Leading global property consultant Knight Frank shared an opportunity for homebuyers seeking to combine luxury living with substantial energy savings in 2025.
Acorn Property Group’s residential development at Manor Court in Greet, Gloucestershire showcases how smart home technology and sustainable features can reduce household costs without compromising on style.
The exclusive collection of just six 4- & 5-bedroom houses all achieve an outstanding EPC A Rating – the highest possible energy performance certification. Each home features money-saving technologies including solar PV panels, high-performance triple glazing, electric vehicle charging points, and air-source heat pumps, offering significant savings on annual energy costs.
“With energy costs continuing to be a key consideration for homebuyers in 2025, Manor Court delivers exceptional value,” says Katy Reynolds, Associate at Knight Frank Cheltenham New Homes team. “Knight Frank research data has shown that new-build homes like these deliver average savings of 56% on annual energy costs compared to existing properties. These savings encompass lighting, heating, and hot water usage, making a real difference to household budgets.”
Acorn’s in-house interior design team has created an inviting space within the Show Home, with a soft neutral palette and layered textures, perfectly balancing classic Cotswold charm with contemporary comfort. The traditional shaker-style kitchen, complete with Belfast sink and 90cm Range Master cooker, exemplifies this blend of timeless style and modern functionality.
James Groombridge, Regional Managing Director of Acorn’s Cardiff office, notes: “Manor Court perfectly demonstrates how modern English country-style living can be both luxurious and energy-efficient. Prospective buyers can immediately envision their future in these thoughtfully designed spaces.”
The development’s layout maximises countryside views while preserving the natural setting and established trees. Five properties create an intimate courtyard reminiscent of traditional agricultural architecture, while the sixth standalone house, Honeybourne, features its own private gated access.
Located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Manor Court offers easy access to both the market town of Winchcombe and the Regency town of Cheltenham, known for its excellent schools and vibrant festival calendar.
