House Plans: Period Property Awarded Passivhaus Status

Build It

When Paul and Glenys Ferguson decided to renovate their period property, they didn’t know their home will end up receiving Passivhaus certification.

After living 30 years in a draughty Victorian end-of-terrace, and with a roof that had suffered extreme damage with the Lancaster winds, the couple decided it was time for a change.

Paul and Glenys originally considered self building, but soon realised plots were hard to come by – besides, they really enjoyed the local area.

And so, with the help of architect Andrew Yeats, they embarked in creating a home to suit their lifestyle.
