Modern Energy-Efficient Home in Mārupe

Modern Energy-Efficient Home in Mārupe

Offered directly by the owner — a thoughtfully designed two-storey house with a total living area of 330 m², plus 30 m²of glazed terrace space, situated on a 1,215 m² land plot. The house was commissioned in 2017 and built with a strong focus on quality, comfort, and long-term living — without compromise in materials or technology.

The architecture emphasizes light and space: panoramic glazing, high ceilings, and carefully planned room geometry create a sense of openness and warmth. The grounds are private and well maintained, with dense, shaped thuja hedges approximately three metres high along the perimeter. The interior was created according to an individual design project, featuring a logical layout and extensive built-in storage solutions.

Construction Technology

The house is built using the energy-efficient Austrian Velox system with monolithic construction, providing excellent thermal and acoustic insulation, strength, and durability. Low-maintenance materials were used throughout: Mapei PVC membrane roof waterproofing, Aluzinc fencing, and WPC composite terrace decking.
A complete photographic archive of the construction process is available — from the initial stage to final finishing.

Utilities and Engineering

The property is connected to all municipal utilities: gas, electricity, water supply, and sewage. Internet and satellite television are installed.

Smart Home System

An intelligent home management system based on Z-Wave Fibaro is installed. The interface is intuitive, easily expandable, and adaptable to individual scenarios — from lighting and climate control to security and household automation.

Security

A modern video surveillance system and video intercom with remote smartphone access are installed. Gates, driveway access, garage doors, and alarm systems can all be controlled remotely, with live video available via an application.

Land Plot and Landscaping

The plot features an autonomous irrigation system, a separate technical well, and an automated lawn mower Husqvarna 315X with remote control. Fruit trees grow in the garden, and a dedicated children’s play area is provided.

Energy System

Bivalent heating system: a Junkers gas boiler operates in tandem with a Panasonic Aquarea air-to-water heat pump.
Water-based underfloor heating is installed on both floors, with individual temperature control in each room.

In 2023, a 14 kW solar power plant was installed, generating approximately 14,000 kWh per year, covering up to 70–80% of the home’s energy needs. A net metering system is in place, which is no longer available for new connections.
A 22 kW Mercedes-Benz electric vehicle charging station is installed in the garage.
