Description

This is a three bedroom end terrace Passivhaus home that features a spacious living room, kitchen diner with utility and WC, with an ensuite to bedroom one and a contemporary bathroom. It sits in a peaceful location with the future woodland walk and brand new park a stones throw from the property. You approach the property and once inside the hallway gives access to the living room and stairs to the first floor. The living room is a spacious room with windows to the front aspect and door leading to the kitchen diner. The kitchen diner has newly fitted wall and floor units with worktop which are complemented with a built-in fridge freezer, stainless steel electric oven, induction hob and cooker hood. The kitchen provides a good space for a family dining table and a door leads to the rear garden. You will also find a utility room with space for a washing machine and a WC at this level. To the first floor are two double bedrooms, one with ensuite shower room, a single bedroom and a very nicely fitted bathroom. Both bathrooms are furnished with Roca white sanitaryware, Bristan chrome-finish brassware and ceramic tiling to the walls. Externally the rear garden is laid to lawn with a decked seating area to the rear and surrounded by panel fencing. There are two private parking spaces alongside the house.

What is Passivhaus?

A Passive House is a building standard that is truly energy efficient, comfortable and affordable at the same time. Passive House is not a brand name, but a tried and true construction concept that can be applied by anyone, anywhere. Yet, a Passive House is more than just a low-energy building: Passive Houses allow for space heating and cooling related energy savings of up to 90% compared with typical building stock and over 75% compared to average new builds. Passive Houses use less than 1.5 l of oil or 1.5 m3 of gas to heat one square meter of living space for a year – substantially less than common “low-energy” buildings. Vast energy savings have been demonstrated in warm climates where typical buildings also require active cooling. Passive Houses make efficient use of the sun, internal heat sources and heat recovery, rendering conventional heating systems unnecessary throughout even the coldest of winters. During warmer months, Passive Houses make use of passive cooling techniques such as strategic shading to keep comfortably cool.

Passive Houses are praised for the high level of comfort they offer. Internal surface temperatures vary little from indoor air temperatures, even in the face of extreme outdoor temperatures. Special windows and a building envelope consisting of a highly insulated roof and floor slab as well as highly insulated exterior walls keep the desired warmth in the house – or undesirable heat out. A ventilation system imperceptibly supplies constant fresh air, making for superior air quality without unpleasant draughts. A highly efficient heat recovery unit allows for the heat contained in the exhaust air to be re-used.
