28 Candover Street, Geelong West VIC 3218

Sustainability and style go hand in hand in this state-of-the-art Geelong West home that cleverly combines the very best in green, clean living with the latest luxury design features.
“Brookville”, circa 1884, has been transformed from its heritage-listed origins into an award-winning, eco-smart entertainer.
In designing the 6.2-star energy-rated home, Geelong architect Pati Seiler has retained the Victorian façade but produced a contemporary property committed to a reduced carbon footprint and the lowest possible running costs.
Energy-efficient features include:
• Web-based MyAir zoned and ducted heating and cooling that can be operated remotely.
• Double-glazed windows.
• High-performance insulation in the walls, ceiling and under timber floors.
• A heat pump Sanden Eco hot water system that uses warm air from the atmosphere to heat water.
• A north-facing living area to maximise winter sun and polished concrete floors to store warmth.
• A 2000-litre water tank with gravity-fed tap for the garden.
• Velux skylights fitted with rain sensors that open to allow airflow.
• Pre-wiring for solar panels and battery storage.
No expense has been spared in designing, rebuilding and fitting out this home for modern living.
