What Is The Origin Of The Leazes?
Original indentures going back to the mid 1800’s provide a fascinating history to this part of Fulbrook, and the site was recorded as “The Leazes” as far back as 1935.
Leazes (also spelt locally as Leys, Lees, Leases) in old English means “meadowland adjoining a village or town” and is a commonplace term in Oxfordshire.
Considerate Planning With Low Visual Impact
The Leazes is nestled into a secluded site and only visible by a handful of other houses.
It is invisible from any roads except the access lane, and the site is mainly screened by established trees and hedges. Sympathetic planting will be installed on the small section of the land which is visible currently from the footpath to the North of the site.
Who Are We Building For?

The Leazes aim to be economically priced to support local people starting on the housing ladder.
We are trying to do something different – fair prices for solid houses that allow people to stay living where they grew up.
Whether you’re a young professional, a couple starting a family, or an individual seeking independence, The Leazes could be your perfect home.
• Economically priced homes in a traditionally high property price area• Modern, energy efficient design to minimise utility costs.
• Ideally located next to Fulbrook’s newly refurbished playground
“Owing a home near where I grew up is my dream – to be able to stay local to friends and family and to build my independent life in the area I love.” Young professional from Fulbrook, currently in rented accommodation.
Ideal for Downsizers
Often downsizers share similar needs – a property that is warm, easy to maintain and still allows people to remain in the village they love.
The Leazes will only ever be 8 houses when completed, and beyond the tree-lined shelter belt is a beautiful lake which forms a natural barrier to any future development.
The homes will be designed with eco-principles in mind to manage running cost and the impact on the planet, and all will have private gardens and two parking spaces in a landscaped setting.
Are you ready to embrace a simpler lifestyle without compromising on comfort or losing the location you love?
Living at The Leazes offers;
• Compact homes yet spacious enough for comfortable living.
• Low maintenance and lower running costs – more time and savings to enjoy your days.
• Manageable gardens in a green setting with views over neighbouring fields.
“There is nothing currently in Fulbrook for us to downsize into – properties are either large, established homes or are being snapped up for holiday lets. We would love to stay local within the community we call home.” Current Fulbrook Resident
