PETALING JAYA (Feb 6): Eastern & Oriental Bhd (E&O) has introduced Seri Embun, a new gated and low-density residential enclave in the City of Elmina, designed to prioritise privacy, spacious living, and a strong connection to nature.
According to E&O managing director Kok Tuck Cheong, modern homebuyers increasingly view wellness and sustainability as essential aspects of daily life rather than optional features. He noted that thoughtfully planned surroundings, shared spaces, and landscaped environments all play a role in shaping residents’ quality of life, alongside the design of the homes themselves. The project’s GreenRE Gold Provisional Certification reflects the developer’s focus on environmentally responsible and community-oriented planning.
Seri Embun occupies approximately 35.83 acres and will comprise 360 freehold three-storey superlink houses. Each unit is planned with five bedrooms and four bathrooms, with built-up areas ranging from about 2,982 to 3,339 square feet. The layouts are tailored to suit multigenerational households, a growing trend among Malaysian families seeking larger homes in well-planned townships.
Prospective purchasers can now visit the Seri Embun Gallery, where the developer is showcasing the architectural concepts, shared facilities, and wellness-focused design approach that will shape the future neighbourhood. The gallery also provides a preview of the clubhouse and communal areas, emphasising a lifestyle integrated with greenery and open spaces.
Positioned on elevated terrain and bordering a forest reserve of roughly 2,700 acres, the development incorporates green corridors and landscaping intended to enhance privacy and create a tranquil residential atmosphere. Sustainability elements include energy-efficient building features, provisions for solar adoption, and electric vehicle charging points, aligning with broader trends in environmentally conscious property development.
Market observers note that projects like Seri Embun highlight the ongoing diversification of property offerings across the Klang Valley. While residential communities continue to expand in growth corridors such as Elmina and Shah Alam, demand remains strong in other segments as well, particularly for industrial land in Selangor, factory space in Puchong, and industrial property in the Subang area, driven by logistics, manufacturing, and e-commerce activity. At the same time, businesses continue to seek strategically located commercial property in KL and modern office space in Bukit Jalil and surrounding districts, reflecting the region’s balanced growth across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors.
E&O indicated that its approach in Seri Embun draws on experience from earlier master-planned projects, including developments in Penang, where low-density planning and nature-focused design have been key selling points. The company aims to replicate that concept in the Klang Valley, offering homebuyers an alternative to higher-density urban living within a carefully planned environment.
