Kömmerling Australia Product 2
SUSTAINABILITY IN STYLE
The Kingfisher Residence is a home that challenges conventional design while embracing sustainability, functionality and enduring style. The six-bedroom, barn-style masterpiece was envisioned by the homeowners, who sought a residence that was not just beautiful but environmentally responsible and energy-efficient.
From the pre-purchase evaluation of the property, the owner’s goals were clear: create a residence that harnesses natural resources to reduce environmental impact, while delivering a home that is functional, comfortable and aesthetically striking. The Kingfisher Residence isn’t just visually impressive; it performs exceptionally well, too.
The home achieved a 9.1-star energy rating, thanks to sustainable materials, energy-efficient design, and a carbon-neutral approach throughout its lifecycle. Its solar heated swimming pool, self-contained pool house and cleverly designed garage with an underground wine cellar exemplify how luxury and sustainability can coexist seamlessly. A standout feature of Kingfisher Residence is the use of Kömmerling uPVC window and door systems, supplied and installed by Energy Efficient Windows Brisbane. These German-engineered systems provide advanced double glazing, thermal insulation and durability, tailored to withstand tropical conditions, UV exposure and occasional cyclonic winds.
Large sliding windows and doors, and a combination of awning and fixed windows, not only frame breathtaking hinterland views but also ensure functional indoor-outdoor connectivity and contribute to the home’s exceptional energy efficiency. Every opening has been designed for comfort, natural ventilation, and longevity, aligning perfectly with the home’s sustainable ethos. Spanning two years of meticulous construction, the Kingfisher Residence exemplifies what is possible when innovative design, expert craftsmanship, and sustainable thinking come together. Every element, from materials selected to withstand a century of use to energy-efficient fittings and windows, reflects a commitment to a future-proof home.
The Kingfisher Residence is more than a house; it’s a testament to thoughtful design, sustainable living and lasting quality, offering a lifestyle where comfort, health and environmental responsibility coexist beautifully.
