Morris Homes feature Freefoam grey fascia

Introduction

Situated on the edge of Leicester surrounded by beautiful open fields and woodland, the Glebelands Park development features a collection of detached and semi-detached 3, 4 and 5 bedroom properties designed to offer stylish homes that blend in to the surrounding countryside.

Morris Homes selected Dark Grey fascia to perfectly complement the grey window frames, juliette balconies and garage doors to achieve a coordinated, contemporary look. Phil Shaw, Procurement Manager explained “The site at Glebelands Park is one of our more ‘contemporary’ sites. We’re often driven by planning guidelines and pride ourselves on being able to offer Local Authorities a ‘non-standard’ look that will enhance the local area. One of the ways we achieve this is by using colour instead of white. It immediately raises the profile of a house design and gives instant kerb appeal.”

Project Support

Freefoam have a dedicated team to support housebuilders from concept to completion. Richard Watson, Site Manager,Morris Homes explained how it works in practice “With 100 homes planned for the development we needed to be confident that the roofline materials would be consistent and available when needed. We don’t have the facilities to store large quantities on site so I order on a plot specific basis at the same time as the roof trusses. Our local Freefoam Supplier ensures that all grey fascia is available and arranges delivery to site. The quality of the product is excellent and the whole process is working really well for us”
