In this edition of Estate Living, we’ve taken a closer look at innovation within residential estates across South Africa and beyond.
While each of our estate reviews naturally highlights the beauty, facilities, and lifestyle benefits of the communities we visit, we’ve also spotlighted an element of innovation that could inspire and benefit other estates — whether it’s a smart sustainability feature, a clever solution to everyday challenges, or a fresh approach to community management.
We’re excited to introduce a groundbreaking new product called Dilli It — an innovative delivery solution designed specifically for estate living. With the growing demand for secure, seamless deliveries, Dilli It could be a game-changer for estates nationwide. Our travels also took us to Mauritius, where we met RED4, a dynamic developer focused on creating communities tailored for the South African investor. Their forward-thinking approach to lifestyle and property investment is not only exciting, but also highly relevant in the current global climate.
In addition to our estate features, we’ve included articles that address key issues affecting most estates — from governance to sustainability, security, and resident engagement. And for those who love golf, or are curious but hesitant to get involved, we’re proud to support the Estate Living 2025 initiative to bring more women and beginner golfers onto the course without the intimidation factor.
Mount Edgecombe is leading the way with inclusive, welcoming programmes — well worth a look if you’re hoping to make golf a part of your lifestyle. On the sustainability front, the John Collier 2024/25 ESG and Golf Course Survey is currently under way. It offers valuable insights for estates, developers, and golf course managers looking to align with environmental and social responsibility goals. We’re also thrilled to unveil Vision — our brand-new design and decor feature, offering fresh inspiration and curated ideas for stylish, functional estate living. As always, all the content in this edition is available online; visit www.estateliving.co.za to subscribe and stay informed.
And finally, we’re launching the Estate Living Podcast channel which will be added to our current Video Channel, going live May 2025. Whether you’re a resident, trustee, estate manager, developer, or investor, you’ll find free access to expert advice, inspiring stories, and practical tools to help you build, run, or simply enjoy community living.
