About This Property
This high performance eco-house is an inspiring hallmark of future housing: efficient, enjoyable and built to last. Designed by Herriot Melhuish O'Neill Architects and built in 2015, it is cleverly sited on top of a 2.2ha* grass-clad dune in Peka Peka.Three thoughtfully conceived wings are carefully arranged to maximise magnificent views of Kapiti Island and the Tararua Ranges while providing shelter from coastal winds. The composition privileges the kitchen, living, dining and three bedrooms. An easily accessible double garage/workshop is set slightly off to one side.
A sun-drenched courtyard and timber deck that wraps itself around the two cedar-clad wings, offer protection from the prevailing weather. Extra thick, heavily insulated walls; photovoltaic cells; solar hot water panels; and an exposed concrete slab as valuable thermal mass, minimise energy costs and maximise comfort.
