The once tucked-away vicinity of Cyberjaya is burgeoning at an impressive momentum. With ongoing projects from more than 20 developers, Cyberjaya and its surrounding areas are showing all signs of growing into a mature town.
MCT chief marketing officer Teh Heng Chong pointed out that as a 7,000-acre township that sits on a unique location, Cyberjaya has benefited from the government’s constant upgrade of its infrastructure and facilities.
The Express Rail Link connecting to KLIA, upcoming MRT Line 2 and the upgrading of Maju Expressway (Mex) all provide easy access, while the Mitsui Outlet Park and the impending Kuala Lumpur International Outlet have all but promised the growth of property values of the surrounding areas.
Teh said that six years ago, landed properties in Cyberjaya, such as terrace houses fetched RM700,000 on average, and the sub-sale market now price the same properties in the range of RM1.2mil to RM1.5mil.
“High-rise properties that are targeted at students were priced from RM300 to RM400 psf but now the market which has changed its focus to family and investors, are valued from RM500 to RM750 psf,” he added.
MCT’s two ongoing projects are located in Cyberjaya vicinity. It aims to provide affordable housing properties for families and investors looking into an up-and-coming township that provides green living and healthy lifestyle.
The Diandra Tower (Tower Four) of LakeFront@Cyberjaya is the fourth phase of the new residential development. The four blocks are on 17% of 23 acres freehold land. The 26-storey high-end condominium of Diandra Tower is located by a tranquil lake, surrounded by a vast landscape of greenery and overlooking the beautiful skyline of Cyberjaya.
The built-up of the 303 semi-furnished strata units, priced at RM530 psf, ranges from 950 sq ft to 1,292 sq ft. There are two units with built-up of 1,488 sq ft, and another two units with built-up of 1,708 sq ft.
The condominium towers are named after aquatic plants and symbolise their unique features with modern architectural elements. The high-end and stylish living is enhanced with a walk-through centre-piece from North to the South End. The amenities include fitness centre, Olympic-sized swimming pool, wading pool, sports facilities, launderette, outdoor amphitheatre, jogging tracks and so on.
As part of its CSR initiative, MCT is also building the first-ever Chinese primary school in the area, the SJK(C) Union at Cyberjaya, which is expected to be opened in 2018.
For families looking for affordable landed properties, look no further than Cybersouth, another serenely green paradise blessed with the convenience of Cyberjaya.
MCT will be opening the property gallery on May 7 at Cybersouth, a two-storey link house residential development that sits on 40 acres. Catering to the varied needs of the modern buyers, all 530 units with four bedrooms have spacious built-up ranging from 1,959 sq ft to 2,702 sq ft, with a starting price of RM629,800.
Pitching a naturally down-to-earth living, CasaView contains many natural elements and thoughtful additions that come together in a harmonious way to create the perfect balance to a busy modern life.
Sprawled across a 417-acre piece of leasehold land, the residential area includes a verdant 25-acre central park and a beautiful lake, as well as a community club.
The township is merely 400 meters from Putrajaya and 1.5 km from Cyberjaya, and surrounded by educational centres such as SRK Dengkil, SMK Dengkil and UiTM.
The major highways such as Putrajaya-Cyberjaya Expressway, Elite Highway, South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE), New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE), Mex as well as the Damansara-Puchong Highway, which links to the B15 Jalan Puchong-Dengkil route via the Persiaran Utara Interchange, all provide easy access.
For small families looking for a more mature township, MCT will be launching the Reo Suite (Sofo) as part of phase three of One City, the final phase development that spreads across 20 acres of freehold land.
An iconic silhouette rises in the thriving suburban hub of Subang USJ, Reo Suite sets to tantalise the dreams of the modern generation, offering 1,115 units of studio and two-room suites with built-up sizes ranging from 370 sq ft to 609 sq ft, and priced from RM830 psf.
Perched on the prestigious address of Subang USJ, Reo Suite boasts an excellent vantage point and a panoramic view of the surroundings.
The facilities include infinity pool, Jacuzzi, yoga deck, BBQ area, steam room, sauna, gym room, dance studio, prayer room, meditation room, games room, Zen Garden, multipurpose hall, roof garden and viewing deck.
A good selection of international and local schools are located in the area, while Taylor’s University College, SEGi College, Inti International College, Monash University and Sunway University are within a 15-km distance radius, making it an attractive investment option for those looking for properties catering to the student population.
Reo Suite enjoys excellent connectivity and accessibility as it is strategically located within several minutes’ drive to major highways, namely the Damansara-Puchong Expressway, the Elite highway, NKVE, the Shah Alam Highway (Kesas) and the SKVE.
The upcoming LRT extension train services from Kelana Jaya Line is set to provide convenience of mobility to One City Phase Three.
As noted by Teh, MCT holds the trump card of an A-to-Z in-house operation as an integrated developer.
“From design, planning, construction to marketing, everything is done in-house, allowing us to monitor and maintain the cost, speed and quality of the projects, and adjust to the current market trends.
“The upcoming townhouse project at CyberSouth, with an indicative starting price of RM400,000 and Rumah Selangorku with an indicative starting price of RM100,000, are MCT’s commitment to build more low-cost and affordable housing in accordance with the market demand,” he said.
