Evans Homes has introduced an innovative energy-saving upgrade to Plot 8 The Sowerby, offering the future homeowner a smarter, more sustainable way to manage household energy costs.

This detached four-bedroom home at Skelton Lakes has been fitted with a high-performance Solax IES hybrid unit and battery, working alongside integrated solar panels to create a cutting-edge energy storage solution. The system allows the homeowner to store excess solar power generated during the day and use it later when electricity prices rise, significantly improving the home’s energy efficiency.

When paired with a flexible energy tariff, this system could deliver estimated savings of up to £10,000 over ten years, helping the eventual buyer reduce energy bills and take control of how and when electricity is used. The technology ensures that stored renewable energy can be used at peak times, meaning less reliance on the grid and more predictable long-term costs.

This upgrade reflects Evans Homes’ commitment to building homes that combine comfort, quality, and sustainability. For the buyer of Plot 8, it means day-to-day living that is both smarter and more cost-effective — without compromising on design or space.

Thoughtfully designed for modern living, The Sowerby offers four spacious bedrooms, including two ensuites, and a family bathroom spread across three floors. The ground floor features a large open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area, designed as the heart of the home, alongside stylish finishes and contemporary detailing throughout.

Plot 8, priced at £449,500, also benefits from an impressive exterior and a setting within the walled garden at Skelton Lakes. With a beautiful outlook across open fields, it offers privacy and a sense of calm while remaining just a short distance from Leeds city centre.

At Skelton Lakes, all homes are designed with energy efficiency in mind — featuring solar panels, EV charging points, and sustainable materials throughout the build. The addition of the Solax IES hybrid unit and battery to Plot 8 takes this one step further, offering tangible savings and long-term value for its future owner.

To make the move as simple as possible, Evans Homes also offers Part Exchange and Assisted Move schemes — ideal for those looking to secure their next home with a house to sell.

For those seeking a modern home that blends design excellence with genuine energy savings, Plot 8 The Sowerby stands out as a unique opportunity — combining thoughtful innovative technology for a lasting financial benefit.
