Green buildings are a priority to developers and EDGE software helps build sustainable homes. Facilitated through the Green Building Council of South Africa, EDGE certified buildings aim to use resources that cost less which ultimately saves owners money, while promoting greener lifestyles. There are over 10 000 EDGE certified homes in South Africa, which shows that this type of development is growing. Mason is the first green-rated estate to enter Amanzimtoti and through the use of EDGE software has been designed to consume at least 20% less in energy and water, as well as materials that use 20% less embodied energy.

How is Mason green-rated?

With sustainable development as one of its drivers, Mason incorporates several design features which make it EDGE certified. These features mean your environmental impact and resource consumption will be significantly reduced. Your Mason apartment will include:

  • A design and layout which harnesses natural light.
  • Smart meters to track and monitor energy consumption.
  • Solar power geyser.
  • Energy saving light fittings and sensor switches to ensure lights are only powered when needed.
  • Insulated roof to keep heat in.
  • Natural ventilation resulting in less use of air conditioners.
  • Low-flow faucets and fixtures.
  • Dual flush toilet cistern so you can choose the most optimum flush and volume of water.

How can Mason’s design save you money?

Due to its efficient and sustainable design, green-rated buildings like Mason cost less to run. Lower running costs mean that your monthly levies are lower too. The design of your home will ensure you save at least 20% on your monthly utility costs. Now that EDGE certified developments are gaining popularity, and Mason is Amanzimtoti’s first green-rated development, you could gain a 4-10% higher value on your property when compared to standard estate offerings in the area.

Investing in Mason is a win-win situation. Not only will your monthly home running costs be lowered but you’re also part of worldwide movement that upholds sustainable development for the betterment of mankind. This will also enable property ownership to become more accessible for many.
