Design  This house is an Eco home with large areas of south facing triple glazing to take advantage of the sunshine and solar energy and a small area of north facing glazing to minimize heat loss. The building is super insulated to a standard well in excess of current Building Regulations to keep the running costs to a minimum. There is a sustainable heating & hot water system linking solar panels, wood burning stove, MVHR, radiators and a large thermal store hot water cylinder.  The Mechanical Ventilation and Heat Recovery unit (MVHR) reduces the energy required for space heating by preheating incoming air with an added option of using the induct heater to further warm the incoming air.  Masonry block internal walls act as a large storage heater. The stove and solar panels heat the water along with an electrical immersion to top up water heating.  The house also has ground floor and bathroom radiators connected to the sustainable heating system to supplement the other systems.    Awards  2019 - Angus Design awards – Winner of Development of the Decade category  2017 – The Saltire Society (National Award) – Multiple Dwellings at Old Orchard  2014 – Montrose Civic Society – Excellence in Civic Design  2013 - Dundee Institute of Architects   – Commendation in the Residential Property section.  In recognition of the quality of architecture and acknowledging low energy housing.  SCHOOLS, TRANSPORT AND AMENITIES  Ferryden is located on the southern banks of the River South Esk, close by Montrose. Ferryden has a good primary school and community life with the nearby local pub and restaurant, Diamond Lils, a Post office service on Friday afternoons for the village residents.
