SOUTH YORKSHIRE DEVELOPER KEEPS ENVIRONMENT IN MIND WITH SUSTAINABLE HOMES

Leading housebuilder Barratt and David Wilson Homes has highlighted the benefits of buying a new build home by outlining the sustainable features in its properties at Penning Fold and Penning Ridge in Penistone.

At a time when energy bills are rising, having a home with sustainable features is important to keep living costs low as well as having a positive impact on the environment.

According to recent research by Home Builders Federation, consumers can save up to £3,100 each year on bills in a new build home in comparison to an existing property.

The reason behind new build homes being cheaper and greener is due to features such as double-glazed windows and doors, efficient boilers, quality insulation and watersaving systems.

Stacey Berkeley, Sales Director at Barratt and David Wilson Homes Sheffield, said: “We are delighted to be delivering properties with sustainability in mind to homebuyers in South Yorkshire, as we feel it is important to do our bit for the environment.

“Our properties are expertly designed to comply with energy efficiency regulations. They are built with superior insulation, ensuring the heat stays in your home and energy consumption is minimised, which means modern living and working from home is easy and manageable.

“As the UK’s largest housebuilder, it’s our responsibility to ensure we are helping the environment and our homes will hopefully encourage residents to also get involved and be environmentally friendly.”

As well as this, Penning Fold and Penning Ridge benefit from being just over a mile away from Penistone Station, where residents can travel to surrounding towns and cities including Huddersfield and Sheffield in less than an hour, in a sustainable way.

The development will also feature cycle lanes to encourage residents to travel sustainably.
