Improving Lives With Thoughtful Design

We are committed to reducing the environmental impact of building. We want to improve lives by building thoughtfully designed homes, and while we focus on creating the best homes today, we also value the needs of future generations.

We work towards achieving a sustainable environment as much in our own business as in the homes we build. This includes reducing our carbon footprint, minimising CO2 emissions and meeting government targets.

We’re also very conscious of where we build. The locations we choose are carefully considered, and we make the most of the available land while not disrupting the existing surroundings. We build 95% of our homes on brownfield land and choose sites with social, educational and transport infrastructure already in place.

We are a member of the Sustainable Homes Index For Tomorrow (SHIFT), the UK housing sector's independent sustainability benchmarking and best practice learning network. We currently hold a Silver accreditation.

The UK’s first eco-town at Bicester

We are proud to be building the UK’s first eco-town in north-west Bicester, providing a sustainable lifestyle for homeowners. With the final phase almost complete, we have created over 5,000 highly energy efficient homes. Cutting edge technology has been used to ensure these zero carbon homes are future proofed against climate change.
