Nestled within the Waverley development in South Yorkshire, Homes by honey is reimagining what modern living can look like, combining aspirational design with clever use of space. A key element of this vision is their innovative adoption of the Room in the Roof concept, which unlocks a new dimension of comfort, light and liveability.
With VELUX as a trusted partner, Homes by honey is enhancing its designs to make the most of every square metre while delivering standout homes with undeniable style.
Rethinking space: the Room in the Roof advantage
Unlike traditional layouts, the Room in the Roof approach transforms the top floor into a fully functional, light-filled living space. In homes like ‘The Primrose’, the upper level becomes more than just an attic – it’s a luxury retreat that offers quiet separation from the rest of the house, perfect for parents or guests.
This smart design not only creates valuable extra living space but also allows homes to be built with a smaller footprint. By achieving the same square footage as a two-storey home within a two-and-a-half-storey design, more plots can be accommodated on-site, maximising both land use and sales potential.
Bringing in light, creating comfort
VELUX roof windows play a central role in the Room in the Roof concept, delivering natural daylight from above and creating an airy, expansive feel that transforms the upper floor. Beyond aesthetics, VELUX roof windows also contribute to improved ventilation across the entire house, drawing fresh air in and pushing stagnant air out. For residents, this means brighter spaces, better air quality and homes that feel as good as they look.
A partnership that reflects shared values
For Homes by honey, collaboration with VELUX was a natural choice. Both share a passion for quality, innovation and beautiful design, making the integration of VELUX roof windows seamless.
Anne Bagshaw, sales director, of Homes by honey, said: “At Honey, our aim has always been simple: letting light in, maximising space and creating homes that reflect our ethos of light, space and style. Working with VELUX has been a natural fit—it’s a partnership built on shared values and trust.”
“These homes truly showcase the difference great design and thoughtful daylight can make.”
Designed for how people want to live
Homes by honey continues to lead with smart, stylish solutions that elevate the everyday. By embracing Room in the Roof and partnering with VELUX, they’re delivering a new standard in family living, one that combines practicality with a sense of retreat.
