The location looks nice as in Cheras. Can anyone please share your thoughts on this township like developer, location, pros and cons compared to nearby township, etc?

I registered my interest and will update here if I got more info from developer.

http://www.emeraldhills.com.my/

sometimes theres a reason why condo in alam damai not selling well.... generally there are a few low density freehold condos there... and the sales going damn slow.... especially those located further behind from the PRIMA ones....

Notice at hill side of this emerald hill have a TNB PMU plant there.
Wonder any study of the EMF reading done before this ? on the radio active ?

Got 2 and 3 storeys too, am interested in 2 storeys but guess price wont cheap

I most concern the cancel healing radioactive

According to this WHO report, there's no evidence that HTC causes cancer:
WHO report

people don't like TNB PMU nearby

If the price is right then ppl might buy it

Hopefully this development will create another entrance..currently the only access is through low cost n old shop lot (which look like abandon shop to me)..

30yrs ago smoking is fashionable n most ppl smoke

Now sugar is as bad as smoking.

Who knows what WHO will publish tomolo.

Where is the location?

The entrance of this project is at rundown shoplot of Desa Cheras. The entire development was part of Desa Cheras

Their showroom is next to Nissan Alam Damai at Damai Niaga.

Understand at Desa Cheras freehold land, this dev die die also have to market it as Alam Damai...

Got showroom already?? Got any more info on this project??

It is better describe as sales gallery. Will check it out next weekend.

Not surprise as the name of 'Alam Damai" is so famous that there are few developments at Damai Perdana like Damai Hill Park and Damai Vista also marketed it's location as Alam Damai. Even Sutera Residences at Bukit Belimbing also did the same. Recently Maxim residence located at Taman Len Seng also renamed as Maxim Alam Damai

Somehow ijm next to it doesn't follow "damai" term, instead, using its own branding Riana, Manda'-Rina...

This conda are just next to PR1MA.

If future you don't mind heavily jam...

Since that now July 2017 here are consider heavily jam

not bad 1.2mil for that kind of land size.... with this distance to KL not really too far away.... just that in and out during peak hours is headache....

the condo abit overprice... around this area... i think only PRIMA have the highest density in term of highrise....

1.2 mil for a 22x75 double storey house is expensive, although they compensated with greenery.

location ma... if semenyih is selling 800k for a 22x75 DSL... here how to sell a similar size DSL with less than 1mil... haha

1.2m, out of budget. I can forget about this...

You can get a subsale 26 x 75 double storey link house at Damai Rasa, Alam Damai or 22x80 new double storey link house at Damai Citra at below 1 Mil

https://www.iproperty.com.my/buy/kuala-lump.../?k=damai+citra

The 4 blocks look dense

Wow! Thx for the info bro, much appreciated...looks like alam damai gonna be
more heavy jam in next few years

Alam Damai is consider high end place in Cheras?

At this part of Cheras - West of Cheras-Kajang Highway from Connought to Batu 11, Alam Damai could be considered as one of the highest end place, apart from The Peak and Hussein Onn.

This post has been edited by kwwong1: Jul 31 2017, 10:21 PM

Anyone has the location in Google Maps? or nearby?

subsales aside... the damai citra one also circa around 1m +-.... hahah.... we assume emerald hills will be given some sort of rebates and freebies subsequently... so its the market price for that area for new landed.... luckily they din make it 20x70 or 20x65 to sell it....

that is provided the TNB high tension power plant which can provide radioactive EMV reading in this area and must be taken and studied by independent party.

if not, have the risk of resident running to health tumors / cancel problems. hopefully SA watching the blog can elaborate further on this

try this GPS coordinate 3.058963, 101.735770, entrance to Emerald Hills

Thankss

guoco did not get off to a flying start but already going for premium pricing. hmm

I think the developer may not have any problems selling the terrace houses. It's a freehold land, has KL address and within 12 km radius to KL city centre. Alam Damai is well-connected to everywhere via highways; one can go south, east, west, north easily.

The condos may be tough to sell at current market, though. 4 nos some more.

I&P has a plan to launch a condoplex in Alam Damai by end of the year. It will be interesting to see how they will price the condos.

Whats condoplex?

I don't think so, unless buyers don't have the cancer problems with the EMV release by TNB PMU next to it.
Believe the old project at the same site had experience bad taking up, that why they revise the plan now.

Freehold but no health, what the points ? unless proven by independent party the EMV reading is low and not harmful ?

Condoplex means duplex condo units. eg Armanee Terrace, Damansara Perdana

We will see how the sales are when they launch the property.

Anyone knows whether the 2-storey or 3 storey terrace is under individual title or strata title ?

All units under strata title

Visited the sales gallery, more info as below:

Do you know in which location will the TNB PMU power plant sittted in this map ?
It looks like in Landed house location, right ?

Strata tiles, means no Gate ? then all the condo residents can freely pass by landed house area until car porch ?

There will only be 1 gate for the entire development, as shown on master plan. Residents have free access to all roads within the development

It should be behind the club house and 2 blocks of condo, as shown on marked-up master plan


Attached thumbnail(s)

Who/Where should we get to confirm on the PMU location ?
was made to know it is at the landed house site.

Y no balcony since bigger unit can afford the small area for balcony
Wasted

for the condo, do they have penthouse units?

I didn't check as I'm not interested on their properties.

Btw, preliminary prices for their properties are as follows:

1. 2 storey 22x75 - RM1.2 mil and above
2. 3 storey 22x75 - RM1.5 mil and above
3. condo - starting from RM620 psf

I'm sure there are many units with balcony. Usually developers using balconies for elevation effect. Otherwise, the façade will be very plain

You need to do some work on google map as the developer would not show the exact location of PMU, as their sales will be affected. Btw, the actual location of PMU is indeed closer to the terrace houses than my sketch

yes, the google map had shown huge PMU just next to it.
but from the map, cant really figure out the exact location.

those interested should take a closer look on this PMU plant

For the 2 storey 1.2m consider exp, maybe bcoz freehold probably

For the same price, there are many option out der with bigger land size example like 16sierra at puchong....

Refer to sketch on google map. The PMU should be near the main entrance to the development

Attached thumbnail(s)

Anyone have any PMU study on development?

sharing one entrance with the high rise and selling 1.2mil?

why not sell 2.1mil?

Compared jiilai and puchong meh?

so what is the distance to be considered as safe?


This post has been edited by twincharger07: Aug 7 2017, 11:07 PM

this property is within 12km radius from KL, and has a KL address.

err....how far 16sierra to KL?

Ya u probably right on location hence the price.

The location even tho closed to city centre but it quite jam during peak hour as the road connected to major highway (eg east west link) will hugely packed with cars due to few traffic light before reaching junction to turn onto the said highway. Hopefully in near future will have alternatives routes.

The residents around is given another traffic option called SUKA highway...

It seem that Malaysia only require 20m from the centre of powerline as minimum requirement compare with 25m distance requirement in Australia. Almost no magnetic field effect after 20m as per photo below.

Well even Australia only require 25m as buffer zone may indicate this is safe otherwise as a country advocate for safety and environment friendly country won't has such law imo.

ya it actually called SUKE highway http://mysuke.com.my/

understand that this elevated highway got objections from various alam damai's existing residences as this highway will cause nuisance to them due to various reasons.

But still is one of a better alternatives as the place currently is highly congested with UCSI already moved there and few development already undergoing or completed. The place seriously need alternatives route...

The outer, IJN (again anagram) projects buyers mainly opposed it, with banners placed on their properties labelling "Tak Nak SUKA".
Those staying at inner tamans are with mixed responses.
Even how much residents don't like SUKA, it is still an option.

P/S: choose to use anagram/typo

I see... good to know...

I see there are also a lot of older development near to HTC and these areas are still going strong like PJ area..

1.5m for 3 storey at this location? i might consider tiara hills for 1.9m if i hv the money

tell me, which parts of KL within 12km radius to city centre that are not jam during peak hours?

Is this the one that the project changed from terrace house to condo? Lol

No, changed from semi-D and bungalow to terrace and condo

got, my current KL house and MIL KL house no jam even during peak hours... problems?

Any Rebate or early bird discount?

No info on rebate, they just do registration now.

Owh so now got terrace? Lol
Is it double-storey?

2 Storey & 3 Storey, 22x75

For more info, please read my post #20, #43, #51

The study is done on EMF from single individual High tension tower cable.

But what is appear in Emerald Hills site is called "Pencawang Masuk Utama" PMU, looks like triple or "x" more severe effect from the EMF c'pare to those individual tower ?

Better to have 3rd party doing up the reading at side there to collect the data, for those interested

Based on Google result: Guidelines from Selangor government, PMU need to be at least 12.2 meter away from the nearest building, my goodness it even closer than 20m for single line HTC, PMC lesser risk than HTC?


Guidelines from
Manual Garis Panduan Dan Piawaian Perancangan Negeri Selangor
BAB 6: INFRASTRUKTUR DAN UTILITI

- Jarak dari sempadan lot
12.2 m (40’)

- Anjakan daripada Jalan
20 m (66’)

name the location. i would like to move to your current KL house location.

This post has been edited by Stamp: Aug 9 2017, 02:32 PM

40 ft is the minimum distance from PMU to boundary of adjacent building. 66ft is the High tension cable reserve, not the setback requirement. Technically HTC could run next to the boundary if there is no setback requirement

It's ok i won't name it, less ppl like u will less chances for congestion to happen.

HTC impact is higher than PMU ie 10-30uT vs 0.1-6.6uT

PMU contains 132KV/33KV transformers, which step down voltage from 132KV to 33KV. PPU then step down voltage from 33KV to 11KV. These PMU and PPU can't be classified as sub-station. Substation is referring to the small 11KV/415V Substations located at housing estates/condo etc.

I see, PMU contains 132kV/33KV, based on the report its magnetic fields less than 10uT. Buffer zone 20m is sufficient

Btw is that man made lake or natural?

should be man made, the original terrain is slope

The graph shown is high tension cable, not PMU or any Stations

A liar exposed.

Buffer zone for PMU is only 12.2 meter compare with 20 meter requirement for HTC implied that HTC has more impact than PMU, no?

A butthurt exposed.

Calling ppl liar when things don't go to ur way. Please do urself a favour by upgrade ur own EQ.

Thanks!

is there a HTC nearby?

if don't mine can share the area you stay with ? this is an ideal place I have been looking for.

he cant share...bcos

1. this place might not be in klang valley;
2. this place doesn't exist;
3. this place does exist but will cost few an arm and leg;
4. he has his private helicopter pad.

Terrace owners can access to the condo's facilities as well right?

Cheras is very big. From Yewlek (Yulek) onwards to Kajang it's considered the jam part of Cheras due to the never-ending constructions and developments. The part of Cheras that's closer to Taman Maluri is considered less congested but it's very very matured.

yes, but the 2000+ units of condo residents can freely walk through your area as well, especially the linear garden when your house don't have gate, only secure by own house glass door..
with single entry, driving in/out is a hassle too...where are those extra car going to park ? probably at the road side before entering the main entrance...
