This stunning five bedroom, three bathroom home below Te Mata Peak offers an exceptional blend of space, style, and sustainability. Certified as a Passive House Classic, the home has been designed to provide a temperate environment, while consuming minimal energy and offers maximum comfort and health benefits. Solar power (panels and battery) also reduces living costs and environmental impact alongside significant water harvesting.

Thoughtfully designed with family living in mind, the home features two luxurious bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and walk-in wardrobes—ideal for multi-generational living or guests. An open-plan living area with cathedral ceilings incorporates the kitchen with scullery, dining, and living area creating a seamless space for entertaining that naturally flows outdoors to a deck. A separate lounge and dedicated office provide flexibility for modern lifestyles.

Crafted with care, the attractive weatherboard exterior is complemented by polished concrete floors and warm timber accents throughout, adding a timeless, natural aesthetic.

Extraordinary heat energy savings.

Every one of our projects are energy modelled using the Passive House Planning Package (PHPP). It's through this powerfully clever tool that we can accurately calculate just how much heat energy every eHaus will save when compared to a similarly- sized typical new home, built in the same climate region.

This project is making significant carbon savings for a better environment.

We believe that our homes should have a big impact on the way we live, but little impact on the land. We've calculated the amount of carbon our homes have saved through energy efficiency from move in day 'til now. At their core, eHaus' are built with the elimination of carbon emissions in mind - so we're not only creating healthy, comfy & high performing homes, but spaces that don't cost the earth.
