There is one open home in Warrandyte: The Panel House. This all-electric certified Passive House – which runs off stored water – features a green roof, a 20kW solar PV system, efficient lighting and appliances, smart home features and much more.
In surrounding areas, you can visit the Electric Alistair Knox home in North Warrandyte and the Eltham Town Treehouse.
Tickets are $9.50 for adults, $6.50 for Concession Card holders and free for under 12yrs old or those with a Carer’s Card.
Can’t make it? Explore the video tours of more than 230 sustainable homes across Australia.
Free in-person events
Our library drop-in sessions will continue in May. If you have questions about going all-electric or being more efficient at home, drop in and talk to a Council staff member in Warrandyte.
Or come along to our expert workshop series at Doncaster Library and take a deep dive into Hot Water Heat Pumps and Reverse Cycle Air Conditioners.

Featuring expert speakers, the series will empower homeowners to build, renovate or simply replace old appliances and move towards a more energy efficient and sustainable home.
