Benefits - The house has been constructed with incredibly high levels of insulation and will have exceptional low running costs. Every wall including all the internal walls and doors have been insulated and there is thicker than normal plasterboard and traditional plaster has been used rather than dry lining which is common in most new houses. Thicker oak doors have been used in the bedrooms and improves the sound insulation. There are double glazed aluminium windows with argon filled glass units to further improve the energy proficiency to the property and there is LED lighting used throughout including stainless steel lighting externally. The heating is also supplied by the heat pump to an underfloor system on all floors and water is stored in a large pressurised cylinder situated in the boiler room. This arrangement gives an ample supply of pressured balanced hot and cold water. In additional the air source heat pump provides the heat source to thermostatic controlled towel rails in the bathrooms. The house also benefits from a whole house heat recovery ventilation system which extracts air from the kitchen and bathrooms in exchange for fresh air from outside which is distributed to the living areas of the property.

Outside - There is a brick paved driveway with parking which in turn leads to the exceptionally large integral double garage with sectional Garador. There is access to either side of the property via a wide porcelain pathway and in turn leads to a rear terrace again with porcelain tiled patio area. The rest of the garden is laid to lawn enclosed by wooden fencing panels.
