Energy bills will be significantly reduced as there are a range of high technology energy saving features: a solar panel (optional) to use the free energy from the sun to heat hot water, a heat recovery unit that uses normally waste heat from the boiler  (saving gas throughout the year but especially in winter), passive solar heating from large high-spec, south-facing double-glazed windows drawing in light and warmth, and high levels of insulation. Other "green" measures include high insulation timber frames from sustainable forests so you save money as well as help save the planet!
