Working in clean energy or nuclear decommissioning comes with real purpose, but what if it also came with a better lifestyle?

For professionals based at or relocating to Sellafield Ltd or other companies along Britain’s Energy Coast, finding the right home can make a huge difference to your work-life balance. 

Whether you’re part of the decommissioning supply chain, a new hire in engineering, or returning to Cumbria for a quality of life that’s hard to beat, High Grange Developments offers the ideal base to live, work and thrive.

Luxury New Build Homes in West Cumbria

Let’s start with the obvious: location. High Grange’s Keekle Meadows development is just 12 miles from the Sellafield site, offering an easy commute without sacrificing peace and quiet.

For busy professionals juggling shift work, early starts or tight schedules, cutting down travel time means more time to decompress, whether that’s walking the dog, getting the kids to school, or heading to the gym after work.

But it’s not just about proximity. Living near Sellafield opens the door to a better balance between your career and your lifestyle.

The Best of Both Worlds - Town, Coast and Countryside

Keekle Meadows is set in a peaceful spot on the edge of Cleator Moor, a community with all the essentials and a welcoming local feel. Just a short drive away, you’ll find:

• Supermarkets, cafés, takeaways and local shops
• Primary and secondary schools
• Leisure centres, gyms and medical facilities
• Great road links to Whitehaven, Egremont and Workington

And of course, you’ve got some of Cumbria’s best coastline and countryside right on your doorstep. From sunsets over St Bees Head to hikes around Ennerdale Water, this is everyday life with access to some of the UK’s most beautiful landscapes.

Modern Homes for Busy Lives

High Grange homes are designed with modern professionals in mind. That means:

• Energy-efficient builds for lower bills and reduced environmental impact

We know your time is precious. That’s why we focus on practical, high-quality homes, from secure parking and outdoor lighting to efficient heating systems that keep your home comfortable all year round.

Perfect for Singles, Couples and Young Families

Whether you’re starting out in your career, moving up the ladder, or returning to Cumbria to raise a family, Keekle Meadows offers the flexibility you need.

Our homes are available in a range of sizes and layouts, with options to personalise your interiors. This flexible service is available until the interior fixing phase, ensuring that every detail conforms to your vision.
