Energy-efficient homes helping you up save to £2,600 on energy bills

New build homes are built to the latest environmental standards and are up to 60% cheaper to run in comparison to an older build property. On average, based on recent energy figures the predicted cost of living in a new build apartment would be £1237 per year and £1539 for a detached house, due to the many energy efficient features helping to save money on the bills.

Every aspect of our Hill homes has been carefully considered to help make life that much easy and cheaper! From the aerated showerheads and taps and energy efficient appliances used to help keep electricity and water consumption low, to solar PV panels, triple glazing, air tightness and many more, helping us to achieve both a Code of Sustainable Homes Level 5 rating and a 'A' EPC rating.

Environmentally Friendly
While the financial benefits are reason enough to buy a new home, the appeal becomes stronger still when the environmental aspects are also taken into account. Not only are new homes more energy efficient, they generate fewer carbon emissions, so as well as saying money, you're also doing your bit for the environment. It is estimated new build homes on average emit 1.4 tonnes of carbon over the period of one year which is significantly lower than an older home which emits 3.7 tonnes annually.
