Y CANTONMENTS is the new housing development which comprises 20 exclusive units of town villas located at Cantonment Road.
Each town villa contains five bedrooms, private garden, private glass lifts and individual plunge pool.
These classy villas are designed by Malaysian architect Datuk Dr Ken Yeang.
Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng who was at the launch of the show unit on Oct 10 said: “Penang is well on its way to be one of the most liveable cities in Malaysia but we want to be one of the most liveable cities in Asia. We are the first green state in Malaysia with the first no free plastic bags, ban on polystyrene boxes and we have the highest recycling rate in Malaysia at 32%.”
These exclusive villas are Green Building Index (GBI) grade rated as they are bioclimatic or climate responsive, use low energy, have natural daylight and passive solar shading, rainwater harvesting and water saving features.
Currently there are only 12 units left for sale.
Pulau Tikus assemblymember Yap Soo Huey, who was also present, said continuous efforts by her office and the state government are being made to strengthen the workability in the area so that people will continue to enjoy their stay in Penang.} else {
