This opportunity is 2nd to none. The owners have dropped the price and need to move on. Situated on amazing waterfront in the very popular Jacobs Well, this eco home has been architecturally designed for sustainable living – it ‘touches the earth lightly’.
It is built on stumps to allow the natural water flow to soak into the earth and also allows flow-through of breezes.
The thought that went to this home is overwhelming. It has been placed on the block to maximise the winter sun and minimise the summer sun.
The front section of the house faces due north and the veranda roof allows full shade in summer but full sun on winter mornings.
Sustainable light-weight building materials have been used, which can be recycled and reused in the future – even the shower walls can be recycled!
The home is well ventilated to catch breezes from every direction, cross ventilation options and louvres have been used to catch the wind.
Double height ceiling has been used for good circulation and the highest standard of insulation used. Walls are also fully insulated.
This home is fully solar powered but still connected to the grid and also has solar hot water. The 3 kilowatt system has already paid for itself in rebates from Energex!
A water saving bypass system has been installed that sends water back into the tanks until the hot water is ready to come through. The toilet in the powder room has a water saving device that saves water from washing your hands to re-use in the next flush.
The garden is all native (except for fruit trees). This attracts beautiful native birds (superb blue wren, Double-barred finch, Mangrove honeyeater, Blue faced honeyeater, pale headed rosella, etc)
