Story Homes has won the five-star award for the 'Best Developer Website in the UK' for the third consecutive year at the UK Property Awards.

The Cumbrian housing developer was up against strong competition from national companies.

The builder also won the national award for 'Best Residential Interior for a Show Home' for its Fulshaw Manor development in Wilmslow.

Headquartered in Carlisle, the business also scooped two regional five-star accolades for its Fulshaw Manor development.

The scheme was awarded the titles of 'Best Residential Interior for a Show Home' and 'Best Residential Development' in Cheshire.

Story Homes was presented with the four awards at a ceremony on October 25 at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London.

As winners of four five-star awards, the builder will now compete in the European Property Awards, which recognise Europe's finest property companies.

Colin Wood, CEO at Story Homes, said: "We are so proud to be recognised once again at the UK Property Awards, which is a very prestigious accolade within the housebuilding industry.

"To walk away with three five-star awards for our Fulshaw Manor development, plus a further five-star award for our website for the third year running, was a fantastic achievement and demonstrates our commitment to quality and design.

"We are passionate about investing in our website to showcase our unique product offering and provide the most seamless and user-friendly experience for our customers, and we are therefore delighted to be acknowledged by the industry for leading the way in digital innovation."

The UK Property Awards are now in their 31st year and are judged by an independent panel of more than 80 industry experts.
