It provides the foundational stability for individuals and families to enhance wellbeing and create a full, independent life for themselves.
Developed as a partnership between Homes Victoria, BaptistCare, and Creation Homes. Our PassivHaus dwellings are in Albion, Melbourne.
PassivHaus is an innovative design standard. It dramatically reduces a building’s energy requirement, while using more natural factors for heating and cooling. This helps residents stay comfortable with less energy usage, and less energy costs throughout the year.
Achieving high levels of energy efficiency
Other dwellings at our Albion location achieve a rating of 7-stars in the Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS). NatHERS is the most common way to assess energy efficiency performance.
A rating of 7-stars ensures long-term energy efficiency and comfort for residents. This is because the homes retain their conditions: once they are warm in cold weather, they stay warmer for longer, vice versa in hot weather. This means residents spend less money on heating and cooling bills, easing the pressure on their finances.
Baptcare Affordable Housing has civil works well underway at 46a Thornhill Drive, Keilor Downs, with 47 new affordable homes, comprised of 23 single-storey and 24 double-storey dwellings.
These dwellings will be accessible by a new loop road through the site which connects to Thornhill Drive. Each home is provided with one car parking space, and landscaping is proposed across the site in front and rear yards and within new nature strips.
This project is part of Victoria’s Big Housing Build, which seeks to deliver much-needed new homes for Victorians and create new jobs to support Victoria’s economic recovery.
