Analysis

This super-link terrace concept is not new in the market – even though it is the first of its kind in Desa ParkCity. It is sometimes being called as “bungalow link-house”. Besides The Mansions, other similar developments are the latest launch by Faber Group named Villa Prima and up-market Kenny Heights Estate. Villa Prima was launched in mid-February 2011 from RM3.7 million up to RM5.4 million. Meanwhile, Kenny Heights Estate is currently being priced from RM4.5 million up to RM6.2 million.

The design of The Mansions looks very modern and boasts its natural green surrounding. And the contemporary modern facilities featured have also portray that this is indeed a very exclusive residential.

However, with a hefty bungalow-price tag, The Mansions does not feel very exclusive due to a hundred over units built over the 19.6 acres. Not only that, the road seems narrow, hence the front views are blocked by the opposite neighbor. It also does not come with private green pocket for gardening – as everything belongs to the neighborhood. The Mansions is also considered one of the best landed house developments in Desa Parkcity.
