WHILE there are many aspects to take into account before deciding to call a place home, Sime Darby Property ensures that it stays at the top of minds with its competence in providing the right products at the right location and price point.
These are only a few of the numerous factors that make the company stand out from the competition; in fact, the company was recently recognised as the world’s best with gold and silver wins at the prestigious 2023 FIABCI World Prix d’Excellence Awards in Florida, United States.
With over five decades of experience, Sime Darby Property has established itself as an outstanding builder of sustainable communities and thriving townships, one of which is Putra Heights.
Since its introduction in 1999, Putra Heights in Selangor has attracted urban dwellers looking for the best of both worlds – a peaceful, lush, self-contained residential area with excellent connectivity to the heart of the city.
This serene, integrated township is nestled at the foothills of Bukit Cermin in the south of Subang Jaya, and occupies a vast 715 hectares of freehold land.
The Glades Plaza is home to a variety of hip cafes and well-known chains including Starbucks.
Throughout the years, this bourgeoning property – dotted with residential homes, expansive parks and retail plazas, all enveloped by verdant greenery – has earned a reputation as one of the most livable, well-developed neighbourhoods in the Klang Valley and for good reasons.
Location is everything
A big pull factor at Putra Heights is its secluded yet central location, which offers a peaceful retreat from the bustle of the city while maintaining excellent connectivity for its residents.
The township is easily accessible via the North–South Expressway Central Link (Elite), Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP), New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) and the Shah Alam Expressway (Kesas).
The convenience of public transport hubs around Putra Heights further enhances its appeal to urbanites. There are three LRT stations at Putra Heights that are all within walking distance of residential areas.
The Putra Heights LRT station is the southern terminus for the Sri Petaling Line and Kelana Jaya Line.
Families with growing children can find solace as top-notch national, vernacular and international schools as well as world-renowned educational institutions are just a stone’s throw away.
Healthcare is also a top priority in this self-sufficient sanctuary, where some of Malaysia’s most reputable medical centres sit within close proximity to the township.
The Buzzar Ria Weekends is a perfect way to unwind and enjoy fun-filled activities with the whole family.
When it comes to retail therapy and gastronomical delights, Putra Heights is fringed by some of the Klang Valley’s most popular shopping malls, hypermarkets and dining outlets.
Green spaces abound
Putra Heights’ charm, however, lies in its lush landscape punctuated by wide, spacious tree-lined streets, breathtaking water features and beautiful, big parks that offer residents a sense of serenity. Leading that list of green spaces is the Linear Park, known to many as Taman Rekreasi Putra Heights.
The beautifully- manicured 7-acre park boasts a basketball court, a futsal court, a cycling and jogging track as well as a 600sqm play area where young children can enjoy swings, slides and monkey bars.
Putra Heights Community Park, another 7.6-acre green space, is slated to be completed towards the end of 2023.
These parks, as well as the Putra Heights mosque, are an integral part of the Putra Heights spine – a hub that fosters gatherings and bonding within the township community.
Scaling new heights
At the heart of it is The Glades Plaza, which sits just beside the 56-acre enclave of The Glades – Putra Heights’ low-density, ultralux gated and guarded community.
This sleek, three-storey commercial retail complex houses trendy, al-fresco cafes and familiar favourites including Starbucks and Australian-inspired eatery Jibby & Co which recently opened this month.
The Glades Plaza also plays host to the popular Buzzar Ria Weekends – where the community can indulge in arts and crafts, sample delectable local offerings, and shop for unique artisanal products, all while enjoying live music.
Current projects at Putra Heights are the Serasi Residences affordable serviced apartments, strategically located within Putra Heights Sentral, Sime Darby Property’s latest Transit Oriented Development and The Serenade at The Glades, the final low-density condominium project there.
