Interested in trying the Passivhaus difference first hand?

Welcome to ECHO Stay, a unique opportunity to experience this award-winning certified Passivhaus project in the leafy suburb of Hawthorn.

When you stay at ECHO.1, you can expect a paradigm shift in what a home feels like, prioritizing your health, comfort, and wellbeing. Here is what awaits you:

• Unwavering Thermal Comfort: The home naturally maintains a stable, cozy indoor temperature of 20–25°C year-round. Residents describe the consistent environment as feeling like a “warm hug” upon entering, providing a comfortable “shorts and T-shirt experience” regardless of the weather outside.
• A Whisper-Quiet Sanctuary: Thanks to exceptional airtight construction, thick continuous insulation, and triple-glazed windows, the interior is incredibly quiet, completely shutting out the buzz of the city streetscape to create a peaceful sanctuary.
• Superior Air Quality: A Zehnder Heat Recovery Ventilator operates in the background to continuously supply fresh, filtered air while exhausting stale air. This system filters out fine particulate matter and pollen, ensuring excellent indoor air quality and eliminating drafts and allergy symptoms.
• Calm and Sophisticated Interiors: The home is flooded with natural northern light from 3m lift and slide doors. The design promotes a deep sense of “calmness and tranquility”, featuring high ceilings, durable tiled floors (kept warm by the building’s superior insulation), leathered granite benchtops, and warm timber accents.
• Sustainable Luxury: The space is beautifully curated with natural, sustainable, and locally sourced furnishings, including a Maker & Sons couch, breathable European flax bed linen from Carlotta and Gee, and a locally crafted hardwood dining table. You will also have access to premium, carbon-neutral V-Zug appliances, a private internal lift, and a 7kW EV charger located in your private double garage.

Ultimately, an ECHO Stay allows you to experience firsthand how thoughtful architectural design, paired with the world’s most stringent energy-efficiency standard, can effortlessly elevate your daily comfort and quality of life.
