Iskandar’s prized gem
SUNWAY Property has unveiled the first landed residential development of its largest integrated township Sunway Iskandar.
The development will offer a world- class city balanced with 700 acres ( 283.3ha) of pristine equatorial rainforest, including natural elements such as Emerald Lake, a mangrove forest, the Pendas river and the Strait of Johor as part of its landscape.
Located in the Lakeview precinct under the Emerald Collection, Emerald Residence is the first landed home development within the 1,800 acre ( 728.4ha) Sunway Iskandar development area.
Staying true to Sunway Iskandar’s tagline Nature’s Capital City, the residential development will offer a majestic lakeside and nature living next to the tranquil Emerald Lake Garden with sweeping views and modern retail convenience at one’s doorstep.
Nestled in 22 acres ( 8.9ha) of lush landscape at the hilltop, Emerald Residence will be home to a series of linked, linked semidetached, linked garden villas and semi- detached units equipped with a modern communal living experience that is close to nature.
The landed units feature the first of its kind 31ft x 80ft ( 9.4m x 24.4m) two- storey linked semidetached units with a built- up area of 2,681sq ft ( 249.1sq m) and 42ft x 95ft ( 12.8m x 28.9m) three- storey semi- detached units with a built- up area of 3,927sq ft ( 364.8sq m).
Emerald Residence will be the first in Sunway Iskandar to be furnished with Astro along with plug- and- play facilities.
Sunway Iskandar hopes future residents will be able to enjoy the readily available amenities and live in a safe and connected environment with their families.
The guarded and gated neighbourhood is situated close to retail amenities, quality education and an upcoming theme park for the enjoyment of families.
The residents will be close to amenities at Citrine, another development under Sunway Iskandar of the Lakeview precinct, and is located 500m away from the seafront straits in Medini.
“We are currently on track with our development and the introduction of our low- density property is a timely addition as the key components in the township come together,” says Gerard Soosay, chief executive officer of Sunway Iskandar
Sunway International School is owned and governed by the Jeffrey Cheah Foundation, a trust fund under the Sunway Education Group. The school is expected to begin its first intake in January next year with a capacity for 600 students.
Making up the commercial aspect of the Emerald Collection is the Emerald Boulevard, which is the first commercial retail shop development in Sunway Iskandar.
Located on the main road towards the seafront precinct and future theme park, the 88 exclusive urban retail shops are now open for sale. Prices start from RM1.8mil.
“We are pleased to announce that aside from the Coastal Highway Southern Link ( CHSL) completion next year, more commuting plans are in the pipeline to provide greater accessibility for the community,” says Gerard.
“We are also currently working closely with Causeway Link to ensure that buses are available for residents working in and travelling to Singapore once the community moves in next year,” he adds.
Following the recent Sunway Property Certainty Campaign, the developer will be offering options of its innovative packages to keen homebuyers for the landed homes in Sunway Iskandar.
The Sunway Property Certainty Campaign is designed to help homebuyers purchase property in the current times of economic instability. This is in line with Sunway Property’s commitment to invest in the communities that it is building.
The campaign will offer three packages, which include a guaranteed loan, deferred payment and voluntary exit plan.
“Sunway Property will assist homebuyers with a certainty package for those who meet the basic criteria with a guaranteed loan, giving them a greater sense of comfort in owning their dream home.
“The guaranteed loan package will allow homebuyers to purchase with a trusted financial arm under Sunway Property with a 12: 88 plan,” says Gerard.
Homebuyers can also opt for the deferred payment option with an initial downpayment as low as 3%. This package also offers zero payment for a period of 12 or 24 months.
Homebuyers also benefit from the voluntary exit plan, which allows them to withdraw from the sales and purchase agreement in the event of an unexpected unemployment.
“The Sunway Property Certainty Campaign is our promise to customers that we are here for them in this journey to realise their dreams of owning a home and to be a part of our community,” says Gerard.
