A beautiful home in Derry called 'The Qube' has gone on the market for £595,000.
The Qube in the Prehen area of the city is one of the few passive houses under construction in Northern Ireland.
It is being built to an exceptional standard of airtightness and is triple-glazed and super-insulated, with heat-exchange systems, so that it requires almost no heating and has cleaner air inside than out.
Rising from a mature and elevated acre site, this magnificent four-bedroom house has superb entertaining areas, private gardens, a stylish carport and attractive patio areas and is found on the Prehen Road – arguably one of County Derry’s finest addresses.
Designed by architect Gerard McPeake, this remarkable home is c.2,500 sq ft and offers a rare position overlooking Lough Foyle.
The house cuts a striking figure from the roadside, its three storeys of design-focused, bright and versatile accommodation perfectly suited for families or those who just appreciate the finer things in life.
Despite its incredible and instantly recognisable architecture and generous dimensions, the house was designed to be energy efficient and easy to run.
Natural ventilation through windows militates any risk of the house overheating in the summer months, while the swathes of south-facing glazing maximise solar gain in cooler periods.
The Qube enjoys a quiet yet convenient location with an abundance of local amenities nearby, including the Everglades Hotel, City of Derry Golf and Boating Clubs and excellent schools.
