Mornington Peninsula builder, Craig Hellyer of Parkway Homes Pty Ltd, has been committed to designing and building energy efficient homes since the late 1990’s.
Then, as Victorian Building manager with the Henley Properties Group, Craig was involved in transforming the Henley range into Five Star Energy Efficient homes. “The lessons I learnt at the time were invaluable”, he said. “They gave me a strong insight into the benefits of environmentally friendly house design”. After more than nine years in the corporate world, Craig left Henley to establish Parkway with his wife, Kaye. “We wanted to run a small family business which we could operate from home”, he said. “One that allowed us to concentrate on building a small number of environmentally sensitive houses each year and enabled us to keep close control of the job and in contact with our clients.
