Built with passive-solar principle in mind, 'The Trombe House' design resonates even more acutely today than it did when it won the H.I.A. house of the year award in the 1980's. Blessed with a broad northern aspect, the living areas of the house take full advantage of this focus and the beautiful gardens which have developed a very special sense of space and arrival to this mid-century modern classic.
Elongated lines, loads of windows, high ceilings and a generous volume of space in each room creates a home of simple, elegant beauty and respite. An additional timber 2 room cottage sits discreetly in the gardens -the perfect guest quarters, home office or studio.
Located in a highly desirable part of Mittagong within easy walking distance to Frensham, Sturt and the village shops and station, this brick beauty will stimulate those looking for a fabulous blank slate to enhance. With R2 low density residential zoning and a minimum lot size of 700 sqm, there is also vast potential to develop the site further (STCA).
