More Than Just a House: What makes Genesis Homes different?

Posted on: April 10, 2025

At Genesis Homes, we believe a home is more than just bricks and mortar. It should be a place that inspires, comforts, and welcomes you from the moment you step through the door.

More than that, the community your home is built in should offer a feeling of security, look beautiful and and keep you connected — with easy access to local amenities and transport links. It should be a place you’re genuinely proud to call home.

Find out how every Genesis home is carefully designed to offer quality and space for modern living, whilst creating a thriving community in a desirable location…

Designed for living, built to last

High standard new build kitchen

From the inside out, our homes are built with care and precision. We use high-quality materials, expert craftsmanship, and smart design choices to ensure every home we build is a place of comfort, security, and longevity. Whether it’s the natural flow of the layout or the subtle design touches that make day-to-day living easier and more enjoyable, our homes are created with the homeowner in mind.

Open plan layouts for modern life

We know that life today is all about connection — and that includes the way we live at home. That’s why open plan layouts are a key feature across our developments, particularly in the kitchen/dining spaces. They’re perfect for family time, entertaining, or just enjoying space to breathe. With bright, airy rooms and flexible living areas, a Genesis home gives you room to live your life your way.

Smarter and sustainable

Our homes are designed to be energy efficient — helping you reduce your carbon footprint and your energy bills. From quality, carefully selected materials to high-performance glazing and efficient heating systems, every detail is chosen to lower running costs without compromising on comfort. It’s better for the environment, and better for your wallet.

Building thriving communities

Genesis Homes has been proudly building communities across Cumbria for over eight years, creating places that people are proud to call home. We don’t just build houses — we build the foundations of great communities. We care about where our homes are located, the schools nearby, the green spaces, the amenities, and the opportunities for neighbours to connect.

We’re focused on a community-building approach to our developments and are looking to introduce customer engagement events from construction of the development through to hand over of public open spaces. We want to amplify the fact all our customers are on the new build journey together and really nurture a new community that can be sustained.
