Property Description

A unique opportunity to own the the first solar home in Sydney proper. The house is “passive solar”, oriented so that the long bank of windows faces exactly to solar south, it has high-efficiency, Polytech windows throughout, as well as Solera translucent by Advanced Glazings of Sydney. These features, combined with high-efficiency spray-foam insulation, means that the house heats itself with sunlight in shoulder seasons and on many sunny winter days. The house also has a 3.2 Kw roof-mounted solar electric system. At peak season this can produce 30 KW-hrs of energy per day, enough to run the house and more. The system is “net-metered”, where overproduction in peak season is stored with NS Power. Through much of the year all the hot water is produced by the sun. The heating system is a Nordic ground-source water-to-air whole-home heat pump, with a cozy woodstove in the dining/living area. Some other notable features include over one half an acre lot, metal roof with super strong gutter system, whirlpool tub in ensuite, large pantry off the kitchen, large walk-in closet with built in shelves. Centrally located minutes to CB Regional Hospital, downtown Sydney, running track and one kilometer to Kiwanis pool.
