" The property makes a timeless architectural statement whilst remaining sympathetic to the natural surroundings .”
ROOFING , CLADDING & FACADES
A number of passive measures were introduced , such as highly efficient insulation materials to floors , walls and roof ( including the ultra-efficient Optim-R panels to terraces ), minimised air permeability and the use of high spec modern efficient fenestrations , the performance was further enhanced with high efficiency installations such as LED lighting throughout including lighting control system , high efficiency appliances and fireplace , as well as the inclusion of energy and building management system . In relation to sustainable elements , Sustainable Drainage Systems ( SuDS ) water management system has been installed enabling the use of rain water for irrigation ; along with the green roofs that also promote habitat creation , this system ensures the water runoff is minimised and regulated . The ambient in the house is supported by the inclusion of cutting edge CHP ( combined heat and power ) boilers , whilst cooling and heating boost is provided via acoustically insulated air source heat pumps .
