This 477sqm three-bedroom home presides over a double corner section bordered by the canal. You can arrive at the front door by car, or to the entertaining area by boat. The Hinuera stone, weatherboard and cedar-clad house wraps an in-ground pool in a central courtyard. Inside you’ll find more solid timber – floors, kitchen features and built-in oak furniture. The TV lounge has an added bonus: a king-size guest bed that disappears into built-in cabinetry. The three bathrooms have handmade concrete basins and brushed-oak cabinets. As if that’s not enough, the house opens to decking on two canal fronts and has a hot tub on the lower level. Sustainability was high on the owners’ list, so you’ll find solar panels, which heat the home as well as the pool in summer. Batteries store the energy so they can live off the grid. There are electric-car chargers, FSC-certified wood and the double glazing is low-e and argon-filled for cool summers and warm winters. This home is more than just a dwelling; it’s a statement of luxury, comfort, and sustainability.
