Total Units: 138
Indicative Price: RM1,200 psf onwards
Developer : Crescent Consortium Sdn Bhd. (SDB Properties)
Interesting. Anybody knows what is the indicative price? So far for semi-furnished service suites, the benchmark is set by Sunrise@Gurney i think, ~900psf. Lets see if SDB is going to beat that.
Heard is around RM1000 psf…but is a fully furnished condo
the residential component of this project must never be approved by the authorities…the beach belongs to the ppl & must be made accessible…beachfront residential development must never be allowed in batu ferringhi to avoid being another blunder like tanjong bungah.
@Matt
That is really a good one. I intend to grasp 3 units.
The land sits in the BATU FERINGGHI TOURISM ZONE. The development is more akin to being a SOHO type but with residential like facilities. Whereas the OSC PORTAL describes the development as comprising a commercial complex and some office blocks including carpark and public facilities.
This will be a most undesirable precedent for BATU FERINGGHI if this so-called commercial development might end up as a residential in an established TOURISM ZONE.
LETS KEEP THINGS THE WAY THEY ARE AND STEER AWAY FROM ACTS FOR THE SHEER DESIRE TO PROFIT AT THE COST OF THE ISLAND’S INTEGRITY AND THE PEOPLES’ RIGHTS.
1200 rm psf is announced. will u still grab 3 units bullish man?
or buy the ones near around it at half the cost.
3 units where got enough, atleast 5 units man, hope it will appreciate to 1.5k per sq ft soon!

i heard this BTS sudah convert to biz / hotel suites? betul kar?
means 85%-90% financing throughout pun boleh.. or prolly like hotel suites, commercial, since maya hotel ada boleh manage.. how?
Penang Hill is no where near….
I live in Eden Seaview (on the seaside so overlook this new development which will change my view) on 14th floor. The mosque is very close to these prestigious suites and the “call to prayer” may disturb some people living in them.
Hi, I am teh, penang , here
I have TWO (2) Units for sales.

Nice project but the area it will be located in is pretty much the butth-le of Batu Ferringhi. Directly in front is what the locals in batu Ferringhi call, “The Cemetery of old jetskis”. Abandones jetskis and boats are piled up there. Not to mention there are tons of shantys around..
I would think twice about buying in that location
The marketing agent says it takes 4 years to complete??? And the asking price is 1400psf.
No point build residence near beach cos pg beach not nice & sea full of jellyfish, choose opposite side cos got streams, waterfalls, hills & lots of trees, so peaceful & quiet.
Risk of tsunami too ….once it hits again…bye bye
After visiting By The Sea, I found myself buying Ferringhi Residence immediately in Feb this year. Half price for same size with a better living environment and a much nicer interior finish, with Mah Sing even more luxury developer compared to SDB. All Mah Sing stuff are expensive in KL and very high end.
I like Moonlight bay, Island Resort and maybe Bayu Ferringhi too, but certainly By The Sea is worst of all newer developments in the area. And even 2-3 times more expensive psf compared to the rest of the developments above.
@FR buyer
You are comparing beachfront with sea view by SDB to the rest? There is no comparison. SDB is a boutique developer like E&O and YTL. Their projects are only meant for those that can pay the premium.
Ivorys workmanship is so bad. Mah sing FR surrounded by low cost flats and has no view. Higher density. Bayu Ferringhi is worth looking into.
@lol
I agree sub is a good niche developer. BTS will set the benchmark for all the condos in BF.
FR will do better than bayu because not many people fancy living next to the Sri sayang antenna.

Great project and here’s a video review that we did on this development: http://youtu.be/8IUH1BOoQUw
OC in March
went to have a look at the site and boy, at that price and location , there are much better buys like Bayu Ferringhi..yes, the concept may be different but for luxurious living, Bayu F wins hands down..
its just adjoining the mosque, the beach is nothing to shout about, and the surrounding is rather run down at best..however, the buyers may be seeing something am not I reckon..
@jess

Could you please name a few locations? I am looking in Penang, and the image that you types is exactly what i’d be looking for!
@Ryan Harb
” streams, waterfalls, hills & lots of trees, so peaceful & quiet.” will be gone very soon as the state gov is planning to build expressway there. Sorry to disappoint you.
