Charles Church Developments
[2][3] Church then started a joint venture with Martin Grant, a carpenter, to enable the financing of 125 plots in Lightwater in Surrey.[3] Charles Church built its reputation on building top quality new homes to the highest standards, successfully growing during the 1970s.[6][non-primary source needed] In April 1987 the company was floated on the London Stock Exchange, as Charles Church Developments plc, to further its expansion.Under Beazer's ownership, Charles Church grew from being a regional housebuilder in the south east of England to a nationwide residential developer throughout the United Kingdom.[16][9] In 2001 Beazer was taken over by Persimmon plc who retained the £37 million "Charles Church" brand name for its most upmarket homes.[2] Between 1999 and 2000, Charles Church built a very luxurious housing estate called Ledborough Gate, in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.The homes were designed in the English country house style, with arts and crafts, rural and Georgian facades and they had double-glazed sash windows.[citation needed] Some Charles Church homes are now re-branded Persimmon house types with higher specification fittings.
