Current Display HomesTownsville Queenslander This new two-storey design, based on the original Queenslander style, perfectly demonstrates the combination of original architecture with modern materials and construction systems. The result is a large, low-maintenance home, suitable for inner-city or suburban allotments. It features four good sized bedrooms with two separate living areas, three bathrooms, wide front verandah, large covered rear rotunda (ideal for outdoor entertaining), as well as double lock-up garage and workshop area. As with most of our designs, it has a very high energy-efficiency rating – 6.5 stars – compared with the usual 3.5 stars usually achieved by modern rendered block homes. The result is significantly reduced energy costs for the life the home. Location – 53 Palmerston Street, Pimlico, Townsville.
The Traditional Queenslander’s 6Star Rated Display Home may require as much as 73% less artificial heating and cooling than that of a 3.5 Star Rated Home. (Statistics based on both homes having the same conditioned floor areas, aspect and climate zone.)
