This stunning property was built to function as a sustainable home. It is absolutely teeming with innovative, ecologically conscientious features. This means that it is not only energy-efficient in its design and function, but also comfort-orientated. It's no surprise that it has been featured in magazine publications.
Ideal for the security conscious, Limestone wall with electric Corten steel gate that grants entry. The driveway offers sheltered parking. See the world, literally, as you step into the entrance passage.
The property is as striking as it is sustainable. Passive design means, northern living areas, bedrooms located on the East side of the home featuring sisal flooring. The layout is versatile, meaning you can opt for a third bedroom, or lounge/sitting room.
The property is set to the Southern boundary and so many features allow for ambient temperatures, including a South-facing reflective Colorbond roof, thermal chimney, and a due North wall and window to maximise the mid-winter sun, calculated eave depth keeps this sun out during summer in the hottest part of the day. The 3 k/w solar system will equate to positive carbon building and low energy bills.
