ZERO CARBON LIVING IN A CHARMING CORNER OF NORTH SOMERSET

The development features a large wildflower meadow and Newland Homes' 30 years anniversary woodland, alongside natural outdoor play areas, meandering woodland paths. Even hedgehogs can enjoy over 380m of 'hedgehog highway' to easily traverse Ryves Vale in its countryside setting.
INCREDIBLE DESIGN, GROUNDBREAKING INNOVATION AND SUSTAINABILITY
Each home is built to a high specification with a kitchen at its heart. Each room boasts considered touches of award-winning design maximising light and space, while you'll particularly love the development's meticulous commitment to sustainability. Using the latest technology, your home can create the prime energy* it needs to at no cost, and while shrinking your carbon footprint. There's even a battery as an optional extra for electricity storage. Gone is the traditional gas boiler, and an air source heat pump works alongside extensive solar panels to provide all the lighting, heat and hot water your family needs. Together with high levels of insulation, you can live more sustainably than ever, without compromising on style.
BREATHTAKING COUNTRYSIDE VILLAGE WITH PLENTY TO DO
New inhabitants to Tickenham are greeted by a friendly community and a hub of clubs and societies, including a drama group, an annual flower show, and sport such as short-mat bowls, dancing and badminton. In addition, Tickenham boasts beautiful walks. Cadbury Camp is a gem; a National Trust spot of historical significance and a haven for native wildlife. Those who reach the Iron Age hill fort at the top will enjoy stunning views of the Severn Estuary and Mendip Hills.
WELL CONNECTED, WITH EXCELLENT SCHOOLS FOR CHILDREN OF ALL AGES
Tickenham is close to the M5 motorway, offering strong connections north, east and west. For rail commuters, there are mainline stations at Nailsea & Backwell links and Bristol Temple Meads. Bristol airport is just 20 minutes away. All of this can be enjoyed with the added advantage of Outstanding and Good Ofsted-rated schools, including Clevedon Secondary School and Tickenham Church of England Primary School, plus many other schools in the locality.
SUSTAINABILITY IS IN EVERYTHING WE DO
There is evidence to show that our climate is changing due to combination of physical and human factors. At Newland Homes, we want to encourage home owners' aspirations to live both sustainably and stylishly. Ryves Vale exceeds Building Regulation requirements, having significantly enhanced renewable power, by incorporating a generous array of solar PV panels to detached homes. With the future in mind, homes are wired with provision for an electric car charging point to be added, including a charger fitted at Ryves Vale.
Sometimes it's small initiatives which make a big difference to everyday life meaning it's easier for you in the long term. Such as:
* Rainwater butts to harvest water, along with composter areas and ample space for your local Council's recycling containers.
* Somewhere to store a bike, therefore encouraging the use of alternative transport forms. An integrated eco bin in the kitchen to assist with sorting recyclables. Research has shown that sorting waste at the point of use results in a higher rate of recycling.
* Out in the wider development, our planting schemes are bee and insect friendly to attract biodiversity back in, In addition to a 'hedgehog highway' allowing hedgehogs to travel around the development freely without being incumbered by fencing and boundaries.
Building sustainability into our homes is what we do.
