Environmentally friendly and low cost, coastal living

Driftwood Mews is a one-of-a-kind ‘net zero ready’ development designed with the future in mind.

The modern two bedroom houses are built for people that want environmentally friendly and low-cost living.

A Driftwood Mews house is a ‘zero net energy’ building as they generate their own energy using clean renewable resources.

Each house is significantly more energy efficient than standard new homes. Driftwood Mews houses are constructed using a super-insulated timber frame, keeping homes naturally cool during the Summer and warm during Winter.

The outcome is residents will save money as they generate more energy than they use. In addition, houses are fully electric and built ready for battery storage.

Each home features an electric car charging point and secure cycle storage to encourage sustainable travel and active living, with immediate access to extensive coastal and in-land cycle-ways.
