Distinctly City & Country

Where Heritage Meets Innovation

For more than six decades, City & Country has been creating homes and communities that stand apart. 

Rooted in a deep respect for Britain’s architectural heritage, we bring together the art of sensitive restoration with the craft of designing and building new homes that feel timeless from the very first day.


Our reputation is built on meticulous attention to detail and a steadfast commitment to doing things the right way. From shaping entire neighbourhoods to refining the smallest architectural detail, every decision is made with care and purpose. The result is homes that not only respect their surroundings but enhance them – places that will be cherished for generations.

Shaping Communities

Creating Places People Love to Call Home

Inspired by history, designed for connection, built for the future

We know creating a home is about more than bricks and mortar – it’s about shaping places people genuinely want to live, visit and enjoy.

Our approach begins with a deep understanding of each site’s history, landscape and community. This guides everything – from materials and detailing to the layout of streets and the creation of green spaces.

Creating places people love to call home

Placemaking at the heart of every development

Avenues, squares and welcoming public areas encourage connection, while shops, cafés and community facilities ensure our developments are vibrant and self-sustaining.

By blending architectural sensitivity with imaginative masterplanning, we create neighbourhoods that grow in character over time – places where heritage and modern life meet seamlessly, designed for today and for generations to come.

Living Beautifully

Design That Inspires Every Day

Premium specifications and timeless interiors crafted around modern living

Our in-house interior design team brings every show home to life, curating spaces that inspire and reflect how people want to live today. From premium specifications and carefully considered layouts to finely chosen finishes, every detail is selected with purpose – the finishing touch that makes every home distinctly City & Country.

Building Responsibly

Homes with Sustainability at Their Heart

Thoughtful design and innovation for people, places and the planet

Our sustainability approach is thoughtful, considered and seamlessly integrated into every design. We adopt modern building techniques and technologies that minimise environmental impact while preserving architectural integrity. From discreetly placed solar panels to energy-efficient heating systems and passive design principles, sustainability is applied with the same care as heritage detailing.

Beyond the home, our masterplans encourage walking and cycling, with community amenities designed to reduce reliance on cars. By creating places where people can live, work and socialise locally, we foster neighbourhoods that are both environmentally and socially sustainable. For us, sustainability is not a marketing term – it is a responsibility woven into every development.
