Idylic locations Space to live and breathe We only chose the best locations. Preferably on the edge of bigger towns and in greener, village locations that have more space to breathe.
We always consider the sensitivity of the local community and the impact that a new build may have on their location.
We design our homes by choosing materials that are sympathetic to the landscape of the local area.
We also invest in the build quality by putting more finer touches in per square metre of each property.
Designed with you in mind We put everything we have into creating the kind of home design that has everything you need.
Whether you prefer detached or semi-detached living, you'll discover that every single feature is carefully planned and beautifully realised.
Our homes don't just look good at a distance, but up close too, with every exterior designed to blend in seamlessly with the local environment and every interior detail designed to exceed expectations.
A team who care As a part of the Eric Wright Group, we take a wider view of the world around us, looking beyond the homes we build to support good causes in our local communities.
Any additional funds we build up, over and above our operating costs are converted into regular contributions to our chosen charities.
So when you choose an Applethwaite home, you can also relax in the knowledge that you're helping to make life better for someone, somewhere else too. We think it's a good way to build homes.
The Eric Wright Group is owned by the Eric Wright Charitable Trust.
