response we’ve received from the public
at large. In the first two months of 2021,
we sold 23 apartments valued at over
R64-million. We believe that Ellipse’s
combination of resort-style elegance,
world-class amenities and accessibility to
the broader Waterfall precinct has made it
a compelling investment case for property
investors and aspiring homeowners. I have
no doubt that this project will continue to
break records and achieve unparalleled
success,” says Tim kloeck, CEO of Tricolt.

SuSTAINAbLE PRAcTIcE
As with all of Attacq’s developments,
Ellipse Waterfall is being built to the
highest green design and sustainability
standards. The buildings are
predominantly framed in reinforced
concrete, utilising reinforced steel with a
recycled content of over 90% to reduce
the bodied energy and resource depletion
associated with the use of virgin steel.
To reduce the emissions associated
with transport, 20% of the project‘s
total contract value is represented by
materials or products that have been
sourced from within 400km of the site.
Additionally, a selection of insulants that
reduce energy consumption and do not
contribute to long-term damage to the
earth‘s stratospheric ozone layer was used
for all thermal insulation applications.

Giles Pendleton, Chief Development
Officer of Attacq, adds: “The uptake has
been exceptional, and the team must
be commended for keeping this project
on track despite the challenges. One
of the many advantages of building
a city from the ground up is that
every aspect of urban planning and
potential infrastructure requirements is
considered and included before the actual
development is even underway. Beyond
Ellipse’s many attributes, I believe that
investors are buying into Attacq’s vision
of building a world-class city from scratch
through the Waterfall development.”

Construction of phase two is expected to
take 18 months and will conclude towards
the end of 2022. upon completion, Ellipse
Waterfall will offer 590 apartments set
in four towers in the heart of Gauteng’s
fastest growing business node.
