Case study: College Way, Bilborough

The development provides a mix of two and three bedroom homes, including bungalows, to support the housing need of the area. The new homes have been designed for Nottingham Community Housing Association to achieve energy rating A.

There was a special focus to make these homes energy efficient, to reduce costs for the new residents. The new homes are completely gas-free, and fitted with air-source heat pumps and PV solar panels. A lot of thought has also gone into the design of the outdoor spaces to increase biodiversity, including wildflower plants, shallow ponds and hedgerows with fruit trees.
