The epitome of a development consists of not just the physical, but the collective elements that interact with and within it. Myriad amenities, superior connectivity and nearby conveniences all form the backbone of a good development and it is a rarity to find these attributes converging in an area.
But why worry about looking for one when we have prepared a list for your convenience? Check out our winners of the StarProperty.my Awards 2019 category—The Cornerstone Developments Award to find out more:
The Cornerstone Developments Award goes to the development that delivers the best of the best for landed properties. Residents of the winning development are blessed with a host of diverse amenities, furnishing, and fittings selected to meet buyers’ discerning criteria. An important plus point includes a strategic location that is complemented by a multitude of accessibility options.
Lakeside homes for families of all sizes
Built on Malay reserve land, Desiran Bayu depicts “A Living Tradition” concept inspired by thoughtfully-designed houses that reflect a touch of traditional Malay homes.
Tradition and cultural values infused with contemporary architecture blend effortlessly with natural surroundings while elements and touches within the development were specially created to preserve the local heritage for present and future generations.
This development comprises a mix of double-storey terrace, cluster-link and semi-detached units catering to various family sizes, ranging from young to multi-generational families. Built around a 43-acre lake amid lush greenery, the homes present a relaxing and tranquil sanctuary.
A comprehensive range of facilities around the lake, designed to promote community building and resident interaction, includes a jogging track with outdoor exercise stations, gazebos, open plaza, BBQ pits and picnic areas. There is also a traditional playground designed with games of yesteryear for families to connect, bond and relax.
Modern countryside living in a low-density development
Respect for the natural topography and surroundings is what makes Gamuda Land’s developments stand the test of time. The boutique residential project of Kundang Estates is no exception, drawing inspiration from its countryside charm.
Balanced with a touch of modernity, the 89-acre development features 573 landed residences with a density of only seven units per acre. The home spaces are designed to cater to multi-generational living, and made more comfortable with high-volume interior with natural ventilation that reduces dependency on air-conditioning.
The common ground is the community, where people know one another, live and play together and look out for one another. With this in mind, Kundang Estates incorporates four interconnected parks for people to come together, including a community-led garden.
Enjoy serene French-themed living
Taking its name from famous French painter Claude Monet, the Monet Residences features open-concept homes with serene surroundings that exemplify Sunsuria City’s concept of smart, liveable and sustainable.
The facades are a fusion of modern and French architecture reflected by the delicate window formations and intricate grilles. An open design with no fencing and gates sees internal spaces maximising garden views that invite nature to the doorstep. Each parcel has a centralised French-themed garden intertwined with linear gardens round the houses, bringing a sense of romanticism to the environment.
Jogging tracks, a children’s playground and a common recreational hub, Giverny Park, located at the centre of the development offer a variety of leisure pursuits. The gated and guarded development is within walking distance of the ERL station and close to KLIA while enjoying direct access to the Putrajaya-Cyberjaya Expressway.
