Livesey Green development nominated for award
Innovative Blackburn project shortlisted for "Sustainable Housing Award"
TWIN Valley Homes’ Livesey Green development has been shortlisted for a prestigious Sustainable Housing Award.
The £3.3million Blackburn development has been shortlisted in the Sustainable Larger Social Housing Project of the Year category for developments over 25 homes.
Sustainability is one of the most pressing issues 
affecting the social housing sector. Britain’s homes are responsible for a huge proportion of the UK’s carbon dioxide emissions. This is why all new homes will have to meet tough new zero carbon standards by 2016.
And the 31-home scheme is a mix of shared ownership properties and those for rent and features some of the latest green technology to reduce the carbon footprint and energy bills.
The houses have been designed by Twin Valley Homes’ in-house architects and managed by the in-house development team.
Kevin Ruth, Twin Valley Homes’ Executive Director, said: “To meet the needs of the future, Twin Valley Homes is committed to providing sustainable, affordable and energy efficient housing in all our new build projects.
“And it’s testament to the quality of our in-house team and our contractors that we have been shortlisted for such a prestigious award.”
The Sustainable Housing Awards celebrates the projects and organisations at the vanguard of housing sustainability best practice.
The houses for sale are available to view at www.myfrontdoor.org.uk.
