Step inside the before and after reveal of a beautifully transformed 1930s semi-detached home in Cambridge, now a showcase of deep retrofit innovation. This property features solar PV, air source heat pump, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR), underfloor heating, triple-glazed windows, rainwater harvesting, and a SIP garden building – all wrapped in high-performance insulation and airtightness measures.
For 175 years, The Cambridge has been tackling housing challenges...and now we're taking on one of the biggest yet.
Upgrading homes across the UK is key to cutting carbon emissions and reaching net zero by 2050. That’s where home retrofit comes in: improving energy efficiency, reducing reliance on fossil fuels, and making homes warmer, more comfortable, and more affordable to run.
With 29 million homes in the UK needing upgrades, we’re showing what’s possible — starting with a typical 1930s semi-detached house.
Small steps, smart choices, big impact. Let’s make greener living achievable for everyone.
