Our Philosophy

Chipperfield Land Company Ltd spawned from E J Waterhouse and Sons Ltd, a local family building company established in 1905.  EJ Waterhouse moved into private residential developments in the late 1970s and when this became the main focus of the company Chipperfield Land Company was established.  The company was incorporated in 1987 as a separate business to focus solely on speculative private residential properties for sale to the open market.  We have remained a family run business throughout, the business is now solely run by Robert, the 4th Generation of the Waterhouse family. The continued success of the company is rooted deeply in our commitment to traditional construction methods and attention to detail, and our use of reputable local contractors.

We moved our base from Chipperfield in 2013, but the company still operates under the same ownership and management. We only build within a 20 mile radius of our Office, construct only between 10 and 20 properties a year and design the schemes specifically for each individual location. We rarely repeat standard house types and use local architects to design bespoke schemes to complement the local environment.

We are NHBC registered and continue to be proud of our A1 rating. We value our local reputation highly and strive to maintain it by ensuring our houses are built to the highest standards possible, creating quality homes for our customers.
