Acorn Property Group has bought the land it needs to build another nine houses next to its existing Cross Farm development in Wedmore, Somerset. In keeping with the wider 31-home Cross Farm development, these homes will be designed to complement their village surroundings, but with modern features inside.
The exteriors will feature traditional materials such as stone, timber cladding and dark roof tiles while the interior is fitted with high-performance windows and German kitchens with stone worktops. All the homes will have off-road parking and gardens.
Features to support energy efficiency include enhanced building fabric, air source heat pumps and solar PV panels. Acorn will be making £182,000 of Section 106 contributions as part of its commitment to Cross Farm, of which £150,000 will be used to support new affordable housing.
