Blueoak Estates and VELUX have revolutionised open-plan living designs, creating light-filled havens that blend in with rural surroundings.

Blueoak Estates & VELUX creating communities that embrace bright, fresh living

Tollemache Green, a new family-friendly housing community, is encircled by countryside, woodland areas and flower-brimming hedgerows, with the Shropshire Union Canal flowing nearby.

It was given the title Smaller Housing Scheme of the Year 2023 by the North West Homebuilder Awards in recognition of its outstanding sustainability efforts and positive impact on the surrounding environment. The development set a new standard in eco-friendly living.

The three- to five-bedroom homes within the bespoke twenty-house development have underfloor heating, electric car charging ports, unique kitchen designs, lots of natural daylight and ventilation and wide-open countryside views framed by VELUX roof windows.

Tollemache Green’s homes offer charm and luxury specifications, bringing the whole community together with a local village hall, an orchard and a children’s playground to provide the perfect escape from daily life.

Creating spacious, private and scenic homes together

The Blueoak Estates and VELUX partnership has revolutionised open-plan living designs, creating light-filled havens that seamlessly blend in with the rural surroundings. To achieve this, a variety of VELUX products have been incorporated to bring the best out of each individual home, from the VELUX single roof window to the Quattro combinations.

Enhancing the homes’ design in Tollemache Green with VELUX roof windows has increased the feeling of spaciousness, privacy and expanded the superb views.

Elegantly designed to maximise daylight

With a shared vision for bright and sustainable homes, Blueoak Estates and VELUX have focused on flooding each residence with daylight. Across the different plots, roof windows are installed in key living areas like the kitchen and dining room, allowing homeowners to enjoy the things they love, including family time and entertaining friends.

Each home features VELUX roof windows, which are meticulously designed and engineered to ensure optimal daylight penetration through the glazing. With an abundance of natural light, the need for artificial lighting has been significantly reduced, making the Tollemache Green homes naturally brighter and more energy-efficient.


Healthy homes full of fresh air

Blueoak Estates is renowned for creating healthy buildings with imaginative finishing touches, and Tollemache Green is a prime example of this.

With VELUX roof windows, natural ventilation facilitates the stack effect which keeps air moving throughout the homes, circulating hot air out and replacing it with cooler air. This system expels harmful indoor substances, including humidity and pollutants, which maintains high air quality, provides comfort and improves the residents’ overall quality of life.

Holly Palmer, marketing manager at Blueoak Estates, said: “Partnering with VELUX significantly enhanced our marketing efforts by highlighting the superior design and quality of our homes. The inclusion of VELUX roof windows has become a key selling point, as potential buyers are drawn to the increased natural light, expansive views and the overall sense of spaciousness they provide. This collaboration has allowed us to differentiate our developments in a competitive market, attract a broader range of buyers and consistently receive positive buyer feedback.”
