It is expected to appeal to a range of homebuyers including growing families, first-time buyers and downsizers.

Special green features include the free option of including a home charging unit for an electric car at the property.

Pam Reardon, sales and marketing director for Ward Homes, said: “Electric cars and electric car charging units are new to most people but it makes sense to add them now as standard features in family homes.”

Prices at Sholden Fields range from £247,995 to £317,995.
