Who are Piper Homes?
They haven’t been in business all that long, in fact Piper Homes was only established in 2015. They have however in that time been busy scooping awards and being listed for their growth success to become a leading name in the housing industry. The company, based out of Solihull and with 38 staff, focuses on building attractive family homes in desirable semi-rural locations. The areas they cover with their housebuilding spans Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire as well as the Cotswolds and up to Nottinghamshire. Some of their newer developments are larger than ever before and have seen a move across to the East Midlands region.
Piper Homes success
Success for Piper Homes has been significant, especially in recent years. It started with the housebuilder growing to become a profitable business with a £38m turnover at the end of the 2021 financial year. Before that, in 2020, they won Best Small Housebuilder at the 2020 WhatHouse? Awards.
