Klassik Tropika Sdn Bhd, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Mah Sing Group Berhad has acquired 3.38 acres of freehold land along Pykett
Avenue off Jalan Burma, Penang for RM38.65 million. A high end condominium with
an estimated gross development value of RM280 million is planned for the new
acquisition.
Based on preliminary plans, the condominium will offer
units of 1,400 sq ft, 1,800 sq ft and 2,500 sq ft and registration of interest
for the project is expected to start soon.
Mah Sing Group Berhad group managing director and
group chief executive Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Leong Hoy Kum said, “The location of
the land is perfect for an up market residential project, and we will develop a
beautiful condominium to capitalize on the sea view on the Northeast. There is
also a scenic view of mountains at the Southwest direction. While just outside
Georgetown’s heritage site, it still enjoys a good view of the bustling town.”
According to the press release, it said that the acquisition
is strategic as it allows the group to tap on the success and spillover demand
of Mah Sing’s Residence@Southbay project in Batu Maung which launched phases
are 90 percent sold.
