A unique custom-build homes development situated in the Lake District National Park has been announced as a finalist for a national award.
Wellbank, at Bootle in Cumbria, with beautiful beaches, dramatic coastline and majestic mountains on its doorstep, has been shortlisted for a national Build It Award.
Wellbank offers residents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own their own Lake District plot and have a custom-built home designed for the way they live their lives.
The site offers homeowners an unrivalled active lifestyle with an on-site swimming pool, as well as walking, cycling and riding routes from the front door, and watersports at nearby lakes and on the Cumbrian coast.
A safe and secure environment, surrounded by green spaces, Wellbank also incorporates the latest green technologies in homeowners’ architect-designed energy-efficient properties, from solar panels and battery storage, to air, ground and water heat pumps.
Wellbank has been shortlisted in the Best Custom Build Project or Model category in the Build It Awards which bring together architects and manufacturers in recognition of innovation and excellence in the custom and self-build home sector.
Janet Nuttall, of Wellbank, said: “All our expert team at Wellbank are delighted to have been shortlisted for this prestigious award.
“We make the custom-build process easy for those who buy a plot at Wellbank. Our experts help buyers choose their ideal fully-serviced plot with planning permission already in place, and support them every step of the way through designing and building their dream home.
“We are all hugely proud of the community we are building here in the Lake District National Park where homeowners can enjoy the best of both worlds – living in a stunning natural environment while at the same time being well-connected with fast fibre to property digital connectivity, and good transport links.
“We are also particularly excited about the addition of a leisure hub at the site which, with its swimming pool and cafe, will further enhance homeowners’ opportunities to live a healthy and active life.
“We are looking forward to the awards evening and celebrating with all the other finalists from the custom and self-build home sector ground the UK.”
The Build It Awards winners will be announced at a glittering gala dinner on November 8, hosted by comedian Emmanuel Sonubi, at the Hilton Bankside in London.
