Solar thermal hot-water and MVHR for excellent air quality

This four-bedroom detached home in Oake is a rare Passivhaus-certified property offering net-zero carbon living and exceptionally low running costs. At around 2,970 sq ft on a very large plot, it combines spacious contemporary living with high-spec sustainable systems including a large solar array, battery backup, solar thermal hot water and whole-house mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR).
Internally the specification is high: bespoke British kitchens, high-end sanitaryware, Italian porcelain tiling, smart home integration and Velux climate control provide comfort and convenience. The house includes a private borehole with filtration and on-site water treatment for reduced reliance on mains services, plus a ten-year build warranty for added reassurance.
Important practical points: the property uses an oil-fired boiler as its main heating source and sits in a medium flood-risk zone. Broadband speeds are very slow in this location and the on-site water treatment is shared/off-grid, so buyers should check service arrangements and insurance implications. A reservation fee applies and photographic material may include show-home images.
This home will suit buyers seeking long-term energy savings and countryside tranquillity close to Taunton. Families benefit from nearby primary schools and independent schooling options within easy reach; investors will note strong sustainability credentials but must factor in local connectivity and service arrangements.
