MITTAGONG HOUSE

Located in the southern highlands town of Mittagong, this home was designed for a couple approaching retirement and needed to meet a very strict budget. The environmentally considered response for the cold climate region, ensures the home will have very low running costs and utility bills into the future. Some of the environmental features include reverse masonry construction, northern orientation, concrete floors, double glazing, infloor hydronic heating and European style radiators, solar powered hot water, extensive sun shading and passive cooling. The clients meticulous involvement throughout, including construction, ensured the final project cost was $1200/m2, well below a standard ‘project home’. The Mittagong house has recently been featured in a local southern highlands magazine ‘Highlife’. A link to the article can be found here:/media.html
