Bandar Country Homes

 

Overview

Established in 1992, Bandar Country Homes (formerly known as Taman Desa) is an integrated township development located in Rawang in the Gombak district of Selangor. Bandar Country Homes was developed by Tanco Holdings Bhd, but the development of the remaining parcels has been taken over by Temasya Mentari Development Sdn Bhd under Desa Country Homes.

 

Bandar Country Homes emerged at the height of the property boom in Rawang and its surrounding areas, spurred by the construction of the North-South Expressway which drastically improved connectivity to Rawang from Kuala Lumpur. This has made Bandar Country Homes an attractive living option, especially for buyers who work in KL city centre.

 

This township is divided into 13 precincts which are built across 700 acres of freehold land. They include a mixed development of gated-and-guarded residential projects, including bungalows, semi-detached homes, terraced houses and apartments, as well as commercial lots and shop offices. Bandar Country Homes is surrounded by matured townships, such as Saujana Rawang, Emerald West, Taman Desa Mas and Taman Bayu Permai.

 

Like its name suggests, Bandar Country Homes’ appeal lies within its concept of modern country living, where spacious homes within a verdant environment are comparatively more affordable than those in the suburban neighbourhoods around KL. Those who choose to reside in Bandar Country Homes get to enjoy the comforts of living in a lush neighbourhood with a close-knit community, yet have the convenience of various amenities and facilities within easy reach.
