SPACIOUS homes and green surroundings will certainly go hand in hand at the freehold Aquamarine development with a gross development value (GDV) of RM160mil spread across 10.83 acres in Taman Putra Prima in Puchong.

Indeed, for starters, there will be a central seven-acre community park and beautifully landscaped green zones, nature’s magnificent splendour literally beckons at one’s doorstep in this private and serene haven for the family.

The practical charms of a well-designed residence will be a daily reality with its list of unique selling propositions that include contemporary designs and spacious layouts.

The typical two-storey layout encompasses a master bedroom large enough to accommodate a walk-in wardrobe while the corner units will be perfect for those with extended families by virtue of the fact that the spacious second floor bedroom will feature a lanai that can be converted into a second master bedroom.

Each two-storey unit will feature four plus one bedrooms and four bathrooms.

The three-storey layout with its grand master bedroom concept will occupy the entire floor with a private sitting area and covered balcony. Each three-storey unit will feature five plus one bedrooms and five bathrooms.

In essence, these units will pave the way for a clear separation of space that harmonise the private and family areas into a seamless and coherent design concept.

Developed by Plenitude Permai Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Plenitude Bhd, Phase 2C of Aquamarine that has just been launched recently has already seen a 35% take-up rate out of its total 150 units comprising two- and three-storey terrace houses.

Plenitude Bhd executive chairman  anticipates demand to be high for the corner units due to the flexibility afforded by its large bedroom and special lanai area on the second floor.

The units, designed according to a north-south orientation, will feature high glass windows to allow natural lighting in while sun-shading louvres will be featured in the corner units.

Spacious bedroom.

The three-storey units come with 12 ft high ceilings while the two-storey terrace houses feature 13 ft high ceilings. All bedrooms will have en-suite bathrooms fitted with solar hot water system and inverter air conditioner piping.

“Our target market is represented in the upgraders who may consider these landed freehold houses as their future retirement homes. Alternatively, they could also view the homes as their next generation or children’s dream home. These upgraders are mainly from the surrounding neighbourhoods who have long stayed in smaller scale houses or apartments/condominiums,” she says.

Not dismissing the fact that in recent years, a younger group of people has moved into Puchong due to work requirements in Putrajaya and Cyberjaya, she anticipates that these young families may consider purchasing the units at Aquamarine.

Envisioning that the development will be well-received by upgraders and owner occupiers, she says that community facilities with 50 ft wide internal roads and perimeter hedging, underground cabling and three-phase power supply as well as a single entry and exit point to Aquamarine will be other value-added features.

Priced from approximately RM370 per sq ft compared to the neighbourhood pricing of above RM400 per sq ft, she says affordability is key at the Aquamarine development.

The two-storey terrace units categorised as Type B, C and D with built-up areas starting from 2,456 sq ft with land sizes of 22 ft x 72 ft and 22 ft x 75 ft respectively will be priced from RM956,000 onwards.

The three-storey terrace units categorised as Type A have built-up areas starting from 3,426 sq ft with a land size measuring 22 ft by 75 ft. These units will be priced from RM1.215mil onwards.

Each unit will be able to accommodate two cars parked side-by-side at the large car porch area with an automatic gate.

Easy accessibility

The mature township is already equipped with ample commercial support and a ready network of comprehensive infrastructure. Surrounded by public amenities, such as shopping malls, hypermarkets, financial and educational institutions as well as medical centres, the upcoming LRT (light rail transit) station at Puchong Prima located 3 km away is anticipated to boost the value of the development. The LRT and bus transit points will also help ease traffic.
