Stunning orange brick Passivhaus elevates sustainable living standards with its unique design
A Sustainable Masterpiece in Notting Hill: The Passivhaus on Ambleside Avenue
Nestled in the heart of Notting Hill, a remarkable Passivhaus property has recently come to market. Priced at £1.1 million, this energy-efficient home is a testament to modern, eco-friendly living.
The house, described by listing agents The Modern House as "An immaculately finished Passivhaus; sustainable, comfortable and brilliantly liveable," boasts a fully electric system, powered by renewable energy sources. Solar panels and a green roof, although not pictured, contribute to the home's sustainable energy production.
The exterior, built with Berkshire orange stock bricks, gives the house a traditional charm, while the interior is a blend of contemporary design and eco-friendliness. The home's air-tight construction and absence of thermal bridges ensure a climate-controlled environment, maintained by a mechanical ventilation heat recovery (MVHR) unit. This unit filters air through HEPA filters, providing fresh, low-humidity air throughout the house.
Upon entering the ground floor, you'll find internal bike storage and utility rooms, as well as living areas with grey sustainable rubber flooring and large windows, including a glass corner window. The living/dining area is connected to a raised kitchen with "Ultramarine Blue" walls and stainless steel countertops. The kitchen also includes a pantry, WC, and a versatile space for work or play.
The first floor houses a main bedroom with built-in wardrobes, an en suite with blue rubber flooring, a walk-in shower, and a wide bath. The floor also features a large family bathroom and a laundry chute.
The landing on the second floor, currently used as an office, offers potential for a reading nook or play area, with pastel tones highlighting the pitched roof. This floor also includes two equally sized bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and soft carpeted floors.
Automated shutters and skylights adjust themselves to maintain the home's temperature, ensuring comfort all year round. The home's unique features are tied together by a bespoke birch ply staircase with open treads and orange accents, featuring automatic lighting under the handrail.
Notting Hill Genesis, the owner or builder of the property, has crafted a home that seamlessly blends sustainability, comfort, and style. If you're looking for a home that not only meets your needs but also contributes positively to the environment, this Passivhaus on Ambleside Avenue is a must-see.
