The Setia Eco Templer development projects unique home designs, backed by natural landscapes REVIEW Cosy Amidst Nature By Rakesh Kumar 2019 has been kind to SP Setia Bhd, as even by the third quarter, the property giant managed to secure a majestic sales of RM3.07 Billion. There’s nothing stopping them as they push forward with wide variety of properties ready for picking in the highly demanding market, as more and more Malaysians are consciously moving into acquiring property as not only as their home, but as guaranteed investment. The company is braving forward amidst the murky economic waters with its latest phase of 194 acres Setia Eco Templer, with the total GDV worth RM 2 Billion, expected to be completed in five years’ time. Setia Eco Templer The company’s Setia Eco Templer development is in itself a state-of-the-art housing project that projects unique home designs, backed by natural landscapes. The name of this development is significant as it was inspired by Sir Gerald Templer’s journey to the then Malaya early last century which certainly triggered by his own nostalgic pining for the pristine gardens of an English home coupled with the exotic influences of the Malay Archipelago, sprinkled heavily with the unique cultural diversity of the Peranakan Era and strong Balinese elements. Located at the expanse of green amidst the majestic Bukit Takun, surrounded by the Templer Park and Kanching rainforest reserves, home to various flora, fauna that are uniquely Malaysian. This development mainly offers bungalows, semi- detached, and link villa; with The Grove commercial project offering two and three storey shop offices and the state’s Rumah Selangorku. Needless to say, nature is intertwined with the development with creeks, pristine flower gardens, ponds offering a bird heaven among others.

Essex Gardens The noted developer has already launched its Phase 1(a), Essex Gardens in June 2016, and phase 1(c) The Grove two-three storey shop offices was launched in 2017. In fact, Essex Gardens, consisting of 234 bungalows, semi-detached homes and link villas, had already been handed over in June 2019.

The standout feature that would be the main pulling factor is the English homes amidst English themed pocket parks and landscaped gardens. As of now, the Essex Gardens still have limited units available up for grabs considering that most have already been sold out, with the remaining selling fast.
