Wayton Court is one of the older and well-established freehold apartment blocks located in Pulau Tikus of Penang. The Pulau Tikus suburb is considered to be one of the most "upper class" and prominent neighborhoods in Penang. It has its fair share of mansions, bungalows and colonial buildings, high-rise condominiums (such as those in Gurney Drive) as well as many first class international hotels and resorts.Wayton Court is a low-density development with only 60 units that are housed within a single block of 15 stories. This ensures that the residents of Wayton Court are able to enjoy their privacy but yet still be familiar with the other residents on their floor or within the building. Other similar residential developments that can be found in the vicinity of this apartment are Desa Melor and Jermal Court.There are several amenities such as schools, medical centres and a popular mall that can be found nearby Wayton Court. Some of the schools surrounding it are Phor Tay Private High School, SMJK Phor Tay, Penang Chinese Girls’ School and Convent Pulau Tikus. These schools are all within walking distance except for Convent Pulau Tikus.

For those seeking to own a property that has so much going for it, Wayton Court might be one to consider. This is because not only is it freehold and located in an enviable part of the culturally rich island of Penang, it is also a low density development which allows for better privacy due to lesser human traffic. In addition, it is also very close to good amenities, making it worth considering.However, the traffic along Burmah Road is usually heavy, more so during the school-going rush hour. The morning market at the junction of Jalan Bagan Jermal would further aggravate the traffic situation. Apart from that, the traffic conditions would be smooth in the later part of the morning.
