Architectural Design & Environmentally Aware
Built by local company Lou Projects, and located close to shops and amenities, this brand new three bedroom home has been carefully designed with the environment in mind. The northerly aspect has been perfectly captured and fully utilized, with inclusions such as the double-glazed windows that allow for faster cooling and heating times, providing greater comfort levels within the home.
The polished concrete floor in the living, dining and kitchen areas is both a striking feature and another energy efficient inclusion as it holds heat during the cooler months. The raked ceiling in this vast area enhances the space, as does the high louvre windows and double sliding doors leading out to the deck, which is built from sustainably sourced materials. Once the privacy screens are flush with the fast-growing passionfruit vine, this space will offer the perfect place to enjoy the sunshine.
The modern industrial kitchen has Caesarstone benchtops, dual Baumatic ovens, gas cooktop, glass window splashback, Italian made tapware and pendant lighting over the island bench, and a 24-bottle multi-zoned wine fridge. The bedrooms and hallway have engineered blackbutt timber flooring, all bedrooms have built-in robes and downlights and the spacious master bedroom also has a walk-in robe and ensuite. Both the ensuite and main bathroom are tiled with thermostat controlled underfloor heating, the vanities are custom-made from up-cycled blackbutt timber, and both basins are custom-crafted from polished concrete. The shower screens are frameless, there is floor to ceiling tiling, and the main bathroom has a free-standing bath.
There is also an internal laundry, a large storage cupboard and secure parking for two cars.
The thought and planning that has been put into this home and its efficient use of design is remarkable. From the intelligent 3.3Kw solar system and 5000L water tank, to the insulated walls and the use of ethically sourced materials, it is valuable to understand that if the features of this home are used correctly, the new owners will save a lot of money and resources.
