Whoah!

800k - 1.5mil ... that is expensive ... the huge park and concept looks not bad, but the pricing really killing ...

This place next to low cost aprtment, opposite TNB main station and high tension cable, still can sell at 1.5m??

Saw the email they sent to previous customers and being a resident in Puchong Prima...we're facing a growing population here and the morning and evening jam has increased over the last 4 years due to all the recent development.

Crime is also an issue here especially car windows being broken into almost every other week in my area and we have some usual mat rempits here too...sigh. Hope the gov't will build a police station here to help curb the crime rate.

here the info form the developer write up:-
We are very proud to announce the arrival of the much-awaited boutique development by Mitrajaya Homes in Puchong Prima. Introducing 280 Parkhomes @ Puchong Prima, this low density development boasts of an exclusive clubhouse of more than 30,000 sq feet including a 10 meter-high water slide, water play area for children and adult pool with hydro gymnasium. Other facilities within the clubhouse are a fully-fitted gymnasium, games room, squash court, function room, cafeteria and a unique Wellness Centre (anti-oxidant rejuvenation therapy).
280 Parkhomes consists of 11 blocks of low-rise duplexes in a 17-acre land with a single entry/exit point for maximum security. All units are enjoying North or South orientation to minimize heat especially during sunset. The whole development will be monitored by CCTV in addition to ample security guards patrolling 24 hours to give a peace of mind for the residents. With about 7 acres of landscaped and recreational area, 280 Parkhomes will be acquiring the Green Building Index (GBI) certification as part of our efforts to spearhead environment-friendly living.
With a total of 280 units ranging from 2,422 sq feet to 4,370 sq feet, these spacious duplexes provide the feel of a double-storey house in a safe and secured environment. Each unit is meticulously designed for maximum usage of space and with functionality in mind. The large window panels in each unit allow more sunlight to penetrate for brighter interiors and enhance air ventilation. The topmost units (Type A3 and B3) would even enjoy additional floor space on the rooftop with an AV room and roof garden.

Cascadia townhouse 1700 SF is already RM 530-550K subsale, right? Prices are already high & keep going up even though govt trying to cool down the market.

What about Odora?

Nowadays are all concept selling.  But.. do they need a life guard since looks like theme park..haha

Added on September 26, 2012, 4:00 pmBTW, indicative price is RM900K per unit.  It is 6 storey building whereas each unit occupy two floor.

Odora around 350k i think. I bought nearby townhouse also start at 300k liao. so expensive la this place. 

Yeah man.. Indeed the prize is far beyond my reach..

Huh? Are u sure? I just saw the first page of the Odora thread that the launch price was RM399 for the 1800. This was in 2010 mind you

forum.lowyat.net/topic/1682112

Any news on this project? Have any of you booked a unit yet? I went to the showhouse and quite interested with the concept. But the price is a little more than I can afford (cheapest around 750k after discount) plus the maintenance fee too.
Any advise on other advantage or downside on this project?

Added on November 1, 2012, 2:54 pmAnyone has seen or booked a unit for this 280 park homes? What do you guys think? Really appreciate your comment. My personal view:

- Concept and design is fantastic. In fact this might be the best 'park homes' property type as it is low density with maximum of 6 storeys only. No high or medium rise condo inside.
- Location is ok even though a little bit remote. But with additional access to LDP and LRT puchong prima coming soon (1km away), accessibility shouldnt be a big issue.
- Price IMO is quite high for a leasehold land and the location. But its only RM305 psf (for type B2, the smallest at 2422sf) after discount. Still cheaper than other mega projects nearby such as LSC and The Wharf. What do you guys think?
- Security and surronding : Crime rate is on the rise in Puchong Prima, but this is GnG, so should be very safe right? The downside is that quite many low cost apartments nearby, so the neighborhood scenery is not that good.

Personally I think, this is great for own stay for middle to big size family. But I am not sure whether its good for investment too. How much can the value appreciate? The potential is there as Puchong south is heavily developed and probably mature in 5 years time.

I have gone to the show house and project site and I really like the concept and interested into type A2 unit. I am still deciding whether to place a booking or not.

What do you guys see in this project? Any negative side? Agreed with realproperty that surrounding is not on the positive side, but with positive pricing, concept, security and location, its hard to say no to this right?

Appreciate your comments..

Went to d showroom, it looks more like a lowrise duplex apartment than a townhouse, 800k++, bundle with high tension cable n cheap apartment nearby, maintainance at least 18cents....god bless!

This one definitely the agent, he he he

High tension cable is not that near around 50m to 100m away. Yes there are cheap apartment nearby and lots of undeveloped empty land too (this can be a positive side if more high-end or commercial developments are done here). Maintenance is 20cent psf which I think reasonable for the overall facilities and security (and low density as well, so you don't have to share it with so many people.)

No I am really not an agent.. I am really considering this as both myself and hubby like it for own stay but afraid they are negative sides that we are not aware of.
Maybe you can give some opinions on some new projects nearby or project with the same concept like Odora park homes perhaps?

it seems puchong south puchong prima/tasek prima is also considered puchong south... with a big lake near.. alot potential high end developments will take place as u said,some are already start the constructions work(e.g M-city)... , but some land are under high tension cable,..this place can be a mixed residential area..low cost apartments + high end too .... and +with cyberjaya development in the near future, it would compliment this side of puchong south(both compliment eachother)..but thy need to improve the access to puchong prima.. as at peak it will jam alot... it like one way in/out access from puchong perdana interchange... memang jam lah, ldp pun now seems ok... but there is 2 LRT stations nearby 10 & 11, it should ease the traffic congestions.. i read sumwhr there plan for 2 interchange that will bring access into this part area..one is the puchong utama interchange(near shell/petronas)..i think call it maju-jaya inerchange oso.. but it is still in papers ( i think many years ago they talk about this ady, tapi sampai sekarang satu habuk pun takde).. another i think i saw for NAZA TTDI puchong development, another access will link Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP) to Taman Puchong Permata.. and the access route will be built before the Puchong Barat toll plaza.. i think this to cater the TTDI puchong.. the road join the 2nd roundabout,(puchong-permai).. if got easy access in/out.. should nice.. now they use this route avoid paying toll puchong barat.

Thanks Anniyan for the detailed analysis.. are you a buyer or agent of 280 park homes?

Agreed with your points... puchong south got a lot of potential but it must be supported by great accessibility as well.. LRT station is a good start, one that will surely prosper the surrounding developments.. Puchong Prima and Tasik Prima could very well be self sustaining city with its own mega-mall, cinema, entertainment and leisure places.. projects nearby such as The Wharf and M-City will be among the first.. even these will attract Cyberjaya and Putrajaya folks..

The only limiting factor now is the access road.. Some people also might be scared of the high tension cable nearby.. A new police station also is a must because the rising crime rate and increasing population around this area..
