8 St Ives Court, Mount Lofty QLD 4350

This contemporary two-level home has been finished with colours and textures that make it appear like its part of the landscape. Beautifully crafted to make the most of the amazing escarpment views and northern light, it is the creation of one of Toowoomba's upcoming, award winning builders, Janke Constructions and was awarded the Excellence in Sustainable Living Award by Downs & Western Region Master Builders in 2016.

Designed to a high standard of sustainability through the inclusion of 5kW solar electricity system to reduce the reliance on the grid, a 52,000lt underground rainwater tank, Vergola Roofing System which controls the sunlight into the lower levels year round as well as maximising ventilation, construction methods for significant thermal advantage and energy efficient glazing to all the windows was what impressed the judges.

But it will be the range views and the relaxed lifestyle that the home brings that buyers will love. The internal layout offers intimate and enclosed spaces, which contrast with the generous open-plan living space on the ground floor with its seamless connection to the outdoor spaces and pool. Hardwearing porcelain tiles have been installed on the lower level, while Blackbutt timber floors are a feature of the master bedroom and second level.
There is so much to appreciate in this home from the buildings architectural lines and the homes many thoughtful inclusions, the large 1,300m2 landscaped yard and those amazing views, but together they make a home that exudes comfort and style, and will be a gorgeous backdrop for your busy life.
