Spitfire Homes Celebrates National Design Award for Ellenbrook

We are proud to announce that our flagship scheme, Ellenbrook in Moreton-in-Marsh, has been named winner of Best Design for Three Storeys or Fewer at the Housebuilder Awards 2026.

This prestigious national award recognises the exceptional architectural design and attention to detail showcased throughout the collection of 250 homes, inspired by the distinctive character and heritage of the Cotswolds.

A defining feature of Ellenbrook is the variety of character areas on display throughout the collection. Each has been thoughtfully designed to establish its own architectural identity, bringing together complementary house styles, traditional materials and carefully considered detailing to create a varied yet cohesive community.

From distinctive rooflines and traditional stonework to carefully crafted elevations, we’ve drawn inspiration from the surrounding Cotswold landscape, combining timeless architectural character with contemporary layouts and our Signature specification.

This latest accolade adds to Ellenbrook’s growing list of national industry awards, reflecting the collection’s exceptional design, quality and attention to detail. This continued recognition reinforces our commitment to creating distinctive homes that complement their surroundings, combining architectural character with the craftsmanship synonymous with Spitfire Homes.

Matt Vincent, Operations Director at Spitfire Homes, commented:

“To receive further national recognition for Ellenbrook is a fantastic achievement and something we’re extremely proud of. From the outset, our ambition was to create a collection that reflects the architectural heritage of the Cotswolds while offering something distinctive for modern homeowners.

“Seeing this approach recognised by the industry is a real testament to the dedication and expertise of our teams and the care that has gone into every aspect of the collection.”

With 75% of homes now sold and an established community continuing to take shape, Ellenbrook remains a showcase of our design-led approach to housebuilding and our commitment to delivering distinctive homes across the Midlands.
