Tucked away at the end of a whisper quiet cul-de-sac in an elevated, east-facing position, is this architect-designed home on a leafy, landscaped 1750m2 block, designed and constructed to maximise energy efficiency and minimise carbon footprint…a home that’s very much in harmony with its environment, whilst still offering excellent functionality and family-friendly living.

A highset design with a double lock up garage and storage under; the upper level is a pavilion style design comprising five bedrooms, two bathrooms, office, and family room in one wing flowing to a private covered deck/breezeway with lush garden outlook connecting to second wing with living, dining, and kitchen.

Original owner was committed to embodying passive heating and cooling principles into the build and used a clever mix of conventional materials to enhance sustainability – engaging the services of WD Architects who specialise in sustainable design to ensure the layout maximises cross ventilation and natural light.

Concrete block walls, plywood clad Hebel flooring, combination of Zincalume steel and Styrofoam in ceilings (higher degree of insulation), louvres, energy-efficient lighting, gas cooktop, and 4 x tanks are some of the features that work in synchronicity to promote and support the eco-friendly, energy-efficient ethos…that was the conceptual driver in the home’s design and build.

Framed by well-established native and tropical gardens, fenced on three sides, also with a fenced off dog area and a chicken coop for free-range eggs; irrigated from tank water, the gardens very much complement the home’s design, and boost privacy, outlook, and ambience.

Located within a five minute drive to hospitals, rail, and town amenities, and just 25 minutes to coast beaches – access to services is quick and easy; and returning back home to your blissful haven, your own slice of paradise, will always be a pleasure.

This is a quality home that is as practical as it is inspired and unique; very much on-trend with the psyche of many of today’s more environmentally-conscious buyers, in a truly delightful setting. This one will attract lots of attention, act today.
