Crest Nicholson is a highly respected developer of sustainable communities.
Our mission is to lead the market in the design and delivery of thriving places in which people want to live and work.
Our aim is to improve the quality of life for individuals and communities, both now and in the future, by providing better homes, work places, retail and leisure spaces and by addressing the needs of the people who will live in and around our developments with supporting facilities and services.
Crest Nicholson’s contribution to the built environment has been recognised with a string of awards, reaching a pinnacle in 2007 with The Queens Award for Enterprise in Sustainable Development. This award is testament to our continued emphasis on producing high quality developments that champion the very best principles in sustainability and design. It marks a tangible milestone in our mission to deliver communities where people genuinely want to live, work and play - places with a real heart and soul.
A real community with its own identity will be achieved in the new neighbourhood Kilnwood Vale through innovative development design and by providing supporting services and infrastructure. We intend to consult widely throughout our design development process to ensure that we understand the needs and issues which affect local people and stakeholders.
All the buildings we deliver will incorporate the latest technologies to reduce carbon output. Streets, buildings and open spaces will be arranged to encourage interaction between residents. This approach will help to develop an old fashioned sense of community and place, one which can integrate with existing communities such as Bewbush and Ifield West.
We intend to deliver sustainable infrastructure which will include shops, education, community facilities, affordable housing, informal green spaces, areas for play and sport, areas for small-scale employment, and sustainable transport initiatives. It is only by providing for all the needs of a community that it will evolve and thrive over time – a place where people will want to live.
