No expense has been spared in the realisation of this superb residence, designed to bridge the gap between present and future. An emphasis on sustainability and flow will keep running costs low and functionality high for many years to come.

Two separate banks of solar panels power hot water and feed into the home’s energy use. In-slab hydronic heating and ducted heat pump keeps the interiors warm. Glazing and solar tubes make the most of natural light. Level entries ease the transition between inside and out – a nod to future mobility needs.

 Luxury flows through this exquisite property, from its partially glazed portico entrance to sun-soaked alfresco, large L-shaped swimming pool and spa. The 453sqm design delivers four bedrooms, three bathrooms, two separate water closets, a mudroom/laundry and three generous living spaces. The separate pool house will appeal to guests.

Home automation provides peace of mind at the touch of a button. The system consolidates control of gates, doors, TV, fireplace, surround-sound and CCTV.
