The bedrooms of Starhill Garden Condominium are spacious and stylish for modern living.

Great news for prospective buyers, especially young couples looking to own their first dream home.

The Starhill Garden Condominium, located along Jalan Baru in Prai, Penang, is offering an unbeatable preview price of below RM300 per sq ft for a limited time.

The promotion is truly not to be missed considering that the preview price is at least 15% lower compared with the market price of RM350 per sq ft for similar developments.

Henry Butcher Malaysia (Butterworth) Sdn Bhd head of sales & marketing department Teh Fong Yun said the preview price was valid from now until May.

He said response had been good with an over 20% booking rate since the project was opened for registration during Chinese New Year.

The Starhill Garden Condominium is developed by Aroma Development Sdn Bhd with Henry Butcher as the sole marketing agent.

“We created this marketing concept to make it easier for people, particularly young couples in the 20-40 years age group, to own a home.

“They only have to pay a low initial payment of RM5,000 while the maintenance fee is at 10 sen per sq ft,” he said.

The low density 25-storey development consists of 149 spacious units with built-ups ranging from 1,378 sq ft onwards.

There are only eight units per floor to ensure privacy and exclusivity.

Select from four different stylish layouts with every unit comprising four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The interiors are well-appointed, bright and airy to deliver a home that exudes comfort and class.

Residents will also be pampered with a plethora of facilities including landscaped and rooftop gardens, jogging track, tai chi and yoga corner, BBQ area, children’s playground, reflexology path and a multipurpose hall.

The expected launch date is set for middle of this year.

Residential-titled and exempted from the Goods and Services Tax, The Starhill Garden Condominium also comes with round the clock security for total peace of mind.

Its strategic location also ensures that the development is surrounded by a host of key infrastructures, amenities and conveniences to cater to all your lifestyle needs and aspirations.

The Starhill Garden Condominium is minutes away from the Penang Bridge, North-South Highway, Sunway Carnival Mall, Perda City Mall, Auto-City and Jit Sin High School.

Within walking distance is the soon-to-be opened Mydin Hypermarket while directly in front of the condominium are eight units of three-storey semi-detached shop lots that are selling from RM3.58mil onwards.

Teh added that more and more Penangites are looking to invest in properties on the mainland with the escalating of property prices on the island.

Thus, the future prospects for the property sector here is very bright.

“Now is a good a time as any to invest in properties especially in Penang which is fast emerging as one of the major destinations for property investment.

“The scarcity of land has also led to the emergence of more high-rises which now command a huge market segment,” he said.

Although a newcomer to the industry, Aroma Development is already renowned for its maiden undertaking of Starhill, a gated residential community comprising a 35-storey condominium and bungalow houses located in Bukit Gambir on Penang island.
