Eco Homes in Hastings and Beverley Hills

Actor Pierce Brosnan is a keen environmentalist and a very rich actor. With money being no option  he has pushed every green button imaginable in creating an eco home.
His newly-built mansion on the Malibu beachfront has solar panels to heat the eco house, the outdoor pool and guest cabana and still sell electricity back to the grid. All Pierce’s water will be recycled on site in a purpose-built plant, and there is also a waste disposal system, custom-built £250,000 energy-saving lighting and a solar-powered revolving compost heap.

The windows of the eco home are non-glare, insulated glass and there is a centrally controlled climate and lighting system that will automatically turn off the lights if a room is left vacant for more than five minutes.The climate control will automatically adjust various rooms in the eco home to maximise energy savings. and there is naturally recycled wood for the kitchen benches and the low-flow toilets.
‘Pierce and his wife Keely Smith  aimed to create the ultimate eco home and have spent £6.5 million in the process.  But need they have spent so much? The fact is  if money is no object there’s no limit to what you can do but in reality a lot of this stuff is superfluous and tokenism.  In contrast our company Phoenix Trinity Design & Build have built 10 large eco homes on the south coast of England in a development called Shoreline. Our eco homes average 2000 sq ft in size with fantastic seaviews and are well insulated.  They are heated using a combination air transfer and solar heating system in combination for the heat and hot water.  This makes them very energy-efficient.  Admittedly we can’t sell electricity back to the grid but have instead invested money in a local offsetting programme that uses biochar technology which completely negates our embedded CO2 emissions from construction.  In fact we think we think our ten eco homes give Pierce’s Eco palace a run for its money  and they start at just £375.000. We have weekly show home open days every Saturday from 12-2pm
