Kebony wood completes sustainable Springfield Meadows development in Oxfordshire
Situated in rural Oxfordshire on the outskirts of Southmoor , Greencore Construction ’ s latest development provides an innovative solution to the ongoing climate crisis - sustainable housing which comes at no expense to the environment . Spread generously across an eight-acre plot , Springfield Meadows consists of 25 custom build homes , all of which are eco-friendly in nature , with several making use of sustainably sourced Kebony wood .
Designed with a focus on environmentally conscious construction , Springfield Meadows has received widespread recognition as the most sustainable development in the country , demonstrating a firm commitment to low-impact living with a focus on net-zero energy usage , net-zero carbon in use , and better than zero embodied carbon .
Created to benefit both the environment and the community , nine of the homes are affordable in nature , making green living both an accessible and a sustainable option for residents . The high-performance homes provide comfortable , low carbon living as a result of the Biond system selected by Greencore Construction . The homes are Climate Positive ; locking up more carbon than emitted and generating more energy than is used . PV panels are also installed on the roofs of the houses , all of which are built to international Passivhaus thermal performance standards , resulting in energy efficient builds which come complete with a sleek and stylish appearance .
