Hello guys! The Chemara hill in Seremban was closed few years ago but now Sime-Darby has taken over the whole project and now are clearing the land. I'm just intereted in this project cause my father is also interested in it and he asked me to get info about it. I googled it and all but nothing seems to pop out but there are already banners about it on huge billboards around town. If any of y'all property GURUs get any info about this project, can you guys please let me know by posting in this thread. We shall use this as the official thread for this Bukit Chemara, Seremban project by Sime-Darby! Thanks guys!

First Update : 03/03/13

First launching homes are link homes which are starting from RM500K++ and Semi-Ds are the second phase which will be starting at RM800K++. Bungalows will be launched later. Looking at the price range given by Sime Darby Property Malaysia themselves, I can see that it might be a luxury living area. Can't wait for more updates!

Second Update : 26/08/13
Sime Darby has created a small page on their official website about Bukit Chemara, Seremban and has some info also about the location and what they are going to build.

WEBSITE LINK : Sime Darby - Bukit Chemara

Got the first major update on the project given by Sime Darby Property Malaysia themselves!

Anymore info?

Where is this?

This is opposite Kemayan Square.

If you come from town, take a left turn a the AST/Permai + junction towards Taman Permai. As you drive down the slope, you will see the land clearing on your left. That's Bukit Chemara.

Just search it in Facebook by typing Bukit Chemara. Hope it helps.

saw their setting up banner last 2 weeks for Super-link, Semi-D & Bungalows, but still not post in official website, any extra information?
i need check the house plan, Sime Darby Property like design with toilet in living room, weird. bad fengshui design

Anyone has the latest info on the pricing?

When I called the last, they were still sticking with the RM800K Semi-Ds lah.

icic..so the link house will be around 500k?

Yup, that's what has been quoted to me. Also, their Bungalow Villas would be in the third phase of the project estimated to start from RM1.2Mil ++.

Any idea when is this set to launch? Starting with DSL I presume...

Most probably somewhere in the middle of next year. Just an estimation.

Anyone got the link can c more info about tis project?where is the sales office?

how to afford such houses with RM500k starting? already so many this kind of house.

hi, last two week we call to sime Darby and the customer service said double storey link House is 600k onward, semi d is 980k onward and Bangalow is 1.6million onward. how come the rate increase so fast? she said all the while info she gotis this rate.

anyone have any new info for this?

WoW! That increase was fast and steep. Hmmm. What are Sime Darby trying to achieve. I know the quality and finishing of their projects have been very good but as my dad said when he heard the price, "This is Seremban and they're charging like that". In fact he has a point because the powerhouses in Seremban have all moved to Sri Carcosa in Seremban 2 or to the luxury of Seremban 2 Height? Why so high price for something in the middle of slow, quite Taman Permai? It's because finesse and luxury I guess. The price of the bungalows are the same I guess, since the last I asked. My dads eyeing on the bungalows not. No official sitemap or plan has been released by Sime Darby.

All got any update for this project? heard tat got alot people interested for this project..

Yea. Lots of people interested it seems. They have already fenced up the perimeter and put up posters on the makeshift fences and have already started construction work.

bandar ainsdale ds around 450k. expect this to be >600k.

Where is the place actually? My understanding is at Jalan Labu, old road to Nilai starting from Bomba near Imaju Bukit Kristal there. I saw land clearing and a sign board stating Sime Darby. I am quite sure I saw a SIME DARBY Logo and company name at the board.

Haiz, this will pressure the employees to demand for higher salary from employer due to committment towards the property they bought. RM600k figure will need a salary of RM7k onwards to buy it.

No sis, this one is located near Taman Permai 1. Opposite Kemayan Square. The one you are saying is Bandar Ainsdale which is located Labu - Nilai Old Road. Bukit Chemara is opposite Kemayan Square near Taman Permai 1 and Taman Duyung. Near KPJ Seremban only.

I thought seremban_2 is a bro
The location is as mentioned by hertz. I thought he should know the location better since he's from seremban.

Haha, I just playing with my profile. hehe! Male female make no difference. I haven't been back for a year +++ so it might happen when I just left malaysia for Bukit Chemara. Such a high price tag 500k or 600k for Serembanian and might need a round 6k to qualify buying it. Now in dilemma whether to buy a property fast fast when I go back Seremban. Like a huge increase comparing back 5 to 6 years ago when my friend bought.

This post has been edited by Seremban_2: Aug 25 2013, 08:35 PM

Exactly bro. But Seremban 2 now also damn high the price. Especially Sri Carcosa and S2 Heights.

First post updated guys! Check it out for more info on Bukit Chemara Seremban from Sime Darby themselves.

Those property are for people who can afford to buy.
Shop lots next to Seremban High Court abandoned. I think it will be a good investment and undervalued.

Yea bro, correct.

I kinda prefer this location vs Seremban 2, just before the Jln Sg Ujong traffic condition. Feels more centralized, between Seremban & Seremban 2.


Would be better when Palm Mall opens soon

This post has been edited by scoop7: Sep 3 2013, 11:51 PM

Very true bro. Its like in the center of the whole Seremban. When Palm Mall opens, this place is gonna be bustling. Taman Permai residents also lucky. Share the glory. Haha!

about taman permai, i've noticed that the prices are going up. lelong units used to be ard 50k-60k, now it's 70k-80k

Haha! You're right bro. Permai becoming center hub as everything has to go through Permai. With Palm Mall coming up, another increase is not vry far off. We'll see as time passes.

if you guys need to get more detail ,
PM me. will share the latest update with you all =) .

This post has been edited by jaychan: Sep 24 2013, 04:41 PM

Why dun you shared it out here ?

Anyway, pls share with me those info via PM if its deem not appropriate to the public .

Thanks

The info not finalize ..by register at Sime Darby website , you may get info. But if you close with Sales person, the info more accurate

can PM me? actually we "curi curi" went to site for visit the Half way build demo house. found that the toilet door face to the main door..the concept design not really good..haha

Heard that i will launch by Sept but still no news yet.

I believe there is a reason for the delay in launching.

I also eargly awaiting for it to launch!

Do you all heard the The Hill Residence project? at templer one...
Found that this project not bad but lease hold..

The concept is good, with club house and so forth. I heard it is lease hold as well, any idea what the price like?

That day went for meet the sales person. 2 1/2storey semi D is 920K, 3storey semi D is 950K ...and now got early bird discount is around 65K. but the problem is lease hold. The concept very good but every month need pay maintenance fees RM 400.

no curi curi take photos? share share la

not to mention some will face the 'famous' Templer 14th flr flats

Yes..the sales person got mention that the unit sell now actually is face to Templer "twin tower"..haha...

did the sales tell you y 14th flr so famous?

no oh..why? got story?

Templer 14th flr flats famous for people jumping off to suicide.

it's a most sought after place to jump in seremban.

used to be at least one case a year, now they implemented access card system, seems no one jump anymore

yaya, this building used to be the most famous building in sban, 邪邪邪

Yup. True. Always confirm got at least one case per year. Sad.

Exactly....the project much nearer to LEKAS Expressway

You mean the hill residence?

Hill Residence is near LEKAS. But with 3 major schools there, traffic is horrible during the school hours. Not to mention the road to LEKAS is single lane (per way), every saturday you'll see heavy heavy traffic



So when exactly Sime Darby will open Bkt Chemara? Last I called , they told me Sept. Now already end Sept...

October maybe. Haha! They will always drag it. Same as Nilai Impian.

Yeah, Templer area used to be a nice place to stay before but not now anymore.

Chemara seems to be much better but it seems that SD are just delaying the launch, maybe they want to wait till Palm Mall is launched to the public as it will fetch another 20% premium over the current condition.

But if i want to buy a house in Seremban, i wont buy @ Chemara [ lets say i have the $$ ] cause congestion is the order of the day when Palm Mall is launched and it will be another "USJ Persiaran Kewajipan". Buy where ? There is a new project near the roundabout of the Istana Hinggap @ Sban Lake Gardens

wait for GST announcement?


i know that lake garden project.. heard it's on Malay reserved land, any issues will arise from buying a house on Malay reserved land?

If you purchase it via the developer, it should be fine, however during resale you would need permission from the Land Office.

Guys, noticed "Palm Mall" being mentioned. Where is this located? Curious...

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Palm-Mall-Se...385462318160529

.bad news...
sime darby now say they plan to launch bkt chemara by end of this year or january next year! they keep on postpone! the worst part is the minimum price for link house now 700k!

Build Progress - Guard House exterior done! Interior not yet lah!

Front guard house


Taken from Sban FB

12/10/2013

I heard that Chemara gonna launch by mid of November 2013 - 1st launch for super link 2 sorey 24'x80' ....Sime got huge registration...

Hi all...due to bukit chimera keep delay the project and price increase. We already decided not to wait and bought the semi d at seri binjai,rahang which develop by ijm.
The show unit will ready by end of this month...we curi go in survey again....found that the layout plan actually is good compare to chimera. Mayb you all can go there see see.

Actually this rahang location also quite strategic....matured township.

how much semi d at seri binjai?

the Price 888,800 with rebate 20,000. you can curi go site visit...the design House plan really not bad. let me know if u need the photo...

after rebate Wil be 868,800..

Location wise , Bkt Chemara wins as its in the middle between Old Sban and Sban2.

Sri Binjai is really over priced ~ as usual la IJM

You guys knoe the history of the current Sri Binjai ? we called it the "monkey hill" ~ ask any old timer Sban folks will knoe

yeah... lots of monyek... but they got evicted by IJM

Sri Binjai is over priced... but sime darby is playing delay game & probably will increase price again

Yes..know is monkey hill but evicted now. But currently the property market at seremban actually also overprice. If we compare back the super link between chimera 700k++ (not yet final price mayb will increase again), super link seri binjai 500k++..both gated and guided concept.

The reason decided we not to wait chimera due to don't like their tactic for the price increase and delay the project for sime Darby . The layout of the design of ijm seri binjai better than sime Darby.(just own opinion only)....somemore actually we bought is for residence purpose..hehe..

Yesterday went for ijm office that found tat so many queue for the s2 apartment project that launch today and found that actually nowadays seremban property market now actually abit like kl..haha..

Thats the time to sell your investment on houses/apartments and get the cash ready to strike when the "herd mentality" ppl go BUST !!!

This is how the game is being played.

Still has no detail on the Chemara yet, such as floor plan and price?

SD will have to repackage its offerings as foreigners can only buy props that are priced above 1mil now.

SD not keen to sell cheap

If i want to raise a family, i dun want it to be so near to Palm Mall. I'd get some bungalows for less than RM1mil at Rasah Kemayan (between S2 Heights and Sendayan) and make babies. The place is being rejuvenated.

Hi, just wondering, who will be the people who are interested to buy or will buy into Chemara if the double storey superlink houses from RM700k?

Buyers will be from Seremban ka?

As my previous post..we already give up to wait the Chimera project as the date and price keep postpone & increase. We already bought the Seri Brinjai house..hehe..

Entrance wordings all done. Even lights up at night

10 years ago Double Storey Terrace was like RM100k and now RM300k to RM500k to buy a double storey house.

10 years ago, you can loan rm100k to buy the house that sell for rm100k, but now you can only loan a maximum of rm150k to buy the rm300k house.

Banks are smarter now.

hihi, let me know if any of you have the latest news of Chemara hill.

Thanks.

I was pay a visit to Seri binjai, i personally feel the link house have better design compare to Semi-D, it look more spacious, may be don't have too many corner showing...that's what i feel ...

and as others mentioned, I try asked around people who stay in s'ban, the place very famous in haunting cases ..hmm...may be people who stay in s'ban can testify this...Pls don get me wrong, I just hope you can get a decent house in peaceful mind

i think show house open for viewing since last weekend..many cars parked outside guardhouse

Heard tat Chimera hill open for sales! 24' X 80' intermediate house selling at 738K, end lot 950K, corner 1.16m. Very expensive!

only gated and guarder, lake , football field and pavillion.

expensive? i heard many KL & S'pore ppl buying half of them

Last time seremban rasah kemayan was bought by kl and singaporean in 1996 to 1998. That area took a long time to pick up and some even make a loss. I prefer use the money buy eco hill or eco world if i am rich.

i heard now they change location to MAA building next to terminal 1 which is ever higher.

today went to the show unit...almost 80% (non bumi lot)being booked for Superlink.

RK is a goner now, many break-in and owners selling cheap cheap also no one want !!

RK hard to revive ady..
based on below map, dead ended.
cant help much even if the path is opened.

https://forum.lowyat.net/uploads/attach-49/...-1387206784.jpg

More expensive than S2. By far, the most expensive in Seremban. There goes my dream house.

Looks like Bandar Sri Sendayan is still the cheaper option in Seremban, double storey intermediate ranging around 400k, corners around 600-700k, besides its a mega and a more comprehensive township project. Only thing its gonna take atleast 3 more years before more population start moving in.

Went to the site yesterday. IMHO, Bkt Chemara is definitely an exclusive development with an area of 48 acres.
Superlink (24 x80). There's 2 phase (approx ~140 units), whereby only the first one launched currently. Next will be Semi-D (~70 units) and followed by bungalow (~30 units).

Single entry (G&G). No clubhouse. Maintenance fee RM180/mth.

Superlink are from 780k. The one closer to show house is priced from 800k onwards.
End lot from 1.07M. Corner 1.5M above. End lot and cornet lot is built on 27 x 80.
All units comes with 5 rooms and 5 bath. Intermediate built up is from 2,500++ sqft.

All corners and end lot has been taken.
I think this was taken mostly by SD staff & Prime card holder. It was only open for booking to registered applicant/public from Friday 2pm.

Total take up rate stood at 40% as of yesterday according to SA's.

this photo took during launching day last saturday..can see alot unit had booked..

Hi, the show unit near the entrance is the left top first and second unit.

I believe is last saturday because the sales person told us last friday open is for Sime Darby staff, saturday morning is prime customer, sat after 2pm is public..
