A MESSAGE FROM THE CURRENT OWNERS:<br/><br/>"Winter was always our least favourite season. But since moving to Maldon, it's become our favourite time of the year. The underfloor heating and rammed earth combine to give the home the most beautiful warmth. The actual house and all its surfaces are warm, not just the air through a split system, where you can still feel uncomfortable and cold. It's hard to describe the difference, you really need to experience it for yourself. <br/>The other thing is how joyful and light the house always feels. It's a combination of everything; the views and orientation, the huge windows and all the natural materials and finishes. There's something so reassuring about being surrounded by rammed earth. It's so quiet but with a beautiful resonance for voice and music. There's nothing better than starting the day with a cuppa in the rocking chair in perfect comfort, watching the kookaburras in the tall gums start theirs."<br/><br/>Comfort, beauty, and sustainability come together in this breathtakingly beautiful rammed earth home which was completed less than twelve months ago. Rammed earth combines form and function helping to regulate the internal temperatures, over all four seasons of the year. The passive solar design of the home features premium hydronic underfloor heating, in an insulated slab. Soaring double glazed windows have been designed to admit the winter sun, whilst large eaves shade summer rays.<br/><br/>There is a beautiful sense of space and superior build quality as you enter this home. The kitchen features caesarstone benchtops, induction cooking, with a dishwasher and pyroclean oven. <br/><br/>The earthy tones of the rammed earth walls are complimented by the polished concrete floors, that are warm underfoot in winter. The large windows that overlook the kitchen garden allow all the natural light of day to flow into the kitchen and living area. <br/><br/>The Stunning bathroom has unique Italian tiles, and a heated towel rail. Here there is a cleverly designed European laundry behind folding doors too. The WC is also seperate from the bathroom, (a feature often missed in regular built homes).<br/><br/>The current owners had the house originally designed with a third bedroom extension, and the plans are available for your viewing.<br/><br/>Adding to the design efficiency, is the 6KW solar system ,as well as a 10,000L rain water tank. The premium Stiebel Eltron heat pump hot water system, is state of the art in efficiency water heating. The home is connected to electricity, town water, sewerage, and NBN. Natural gas is also available.<br/><br/>Seperate from the house is a 49 Sqm shed and carport built on a concrete slab. This would make perfect studio or home workshop. <br/><br/>Natural landscaping has been completed around the home with recent drywall, terraced areas. The owners have also incorporated timber slab steps leading down from the kitchen garden area to the open spaced backyard. There are the beginnings of an orchard and other natural and exotic trees. All of the garden system is on its own irrigation system.<br/><br/>All of this is only a short walk from the centre of the town of Maldon, known for its historic feel ,and charm ,and unique shopping and dining opportunities. All within two hours drive of Melbourne central, along freeways, through some of the most picturesque countryside in Australia. Castlemaine is only 12 minutes away with over 10 trains a day to Melbourne.
