21 Bryant Court, Ballan VIC 3342

Designed as a family dwelling enabling a country lifestyle & escape, while having a Melbourne based career, the home was a reinterpretation of the simple & robust country farm buildings of the area. Designed with an intentional simplicity of form, minimalist aesthetic & attention to detail, allowing the occupants to feel connected with the surrounding landscape through the architecture.
• Using Passive solar design principles the North facing living spaces capture the Winter sun, which warms the polished concrete slab and heats the home naturally, while non- living spaces face south with minimal glazed areas to buffer & reduce heat loss on the cooler side of the home.
• With 3 generous sized bedrooms-all with ceiling fans for added comfort & style.
• Set in a quiet court location in a friendly community, within a few minutes of the Ballan Township & easy access to the Freeway both for an easy commute to Melbourne or Ballarat.
• Recent soil tests & extension plans are available to Purchasers.
• Deep reveals allow winter sun in, while minimising the impact of summer sun to reduce cooling loads & double glazed, argon filled, timber windows reduce heat loss in winter & heat gain in summer.
• This coupled with the deep walls and insulation, provides a 7 star rating, & helps maintain a more comfortable living environment inside with reduced extremities of temperature, requiring supplementary cooling & heating
• The home has a 44000lt rainwater tank (with mains water back-up) feeding the house & selected garden taps, reducing water usage significantly
• The Class 1 Sugar Gum cladding was sourced from Farm wind breaks in the region that were being felled, to reduce timber use from rainforests & native forests. A combination of Aircell, glass wool & polyester Insulation was selected to maximise the benefits based on the area used. All products contained recycled materials to minimise raw material use
• House design completed with some plumbing points in place for future extension to make a 4 bed 2 bath home as family needs change..
• Externally, the infrastructure for horses or other farm animals is impressive with fantastic fencing, shelters & a huge 14m x 8m shed with same pitched roof to tie in with the dwelling.
• Just a short drive to the Western Freeway & 5 mins to the Ballan Train Station, supermarket, primary school, shops & cafes – this location is highly desired.
