First semidees and bungalows in Eco Grandeur set to be launched

PUNCAK ALAM (March 16): Eco World Development Group Bhd will be rolling out the first phase of semidees and bungalows at Eco Grandeur, Bandar Puncak Alam, Selangor in 2Q18.

Dubbed Norton Garden, this phase comprises 773 units of semidees, bungalows and garden homes, the latter which will be launched later. It is also the first residential phase in the township to have full-fledged clubhouse facilities. The entire Norton Garden will have a GDV of RM850 million.

The bungalows will have built-ups from 2,959 sq ft to 3,466 sq ft with an indicative selling price from RM1.4 million, while the semidees will have built-ups from 2,159 sq ft to 2,670 sq ft indicatively priced from RM980,000. The garden homes will have built-ups from 1,973 sq ft to 2,142 sq ft but prices have yet to be determined.

“We will be launching around 160 units of bungalows and semidees first as we see the demand from those already living in the vicinity.

“When we launched the first homes at Eco Grandeur in 2016 — the Avenham Garden and Graham Garden terraced and garden homes — some of the purchasers had asked for bigger units,” said Eco Grandeur divisional general manager Ho Kwee Hong.

She added that some people living in the area are also looking to step up from their existing homes to a more wholesome and secured environment with a good range of facilities.

This is the first time the township is launching residential units that have built-up sizes of 2,000 sq ft and above, she told EdgeProp.my. Norton Garden is expected to be completed by end-2020.

“We are also targeting the incoming professional staff of UiTM Hospital, which is currently under construction and set to complete by 2020,” Ho added. UiTM, or Universiti Teknologi MARA, is located just 10 minutes’ drive away.

The double-storey homes sport a modern Victorian concept design and a 20ft back garden. Each unit will also have a balcony on the top floor that is accessible via louvre doors from the bedroom.

Meanwhile, the township is set to see the completion of Grandeur Lab, a retail area that comprises 10 to 15 retail blocks of 1,000 sq ft to 1,500 sq ft built-up each by the middle of next year. It saw its first tenant, the INK Library Cafe, in July last year.

Launched in 2016, the 1,400-acre Eco Grandeur township developed in tandem with the adjacent Eco Business Park V — EcoWorld’s first gated-and-guarded green business park in the Klang Valley — has an estimated total GDV of RM9 billion.

The township is accessible via five major highways — the Guthrie Corridor Expressway, Kuala Lumpur-Kuala Selangor Expressway, North-South Expressway and two upcoming highways currently under construction, namely the proposed Damansara-Shah Alam Expressway and the West Coast Expressway, which will be completed by 2019. Other major roads include Persiaran Mokhtar Dahari, Jalan Meru Tambahan and Jalan Kuala Selangor.

Meanwhile, Eco Grandeur assistant manager Tiong Siow Yin added that there are educational institutions nearby such as the Saujana Utama secondary school, SJK(C) Kuang primary school and SMK Puncak Alam Fasa 2 and 3.

“We are also in talks with Brainy Bunch International Islamic Montessori and another international school, which we hope to be able to reveal the details in the next few months,” said Tiong.
