A stunning new chapter is being written in Farnham’s West Street with the launch of 23 zero-carbon apartments. This unique development returns a once-disused space in the heart of this market town to its residential roots, offering a variety of luxury one and two-bedroom apartments.

Nestled behind two heritage-listed buildings, The Courtyard provides a serene oasis and features the Grade I listed St. Andrews Church as a stunning backdrop. But beyond the aesthetics, it pioneers sustainable living with an intelligent solar-sharing system, graphene nano-technology heating, and a solar heat battery hot water storage system.

Chapter One begins with the ambitious development of two pairs of semi-detached homes in the charming locale of Hampton, Richmond Upon Thames. What sets these residences apart is the innovative use of technology and sustainable construction practices to ensure they meet the highest energy standards.

The structural backbone of these homes is formed by Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), which not only provide robust support but also contribute to superior insulation. This, in turn, enhances the energy efficiency of the homes, reducing the need for excessive heating or cooling.

Arriving Spring 2026.
