ABOUT THE HOW DEVELOPMENT

EXCLUSIVE

Set within 17 acres of stunning parkland, The How will be a private gated community that is in complete harmony with the beautiful countryside that surrounds it. With a mix of tended areas and more wild areas left to nature, for everyone to enjoy. Homes and pockets of activity sit along a connecting spine that link the 5 hectares of Houghton Meadow within the historic grounds of The How itself.

Every home is at the leading edge of energy efficiency and sustainability, with clever but discrete technology generating power and managing the temperature and air quality, so that you can live healthy, happy lives with a clear conscience.

The timing is perfect. Trends in work have changed for the better. Employers see the need for people to work away from the office - often actively encouraging it, at least for part of the week - and people are more productive and happier when they have a better work/life balance.

Additionally, more and more people are choosing to leave the daily commute behind altogether and work for themselves, freelancing, consulting, or starting creative businesses on their own terms.

GREEN

The unique countryside setting is so beautiful, but the project from the outset has been committed to work with it, not against it. It would be easy to flatten it and build just another housing estate... but The How is destined to be very different and leave a long-lasting legacy which will be admired by generations to come.

Historic trails and bridleways are connected to the design. Step out of your front door, turn a corner and within minutes you can be out in nature, with picturesque countryside walks to explore at your leisure.

Homes are right for today and ready for tomorrow - contemporary, clean, and modern with a fabric first approach that ensures a comfortable, low-energy home for life.

'Fabric first' may not be a term you're familiar with, but it is changing the way new homes are designed and built. Fabric first uses cutting edge design, material technologies and specialist workmanship to minimise the need for heating and cooling, reducing heat loss and insulating beyond industry standards.

All 14 houses make best use of natural light, maximising heat gain in the cooler months and reducing it in the summer, so that homes can be both beautiful and energy efficient - aesthetic doesn't need to take a back seat to the need to reduce the impact of a home throughout its life.

LIVING

The How itself is situated adjacent to the River Ouse with a short walk to the Thicket Path accessed via a private gate from the development and is ideal for cycling, running and watersports. The grounds themselves are perfect for early morning walks or sunset strolls through its beautiful mature gardens. Follow on with a walk through medieval ridge and furrow meadows bursting with wildflowers so rare, they've been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

Hemingford Meadow, described by Daniel Defoe in 1724/6 as 'the most beautiful in any part of England, one of the most agreeable sights of its kind in the whole world', overlooks the town. Also accessed from the town, near the grade 1 listed parish church of All Saints, is Holt Island Nature Reserve, once an important source of willow osiers for basket making. This green walk of just over 2 miles (5,000 steps) is along a riverside footpath to climb a track through woodland, through a stile and into an open field. Follow with an amble through ancient and unspoilt
meadows. Tranquil places to sit, rest and have a picnic. Very high count of wild flowers, insects and birdlife.
