There is an immediate sense of warmth and ease at 3 Tarnkun – a home where every element feels considered, from its prized northerly aspect and beautiful natural light to its connection with the outdoors.
Tucked away in a peaceful, no-through street, the setting is wonderfully private, yet the beach is just a short stroll away through Alex Forest. It's a rare balance of seclusion and coastal convenience.
Designed to make the most of its northern orientation, the home is naturally light, breezy and remarkably comfortable year-round. Louvre windows draw fresh air throughout, while carefully positioned screening and automated blinds manage privacy and the changing sun. The result is a home that requires very little heating in winter and only occasional air conditioning through summer.
Living naturally extends outdoors to the sun-drenched rear deck, pool and beautifully remodelled gardens. A wall of adjustable louvres provides privacy and protection from the western sun, creating an inviting outdoor room that can be enjoyed throughout the day and across the seasons.
Adding considerably to the home's appeal is a separate, fully connected studio. Currently enjoyed as guest accommodation, it offers genuine flexibility as a private home office, teenager's retreat, additional accommodation or potential Airbnb/granny flat. Combined with the main residence, the property can adapt from three bedrooms and a study with separate guest quarters, through to four bedrooms with a dedicated office, or potentially five bedrooms and three bathrooms.
Behind the relaxed feel of the home is an exceptional level of technology and energy infrastructure. An 18kW solar system, dual 10kW inverters and substantial 19.3kWh battery are complemented by smart EV charging and whole-home backup in the event of a grid failure. The owners report grid usage of less than 0.5kWh per day, with surplus solar also used to charge their EV and export energy back to the grid.
Whole-house water filtration, large rainwater tanks, FTTP gigabit internet and upgraded data wiring further enhance the home's efficiency and everyday functionality.
Over the past four years, considerable care has also gone into refining the property. The gardens have been completely remodelled and replanted, additional louvres and external screening have improved privacy and climate control, and remote-operated blinds have been thoughtfully incorporated throughout. A remote entry gate, remote garage access, video intercom and integrated wine fridge complete an impressive list of considered inclusions.
