MARRI – Price on enquiry

Family Lot

DESIGNED by design BUTTON; built by BIG BEN BUILDERS

The great entertainer, this four bedroom two bathroom family home has plenty of living space with a spacious kitchen, raked ceilings in the open plan dining and family rooms, which spill out onto a huge alfresco space with an outdoor kitchen. So get your cooking on and invite the whole family over for a catch-up!

This spacious barn-style home has well placed windows to facilitate airflow and the vertical and horizontal thermal mass will assist in minimising temperature fluctuations internally throughout the year. The ensuite and bathrooms are located on the north side with a full height window to the shower, which makes the areas comfortable and mould-free naturally all year round. Universal accessibility has been considered in detail making this home perfect for independent living.

At 209.6sqm in internal living area (300sqm total), Marri has been specifically designed to fit a Family lot. There’s also plenty of storage throughout in the form of walk-in and built-in robes, an internal storeroom and generous walk-in pantry. A second multi-use games room means the kids can have their own space too.

House & Land Package Pricing

Ecovillage House & Land Packages consist of two wholly separate contracts: for the land and the house.

  1. Buyers must purchase and settle on an Ecovillage lot first from the developer, Sustainable Settlements. If you need finance, you’ll need to apply for a separate loan from a financial institution for the land. 
  2. Buyers then enter into a separate financial agreement and building contract with their chosen builder. Sustainable Settlements (the Witchcliffe Ecovillage) is not involved in this process. So regardless of whether you opt for a bespoke design and build or you choose a house design from our range of House & Land Packages, you will need to work directly with your builder and your financial institution during the home building process.

Documentation and Certifications

NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme) is a star rating system (out of 10) that rates the thermal efficiency of the home’s design. In other words, how well the house can stay at a comfortable temperature throughout the year without artificial heating or cooling.  Every Ecovillage home must achieve a minimum of 7 stars. Read more on our Sustainability Assessments page.

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is an excellent method for measuring the environmental impact of a building by assessing “every single impact aspect of a product or process over its entire life span. We require every Ecovillage home to undertake an LCA. Read more about Sustainability Assessments here.

The Ecovillage Design Team requested its guild of builders meet the minimum requirements outlined in this General Specification Schedule as part of their tender pricing process for Ecovillage homes. There will be variations in the materials, suppliers and pricing they have assumed for certain items. Consequently, we strongly advise you to discuss the specification schedule and associated pricing of your chosen home in detail with your builder so you understand exactly what is being built.
