What makes our homes zero carbon?

Our zero carbon homes create as much prime energy as they need, thanks to their use of highly efficient air source heat pumps, extensive solar panels providing renewable energy and high levels of insulation. Prime energy is the regulated energy used to provide lighting, heating & hot water in the home. This is assessed by a standard procedure assuming a typical family lifestyle as indicated in the home’s Energy Performance Certificate.

Zero carbon living in the heart of Malmesbury

Joyce and David moved to White Poplars from a Georgian listed building in the heart of Glasgow to be closer to family. Having previously looked at retrofitting, any concerns over new build renewable technologies were overcome with encouragement from their environmentally plugged in children…

Culture and natural beauty

Malmesbury is home to well-known music, arts and gardens events and festivals. WOMAD is arguably the most well known of these, an international arts festival which is a kaleidoscope of colour and culture. The town is also the perfect base from which to explore some of the south west’s finest rural areas.

As well as the Cotswolds – itself a fascinating blend of limestone villages and rolling countryside – families can explore Conygre Mead Nature Reserve, Westonbirt Arboretum and the Cotswold Water Park. A few miles from Malmesbury is Kemble, another truly hidden gem, and where you can find – and follow – the source of the River Thames.
Well linked plus excellent schools

Well linked by road, with the M4 and M5 motorways nearby, there is also a strong bus service connecting Malmesbury to Chippenham and Swindon. For rail users, Kemble offers direct services to Cheltenham, Swindon and London, which themselves offer connections to the west, Wales and the north. Those requiring international travel are one hour from Bristol airport. All of this can be enjoyed with the added advantage of Malmesbury Church of England Primary School and Malmesbury Secondary School, both rated ‘Excellent’ by Ofsted.
Rich in outdoor history

Malmesbury revels in its wonderfully rich history, which includes tales of a flying monk and a hungry tiger that can both be explored at the town’s Athelstan Museum. Antiquity aside, it has a strong and close-knit community too, with outdoor living very much at its heart, thanks largely to an abundance of open spaces. The exquisite Abbey House Gardens are a wonderfully quiet haven in the centre of town, and they’re complemented by an abundance of natural walks, wildlife, cycle pathways and play areas.

The town itself has a weekly market consisting of locally sourced farm produce and craft stalls, and it’s a hub of quaint streets abuzz with independent and artisan retailers and fine-dining eateries. Those with an active nature can choose from a variety of leisure facilities and sports clubs, or simply relax in the nearby Whatley Manor Spa and Hotel.
England's oldest bourough

Bordering the Cotswolds and other areas of natural beauty, it enables you to enjoy the best of quintessential English rural living alongside the vibrancy of a buzzing market town situated close to the stylish town of Tetbury, and less than an hour from both Bath and Bristol.

This discreet development is situated on Burton Hill, a 10-minute walk from the centre of Malmesbury, and is very much in keeping with the local area itself. Named after the white poplar tree that grows here, the development boasts a considered design which is both contemporary and innovative while also proudly showcasing the best of local features and materials, such as the honey goldencoloured stone synonymous with Malmesbury’s charming streets and the wider Cotswolds.

The development itself boasts its own landscaped entrance whilst homes border open countryside. With the town itself encircled by the beautiful River Avon, you’re never far from some of the country’s most striking and iconic historic sites or Areas of Natural Beauty.
