Layered in stillness and sustainability, this striking eco-conscious three-bedroom home rises from its hillside position - highly credentialed in comfort, privacy and solar efficiency.
Intelligently formed from robust, reliable rammed earth, the design's thermal performance is its unsung hero its steady internal thermostat as much a gift as the one-acre block's gum-studded beauty.
There's nothing like a family escape plan where luxury and nature take the lead. With dual driveways, a sweeping hardwood deck and full-length balcony, its treetop stance leaves you thinking it was carved from the earth itself.
Polished concrete floors, full-height glazing and walls of floor-skimming louvres anchor a home that breathes, adapts and limits reliance on artificial heating and cooling - split-system reverse-cycle air conditioning and a central slow combustion fireplace, with upstairs heat transfer, are there when required.
The earth-meets-glass contrast grounds the entire living level, where kitchen, dining, a guest/third bedroom and a two-way luxe bathroom complete the cohesive, high-end aesthetic.
Hosting premium appliances, including a Smeg 6-burner gas cooktop, Smeg oven and a Bosch dishwasher, the kitchen delivers a dual-toned and tactile palette within its inclusive design.
Virtually every zone connects with the outdoors via a terrace, balcony, or a glazed French door inviting a sense of wellbeing from any of the three sensibly dispersed bedrooms.
Upstairs lands with the barefoot comfort of a carpeted family room, a breathtaking bridge between the final two bedrooms the largest drifting into a walk-in dressing robe with priority access to the second two-way ensuite bathroom.
With an almost infinite supply of kindling, stoke the firepit and savour winter in the best way outdoors. The tamed and retained allotment provides a level, fenced play area for kids, a kitchen garden, and paved parking for at least four behind remote driveway gates.
When you've got the village, pub and cafe life of Stirling, Crafers and Aldgate in your leafy midst, Woorabinda Reserve's weave of walking trails nearby, and the freeway exit before you know it you know you've landed somewhere special.
Earth-built, sun-driven, sophisticated. Live with the softest touch and views to soothe.
