Description

Rooftop Housing Group is working alongside Speller Metcalf to deliver 30 new houses as part of a £3.5 million development to create a mixture of affordable rent and shared ownership properties, with the support of Tewkesbury Borough Council and funding through Homes England.

Each home is designed to the ‘Rooftop Living Homes Standard’, which promotes great design and environmental sustainability.

Using renewable energy sources each property will be highly efficient, meeting the EPC ‘A’ rating to create warm, energy and future-proof homes for residents with sustainable features including rainwater harvesting, compost bins and cycle areas.

This scheme is part of our plan to deliver 1000 homes by 2023 and is set to complete in January 2022.
