New Aurum residential development launched at Zimbali Lakes

The First Thursday programme rotates within Zimbali Lakes and is designed to provide regular updates on development progress and future phases.

Property industry leaders recently gathered at Zimbali Lakes for the unveiling of Aurum, the estate’s newest completed residential development.

The development, made up of only six luxury homes, has received a Preliminary EDGE Advanced green rating from the Green Building Council South Africa (GBCSA) and the International Finance Corporation (IFC).

The rating recognises its resource-efficient design, sustainable building materials and high construction standards. Compared to similar homes, the residences are expected to use 60% less energy, 30% less water and produce 27% fewer carbon emissions.
