Buyer Benefits
Energy
Lower energy bills are achieved through energy-efficient designs, including double-glazed windows, energy efficient appliances, and cooler roof colours. Solar panels on rooftops will further reduce energy costs for residents and significantly reduce CO2 emissions.
Expansive Green
Spaces
Over 200,000 native trees, shrubs, and ground covers will enhance biodiversity, reduce watering needs and increase local air quality.
Fossil Fuel
Free
Infrastructure
Excluding natural gas allows residents to use 100% renewable energy, eliminating their carbon footprint through solar, wind, and hydro power. Residents also have access to 100% Greenpower®, which improves air quality by eliminating harmful emissions from cooktops, ovens, and heaters.
Water
Retention
Rainwater captured on-site will irrigate gardens, conserving thousands of litres of potable water each year and helping to reduce water bills, while the installation of water-efficient appliances inside homes will further lower both water consumption and costs.
Transport
Sustainable active transport is prioritised with 2.5km of pedestrian networks that promote healthy living. Additionally, electric vehicle charging stations will be available throughout all parking areas and within garages to support the transition to lower-emission transport.
Amenities
Resort-style amenities, including pools, a gym, yoga studio, and tennis court, are available to all residents, along with a 1.2km waterfront boardwalk and one hectare lush park, all promoting a healthier and more active lifestyle.
Safety & Security
Security access systems, smart technologies and energy efficient street lighting will be used to enhance security for residents.
