Growth potential:
Newcastle is expanding rapidly, with demand for affordable housing.
Green living concept: Designed for sustainability, community interaction, and a modern country lifestyle.
Scalable returns: A mix of residential, commercial, and lifestyle erven ensures diversified revenue streams. The village is designed in such a way that occupants will have access to many facilities within a private and secure environment. The 7 agricultural small holdings between the houses will sell farm fresh produce, provide stable facilities, and promote outdoor activities.
There will be facilities where people can gather, socialize, and relax, such as a clubhouse, lapa with a braai area, pool, soccer field, netball field, creche, etc.
There is a dire need for independence, and with the new technology available, it’s not only possible but also lucrative.
Refuse and sewerage will eventually be processed on-site and used to generate LP gas that can be used by the residents. The compost and grey water will be used on the agricultural plots.
The plan is to endeavour to recycle or reuse all effluent and waste from the village and work towards a zero-effluent and zero-waste community.
Electricity will be harvested by solar panels and stored in batteries within the individual units.
Roof rainwater will be gathered through the design of the houses and stored in decorative tanks that will enhance the aesthetic value of the homes. Stormwater will also be stored and used for irrigation and toilet water.
Each one of the five phases will be run independently, similar to that of an owner-owned and operated business. Municipal services of each phase will be managed by the residents (homeowners) of each phase in a cooperative community environment.
Eyethu Village will become a lifestyle change opportunity for many residents. The self-sustainability and independence of the township will also be a major attraction, given the current strain and shortcomings of the power grid and municipal services.
