Welcome to a truly exceptional property in the heart of Arkell, where history, craftsmanship, and modern efficiency come together. Originally built in the 1800s and once home to a local blacksmith shop, this one-of-a-kind residence has been thoughtfully renovated to preserve its character while delivering outstanding performance and comfort.Reimagined using high-performance building principles and aligned with passive house design, the home was upgraded with a focus on the building envelope, advanced mechanical ventilation, long-term durability, and superior indoor air quality. The result is a remarkably energy-efficient, quiet, and comfortable home with consistent temperatures year-round.Inside, the main living space has been opened into a bright, cohesive living and kitchen area that blends contemporary design with preserved century details. Original rafters, exposed brick, and a striking floating staircase add architectural interest, while high-end appliances including a Wolf cooktop, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and built-in coffee maker make the kitchen ideal for everyday living and entertaining. A rear addition with cathedral ceilings, moody finishes, and a fireplace creates a cozy, chalet-inspired retreat.Beyond its beauty, the home's performance truly sets it apart, featuring triple-pane windows, a continuous air barrier, and a heat-recovery ventilation system for enhanced comfort, sound insulation, and energy savings.Set on two separate deeds with commercial zoning, the property offers exceptional flexibility for business use, live/work potential, or future development. A detached 900 sq. ft. shop with heated floors provides year-round functionality, while the expansive, landscaped yard offers space to relax, entertain, or expand.Rich in history, meticulously renovated, and full of opportunity, this is a rare and remarkable legacy property.
