Master Community Developer, Sunway Property has launched the residential component of its latest freehold development, Sunway Dora in high-growth Bayan Baru, Penang, achieving an 89% take-up rate in total for the non-bumi condominiums alongside of its 100% take-up rate for its non-bumi commercial shop units which have been launched earlier.

Sunway Dora, the developer’s Signature Product, is worth RM 128 million in gross development value and comprises 156 units of residential units and 22 units of commercial shops with generous parking spaces for residents and visitors.

“Homebuyers and investors see Sunway Dora’s strategic location and green living offering as a great investment that captures the best of Bayan Baru’s rise as Penang’s new economic hotspot with the proposed Bayan Lepas LRT track, Intel Corporation’s RM 30 billion expansion in the Bayan Lepas Industrial Park, as well as the rise of business services and outsourcing activities within the area as exemplified by the nearby Mayang Global Business Service Centre and Mahsuri Global Business Service Centre,” said Sunway Property Penang General Manager Fong Choon Fuoi.

He added that Bayan Baru is anticipated to accelerate its growth into a vibrant township as it is Penang’s industrial hotbed which will create jobs and bring in further FDIs.
