ECHO is not just built - it's achieved. Designed by Neil Architecture and delivered by C Street Projects, this residence stands proudly within Australia's first completed multi-residential development to attain full Passivhaus certification - a globally recognised standard for uncompromising quality, precision and sustainable living. With over 250sqm of living space, this expansive four-bedroom home is defined by its thoughtful architecture and future-focused design. Carefully curated for professionals, families and downsizers alike, the floorplan includes a flexible second living zone or fourth bedroom, a powder room, and lift access from the basement garage. Internally, the commitment to excellence continues - from V-Zug appliances and natural stone finishes to extensive custom joinery and seamless all-electric living. A mechanical heat recovery ventilation system filters fresh air continuously, while triple-glazed windows, airtight construction and full insulation deliver unmatched comfort and energy efficiency year-round. Sustainability is integrated at every turn. The solar panel system is battery-ready, EV charging is available in the secure double garage, and every element has been engineered to reduce both environmental impact and ongoing running costs without compromise on luxury. Outside, the landscaping by John Patrick Landscape Architects adds a final touch of liveability and aesthetic depth. With automated irrigation, curated native planting, and a beautifully appointed private terrace or garden, the outdoor experience is designed as a natural extension of the home - inviting, intelligent and enduring. Set in a premier Hawthorn location, this address places you within walking distance of Riversdale Village and Auburn Road's boutique shopping precinct, close to the Gardiner's Creek Trail, and just minutes from easy freeway access. Educational excellence surrounds you, with zoning for Auburn High School and Swinburne University, and close proximity to highly regarded schools including Auburn South Primary, Scotch College, St Kevin's and MLC. With a Walk Score of 89, everyday essentials, public transport, cafés, and green open spaces are all within easy reach - reinforcing ECHO's rare balance of connected lifestyle and peaceful retreat.
