Pricing and site layout of Eco Santuari Grandezza semi-D come out already meh?

Yea la. Not sure why people like to compare here, compare there LOL.
Either product has its own pros and cons. There is no perfect house. There are many factors involve e.g. person financial situation, person lifestyle preference etc.
For me, I can afford to buy either a Eco santuari semi-d or a Tropicana Aman Cheria.
I eventually decided to buy Cheria.
Here are my reasons.
1) The Type B Cheria is a value buy - 3200sqft 2 storey real semi-D for 1.25million in a low-density landed property neighbourhood with large parks, canals and lakes from a reputable developer like Tropicana :-)Nowadays, double storey houses in some neighbourhood already 1 million over. Tropicana Aman master plan is the brain child of Datuk Edmund Kong. http://www.tropicanaaman.com.my/master-plan/ . Datuk Kong is the master architect for Desa Park City previously. I know he has left Tropicana but you can see the details of his vision and planning in the site layout for Arahsia, Bayan and Cheria. e.g. how the house is being arranged within the neighbourhood, the road traffic flow, the linear garden arrangement etc within the neighbourhood etc.

2)House layout - Cheria Type B Open wide space on the ground floor (combined living, dining, breakfast/dry kitchen area - without any walls that will make the home look big and airy and allow more flexibility to decorate its interior etc). 3 cars can park side by side on one row with another 3 more cars in tandem on another row for the visitors.

3) Cheria is a PanaHome...a smart home (sort of). I want to buy a functional/practical house that solves problems. For example
a) solve the bad air quality inside our house problem/ annual haze problem - https://youtu.be/rYhcnuUnGj0
Uhmm....we are more than happy to share with Eco santuari owners our dirty our air filter is in the future to show how polluted the Klang Valley air is :-)

b) solve the house heat problem and water leak problem - http://www.panasonic.com/sg/homes/technical-feature.html
I want to clarify the point that you said that the material used is a loser. I assume you are referring to the prefabricated concrete used vs traditional bricks.
On the contrary, the prefabricated concrete used is of high quality that need to pass vigorous quality control testing. The reason the material cost is cheaper is because it is pre-built in a controlled environment vs a traditional concrete brick wall that need to be built on site which incur higher construction labour cost.
In Japan, these material is used to withstand strong earthquake and strong wind etc.
In this case, cheaper material does not mean loser material. More expensive material does not mean better material. Prefabricated concrete are high quality product.

c) helps with security monitoring - Cheria comes with prebuilt home monitoring system

As for your concern of Cheria HTC, Most Cheria units is far enough from the HTC as the HTC turn and head north at the Jalan Kebun junction.
The closest unit to HTC is at the northern end of Cheria which is approx 200m-300m. This is an acceptable distance.
Most Cheria units are more than half a kilometer from HTC .
The unit I choose is approx 800m-1km from the HTC.

Regarding the sales status of Cheria. Bear in mind these are millions over dollar homes launched under difficult real estate market.
The sales is actually not bad especially the Type B Cheria.
In fact, the Type B Cheria is almost fully sold as of the latest sales chart.
Type A Cheria has more units available as it is more expensive and it comes with dual frontage design.
Most people cannot envision this dual frontage design yet but I expect that a model house under construction will help.
As a matter of fact, Tropicana has been very generous in term of allocating land for the backyard linear garden for the dual frontage home.
I expect the end result will turn out better than the dual frontage home in Desa park city Amelia neighbourhood.
For those looking for dual frontage home, the type A Cheria are great choice.


At the end of the day, either chosing Cheria or Eco Santuari semiD is a personal choice. Both are nice product developed by good developers.
I figure that I can use the extra $500k difference between Cheria and Eco santuari semiD to go invest somewhere else e.g. buy another DSL, buy another rental properties etc. LOL

anybody here got the Grandezza site plan and house layout info?

yes. I abit cheoung hei hahaha.

I am just sharing my view and thought process with other potential buyers out there.
I am sure there will be potential buyers that will face with the same decision I need to make earlier e.g. Eco Santuari semiD vs Cheria.
When someone raised some points about Cheria that I disagree with or not exactly correct ..I want to clarify it.
Real estate like anything else is governed by supply and demand.
Again there is no perfect home. Everyone need to decide for themselves.

Looks good. Very contemporary/modern look.
Happy to have such an eye pleasing and sharp looking homes in Canal city.
It will raise the profile of the whole Canal city.

Yes . I agree with you all. It's a personal preference and personal decision.
For some folks, the $500k is worth to be paid e.g. someone who like the modern contemporary look of the ES neighbourhood, Eco world brand and premium
All these cannot be measured by $ and cents.

We are not here to say TA is better than ES or vice versa.
To me, we belong to the same Canal City neighbourhood....together we rise. together we fall.
Canal city has something for everyone at different pricing level.
Our property price will rise together if the residents and the developers work together to maintain the beautiful central park, the environments etc.
http://www.tropicanaaman.com.my/master-plan/

The blueprint is there to make this area a very nice area to live and a sought after address in Southern Klang valley. Maybe it can become the Desa Park City of southern Klang Valley or better LOL (dream big dream on) You know ...Bandar Rimbayu has already won the Township of the Year award....so...nothing is impossible..
The accessibility in this area is awesome also once WCE is completed together with SKVE, ELITE and KESAS.

Looks good.

uhmm.....those datuk and tan seri that buy the super bungalow here wont have any problem with that la. hahaha

how come no info on the site plan or house layout for Grandezza ?
EW has not released it?

ic. dont keep the good stuffs to yourself hahaha
share a bit with your northern neighbour. e.g. take your smart phone and take photo of the brochure
interested to see the Grandezza site layout .

okok we will wait for @operaghost or wong tai kor both aka Eco Santuari guru to share your ES Grandezza good stuffs.
Must share a bit with all the LYN forum on the Grandezza info.
Let all the Lowyat member drool over it since Grandezza is the most expensive EW landed property launch to date in Klang Valley.

Thanks buddy.

If I need to use one word to describe what I see... "Grand"



Thanks for sharing.

Betul lah tu.Kita semua jiran tetangga.
Mengetahui maklumat jiran amat penting. Bagi majlis ramah-tamah dan sebagainya dapat meningkatkan perkenalan antara masyarakat seterusnya memupuk semangat kejiranan. Merayakan kebersamaan, meraikan perbezaan dan bersabar dalam perkara yang kurang disenangi dapat meneruskan semangat kejiranan seterusnya mengukuhkan ikatan muhibah sesama jiran tetangga di Canal City.

I think taukeh @DS4 maybe considering Grandezza kut.
Kalau dia beli sebiji Grandezza ....kita boleh pergi party kat his house in the future hahahaha

If there is a will in you...I am sure there is a way .
Do a real estate portfolio reassessment lor hehehe e.g.
Sell dua biji existing properties then buy sebiji Grandeza

Anyway, I am just teasing you la.

Hahaha....sama sama kita majulah.
I am counting on all the ES taikor since EW got so many fansi.
If we can pull some of your EW fans from EM to ES or EA to ES.
Canal city mesti maju punya.

This type of incident can happen any where. I wondered what happen to the guard or guards in this incident in PJU? They sleeping or run away kah?
How to prevent this? Uhmmm..armed our guards also la?, providing better training to the guards to handle this type of situation, hiring better quality guards if the strata housing have the budget for it .
Best prevention is self prevention eg to remind myself not to go out and come home in the wee hours in the morning so often and arming myself with a big baseball bat.

I dont know about Bandar Rimbayu but someone mentioned in the Tropicana Aman thread that there will be a police station nearby Cheria semiD and Sinaran shop lots.
I think he also mentioned something like an entrance arch at the Jalan Kebun entrance into Tropicana Aman.
I know we will have CCTV all over the place in Arahsia, Bayan and Cheria. For Cheria.. on top of CCTV, there will be video intercom and remote security monitoring system through our smartphone.

I am sure ES will have CCTV and tight security also right since this place are mostly million dollar homes or multi million dollar semiDs and bungalows.

On the scope of fitted electronics equipment and security front, PanaHome will incorporate the video intercom and home network system to deter crime. With the built-in video intercom, residents will be able to see the face of their visitors without the need of opening the door. The Panasonic security systems are connected to the smartphone to monitor the status of your home remotely even when you are out of the house.
