Situated on the edge of this popular West Somerset village, the site aims to provide a mixture of open market houses together with high quality affordable housing for the local community. The quality of the design will continue to be driven by Ecos Homes expertise in building sustainable homes which offer energy efficiency blended with healthy and comfortable living spaces. Pictures below show the surrounding area where Exmoor National Park, The West Somerset Coastline and Medieval towns such as Dunster can be found. Click on the image thumbnails below to see larger photos: The developement will offer 32 properties with 16 being offered to the open market, the site is currently at the pre-planning stage and it is hoped that a large area within the site will be designated as a communal greenspace. This will be designed so that it winds its way through the scheme offering places to sit and also offer small interspersed play areas which have a safe but open feel. A number of existing barns are to be renovated creating both exciting, and highly energy efficient homes which will compliment the new build houses. Local materials and design features will be mixed with contemporary technologies and sustainable construction methods. These will include renewable energy sources such as Solar Panels and sustainable materials such as recycled wood, newspaper and wool. More information will be available through 2010 as the scheme progresses although you are welcome to contact us if you have any queries in the meantime. |
