The Cygnus is a carefully designed two-bedroom dormer home, built to Passivhaus standards for exceptional energy efficiency, thermal comfort, and low running costs. With a high-specification finish and a strong emphasis on sustainable living, The Cygnus combines comfort, practicality, and environmental responsibility.
A private, paved front garden leads into a bright kitchen and dining area, featuring a contemporary Howdens kitchen with integrated appliances and a sleek Silestone worktop. Also on the ground floor is a stylish wet room, a separate living room with views over the landscaped rear garden, and a generously-sized double bedroom that also overlooks the garden, ideal for flexible living.
An exposed softwood staircase leads to the upper floor, where you’ll find a second bedroom and a useful storage cupboard on the landing.
The home is equipped with a range of energy-efficient features, including triple-glazed windows, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR), an air source heat pump (ASHP), and solar PV panels. Oak veneer-encased window surrounds throughout and shutters on selected ground floor windows bring warmth and character to the interior.
With its thoughtful layout, refined finishes, and strong eco credentials, The Cygnus offers sustainable, high-quality living in a beautifully compact form.
