Services & Miscellaneous
It is our understanding the property is connected with mains electricity only, which is a 3Phase supply. Water is provided by a borehole and rainwater harvesting which is then treated and filtered on site. Central heating is provided by a water source heat pump which heats both the house and the hot water. The property has its own private septic tank. There are two sets of solar panels providing 12kW hours and 200kWh hour battery capacity. The property was occupied by a local philanthropist and renewable energy expert who sought to establish a carbon zero home which is self-sufficient in terms of energy. The owner planted 15,000 trees on the site and installed a 2 million gallon lake filled naturally with fresh Springwater from the stream which runs through the plot. Whilst the property was built in the 1960s, the owner commissioned a double wall Eskin around the perimeter of the property in approximately 2009 to create thermal efficiency within the property.
