Property Details
'COOINDA' Ocean Beach Passive House
Nestled deep in the serene back beach locale of Rye, 'COOINDA' is a unique passive solar home that presents a rare opportunity to own a one of a kind property in one of the most sought after and private locations in Victoria.
Offered for sale for the first time since its construction in 1987, the original concept of the home was to design a building that complimented the natural surroundings, leaving most of the undulating block in its original state and giving the existing vegetation the opportunity to grow around it over time– almost as if the home had been there forever.
Artfully crafted and thoughtfully built with a deep respect for the local environment, this unique and bespoke home was constructed almost exclusively using locally sourced materials from the Mornington Peninsula region, including hand-made mud bricks, modelled using clay from Red Hill. This nod to authentic Australian building techniques has resulted in a home that shines with natural beauty and a deep earthy aesthetic.
Situated on a large, lush block, just 1km from Number Sixteen Beach and the local general store, this wonderous property combines privacy with necessary convenience. Inside, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, a single bathroom, and two expansive living areas, providing ample room for family and friends. Through the use of innovative passive design, the natural insulating properties of the mud brick, as well as the home's northern orientation affect the internal climate of the home – achieving thermal comfort with minimal heating or cooling.
A wood-burning fire and split-system air conditioning add to the comfort and convenience for those who enjoy a touch of modern luxury.
Outdoors, the surrounding gardens have been lovingly cultivated over the past 37 years, featuring a diverse array of locally sourced plant species, many of which were propagated by the original owners. This ongoing tribute to the Mornington Peninsula and the sacred land the home occupies is one of passion and a deep love and respect for all that is natural and beautiful.
More than just a place to live, 'COOINDA' presents a rare opportunity to connect with nature and enjoy a peaceful coastal lifestyle.
