Joy Cottage is a 3 bedroom home constructed in 2021 and conforms to the passive house standard.

Passive house is a standard for energy efficient buildings which dramatically reduces energy needs, resulting in buildings that require little to no energy for space heating or cooling. 

Joy Cottage has an EPC rating of A, putting it in the 0.2% of UK homes with such a rating.

The owners oversaw the construction project from beginning to end and would be delighted to share their experience with this exemplar of high-quality low-energy building.
