Setia Eco Glades' Jewels of Grasmere offers a touch of heritage
THINK rustic English dwellings amid lakes, forests and mountains and England's Lake District comes to mind. This picture-perfect view is recreated inside the Setia Eco Glades collection.
S P Setia Group Bhd’s latest parcel of homes is set within manmade islands called the “Jewels of Grasmere” – named after a village and tourist destination in the Lake District.
This masterpiece of architecture is painted by colourful flora and wild fauna, with chirping birds and streaky butterflies populating the lakeside.
Each homebuyer is offered a terraced home that has an essence of heritage displayed in its stone walls.
Covering 12.48 acres, “Jewels of Grasmere” offers 117 freehold linked villas of between 2,118 sq ft and 2,470 sq ft. This parcel is split into two designs dubbed Greendale (24' x 80') and Langdale (22' x 80').
Each Greendale home comes with three spacious rooms, five bathrooms and a 2ft wide frontage.
Unique to the homes within this parcel is the 11ft high ceilings in the living area as well as having the option of an extra guest room on the ground floor.
Residents of the “Jewels of Grasmere” are afforded views of vast gardens or lake that includes a nostalgic water wheel.
Accessible to residents by way of a pedestrian bridge is The Bund where my they will find a stretch of sandy beach.
And within 100m is the Hammock Clubhouse as well as the township's neighbourhood commercial hub.
The clubhouse is a 20,000-sq-ft structure built on 0.93-acre plinth of land and offers an array of condo-like facilities including a lap pool, jacuzzi, playground, BBQ pits, an outdoor pool deck, a multipurpose hall, lobby, coffee lounge and gym.
The clubhouse also has a dance or yoga room, meeting room, changing rooms, a management office, kid’s room, and a prayer room.
Those who choose to call Setia Eco Glades home can be assured of uninterrupted slumber at night because residences are guarded by the Agilfence Security System, which is implemented at Singapore's Changi Airport.
Getting to Setia Eco Glades is a breeze; the township holds an interchange with a direct connection to the Putrajaya Link and onto the Maju Expressway & Elite highway.
