A Smarter Way to Live

Hill Rise has been designed for the way people actually live today - efficient, comfortable, and future-ready homes that perform well regardless of lifestyle.

Built Beyond Standard Expectations

Every home at Hill Rise is constructed to standards that go significantly beyond current Building Regulations. This means better insulation, improved construction quality, and a more consistent indoor environment throughout the year.

A-Rated Energy Performance

All homes achieve an A-rated Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), placing them among the most energy-efficient new homes available. This rating allows buyers to confidently compare performance against other properties on a like-for-like basis.

Designed for Low-Carbon Living

Hill Rise homes are fully electric, supporting the UK’s transition away from fossil fuels. As the National Grid continues to decarbonise, these homes are already aligned with the future of sustainable living.

Solar Power as Standard

Each home includes solar photovoltaic (PV) panels, designed to generate enough electricity annually to cover the energy used by core systems such as:

• Heating

• Hot water

• Lighting

• Ventilation

This also means that, based on standard assessment methods, these homes can achieve net zero carbon emissions for regulated energy use.

Comfort Through Better Construction

Enhanced airtightness standards mean fewer drafts and better heat retention. In practical terms, this creates:

• A more stable indoor temperature

• Improved comfort year-round

• Reduced heat loss compared to typical new-build homes

Every home is tested on completion to ensure it meets these high standards.

Efficient Heating Technology

Air Source Heat Pumps (ASHPs) are used to provide heating and hot water. These systems are highly efficient and designed to work effectively with the fabric of the home to deliver consistent warmth.

Designed for All Lifestyles

Energy use in any home ultimately depends on how it’s lived in. Whether someone prefers a warmer home with higher usage or takes a more energy-conscious approach, Hill Rise homes are designed to support both ends of the spectrum.

Rather than focusing on estimated savings, which can vary significantly, Hill Rise offers:

• A highly efficient starting point

• Greater control over energy use

• A home that performs well under a wide range of living patterns

Clear and Comparable Performance

Energy ratings are calculated using a nationally recognised methodology, ensuring consistency and transparency. This allows purchasers to make informed decisions, knowing they are comparing homes on a fair and standardised basis.
