An innovative design over three floors, the E type is designed with modern living in mind. The top floor is dedicated to the master suite and features a terrace.
Oxley Woods features a range of unique, eco-homes designed by Roger Stirk Harbour + Partners. The environmentally-friendly core design has already become a unique internal feature of each home.
The EcoHat is a new generation of chimney stack which sits on top of the services spine, filters all fresh air coming in to the building, and reuses hot air circulating through the stack - complemented by solar energy - to optimise energy consumption and as an optional extra can also provide passive solar water heating.
In addition to the EcoHat, there are plenty of other energysavers hidden in each Oxley Woods home. These include high levels of insulation - much of it made from recycled materials - to an air-tight build. Such features combined could potentially help
occupiers make significant savings on their energy bills as well as helping each property to achieve the maximum National Home Energy Rating and a ‘Very Good’ EcoHomes classification. From that starting point the designs have been gradually refined not only to meet climate change regulations today and in the future, but to include some of the solutions to the challenge of carbon emissions. Before construction started at Oxley Woods, Taylor Wimpey had a Site Specific Environmental Action Plan (SSEAP) drawn up, detailing flora, fauna and archaeology and the controls needed to minimise impact. Then, as building began, the company used timber and additional materials from environmentally sustainable sources, set out in its Green Procurement Policy. Finally, Taylor Wimpey minimised the use of toxic and hazardous materials on-site where possible, and installed water-saving dual flush toilets, low
emission boilers and energy-efficient (A rated) white goods.
