Property description
The Property is of non-standard construction (Laing Easiform, built in the 1950s, non- prc which does not require certification), yet aspires to be a sustainable eco-home, well insulated and wholly decorated using non-toxic eco-paints and recycled wood for flooring. The bee-friendly garden is designed to attract pollinators, while using all kitchen waste as fertiliser, either as compost or worm-cast.
The property sits in a secluded corner of Sturminster Close, with just one semi-detached neighbour, on one side, and a strip of Council land allowing access to an electricity sub-station on the other, with a small woodland and grassed area, that can never be built on.
Heating and hot water in the property benefit from a a solar thermal panel and choice of gas, electric and a wood-burning stove, offering choice, economy, sustainability and convenience throughout the seasons.
12 x solar pv panels provide electricity and benefit from a Feed-In Tariff of 14.8p/kWh, through the Microtricty scheme.
