The building design speaks to quality, durability and long term value. We have focused on low impact, responsibly sourced products and materials. Design features such as open walkways and a communal roof yard complete with fireplace and BBQ provide spaces that promote quality interactions and a sense of belonging.
Ferrars & York has an exceptional average energy rating of 8.6 stars (out of 10), which means more comfort for occupants due to consistent air temperatures, better acoustic performance, significantly lower energy bills and a lower carbon footprint.
