Sustainable living for today and tomorrow
EDDINGTON ITSELF HAS BEEN CAREFULLY PLANNED TO ENABLE YOU TO MINIMISE YOUR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.
Eddington’s excellent public transport network alongside it’s safe pedestrian and cycle routes enable you to travel around more sustainably, while green infrastructure and energy efficiency support the eco features of the homes. A central energy hub provides heating and hot water direct to every home, with a sustainable urban drainage system seeing rainwater collected, stored, and filtered, before being pumped back to homes where it is used for washing machines and flushing toilets. The natural landscape has also been carefully considered at Eddington, incorporating wetlands, meadows and planting schemes to create a rich and sustainable environment.
Smart Design to protect the environment
AT KNIGHTS PARK, SUSTAINABILITY IS NOT JUST AN ADD-ON. IT IS ONE OF THE ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLES ON WHICH OUR HOMES ARE BUILT.
Our homes are designed to be highly energy efficient with eco-friendly features, which not only benefit the environment but also make them more comfortable for you to live in and cheaper to run. To meet the Code for Sustainable Homes Level 5, the properties have been developed to reduce their energy and carbon dioxide emissions by at least 85% from 2010 levels. At Knights Park, you can enjoy a beautifully designed modern home that is environmentally responsible, without compromising on comfort or style.

Features
Low Solar Gain Glazing
The glazing used in many of the windows at Knights Park help to eradicate solar gain, so rooms don’t get too hot in the summer.
Rooflight*
Selected properties feature strategically placed rooflights to provide an extra source of daylight all year round, as well as an efficient way to release warm air during the height of summer.
Extra Large Windows
The large windows used throughout Knights Park let in plenty of natural light.
Smart Meters
Smart meters are provided so you can keep an eye on your electrical consumption.
Triple Glazing
Many windows boast triple-glazed design combined with cutting-edge heat-reflective coatings. These features reduce heat loss by up to 80% when compared to single-glazed windows and 50% less than typical double glazing. This enables you to relax or rest by the windows without experiencing uncomfortable cold drafts, while also providing superior sound insulation.
Eco Appliances
Energy efficient kitchen appliances, aerated showerheads and taps help keep electricity and water consumption low.
Domestic Recycling
Our kitchens come equipped with an integrated waste sorting system, making it easy for you to manage your household waste responsibly. Additionally, certain homes will include composting bins.
Cycle Store
All homes have a secure parking place for bikes – one for every person.
Airtightness
All joining elements of the buildings are virtually sealed, and common air leakage problems, like letterboxes, have been solved through design. On most new build developments of more than 40 homes, only 5% of the properties would be tested for airtightness – at Knights Park, every home will be thoroughly tested.
Warm and Draught-Free
High levels of insulation and triple glazing keep homes warm and the heating turned down.
