D'Alpinia site photos

Crazy! Totally crazy...I went for D'Alpinia launching on Saturday around 2pm. There are total of 4 tiers of property for sale. Hap Seng Land only sell tier 1 to tier 3 on Saturday which total up of 107 units of terrace homes and semi-d. At the time of viewing, total of 13 units left for sale. The price for terrace homes is from RM 438,888 onwards while RM510k onwards for the semi-d. And by the time I left at around 4pm, only 9 units left.

Tier 4 will be sold only on Sunday as they would like to have some good units left for sale on the 2nd day of launch. Approximately 23 units of terrace homes and 24 units of semi-d in tier4 for sale on Sunday. You can refer to the following photo.

So here is the photos at the site. This is the entrance.

The guard house.

Terrace homes.

Semi-D.

This is the back of the semi-d. It is actually linked semi-d.

Some random pictures of the interior.

The street on slope. These photos were taken two weeks before the lauching.

Playground.

And did i mentioned that there will be two Mercedes Benz B-class to be won by the buyers? It will be good for the buyers as winning chances would be high at approximately 1:80.

Btw, this whole project is surrounded by IOI property. Can this place turn out to be the next Bandar Puteri? IOI has open registration for their future development there called 18 Sierra with 22x75 terrace homes. So do some research if you would like a piece of property at this new growth area.

Desa Idaman, Puchong Prima

Some time about two years ago, I remember I saw the road show for Desa Idaman and find it pretty interesting. They have this water theme park concept as their main facility in Desa Idaman. It's like Tiara Beach Resort in Port Dickson except that this is residential and not service apartments.

Thought interesting, I have doubts on projects like that. They are not easy to build and to maintain especially with the medium range apartments. However, one weekend I had the urge to pay this place a visit and see their showroom on site.

See the photos to believe, I was quite amazed with the outcome.

The built is definitely commendable. I've not seen many construction to turn out with so neat lines and the cement surface everywhere is smooth. Their Q&A is worth a thousand praise.

From the chart I saw, they have approximately 25% more not sold! Unfortunately, as you would expect, the not so good units are left and they are on the higher floors and there's no lift service here. Ahaa, there's NO lift servicing Desa Idaman's 5 story apartments.

That's the only turn off. Other than that, it is quite a decent residence for family which they can assure their kids will have great weekend even at home. :)

IOI Boulevard is now OPEN

So far my updates is always around Puchong area. It's only because I stay near here and I get to observe more of the growth around this area. Anyway, let's get back to the topic.

This morning when I drove on LDP along Puchong, I saw this big banner hanging over the IOI Boulevard building that shows it is now open with some well known F&B outlets. Too bad I didnt have my camera with me just now. However, among few that I remember are Umai-Ya, Otak-Otak place, Pappa Rich and Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa.

The banner captured my attention and so I make a stop over to check out the place. So far only Otak-otak place is open for business, the rest are still under renovation. Other than the F&B mentioned above, there's a korean restaurant and another Japanese fusion restaurant there. I also saw a salon and an Optical shop is already open for business.

Last but not least, there's bazaar @ flea market going on in that area. Today is their first day operating and it will be going on every weekend. There's already few stall setup and I foresee it will be packed with stalls soon, perhaps in few more weeks.

I'm glad that there's more things coming up around Puchong area and it seems like Puchong will be the next PJ.

Up next I'll be posting on Desa Idaman site progress. Check in again tomorrow for the updates. :)

Lake Edge, Puchong

Many people work their whole life to pay for two things – car and house. To many, buying a house is one of the biggest decisions made in a lifetime. It is a commitment that will tie you down and take your freedom away and yet it is something that many are willing to do, all because they want a house to be called a Home.

Last week, I had an opportunity to take a walk in Lake Edge, Puchong. For those that are not familiar with Lake Edge, it is a guarded and gated concept development by YTL with large landscape area and a private club house for the residents. Amidst the hustle and bustle of Puchong, this place is like a resort once you step into Lake Edge. First impression in mind is that “No way a place like this exists just right behind Tesco, Puchong”. See below map for Lake Edge location. Click on image to enlarge.

Here is the satellite snapshot of Lake Edge area. There is a private lake within Lake Edge.

I will share with you some of the scene that I captured during the evening walk. A picture is worth a thousand words. Thus, I’ll do less of the writing from here onwards. Enjoy!

This is the back of a typical courtyard homes.

Linear park, open space in between Parkville homes – unique collection of 8 semi-detached and 8 bungalow homes.

Can you feel the quality of life that the residents here take pleasure in?

They have a private lake too. And there is big open space too for recreation just by the lake.

And the playground….

Now at the clubhouse…

Tennis court & basketball court

Infinity pool

The gym

This is Waterville - the latest property in Lake Edge. Btw, I was told that all 50 units have been sold out. Price is from RM 1.6M. This proves that there are demand for quality home in Puchong.

After my walk in Lake Edge, I start to understand why the owners/residents here have a saying - You need to be here to experience and feel the quality of living in Lake Edge. Oh…many of the owners here upgrade within Lake Edge. Eg. From linked house to semi-d/bungalow.

I hope thru my posts, many who could not enter Lake Edge (yes, they have tight security) will have the opportunity to have an insight into Lake Edge living. Hence, I totally agree that Lake Edge is truly a home sweet home in the heart of Puchong for the lucky few.
