PENANG’S property offerings have a far-reaching appeal, as reflected by a group from France who visited the 1Tanjong luxury condominium project in Tanjung Bungah.

The French Teochew delegation, numbering around a dozen people, were in town for the 16th International Teochew Convention at the Penang Teochew Association.

They decided to check out the development by Province Valley Sdn Bhd, a member of the Lone Pine Group of Companies, for potential personal investments, according to its general manager Mabel Ooi.

“We are indeed honoured to have visitors from overseas,” she said.

The delegation later visited tourist sites including the Kek Lok Si Temple, the Sleeping Buddha, Han Chiang College, Sun Yat Sen Memorial, Esplanade and Khoo Kongsi landmark before leaving for home on Nov 5.

The 1Tanjong project along Jalan Tanjung Bungah, comprises two 41-storey towers overlooking a central podium with rooftop facilities.

Comprising only two units per floor and two private lifts opening to private lobbies, it is touted as the first condominium in Penang to have vertical landscaping.

Typical units are 4,760sq ft, penthouses are 9.600sq ft and those units on the top are 18,600sq ft .
