A house unlike any ever built in Australia. The first large-scale Passive House designed to live, breathe and perform in Brisbane’s glorious subtropical climate. Set amongst the gorgeous character homes, groomed gardens and iconic views of Brisbane City, this breathtaking luxury residence breaks new ground. It redefines notions of sustainable living with a level of architectural elegance rarely seen in traditional Passive House designs.

Star architect, Joe Adsett, has created a home of striking beauty and boundless comfort, but what makes this residence unique is less noticeable to the untrained eye. Its seamless blend of luxury, world leading eco-conscious design and state of-the-art technology offers curated living at its best.

First impressions are of a stunning architectural home, yet behind the scenes Vanquish is healthier, quieter and more energy efficient than anything Queensland has ever seen. Through a combination of hyper-effective insulation, an airtight membrane, triple glazing and high-performance ventilation, the house’s crystal clean air is designed to remain a comfortable 23and#730;C year round.

Families will love the beautifully crafted feel throughout the luxury five bedroom home where grand, open-plan living celebrates Brisbane’s vibrant modern lifestyle. It couples no-expense-spared inclusions with energy savings of up to 90 percent for heating and cooling, with a reduced chemical, pollutant and allergen interior environment – where everyone can feel good inside and out.

Homes are a place of living out our lifestyle and a place of connection. Free-flowing open plan spaces bring families together while secondary living, retreat and study spaces also let people spend time apart. When the weather is right, Vanquish takes advantage of its privileged hillside setting with huge sliding doors opening up for alfresco entertaining and to catch pleasant cross breezes. Airtight walls of triple-glazed glass stack away from view, spilling out to the wonderful chemical free freshwater swimming pool with the glittering Brisbane skyline as your constant backdrop.

Bedrooms are designed as peaceful retreats away from the main living areas. Downstairs, a large bedroom and full-sized main bathroom are ideal for multi-generational living, visiting parents and guests. Upstairs, four more generously scaled bedrooms are designed to accommodate large and growing families, and includes an elegant master suite furnished with a wonderfully indulgent ensuite, luxurious walk-in robe and the ever-present views.

At the push of a button unlock your gate for guests, lights go on and music starts playing. Industry-leading Control4 home automation allows the whole house to be controlled from your phone. It also lets you continually monitor energy flowing from the home’s solar array as well as your overall energy use. Solar panels and battery storage aim for near zero energy usage meaning Vanquish produces enough power to run itself without taking energy from the grid. In the roomy two-car garage a high flow EV charging station keeps you on the move.

Running backstage is the heart of the Passive House operation where the home’s internal air temperature and humidity is maintained by an energy recovery ventilation system. This advanced air-conditioning system allows a constant flow of fresh air throughout the home at a constant temperature, no matter what the conditions are outside.

A four-metre-long island bench forms a magnificent centrepiece – somewhere for the family to sit and converse over breakfast and a welcoming space for dinner guests to gather. The liberally proportioned and expertly crafted kitchen offers wonderful connections to the city vistas wherever you are in the space. High-end Siemens appliances include a double pyrolytic and steamer oven plus an induction cook top that reduces indoor pollution by not burning gas inside your home – great for the whole family’s well-being.

Vanquish may be the most advanced and energy efficient private residence in Brisbane, yet it presents as a show-stopping luxury home. From the soaring atrium that carves out light at the heart of the home to the precision-crafted blackbutt timber joinery, the interiors offer immense comfort and natural appeal.

Every detail combines a luxurious modern sensibility with the highest design values. Vanquish fulfils people’s growing desire for clean, energy-secure living and the heightened well-being we now seek from our homes. Hand crafted tap ware, fashioned from solid brass by artisan Australian manufacturer Sussex Taps, features throughout the home adding a beautiful bespoke feel.
