The news comes as the housebuilder confirmed that an impressive 27 of the 128 properties available at its first UK development have already sold off-plan.
Designed around Scandinavian principles, Seven Acres features notable Scandinavian designs throughout each home with high ceilings, large windows and well-planned, built in storage; combining practicality with elegance.
In addition, Homes by Skanska's pioneering development exhibits a clear focus on sustainable living, with each property at the development built with a fabric-first approach, and equipped with the insulation and energy-efficient technologies required to meet level 4 of the Code for Sustainable Homes.
On receiving the award, Magnus Andersson, President of Homes by Skanska commented: "This award is testament to those who worked so hard to launch Skanska's first residential offering in the UK.
"The ethos behind our Seven Acres development is to offer a unique blend of Scandinavian modernity with English tradition and we are proud to receive industry recognition for bringing this innovative concept to the UK market.
"We are truly humbled to have picked up such a prestigious award so soon after launching our first UK development and hope this is a sign of things to come as our residential offering gathers pace."
