SUMMERFIELD HOMES has commenced site preparation at Middlezoy, on the Somerset Levels, building 26 houses. The mixed development will include ten much needed affordable properties, providing quality homes in the heart of the village.
Located close to the village hall and primary school, the site off Back Lane known as Saxon Fields will benefit from new access and highways improvements as part of the scheme. The development will provide houses ranging from one to four bedrooms and all backed by a ten-year National House-Building Council (NHBC) warranty.
As well as delivering affordable homes, Summerfield is proud to introduce its first development of net zero homes. This means that each dwelling has been designed to meet the total carbon emissions set by the Building Regulation targets by generating as much renewable energy as it is targeted to consume.
The new homes will have solar PV panels, air source heat pumps, shower saves, and thermally efficient external features incorporated in the design, helping reduce energy costs while lowering their environmental footprint.
Ed Khodabandehloo, Managing Director at Summerfield Homes, said: “We are thrilled to have started work on our site in Middlezoy. This development will blend sustainable living with village life providing high quality energy efficient homes for local families.”
While benefiting from rural, village life, the occupiers of the new houses will be within easy distance of the centres of Bridgwater and Langport and have access to some of Somerset’s most scenic countryside.
