Show homes launched at 'Eco' development in Northampton
Barratt Northampton has launched two show homes at its latest development in Upton, Northampton that includes environmentally friendly features as standard. Elysian Fields, off the Weedon Road, is a short distance from the housebuilders already successful scheme NU@D2. It also features an array of eco initiatives which have been proving popular with buyers.
Show homes at Elysian Fields include the four bedroom Midas, and the six bedroom Atlas - offering buyers a true insight into how well modern living can work with ‘green' initiatives.
The scheme will consist of 49, three, four, five and six bedroom homes, and include rainwater harvesting systems which captures rain from roofs to re-use in the home.
Most plots have solar powered hot water, and 25 homes include solar PV (PhotoVoltaics) panels which produce electrical power.
Another feature are ‘green' roofs, included on most garages. Made of sedum, which grows to a max 75mm high, they aid storm water management by reducing rainwater run off.
Three to six bedroom styles are on the first sales release. Prices currently range from £189,950 - £395,000.
Jenny Andrew, sales negotiator, said: "We've seen tremendous feedback from our ‘eco' homes at NU@D2, and are expecting the same interest in Elysian Fields.
"The show homes reflect modern living today - spacious, sociable and flexible layouts, a convenient location, and eco features as standard - which help the environment and homeowners' budgets."
Because of the technologies, Elysian Fields has achieved an ‘Eco Excellent' rating with the EcoHomes Standard - Excellent being the highest mark.
Barratt has also included a clever mix of render, brick and stone detailing, along with prominent elevations, to create striking looking homes.
The development is situated close to shops, a school, the Sixfields leisure complex and the M1. Northampton has a good range of shopping and a direct train link to London Euston.
