UNIQUE & ONE OF A KIND!
Discover the charm and ingenuity of this unique container home, a striking blend of sustainability and modern comfort. Built in 2020, this eye-catching residence is crafted from four shipping containers, meticulously stacked and cantilevered, and encased in beautiful spotted gum hardwood. The innovative design and authentic craftsmanship are evident in every detail, using natural, recycled, and repurposed materials to add a distinctive character throughout the home.
Bathed in natural light, the thoughtfully designed layout spans two levels. The first floor houses three bedrooms, including the master with an ensuite and private north-facing balcony. Downstairs, the open-plan living area, kitchen, dining room, and bathroom showcase the home's attention to detail. Bamboo flooring flows throughout the living area, complemented by ceiling fans and doors that open to the north, inviting the refreshing coastal breeze inside.
Everywhere you look, the bespoke interiors reveal art-like style with rustic, retro, and natural features. The master bedroom offers a serene retreat with its own balcony and retractable awning, ideal for relaxation and unwinding. Outside, the property continues to impress with multiple decks on both levels, allowing you to follow the sun throughout the day. An outdoor bath and shower, complete with hot water, are conveniently located just off the north-facing deck, while a large fire pit provides a perfect spot for evening gatherings adjacent to main entertainment deck.
Nestled on a generous 1,147m2 block, this charming property includes a chook shed, woodshed, and greenhouse, enhancing its self-sufficiency. A large shed with a single garage and workshop also houses a granny flat, which has been used as an income source through Airbnb. The granny flat features a loft bed, kitchenette, and bathroom, along with its own outdoor hot water shower and fire pit area.
Environmentally conscious features include two 10,000-litre galvanized water tanks and 6.6kw solar panels. For year round comfort, a timber combustion fireplace and air conditioner ensure the home remains temperate. The interior is further enriched by a stairway crafted from a single Norfolk Island Pine tree and a balustrade sourced from a single locally salvaged tree. The kitchen stands as a testament to innovative reuse, with recycled hardwood forming the cabinetry and concrete benchtops, while marine plywood covers the walls.
Located within walking distance to both Cormorant and Bawley Beaches, and bordered by a reserve and wetlands that provide convenient shortcuts to the shore, this property offers the best of coastal living. Embrace a sustainable lifestyle without compromising on comfort in this one-of-a-kind home, sure to impress with its special blend of rustic charm and modern innovation.
