Description

A social housing development of 8 zero operational carbon homes in flood zone 3A.

ZED PODS, in collaboration with Mid Devon District Council & Star Construction, has developed and is implementing an innovative modular housing project. This initiative comprises eight dwellings, meeting the NDSS space standard requirements, situated above an underutilised garage site owned by the council in Tiverton.

This development is pioneering as it is the first modular housing scheme of its kind located in a Flood Zone. Positioned at the end of Shapland Place, the site required careful planning and engineering to address flood risks. The dwellings are constructed on a steel podium, incorporating essential safety measures and flood mitigation strategies to ensure the highest quality and energy efficiency standards.
