Designed and built in 2012, this Certified Passive House was the very first eHaus in Taranaki.
The home was designed to deliver exceptional comfort and performance. Energy modelling predicted a 94% reduction in heating demand. Upon completion, the home achieved an airtightness result of 0.38 ACHₙ₅₀ which is well below the Passive House certification threshold of 0.6. A re-test in 2025 confirmed the home continues to perform at an impressive 0.51 ACHₙ₅₀, proving that quality design and construction stand the test of time.
Set in the foothills of Mount Taranaki, the home enjoys sweeping views of both the mountain and coastline. The layout includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and laundry positioned at one end of the house. Open-plan kitchen, dining and living spaces form the heart of the home at the other end, and both areas are connected via a foyer and cosy nook which creates a practical and comfortable home.
