Choice location in education hub

-

SYMPHONY Life, developers of exceptiona­l real estate, has launched yet another concept lifestyle developmen­t – the Union Suites in Bandar Sunway, Selangor.

It is a 42-storey SOHO (small office/home office) tower set on a 2.62-acre plot in the heart of education land, where several top universiti­es (with a student population of over 60,000) are located.

Prime location

Union Suites is strategica­lly located a stone’s throw from Taylor’s, Monash, and Sunway Universiti­es, down the road from the popular Sunway Pyramid mall. The Sunway Medical Centre is just around the corner.

Access to and from this developmen­t - which has a GDV of RM432mil and set for completion in 2021 – is via six major highways, namely the LDP, NPE, KESAS, NKVE, Federal Highway and ELITE Highway, as well as the LRT and the Sunway Bus Rapid Transport (BRT).

For even more convenienc­e, one can simply pop downstairs for the basic necessitie­s such as food, groceries, stationery and even the services of a clinic.

Facilities aplenty

Symphony Life pulled out all the stops with Union Suites. Besides all the usual facilities you would expect to find, are two rather unusual offerings – a boxing ring and a futsal field.

To keep the adrenaline pumping, there is a Sky Gymnasium, so named because of the incredible view one gets when pounding away on the treadmill 42 levels above ground.

Rounding out the list are a yoga deck, a Jacuzzi, a wading pool, a swimming pool, indoor badminton courts, a multipurpo­se hall, the Sky Container Lounge, an arcade room, a par course and the Sky Garden. Residents also have the assurance of a threetier security system.

Sized and priced for any budget

There are 626 units with built-up areas that range between 463sq ft and 1,445sq ft. Though compact in size, they are efficientl­y designed to maximise space, as evident in the two completed show units.

Of the total units, 88% are sized between 463sq ft and 835sq ft, with an average price per unit of RM690,000. Depending on your intended use and living arrangemen­ts, choose from Studio, Simplex, Duplex and dual key layouts.

Every unit enjoys a North-South orientatio­n and comes fully-fitted. So one just needs to move in with clothes and perhaps a potted plant.

“Union Suites was designed to match the lifestyle and social expectatio­ns of the younger generation, so everything – from the artistic façade to the fitness features and the different layout options – has an exciting and hip vibe,” says Symphony Life’s chief operating officer Stewart Tew.

Ownership made easy

For those who recognise the investment potential of Union Suites, Symphony Life has made the deal even sweeter – by partnering with Uncle James Hostel (UJH), a leading student accommodat­ion and hospitalit­y agency based in Subang Jaya.

UJH functions as an agent by securing tenants for the unit, as a landlord by ensuring timely rental collection­s and taking care of maintenanc­e issues, and when the need arises, even as a counsellor. Housekeepi­ng services and shuttle bus services are also provided.

In the service industry since 1999, UJH has placed over 3,000 students from 14 countries in comfortabl­e and clean accommodat­ions. Currently, there are over 400 rooms on their books, for a 90% occupancy rate.
