Three-Level High-Performance Home with Ground Source Heating & Full Project Delivery


At Charleville Close, we delivered a newly constructed ICF (Insulated Concrete Formwork) mews home, including a fully fitted basement, built to an A1 BER standard and engineered for long-term energy performance.


Structural System & Build Approach

The property was constructed using ICF methodology, providing:

  • Superior thermal performance

  • High structural strength

  • Excellent airtightness

  • Long-term durability

The build included a fully constructed and fitted basement level, creating valuable additional living space across three floors.


Energy & Mechanical Strategy

This home was designed and delivered to achieve A1 BER performance, incorporating:


  • Underfloor heating spanning three floors

  • Ground source heat pump system

  • Heat recovery ventilation system

  • High-performance building envelope


The result is a home with exceptionally low energy demand, consistent internal comfort, and long-term operational efficiency.


Internal & External Finish

Internally, the property was fully fitted out to a high-specification standard across all levels, including the basement.

Externally, the façade combines:


  • Brick slip detailing

  • Acrylic render finish


Creating a clean, contemporary aesthetic aligned with the surrounding mews environment.


Project Delivery & Management


Beyond construction, we provided:


Full project management


Procurement support


Coordination of specialist services


Structured programme delivery


From groundworks to final finishes, the project was delivered under a controlled, performance-led construction process.
