Penlu, Swanage
 


Penlu, adjacent to Sea Court will be a new development built to compliment  the Victorian house Sea Court.
 
With sea views and close to the shops Penlu will have seven new two bedroom apartments and a three bedroom Penthouse.

As part of sustainable agenda this new development will utilise modern and sustainable building techniques to provide high quality homes with minimum impact on the environment. This will be achieved in part through the use of a centralised wood chip boiler and a well insulated building shell that exceeds current Building Regulations standards.

The homes will be designed with healthy living in mind and aim through careful design to avoid problem areas such as trapped moisture and toxins and the allergies (such as asthma) and chemical sensitivities that can arise. They will also have water saving taps & toilets, low energy lighting and green appliances.

Crucially for the purchasers we will insure that each apartment achieves an Energy Performance Certificate as part of the new Home Information Packs.

First units will be available Spring 2009. For further details please call Oliver Miles Estate Agents 01929 426655 or visit oliver-miles.co.uk. 


 

 
Cedar Woods in St Austell, Cornwall working with Devon and Cornwall Housing Association
 
 
 
We successfully entered a national competition to design and build a sustainable development for which carbon neutrality is the strategic aim for Restormel Borough Council as part of the Urban Village Phase 2 in St Austell, Cornwall. The scheme which will encourage inclusive community living will provide affordable homes that have low environmental impact by minimising harmful carbon emissions. The development will comprise 19 units.

The homes will be built with modern methods of construction and carefully selected materials such as fired and unfired clay blocks, reclaimed Cornish
slate and timber from local sustainable woodland.

A healthy internal environment is one of this development's core priorities.
The design will ensure a “breathable” construction which allows a controlled internal relative humidity through the use of hygroscopic materials.

The buildings have very high acoustic protection which is particularly important in separating walls and floors to apartments. The homes will be designed to maximise the internal daylight factor.

This development will focus on corporate learning with the local council, residents and also the community. User awareness plays a critical role in the environmental impact of buildings in use by motivating the occupiers to voluntarily embrace the sustainability agenda. Swan Country Homes will provide a clear and easy to use Home User Guide and will use monitoring to inform residents of their energy and water use.

We have consulted with Devon & Cornwall Police to integrate Secure by
Design principles.

This exciting and unique scheme has been designed and will be delivered
by a highly experienced team of national experts. These include NBT
Consult, Jewell & Co Architects, and Atkins Global. Swan Country Homes
have just achieved planning for the scheme.

Development commenced in Spring 2008. If you would like any further information on this development please contact Swan Country Homes on corporate@swancountryhomes.co.uk
