BUKIT MERTAJAM: Master community developer Sunway Property has officially launched Serene Villas, the latest addition to the thriving Sunway Wellesley master-planned community.
The GreenRE-certified townhome development combines sustainable designs with exclusive clubhouse facilities, thoughtfully crafted for multigenerational living in Bukit Mertajam, one of Penang’s most sought-after areas. The launch also marked the grand opening of its newly unveiled show units.
Spanning 9.03 acres with a gross development value (GDV) of RM150mil, Serene Villas introduces 210 thoughtfully designed townhomes that seamlessly blend modern architecture with sustainable living in an exceptional landed living experience. As part of the 86-acre Sunway Wellesley master-planned community, with a total GDV of RM1bil, the launch builds on the sell-out success of earlier phases, including Sunway Wellesley’s Precincts 1 and 2, Uptown 2 (62 shop office units) and Garden Villas (60 semi-detached homes and 154 townhouses).
"Serene Villas reflects our vision as a master community developer to create sustainable, vibrant communities that enhance the quality of life," said Sunway Property central and northern regions chief executive officer Chong Sau Min. "With GreenRE certification, energy-efficient designs, and thoughtfully planned amenities, Serene Villas offers families and individuals a safe, connected, and sustainable living environment. Its strategic location and value-added facilities make it a compelling choice for homeowners and investors alike, promising strong potential for capital appreciation in this thriving area."
Guided by Sunway Property’s proprietary Sunway Design and Development Architecture (SDDA), Serene Villas embodies the four core pillars of sustainability, innovation, health and wellness as well as lifestyle and new experiences.
GreenRE certification provides homeowners numerous benefits, including lower energy and water bills, improved indoor air quality through natural lighting and ventilation and a reduced carbon footprint—contributing to a greener and more sustainable future. Designed for durability, these homes also offer maximum comfort and long-term energy savings.
The residents' clubhouse houses the swimming pool and gym.
At the heart of the development is a thoughtfully designed clubhouse featuring a swimming pool and an elevated gym with views of the pool, creating a refreshing and enjoyable experience for residents. The clubhouse is surrounded by lush outdoor spaces, including linear gardens, a gathering plaza, green pavilions, soothing gardens, jogging trails, outdoor fitness zones and a multi-purpose court for basketball and pickleball—offering the perfect balance of fitness, relaxation, and community engagement.
The innovatively designed 1.5-storey townhomes are crafted to support multigenerational living, featuring flexible layouts that cater to families or close friends who value proximity and privacy. Each home is equipped with EV charger-ready infrastructure and parking for up to four vehicles.
The overall Serene Villas development prioritizes safety and modern living with comprehensive security features, including 7-foot perimeter fencing, CCTV surveillance, and 40-foot-wide internal roads with pedestrian walkways. Additionally, the development is equipped with broadband-ready infrastructure, concealed drainage systems, and underground cabling, delivering a clean and streamlined aesthetic throughout the community.
Serene Villas offers seamless connectivity to key transportation networks, including the proposed Raja Uda-Bukit Mertajam LRT line, ETS Train Station, Butterworth-Kulim Expressway, and Penang Bridge. With Bukit Mertajam Town Centre just 0.5 km away and Bandar Sunway Seberang Jaya 9.5 km away, the development is ideally positioned for professionals and families seeking unparalleled convenience and accessibility.
Residents of Serene Villas enjoy proximity to a wide range of amenities, including vibrant retail hubs such as Sunway Carnival Mall and top-tier healthcare facilities like Sunway Medical Centre Penang. The area is also home to renowned educational institutions such as Jit Sin Independent High School, SMK Convent, and KPJ International College of Nursing & Health Sciences, catering to the needs of families. For recreation, residents can explore nearby attractions like DO Hill Recreational Park and the SPT Sports and Recreational Complex, offering diverse options for leisure and fitness.
