Occupying a prime 1017sqm green title block with an abundance of space both inside and out, this circa 1960's character home has been lovingly extended with a thoughtfully designed double storey addition that pays homage to its mid-century roots. This exceptional family home epitomises the essence of family living at its finest, blending modern conveniences with much-loved character features in perfect harmony.
Thoughtfully crafted to embody solar passive principles that ensure year-round comfort and energy efficiency. This North facing home maximises natural sunlight during winter, while 600mm eaves and cross-ventilation keep the interior cool through the height of summer. Above, a suspended concrete slab provides exceptional thermal mass, absorbing the days warmth and releasing it slowly, maintaining a serene and stable indoor temperature. Generous windows are strategically placed to capture breezes and promote natural airflow-minimising the need for artificial heating and cooling. Every element has been curated not only to enhance everyday living, but to tread more lightly on the Earth, offering lower energy costs and a sustainable embrace for the future.
