Waterfront ‘city’ of many choices


Mah Sing Group’s iconic development, Southbay City in Batu Maung, Penang, combines the best of living, working, entertainment and leisure in one vibrant township of the future.

The RM2.09bil mega project sits on a prime location easily accessible via the Sultan Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah Bridge, Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway and Penang Bridge.

The integrated undertaking, which is currently being completed in phases, was earlier voted winner at the Cityscape Asia Real Estate Awards 2010 under the Best Waterfront Development (Future) category.

Among the components in its overall masterplan is Southbay City itself, which will have retail outlets, shorefront restaurants, luxurious residential suites, offices, hotel and resort, along with other tourist and recreational attractions.

Within it is Southbay Plaza, a mixed development of 206 residential suites housed in a pair of majestic 31 and 32-storey towers, and 47 retail outlets.

The commercial floors will have an ideal mixture of brands in one to three-storey units. Limited units are still available in a variety of layouts with key features like column-free interiors, 26ft (7.9m)-wide frontages and 12ft (3.6m) walkways.

Meanwhile, the waterfront residences boast high ceilings and have layouts ranging from two to 3+1 bedrooms.

To maximise privacy, each floor will have only five or six units.

Resort-inspired facilities and green features include an infinity pool, viewing deck, gymnasium, library and lush gardens.

Legenda@Southbay offers luxurious three and four-storey resort bungalows in a nearby gated and guarded precinct close to the sea and cushioned by greens.

There are 76 residences with built-ups between 6,460sq ft and 7,300sq ft, built on land sized from 7,500sq ft.

They are arranged in two distinct rows ending in cul-de-sacs.

Each home comes with six en suite bedrooms, private lift, home automation system, solar hot water, water filtration and rainwater harvesting systems, personal pool with spacious deck, multiple-decked balconies and outdoor terrace.

A Residents Clubhouse with infinity and wading pools, gymnasium, community hall and relaxation lounge will be a popular gathering spot.

Legenda was awarded the coveted Asia Pacific Residential Property Awards (in association with Bloomberg TV) for ‘Malaysia’s Best Architecture’.

Phase 2 has been completed with limited units available.

The Loft@Southbay is touted as a private gateway to an enchanting sea. There will be 156 luxurious serviced suites split evenly between two 30-storey tower blocks, or three units per floor. Only limited numbers are still available.

There are three options with built-ups ranging from 1,378sq ft to 1,680sq ft, with open plan layouts and high ceilings for an airy interior. Large windows will open to panoramic views of the waterfront.

Approximately 2.5 acres (1.01ha) is dedicated to leisure and recreational decks, with unique features being the multi-layered swimming pool of The Cascade, and a sky bridge connecting a lounge and gym on Level 15.

Another top-notch development by Mah Sing Group is the ultra luxurious resort-themed Ferringhi Residence, spanning 61.03 acres (24ha) in Batu Ferringhi.

Phase 1, consisting of 20 blocks of five-storey Condo Villas with 200 units, has been completed with OC expected soon, while Phase 2 (Ferringhi Residence 2) offers 632 freehold resort condo units.

Of the total, 602 units are in two blocks 10 and 32 storeys high and have built-ups of 1,197sq ft to 1,534sq ft, with 2+1 or 3+1 bedrooms (two en suite bathrooms).

The remaining 30 are in a four-storey block, and have living spaces of 1,438sq ft to 2,875sq ft.
