A Contemporary Interpretation of a Regency Classic
Set within seven acres of landscaped grounds in the heart of Thame, The Crescent is an elegant collection of just 23 thoughtfully designed homes. Inspired by the sweeping Regency crescents of Bath and Edinburgh, the development brings classical proportion and architectural restraint into a modern setting.
This is a carefully considered scheme in one of Oxfordshire’s most desirable market towns, where heritage, design and everyday practicality sit comfortably side by side.
The Crescent occupies the former grounds of an early nineteenth century Grade II listed house and has been arranged into two complementary collections.
The Crescent Villas form a graceful arc of twelve Georgian-inspired homes, each with a private garden and balcony. Alongside them, the Parkside Villas comprise eleven contemporary homes overlooking Elms Park, designed with modern family living in mind.
Across both collections, the architecture balances classical symmetry with clean, modern lines. Designed by award-winning Yiangou Architects, the homes are defined by generous proportions, excellent natural light and layouts that feel calm and intuitive. These are spaces that work just as well for entertaining as they do for day-to-day life.
Interiors are calm, understated and carefully considered, with a focus on quality materials and longevity rather than trend.
Large windows and glazed doors draw light deep into the living spaces and open onto private gardens and balconies. Kitchens are finished with bespoke cabinetry, premium appliances and generous islands designed for everyday use as well as hosting.
Italian porcelain finishes, tailored joinery and feature fireplaces bring warmth and texture, while the bedrooms are well proportioned and designed with comfort in mind. Provision has also been made for lift installation, allowing for flexibility over time.
Thame is one of Oxfordshire’s most sought-after market towns, known for its characterful high street, independent shops and excellent local restaurants. The surrounding Chiltern countryside offers open green space and walking routes, while the town itself retains a strong sense of community.
Oxford is approximately thirty minutes away by car, with direct rail services from Haddenham and Thame Parkway providing easy access into London Marylebone. Heathrow can be reached in under forty minutes, making The Crescent well placed for both commuting and weekend travel.
