News for July 2005_______________________________________________________________________________________ Five Eco Homes for Sale in Somerset
Searching for
that elusive Eco-home!
We frequently
get enquiries from people looking to purchase a more environmentally
friendly home and often in the South West. Unfortunately there are
only a few small developers currently building homes to high
sustainable standards in the UK. HHP was therefore very pleased to
hear about a new attractive & innovative sustainable development in
Somerset built by SW Eco-Homes. The Director of SW Eco-Homes,
Charles Couzens, has been known to HHP for some time. Charles has
been heavily involved in promoting sustainable development for many
years and is also currently a Director of the 'Somerset Trust for
Sustainable Development'.
Please see
details below about this rare opportunity to purchase an
environmentally friendly home. If you would like further
information, please do not contact HHP direct but use the contact
details at the bottom of the page.
However we would be interested to know if you look seriously at
purchasing one of the homes and what you think of them. You may also
wish to mention to SW Eco-Homes that you were made aware of the
homes from HHP.
