Residential developments, close to the bustle of large cities, are increasingly becoming a popular lifestyle option. While there are many reasons for this trend, the benefits of low-density living, in secure and serene surroundings, speak for themselves.
At Damansara Idaman, a new development by TA Properties, the concept was to create a model residential area integrating resort-style living with the natural environment and existing contours of the land, says Rabindran Thaver, chief executive officer of TA Properties.
"The development is dedicated to preserving the natural beauty of the area," he says. "Each bungalow is a fully-secured homestead, surrounded by tall, tree-lined walk paths and water features. The landscape is specially crafted to create a natural and comfortable tropical living environment."
The gated, low-density and high-security community has only 136 freehold bungalows built on 25 hectares. The expected number of residents is projected at fewer than 30 people per hectare. The total built-up area of the homes ranges from 505m2 to 569m2. To accentuate the peace and seclusion of the development, half of the available land is devoted to landscaped parks, roads and lake.
Each of the four stages of the development features a bungalow with a different design.
"Interiors combine the elements of wood, nature and water, blending in with the serene surroundings. In tandem with its exclusive image, Damansara Idaman comes with extensive security systems to provide a safe living environment," says Thaver.
Located next to the Tropicana Golf and Country Club in Damansara, the enclave is close to numerous shopping and entertainment centres, business and commercial centres, schools, sports facilities and transportation.
