Built with sustainability in mind.

Amaroo seamlessly intertwines with its environment, a testament to our commitment to long-term sustainability. The weather in Decatur graces the property with a mild maritime climate, fostering an atmosphere conducive to harmony and balance.

Water, a vital element, is sourced responsibly. A 350-foot deep well yields over 1000 gallons daily, surpassing the County’s domestic permit requirement. Complementing this, a thoughtful rainwater harvesting system, featuring two 2500-gallon tanks—one for potable water and one for the garden—ensures a comprehensive water strategy.

Power at Amaroo is a story of innovation. The property holds rights to 40 units from a local solar farm, translating into credits that significantly offset its energy costs through the County co-op, Opalco.

When temperatures dip, the main house relies on a heat pump, with the added reassurance of an open fire as backup. It’s a synthesis of modern efficiency and traditional warmth.

Yet, Amaroo’s commitment extends beyond utility. The property harmoniously blends into its forested and waterfront surroundings, employing fire-resistant materials and a soft green color palette. The main house has undergone meticulous “fire wising,” ensuring it stands as a resilient sanctuary amidst the natural beauty that envelops it.
