor Wimpey and what their life is like in their new home.Laura Field (67), had previously lived in a new build home before purchasing from us, and its energy efficiency compelled her to purchase another one over an older, pre-owned home. She chose a two-bedroom flat for its affordability and low-maintenance.
She said: “The things I like most about my new home are the spacious living room/kitchen area, the big bathroom, and the huge storage areas, including the generously-sized kitchen cabinets.”
As a teacher, Laura was eligible for our Key Worker Discount Scheme which offers key workers up to £15,000 off their new home*.
Laura said: “The purchasing process was smooth, and supported by the proactive communication from the sales team, which was deeply impressive. Both the sales team and move-in manager were personable and helpful - it’s been a brilliant experience.”
Jay said: “We found Taylor Wimpey and thought ‘this is the one’. Their homes are bigger and better value for money.”
The couple bought a two-bedroom apartment, and as their chosen plot was in use as a showhome, they had the chance to look at every element of their future home in detail before buying.
Jay said: “As soon as we walked in, we really liked it. When we first viewed the apartment it was still a showhome so we could fully visualise what it could look like. On our second visit it had no furniture, which was great because it allowed our imagination to go wild and it helped us to decide what we wanted. I suggested that we could turn the storage room into a walk-in-wardrobe and Samisola’s eyes lit up at the idea.”
Samisola added: “As an incentive, we were offered a 5% deposit contribution on our home which really helped and it made our decision a lot easier. The sales team were very helpful and we were surprised about how quickly everything happened, especially because we were on holiday for a part of it. It was quick, easy and efficient. After paying our holding deposit, it was less than a month before we moved in. The Touchpoint app also really helped with the process as well.”
After reserving their home, customers can use our official Touchpoint by Taylor Wimpey app to track their homebuying journey, from following its build progress to the final move-in date. The app also allows customers to choose their finishing touches such as flooring, access the dimensions and floor plans of their new home whenever they need, stay in touch with the Taylor Wimpey team and book appointments at the sales office.
Ryan Underdown (27), a surveyor, and his fiance, Sadie Clifton (28), a teacher, were living with their parents in Harlow when they decided to take their first step onto the property ladder with the purchase of their two-bedroom Taylor Wimpey apartment.
Ryan said: “We chose a new build because the designs are very modern and nobody would have lived in it before us, which made it feel more like it would be ours. Taylor Wimpey’s available properties suited our budget, they looked good, and the incentives on offer were great.
“The purchasing process was made easy thanks to the sales team. They were a great help the whole way through and made sure we understood the steps to getting a mortgage. As a first time buyer, the whole process went so smoothly. The sales team frequently checked in on us and if we had any questions they would get back to us almost instantly.
“Taylor Wimpey provided us with a deposit contribution, which enabled us to put a 10% deposit down instead of 5%. This then meant we had more options on what bank we could get the mortgage with and also meant our interest rate was lower.”
Now that they’ve settled in, Ryan shared their favourite things about their apartment. He said: “Our apartment is the perfect size for us and is very spacious. We love the designs of the kitchen and bathrooms.”
Linda Barnes (61), a worker in the finance sector, was looking to retire in her forever home when she came across her dream Taylor Wimpey home. Having lived in an old cottage for eight years, Linda was ready to move on and find a home to settle into ready for her retirement.
She said: “Older houses are very costly to maintain. I had never owned or lived in a new build home, but the idea of having everything new and fresh really appealed to me and also meant I wouldn’t need to decorate my new home, which was a big plus. On top of this, the thought of living in a close community such as a new build development was very appealing.”
Wanting to downsize from her cottage, Linda opted for a two bedroom apartment. She said: “I chose a two bedroom apartment for the extra space so that friends can stay over. Even though this is a downsize from the cottage, all the rooms are really spacious. Both bedrooms are larger than the average double bedroom and the living area being open plan makes everything feel so much bigger. I was also surprised with how much storage space there is; I have a double door storage cupboard from the floor to the ceiling that’s big enough to fit a single bed in! I have never lived in a flat before, but downsizing was the best decision I have made.”
She purchased her new home using our Easymover scheme, which allows buyers to secure their new home before their old one is sold. The sales team then helps buyers to manage the sale of their existing home using their marketing and negotiating skills to make the sales process as simple as possible by removing the pressure to find a buyer. Estate agent fees are covered* and the sales team then stays in contact with the customer, saving them both money and time.
Linda said: “The sales team were fantastic; nothing was too much trouble and they kept me fully informed every step of the way.
“The Easymover scheme was also excellent, the sales team assisted with both the provisional reservation of my plot and the sale of my property. It was so straightforward and took all the stress out of the buying and selling process. My estate agency fees were also covered by the scheme.
“If I had known how excellent Taylor Wimpey was, I would have bought a new build years ago. Buying this plot was a real leap of faith as it hadn’t been built yet, but Taylor Wimpey kept me up to date every step of the way. The staff from reservation to completion have been first class.”

We sponsor the British Firefighter Challenge
We proudly sponsored The British Firefighter Challenge 2025 with a £2,000 donation.The British Firefighter Challenge saw 235 UK Fire and Rescue Service firefighters from across the country and from overseas test their strength and determination in a series of eight competitive challenges. This year’s event took place on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th July on The Parade, Watford High Street.

The annual event aims to raise awareness for the invaluable work that the UK Fire and Rescue Service does, and in total raised £3,370 for emergency services. Our £2,000 donation is part of our ongoing commitment to giving back to the community surrounding Little Furze Place, and was put towards the event’s running costs.
A replica short course challenge was also created for children to try out. Many bought their own fire kit and donned a British Firefighter Challenge helmet. Similar to the main challenge, they each ran hoses and climbed ladders to rescue two teddy bears.
John Gregory, Chairman of The British Firefighter Challenge Team, said: “This year's event was our 9th British Firefighter Challenge and we’d like to thank our sponsors, including Taylor Wimpey, for their support. From our youngest firefighter at 18 years old to our oldest at 64 years old, the course, although extremely challenging, demonstrates that age is just a number, and with course records tumbling this year we are seeing firefighters showcasing the very highest levels of fitness.
