Welcome to 3 Karwin Avenue, the superb culmination of a passionate vision to create a truly sustainable home, where contemporary architecture and effortless elegance harmoniously combine with a total commitment to low impact living. From the moment you arrive you will experience this vision unfolding before you, as you wind your way through the rainforest surrounds following the extended drive catching a glimpse of the expressive, folded pitched roof before the full residence comes into view. In it’s entirety this truly unique building is breathtaking.

Staying true to their environmental principles, the sellers have devoted considerable attention to the thermal design of the home, focusing on passive thermal principles for heating and cooling along with ensuring that all components have the lowest environmental impact possible in terms of both their embodied energy and functional performance. In terms of floorplan, the house is arranged around a central 2m wide hallway, with east facing bedrooms and study, north facing living, dining and kitchen and west facing laundry, bathrooms and guest bedroom – all arranged around a small courtyard. The living areas are extensively glazed with high-performance glazing and roof overhangs (to facilitate passive winter heating). Clean lines, ceiling high windows and neutral colours allow the spacious interiors to seamlessly accentuate the surrounding habitat.

- Single level, environmentally sustainable masterpiece set on 1.4ha of stunning Coastal bushland
