This stunning five-bedroom, three-bathroom home exemplifies modern design while adhering to the stringent Passive House standards for energy efficiency and sustainability. The home’s energy efficiency is a standout feature, with superior insulation, airtight construction, and high-performance windows and doors. These elements work together to ensure outstanding energy savings and year-round comfort, keeping the interior warm in winter and cool in summer. The sleek, contemporary architecture is further enhanced by a thoughtfully designed shading structure, which not only adds to the home’s visual appeal but also provides effective solar control.
An expansive deck extends the living space outdoors, offering ample room for dining, relaxation, and entertaining. This seamless indoor-outdoor connection makes the home perfect for those who enjoy both social gatherings and quiet retreats. Inside, the open-plan layout of the kitchen, dining, and living areas fosters a welcoming and connected environment, ideal for family life and hosting guests.
Generous storage solutions are integrated throughout the home, ensuring plenty of space to keep everything organised and clutter-free. Additionally, the double garage provides secure parking for two vehicles, along with extra storage for tools, sports equipment, and more.
