The house is sited on 25 acres as part of a co-housing community of 22 households who collaboratively manage the land and facilities. Facilities are partially off grid: water is from a borehole, heating is from a wood-chip powered district heating system, electricity from an 85kw community-owned solar array means the community is often self-sufficient in Summer months. Over 11,000 sq ft of buildings provide offices, co-working space, artists studios, meeting space and guest rooms. The site has horses, stables, chickens, individual and shared allotments, shared polytunnels and children’s play facilities.
