Set within Castlemaine’s groundbreaking Paddock eco-village, this beautiful three-bedroom home sets a new benchmark for sustainable living. Designed to an impressive 8.2-star energy rating, it offers exceptional year-round comfort, with thoughtful design helping to keep interiors cooler through summer and warm and inviting throughout winter.
Unlike many other townhouses, this one has extraordinary access to verdant spaces: a kitchen garden, wildlife corridors, two wetlands lush with aquatic plants, intimate walking paths with blossoming fruit trees, climbing vines, and olive trees, a village green for picnics, multiple outdoor dining areas in the shade of eucalypts or grapevines. Thoughtfully designed to foster a sense of community and closer connection to nature.
A rare and inspiring feature of this thoughtfully designed community is its generous shared workshop, offering space for resident artists, woodworkers and musicians to bring creative ideas to life, alongside practical space for DIY projects and everyday repairs.
There’s accommodation too! For friends and family, in the sweet community-owned Airbnb, a beautifully furnished two-bedroom sanctuary.
