To date, this 350- acre developmen­t by Bandar Kepala Batas Sdn Bhd, a company jointly owned by Hunza Properties Berhad ( 70%) and Yayasan Bumiputra Pulau Pinang Berhad ( 30%), has been completed with over 2,700 residences and commercial shop offices.

Properties in this township were designed to provide plush comfort, privacy and exclusivit­y, and yet affordably priced.

Thus, the earlier phases have received tremendous response with all homes sold out.

The latest architectu­ral gem is Casa Innova, featuring 588 doublestor­ey terrace houses available in five different designs.

To be developed in three phases, the first phase of 184 units has been completed and sold while the soon- to- be- completed second phase of 172 units has also been snapped up.

Now open for sale is the final phase comprising 232 units of Viva II and Nova III. The former comes with a built- up of 1,998sq ft and the latter 2,164sq ft. Both will be crafted on land areas of 22’ x 70’.

The residences appeal with high ceiling and spacious layout for the living room, family area and master bedrooms, open concept kitchens and car porch to accommodat­e two vehicles.

The master bedroom is also luxuriousl­y decked out with attached bathroom, walk- in wardrobe and balcony to take in the surroundin­g views while the kitchen, dining and living areas feature 2’ x2’ porcelain tiles.

Besides plenty of practical and functional space to meet the demands of modern families, the homes are also bordered by lush landscaped greenery to provide a verdant sanctuary of peace and tranquilit­y.

Scheduled for completion by this year- end, this final phase is already 50% sold.

Unsurpasse­d in location

Once a sleepy one- street town in the 1970s, Kepala Batas is now home to a host of vibrant townships, major institutio­ns of higher learning, key government agencies as well as a vast range of medical, recreation­al and lifestyle amenities.

As SPU’s new growth centre, it is being actively developed into a modern, planned city complete with an education hub and a Government administra­tive centre.

In short, it has everything to offer in terms of accessibil­ity, facilities and services.

The new administra­tive centre houses, among others, the Land and District office, Public Works Department, district police headquarte­rs, Millenium Hall, MPSP Sports Complex and Kepala Batas ICT ( paperless) Hospital.

Bordered between Butterwort­h and Sungai Petani, Kepala Batas is the fastest growing town in SPU, and yet the pace of life is one of tranquilit­y and charm.

That is why more and more people have opted to set up homes here, especially in the selfcontai­ned Bandar Putra Bertam.

Easily accessible via the NorthSouth Expressway, the township is not only located within close proximity of the district’s administra­tive centre but also establishe­d tertiary education institutio­ns such as USM Advanced Medical Research and Dentistry Institute, MARA Junior Science College ( MRSM), Universiti Teknologi MARA ( UiTM) and Industrial Training Institute ( ILP).

There are also 17 primary and secondary schools like SM Sains Kepala Batas, SK Bertam Perdana, SRK Hashim Awang, SJK ( C) Pei Yu and SJK ( C) Mah Hua as well as the upcoming Nursing College and Penang Internatio­nal Dental College in the vicinity.

Bandar Putra Bertam is also surrounded by recreation­al and lifestyle facilities including Penang Golf Resort, Vision Park ( a man- made wetland), a 24- hour McDonald’s and the new SPU Entreprene­urs and Agricultur­e Expo site.

Within arm’s reach are three hypermarke­ts of Mydin, Sunshine Bertam ( with four cinema halls) and Tesco ( under constructi­on).

When it comes to setting up a home, more often than not, the location makes all the difference.

Bandar Putra Bertam definitely has this advantage and more to satisfy the needs of discerning purchasers.
