Abode

This remarkable residence unites history with a technological future. Built in 1892 by Charles Chandler for merchant James Paterson and reimagined by architect Mark Thwaites, the original double-fronted Victorian house has been transformed into a landmark in sustainable design.

The extension spans three levels and works within passive house principles. This includes soaring double-glazed windows and skylights for warming sunlight and fresh air. Central to the light-filled space is the beautiful kitchen in Peraway stone and Grigio Carnico marble, with a full suite of V-Zug and Miele appliances.

Three ground-floor bedrooms all have their own special character: marble fireplaces, luxurious ensuites, walk-in robes, or abundant natural light. The fourth upstairs bedroom, with its own ensuite and walk-in-robe, is complemented by a mezzanine study and storage.

On the lower ground floor, a dramatic wine cellar is a design feature of its own, set beside an exposed brick wall and open fireplace. This grand, warm space backs onto a games room—perfect for entertaining or as a social family hub.

With multiple beautiful outdoor zones, including a leafy courtyard, private balcony, and an alfresco kitchen finished in Italian stone with a built-in Beefeater BBQ, this incredible space is an opportunity to enjoy a bygone era of elegance, fully serviced by leading modern design.

Additional details:
* Advanced passive house principles: Jag double-glazed thermally broken windows, Masterwall cladding, wall/underfloor/thermal wrap insulation, gap-sealed frames
* Bathrooms in Grigio Carnico, black marble with English Tapware; Victoria & Albert bath
* 7.4kW solar with LG NeON panels, 3-phase power, battery ready
* 4,000L water tanks with automated irrigation; Reclaim hot water/heat pump
* Climate control via Fujitsu split systems, skylights, and shading
* Hand-painted stained glass by Mark Howard, glass artist
