Gavin and Nadia’s beautiful barn-style home was built on an existing site in Shirley. This four bedroom home fits the brief for this family of five: a Passive House with no downlights, no carpet and no drapes. Some great design features include the skylights providing light for the children’s bedrooms and loft space, the large verandah shading the living areas from the summer sun and the beautiful bath with the garden outlook in the master bedroom.
So how do you know you are getting what you paid for? We have assembled a dream team- an experienced Passive House designer, engineer and MVHR specialist. We also use local suppliers and sub-trades who have lots of experience with us on Passive House projects. Projects are energy modelled in design stage, and reviewed during construction. Blower door tests are used to measure airtightness. And Certification provides an independent, third-party review, it is the assurance that you get the home you paid for.
Ethos Homes are qualified, experienced and proven, we will deliver on the home you want.
