eHaus Taranaki clients share why they designed and built two eHaus homes as rental properties.
Strandon Duo
About
eHaus Pacific
These two beautiful homes are meticulously designed to the eHaus Pacific standard and were specifically built as rental properties. With a strong focus on providing tenants with warm, dry homes while minimising the impact on the planet, they offer a unique and energy-efficient living option.
Featuring two bedrooms and a bathroom on the upper level, and an open plan kitchen, dining, and living area on the lower level, each home maximises space and functionality. Despite their compact size of 64sqm, these properties provide a comfortable and practical living experience for tenants.
The popularity of these homes speaks for itself, with both being rented before their completion. Their warm, energy-efficient, and well-designed attributes have resonated with people who appreciate the value of comfortable and environmentally conscious living spaces.

About the
Professional
At eHaus, we live like efficiency is our point, and intelligent construction our norm. We live like our environment is a privilege and protecting it our responsibility. We live like New Zealanders are our passion, and ingenuity is our response.
eHaus was established in 2010 by Jon Iliffe and Baden & Glenda Brown with the dream of creating a New Zealand owned and operated specialist design and construction company using PassivHaus build and design principles.
Jon, a Mechanical Production Engineer from Rolls Royce Motors, arrived in New Zealand and looking to build a family home went seeking out alternative options and found the PassivHaus way.
Baden, a master builder of 20 years, disillusioned with the poor performance of the high-end homes he was building for clients, also was seeking other options, and discovered PassivHaus. Together, with Jon and Glenda - Financial director, eHaus was formed.
Our eHaus team is made up of some of the country's best Passive House builders, architects and designers who are redefining the way kiwis live, one home at a time. Our team of professionals work together to see your dreams come to reality.
Today eHaus is recognised as award winning and New Zealand leaders in PassivHaus design and construction. Find out more about eHaus and our teams here: https://ehaus.co.nz/
