Hidden at the end of a private pathway is this home built of ancient cream stone that is now a haven of classical, contemporary seclusion between the beach and the lively cafe culture which is the Elwood Village of today. The 5-star energy rated home is so peaceful and allows for winter sun to stream through the many North facing windows.
The Mt. Gambier stone self-insulates and gives a warm cream glow to the Italian tiled open plan living areas. Impressive stone windows and soaring cathedral ceiling give a classical effect and the flexible floor plan includes a delightful enclosed courtyard roofed with clear material designed to allow for summer and winter sun. One gated outdoor car space doubles as a sunny courtyard, while a separate inside garage gives direct access to the home. Street entry is through a distinctive lych-gate.
