Other things to note
The ground floor of this two-story home is fully accessible to people with mobility limitations (a ramp to access the outdoor deck, and so the home, is available on request). However, the 1st floor can only be accessed by climbing a flight of stairs (indoors or outdoors). Three of the bedrooms, two bathrooms, a lounge room and the outdoor kitchen, pool and an outdoor dining setting are all located downstairs.

The house is solar powered and all windows and glazed doors are double glazed to optimize energy efficiency. We try to walk lightly on the earth

The home is fitted with a security alarm system and so there are three movement sensors (the small boxes near the ceiling) in the home. These do not take images at all, they purely detect movement within the home when the alarm is activated. The alarm is not activated during guest visits.

There is a front door intercom camera system that connects to the upstairs consol near the air-conditioning control area between the kitchen and study nook. Again this does not record anything- it functions like a front door peephole does. It is just so people in the home upstairs can check who is ringing the doorbell.
