Battle Point 2019

Battle Point

We built the house on our 250ha site just before the new fire regime came into effect as we were aware we would not be able to build on the site after that, being in the BAL-FZ.

The house is tiny, our intention being to build a larger house at some point, but that never happened. Our design considerations were to be warm, self-sufficient and engineered for strong winds, each of which we achieved. The house is a highly modified kit home built on a low budget and designed for low running and maintenance costs.

We have since added an underground cellar that can act as a fire shelter and have a large shed that hosts our off-grid solar system and water tank collection roof.
