“Only developments that serve the people living in them and genuinely improve their daily lives will stand the test of time,” states SevenCo Sdn Bhd.

Driven by this ethos, the developer steps into the real estate arena to redefine industry norms and ignite a bold new era of visionary and transformative development.

“Every master plan begins with a fundamental question: How can we create purpose-driven, sustainable and attainable communities, and place lifestyle, wellness, family and longterm value at their core?” SevenCo tells EdgeProp in a written reply.

Though newly incorporated in 2024, SevenCo’s foundations are built on deep industry experience. Its multidisciplinary leadership team brings extensive expertise spanning township planning, architecture, construction management, project delivery, finance, sales and marketing, and property development.

Translating its development philosophy into reality, SevenCo brings forth Sevora Residence, a freehold development in Bukit Mertajam, Penang.

Priced RM430,000–RM489,200, the project provides an attainable pathway to quality homeownership, yet offers spacious layouts ranging 950–1,374 sq ft, with a practical three-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration well suited to family living.

Set on a 3.45-acre site along Jalan Song Ban Kheng, this condominium houses a low density of only 420 units within a single block of 33 storeys, complemented by eight retail shop units to serve daily needs.

Gateway to resort-inspired lifestyle

Sevora Residence seeks to redefine the expectations of affordable housing by delivering a resort-inspired lifestyle. From the moment residents arrive through the grand guardhouse and Arrival Fountain Court, a sense of exclusivity sets the tone.

With elevated views on the facility deck, the Sky Lounge and White Cottage provide tranquil nooks for relaxation amid lush landscaped surroundings. Complementing these are a series of inviting leisure spaces, including the Aqua Deck, Sun Deck, Hammock Garden and Ramp Garden, so residents can simply take a break any time and day — no long drives, no luggages, and no annual leaves expended.

The wellness experience extends further through facilities such as the Yoga Deck, Wellness Garden, Reflexology Path, Taichi Park, Linear Park, and Pocket Park, encouraging residents to embrace a healthier and more balanced lifestyle via just a lift ride away.

Reinforcing its family-focused appeal, the development includes a conveniently-located kindergarten on the ground floor, while playtime is catered for at the Kids Wonderland and Kids Lagoon on the facility level.

Adding to the stamp of premium are mindful touches such as wide residential corridors, spacious resting areas and two dedicated dropoff points, all designed to enhance the functionality and liveability of the development.

Mature, well-rounded suburb

Beyond the development itself, Sevora Residence benefits from its location in the heart of Bukit Mertajam, one of Penang mainland’s most dynamic residential addresses. Combining mature infrastructure with a comprehensive range of amenities, the suburb continues to gain prominence among homebuyers seeking well-rounded lifestyles outside the buzz of the island.

The abundance of educational institutions in the vicinity is an added appeal. Younger children can begin their learning journey at High 10 Kids: Bukit Emas before progressing to established schools including SJK(C) Beng Teik (Pusat), SJK(C) Kim Seng, High School Bukit Mertajam and SMK Convent Bukit Mertajam.

Families seeking an international curriculum can also consider Assumption International Secondary School.

Everyday conveniences are also well catered for, with easy access to retail and grocery destinations at AEON Mall Bukit Mertajam, Billion Shopping Centre (Kota Permai), Mydin Bukit Mertajam, Econsave Alma and JMS Freshmart.

Quality healthcare is similarly within reach through Bukit Mertajam Hospital, KPJ Penang Specialist Hospital, and numerous clinics and pharmacies across the mature suburb.

Recreational opportunities are equally abundant. Outdoor enthusiasts can immerse themselves in nature at Bukit Mertajam Forest Park or enjoy leisurely strolls and family-friendly recreation at Taman Rekreasi PBAPP Bukit D.O.

Connected address, emerging growth corridor

As the seat of the Central Seberang Perai District, Bukit Mertajam is strategically located near the Butterworth–Kulim Expressway (BKE) and the North-South Expressway (PLUS), allowing residents to benefit from efficient connectivity within mainland Penang as well as inter-state travel.

The nearby Penang Bridge also provides seamless access to Penang island, connecting residents to key commercial, employment and lifestyle hubs.

The growing appeal of Bukit Mertajam, and mainland Penang as a whole, is underpinned by the continued expansion of industrial and manufacturing activities across Seberang Perai, Bukit Minyak, Batu Kawan and the adjacent Kulim, Kedah, transforming mainland Penang into an important employment and economic corridor. The influx of investment has attracted a growing workforce, spurring the development of supporting infrastructure and amenities, which collectively contribute to a more complete ecosystem in the region.

Future infrastructure projects are set to add more value, including the Juru-Sungai Dua Elevated Highway, which is expected to alleviate traffic congestion along a busy stretch of the PLUS Highway, while the future Mutiara Line LRT, including its planned connection to Penang Sentral, is expected to further strengthen connectivity between Penang island and the mainland.

“Expanding into Bukit Mertajam is a natural step for SevenCo and aligns perfectly with our strategy of focusing on areas with solid, long-term potential. We see Bukit Mertajam as an essential growth hub within the country’s northern region, and our priority is to build developments that genuinely respond to where the market is heading,” SevenCo states.

Long-term value

As mainland Penang continues to evolve, Sevora Residence is well-positioned to capitalise on the opportunities arising from the region’s ongoing transformation.

This is on top of the development’s already compelling proposition for homebuyers and investors — offering freehold ownership, resort-inspired facilities and spacious layouts at accessible price points.

For a limited time, purchasers can also enjoy other attractive purchase incentives, free fully fitted kitchen cabinet and free legal fees on sale and purchase, and loan agreements.
