SINCE 1995, when IJM Land Bhd launched Seremban 2, the 3,800-acre freehold development has matured into a satellite town located four km southwest of Seremban city. It has become a catalyst that transforms the area into a thriving vicinity which vies with the old Seremban town centre.

A green urban neighbourhood
Designed with care and passion, IJM Land adheres to the theme of “Town & Country in One City”. The integrated and sustainable township channels the concept of “green street” when crafting out the landscape that mixes the open spaces, greenery and beautiful houses in a perfect blend.
Community events are a staple of the neighbourhood, which includes health screening and talks, carnivals, chess competitions, home rehabilitation programmes and safe neighbourhood campaigns with the police, as well as environmental friendly activities such as tree planting campaigns, eco-hunt charity events and more.
The subtle bends at strategic spots and road sections that reduce speeding, brighter LED street lights, green space that separates walkways from motor lanes are all part of a carefully crafted design to integrate Crime Prevention through Environment Design (CPTED) concept features in the newer residential precincts.
Seremban 2 is located one km from the Seremban toll and five km from the newly opened Bandar Ainsdale toll, which allows for easy access through the North South Expressway, Elite and Lekas highways, as well as a toll-free road to KLIA and KLIA 2.
The development is in close proximity with numerous educational institutions including five national schools, two Chinese primary schools, Kolej Alpha and Kolej Negeri, as well as an international school which is currently under construction.
