At Cookswood, we believe a truly exceptional home is one that not only captivates with beautiful design, but also excels in energy performance. We’re delighted to share that our homes have achieved EPC A ratings, the highest possible energy efficiency standard in the UK. This achievement reflects our ongoing commitment to sustainable construction practices that care for both our owners and the environment, creating homes that you can be proud of today and for years to come.

What is an EPC A Rating?
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) measures the energy efficiency of a home. Ratings go from G (lowest) to A (highest), and very few new build properties reach that top tier. Achieving an A rating means your home is highly energy-efficient, producing very low levels of carbon emissions and helping you save significantly on running costs.
Building Sustainably
Our homes are constructed to net-zero ready standards, meaning they are built with the future in mind. We combine high-performance insulation, air-tight building methods, low-energy systems, and eco-conscious materials to create a home that not only meets today’s standards but anticipates tomorrow’s.
Why It Matters
Lower Bills: Greater efficiency means lower energy costs, month after month.
Smaller Footprint: You’ll be helping the planet by reducing carbon emissions from day one.
Future-Proofed: As regulations tighten and energy prices fluctuate, A-rated homes will hold their value and remain compliant.
No Costly Renovations: Many older or even standard new build homes require expensive upgrades to meet the same standards. With a bespoke Cookswood property, it’s all built in from the start.
Not All Builds Are Equal
It’s easy to assume all new build homes are energy efficient, however many fall short of EPC A standards. At Cookswood, we’re proud to be setting ourselves apart by consistently meeting these exceptional benchmarks.
Your Dream Home, Future Ready
At Cookswood, building your dream home is more than a personal milestone - it’s a commitment to thoughtful living. You can enjoy a modern, stylish living in natural surroundings while knowing your home has been built to the highest eco-standards.
We’re proud of what we’re building, and we’re even prouder that it allows our owners to live well, sustainably.
