Zero carbon living coming to Cumbria

LOCAL company Prospus Group are launching a new housing initiative where they are seeking to design and deliver new homes that are very low carbon to build and low/zero carbon to run. This is in response to an ever-increasing demand from clients who want to live in a beautiful contemporary home whilst living a greener life.

The company is driven by an ethos of putting the environment first, with their goal being to deliver beautifully designed, modern homes that offer low carbon living without compromising on architectural style, luxury and affordability.

Phil Graham, Director of Prospus Homes and lead architect says; “Our aim is for every home we design and build to produce, on balance, a net reduction in the amount of carbon in the atmosphere during its lifetime. The houses we design will bring contemporary and environmentally conscious homes to clients in Cumbria.”

The properties will be built with a focus on quality, efficiency, and renewable energy with energy efficient heating and power built into the fabric of the homes. In addition, state-of-the-art entertainment, automation, and user control technology will be a core feature of the homes.

Although a large portion of the build will be done off-site, local tradesmen and suppliers will be utilised to keep any carbon footprint to a minimum whilst generating local employment and retaining local skills. 

At present Prospus Homes are delivering single homes for clients looking to develop on building plots, but it is hoped that Prospus Homes will be able to deliver sustainable high-quality homes for communities across the county.

The wider Prospus Group specialises in all aspects of property consultancy including planning, architecture, project delivery, and funding. Prospus is committed to creating a positive impact for future generations and is heavily involved in developing renewable and low carbon infrastructure. The group also includes Prospus Marketing, a popular full-service marketing and graphic design agency based in Carlisle.
