Taman Putra Impiana: Putra Homes 2
This project is the second phase of Taman Putra Impiana which was launched earlier last year. While that pilot phase, called Putra Homes 1, is nearing completion of the construction, they have just launched the next phase within the same development area. The land is quite big in this development, about 75 acres in all. In the master plan, there an area allocated for commercial lots near the entrance to Taman Putra Impiana, but a check on site show no works yet. The sales people also were not able to tell us when the master plan would be realized, now that the first phase is almost complete.
You are advised to read the review of the earlier phase here as we would be repeating much that has been touched on there.
This project is one the many that have been developed on both sides of the road leading to Taman Mas Sepang, off the LDP. Some of the others here that have come up in the past 2 years are:
Calisa Residences, Taman Mas Sepang
Taman Puchong Tekali
Taman Tasik Puchong
Alam Idaman
Lake Vista @ Taman Tasik Prima Puchong
Taman Putra Prima
So with so much competition what has the developer done to stand above the rest? They haven’t changed much to the original design, unfortunately. So for those of you that felt the original first phase looked dated, this impression would be even more pronounced when you first view the second phase, especially in the light of the change in prevailing design trends seen in more contemporary homes of late.
The other day some friends of our were looking for a home (whether new or second-hand) in this area, preferably a linkhome and not an apartment. Their budget was up to RM230k, but they failed to find any in that range. It was then obvious to us that at that price you’d be hard pressed to find a new home - here, the price starts from RM260k onwards, plus you need two wait at least 2 years for it before you can move in.
Granted, this is a second phase, and naturally it is common for the developer to increase the price from the earlier phase (which retailed at RM250k upwards). But it is hard for us to justify the price, considering that it is leasehold, and the finishes and facade do not reflect the current trends.
The homes are on a rectangular footprint set on a 20′x75′ plot. There are 3+1 rooms and three baths.
