Featured Home | The Chicken Haus
Affectionally nicknamed “The Chicken Haus,” This beautiful 1,876-square-foot residence is a net-zero home and a perfect sanctuary for family living. At Timber Haus, we believe every home should reflect the harmony of nature and innovation. Our latest project, in Strathearn, is a stunning example of how thoughtful design can enhance lives while prioritizing sustainability.
The home exudes warmth and comfort from the moment you step inside, thanks to its many energy-efficient features. Built with double stud walls, this house provides superior insulation and airtightness, ensuring that it remains cozy in winter and cool in summer. The absence of a gas line and the use of an air source heat pump exemplify our commitment to sustainability while minimizing the environmental footprint of a house designed for the future.
Solar panels elegantly adorn the roof of the garden suite, harnessing the sun’s energy to power the home, making it self-sufficient. The strategically optimized windows are designed to capture natural sunlight, allowing abundant natural light to flow through the space while maximizing free energy.
This Timber Haus is a perfect blend of beauty and functionality. It features natural fibre carpets that add a touch of elegance while promoting healthier indoor air quality. Real wood doors throughout the home provide a tactile connection to nature, enhancing the overall aesthetic and inviting warmth.
With three spacious bedrooms, this home is designed for families seeking comfort and style. Each room is thoughtfully designed to foster connection and tranquility, making it ideal for relaxation and family gatherings.
One of the standout features of this home is the charming garden suite. This versatile space can serve multiple purposes—whether as a guest suite, home office, or creative studio. The garden suite embodies the essence of biophilic design. Surrounded by lush landscaping, it encourages residents to connect with nature while providing a peaceful retreat just steps from the main home.
At Timber Haus, we are passionate about creating homes that meet our client’s needs and contribute positively to the environment. This net-zero home in Strathearn is a shining example of how design can enhance lives while being kind to the planet.
If the idea of naturally inspired living inspires you and you are considering a custom-built home, we invite you to explore how Timber Haus can bring your vision to life. Together, we can create a sustainable future where beauty and efficiency coexist seamlessly.
