A new development of eight large executive homes in the East Staffordshire village of Yoxall has seen enquiries increase threefold since the start of 2026. Priced from £750,000 to £1.25m, the detached houses are at various stages of construction, with three already sold off-plan.
Located off Bond End in the centre of the historic village, Octara Court is designed around a central courtyard and surrounded by open fields. The substantial three- and four-bedroom homes range in size from 1,862 – 2,647 sq ft, with features such as a ground floor study, boot room, multiple en-suites and gallery style landing, all enhancing the feeling of luxury. The expansive living accommodation benefits from a premium, energy-efficient specification including solar panels, air-source heat pumps and underfloor heating.
Sales enquiries for the development are being taken at the five-star HBF housebuilder’s Lawnswood scheme in nearby Branston, where there are show homes and completed street scenes for prospective purchasers to view.
Guy Bebbington, managing director of Cameron Homes, said: “Yoxall is a wonderful village for all generations, known for its vibrant, close-knit community. These large detached homes are ideal for growing families, as well as downsizers who don’t want to compromise on room sizes. It’s very rare for a brand new three-bedroom house to include a dedicated study, ensuites off both the principal and second bedrooms, and a fabulous galleried landing, but with the space of a typical five-bed in even the smallest of these eight homes, there’s so much scope to adapt the living space to best suit your needs.
“While there was some caution and uncertainty in the market about buying executive homes prior to the Autumn Budget, there’s been a threefold uptake in buyer enquiries since the start of this year. Octara Court is the perfect proposition for rightsizers who are looking to move from an older property that requires a lot of maintenance and upkeep. Most of our enquiries are from people we could categorise as last time buyers, who want a low-maintenance, super stylish property to enjoy their retirement in.”
The homes at Octara Court will be ready to move into during the summer, with the whole development due to complete later this year.
Izzy Thompson, senior sales manager for Cameron Homes, said: “The eight houses and surrounding landscaping is rapidly taking shape and a show home will be opening in the coming weeks. We would urge those interested in Octara Court to make contact with our sales advisors, as the homes are so individual and there are only five left to sell.”
The design approach for the development is inspired by heritage barns and reflects the traditional dwellings found locally in Yoxall village, featuring pitched roofs, overhanging eaves and casement windows. Car parking is provided on plot, via driveways and garaging.
The homes at Octara Court are designed to a high EPC rating, ensuring future residents can significantly lower their carbon footprint and benefit from energy savings. Vaillant air source heap pumps, electric vehicle car chargers, and high-performance solar PV panels are all installed as standard, with the option to upgrade to battery storage to maximise renewable energy usage. The stylish fitted kitchens - bespoke designed by Ocean - feature integrated Siemens appliances. Bathrooms, en-suites and cloakrooms have contemporary white sanitaryware, with Porcelanosa floor and wall tiles.
For car journeys, the A38 provides easy access to Lichfield (eight miles away), Burton upon Trent (six miles) and Birmingham (30 miles). Lichfield Trent Valley station is just a short drive away, providing regular 80-minute fast rail services to London Euston and 40-minute journey times to Birmingham New Street.
Established in 1994, Cameron Homes is currently delivering over 200 homes across 11 live developments and has a pipeline of future sites expected to deliver circa 1,000 new homes.
