New Bob Group managing director Dr Lee Ville said the company had always placed emphasis on building eco-friendly green homes.

“This includes maximising the use of natural energy in reducing the consumption of energy from non-renewable sources to reduce carbon footprint.

“The company is also the green home pioneer in Penang. There are not many green homes available on the island,” Lee said in a press statement on Wednesday.

The Manor, located in the prime residential neighbourhood of Codrington Avenue, is an eco-friendly bungalow project comprising three exclusive units.
