Summary of Property

Fantastic new highly energy efficient four bedroom house TO BE BUILT in the sought after Shropshire village of Wistanswick. Harvest House is available to purchase off plan, which gives the potential owner the opportunity to tailor the specification to their particular needs. This includes possible amendments to the downstairs layout to have a single garage, move the utility area into the garage, expand the kitchen into the current utility room, and combine the lounge and study. Anything is possible within reason! Czero expects the house to be available built from October 2012.

An ‘A’ rated Energy Performance Certificate sets this house apart – you wouldn’t buy a ‘B’ rated fridge, so why should you settle for a ‘B’ rated house?

Environmentally Friendly Features

Highly insulated building envelope (masonry construction)
Renewable energy heating system with Air Source Heat Pump and integrated PV (see below)
Automated ventilation system for improved air quality and pollution control

Additional feed-in-tariff income could come from installing more PV tiles (designed amount is optimised to the building’s actual heating and electricity needs)

Further Information

Harvest House has all the benefits of a modern ecohouse without compromise. For developer Czero, Eco means “ECOnomy through Energy Efficiency.” The property has been intelligently designed to help minimise its electricity and water usage without making the house more expensive, and while still looking like a normal house. The cost savings in the future could be considerable.

Czero is uniquely incentivising the purchaser of Harvest House with its two year “Power PromiseTM”. Under the Power PromiseTM, Czero will pay the expected cost of “regulated energy use” (heating, hot water and light) for the first two years, in return for electricity usage data, and will work with the owners during that term to make sure they are able to keep bills low and use the house most efficiently.

Harvest House is available to purchase off plan, which gives the potential owner the opportunity to tailor the specification to their particular needs. This includes possible amendments to the downstairs layout to have a single garage, move the utility area into the garage, expand the kitchen into the current utility room, and combine the lounge and study. Anything is possible within reason! Czero expects the house to be available built from October 2012.


*The heating system is an Air Source Heat Pump linked to underfloor heating to all ground floor rooms, and radiators upstairs, plus integrated PV roof tiles. There is an additional wood burning stove in the lounge.

This system is designed to optimise the use of energy at any time of year, with much more stable internal temperatures. The solar panels will be eligible for Feed-in-Tariff payments to the owner, and the heat pump may also be eligible for the Renewable Heat Incentive, being considered by the Government for introduction in October 2012.
