GuocoLand Malaysia launches new phase of semi-detached homes


Overwhelming response: Amberley 2 semi-detached parkhomes

The Emerald West neighbourhood promises to add a new dimension in the fast growing and established Rawang with this weekend’s launch of Amberley 2 semi-detached parkhomes.

Amberley 2, developed by GuocoLand Malaysia, the property arm of the Hong Leong Group, offers an enticing proposition to home owners wishing to enhance their lifestyles and upgrade from their existing link houses.

The new phase of 40’ x 80’ two-storey semi-D parkhomes comes barely a month after the overwhelming response of its first phase launch in October with a take-up rate of 80 per cent within two weeks of its unveiling.

GuocoLand Malaysia will launch the new parkhomes at the Amberley 2 Fiesta at the Emerald Sales Gallery on Nov 27-28 (8am to 10pm). Exciting activities planned for the weekend include hot air balloon rides, fireworks display, and a live concert by local recording artistes.

“Amberley 2 reaffirms GuocoLand Malaysia’s going forward efforts to introducing homes that exceed customers’ expectations and making the well-planned Emerald a township of choice,” said GuocoLand (Malaysia) Bhd Managing Director Yeow Wai Siaw.

“We have more exciting projects in the pipeline and we will leverage on GuocoLand Malaysia’s excellent track record and our reputation in the marketplace to enhance the appeal of Emerald.”


Amberley 2 offers high ceilings and generous window openings for better ventilation and abundant light.

Yeow said many homeowners and investors had benefited from the maturity and popularity of the Emerald neighbourhood, adding its properties, including the April launched and sold out Ebony link homes had appreciated by over 20 per cent this year.

The freehold 1,000-acre site, he added, is a fast growing self-contained township with an approved Chinese school currently under construction and a planned hypermarket.

Priced from RM618,800, the thoughtfully-designed Amberley 2 offers three variants with four bedrooms (en-suite bathrooms for all first floor rooms), open courtyard, high ceilings and generous window openings for better ventilation and abundant light, separate laundry area and covered yard.

The Fiesta will offer exclusive deals, including attractive home financing schemes and rebates for confirmed bookings during the weekend.

Emerald West is part of the Emerald township, a joint-venture project between GuocoLand Malaysia and Hong Bee Land Sdn Bhd, with the former as project manager. Over 1,400 houses, including linked and cluster homes, semi-detached and premium bungalows have been completed and handed over since the township was launched in 2001.

Apart from excellent infrastructure, the township enjoys good accessibility to Kuala Lumpur and surrounding areas via the North-South Highway, New Klang Valley Expressway and the Guthrie Corridor Expressway.

Emerald is located within easy reach from Rawang town and its commercial hub, just 20 minutes drive from the Jalan Duta toll. As an established town, Rawang has all the essential amenities including banks, post-office, restaurants, hypermarkets, fresh produce market and a KTM Komuter station.
