- Installation of a new ‘Nectre Big Bakers Oven’ wood heater and a 6.5kW Daiken heat pump for those mornings where it’s isn't quite cold enough to justify leaving the fire going overnight!
Three double glazed (opening) Velux skylights and large north and west facing windows allow sunlight to fill most of the house from early morning to late afternoon – accenting the warmth of the Tasmanian oak trim and the Tasmanian blackwood kitchen and shelving units. The cathedral ceilings help to create a bright and airy interior.
60,000 litres of rainwater storage and a 10,000 litre fire tank mean that running out of water has never been an issue for the owners (even with lots of baths and showers!), and extensive plantings of and light bush around the edge of the property provide privacy, as well as a lovely ambience for outside living. The property also has a large chook house, and plenty of space for vegetable gardens!
This is a lifestyle property in a popular coastal suburb - with great public recreation facilities, a beach, primary school, tavern, butcher, doctor's surgery, café and supermarket, all within easy walking distance.
