With clever eco design, the smart choice in homes is here. Unique, aesthetically pleasing and offering functional living with minimal living costs, the opportunity is here to live in a property as individual as you.
Light and warmth are the priorities in hills homes and to this end a concept was created to embrace both in a sympathetic build. Passive solar heating with northern facing pavilions and dark pigmented concrete floors soak up the sunlight and store heat.
In winter, sunlight only hits the floor due to the northern facing windows. This reduces the need for heating and the owners note that on a sunny winter's day the house easily warms to 20 degrees: Wave to rugged up neighbours and passersby in your Hawaiian shirt sipping an ice tea.
Multiple pavilions and multi aspect windows allow for as much natural light as possible too, minimising the use of lighting during the day. It just makes sense doesn't it?
Louvres and awning windows facilitate the use of natural breezes to cool the house during warmer weather reducing the amount of air conditioning expenses and letting your body relax without that drying, refrigerated feeling.
Walls and ceilings are well insulated and ensure that the inside temperature is as consistent as possible. You might be trading in your ugg boots!
Easy maintenance gardens and floor surfaces make life a breeze in a retreat made for conscious family living with goodwill towards our planet and resources. Sit back, relax and enjoy bird life, nature and a very special location.
