Marbella properties with eco-credentials

Today’s buyers in Marbella want a mix of styles, amenities and locations, but they tend to agree on a number of things, such as: modern construction build and technological infrastructure, spacious open-plan interiors and high levels of comfort and convenience. Also of growing importance are the environmental credentials of their homes – how they were built, the materials used, the levels of insulation and technical advancement, how much energy they consume in terms of environmental impact and maintenance costs, how healthy they are, and if they blend in with their natural surroundings.This even impacts upon efficient electricity supply, filtered tap water systems, recycled water for irrigation, drought resistant landscaping and solar heated water. Here are some examples of how the market is responding and providing ecologically friendly property for sale in Marbella.
