Both the new-build homes at the Old Glebe are detached four-bedroomed houses with spacious and well-proportioned rooms totalling over 2,000 square feet (191.8 sq m) of living space.
Designed by Carew Kelly Architects, these A-rated homes combine a strikingly modern appearance with contemporary building materials, featuring eye-catching exteriors and large, Scandinavian style, double-glazed windows and doors.
Inside, there’s a host of high-spec contemporary features including bespoke kitchens incorporating quartz worktops, flat panelled built-in bedroom wardrobes, top quality sanitary ware in all bathrooms and the best of wall and floor tiling throughout.
A high standard of internal finishes includes spacious living areas, high ceilings,
quality joinery, satin finished woodwork and all rooms painted as standard.
Lower heating bills are assured, with each of these energy efficient homes featuring an A-rated heat pump, zonal controlled central heating, double-glazed windows and exterior doors, and a high level of insulation that together add up to a toasty A2 Building Energy Rating (BER) rating in line with Nearly Zero Energy Building (NZEB) standards.
With safety and security in mind, each house has carbon monoxide monitors, smoke detectors and window restrictors on the upper floors, as well as being wired for an alarm system. Connectivity is assured by the provision of Cat 6 cabling for high-speed broadband.
Outside, each house is provided with a low-maintenance driveway providing parking for two cars with access via a side gate leading to the back garden.
