Suntrack Development Sdn Bhd has unveiled its latest residential project, Tuai Residence @ Setia Alam, Selangor, and prices start from RM490,000, or RMRM450 per square ft.
The condominium project has a total of 330 units, with a gross development value of RM194 million.
Suntrack chief executive officer, James KK Tan said the low-density development is expected to be completed in 2023.
Tan said the units, ranging from 1,109 square ft to 1,927 square ft are affordably priced for young families and the elderly.
He said they are designed with a strong emphasis on safety for children and the elderly, as well as accessibility and independent living for all ages and abilities.
"The Covid-19 pandemic has brought some basic, yet crucial issues to light. For example, we all now know how it feels to be isolated and restricted to the confines of our home. This is often the fate suffered by seniors and the differently-abled in our community, due to limitations in the access to facilities as well as a lack of communal spaces," Tan said in a statement.
Tan said after almost three years of research into limitations inaccessibility at homes, Tuai Residence was crafted with great attention to detail for an inclusive environment and is one of the rare developments in the country with a total application of Universal Design (UD).
He said specific bedrooms and toilets within each condominium unit are designed with spaces large enough to cater for wheelchair turning radius.
Other UD features include 900mm wide clear doorways in common areas and designated doorways inside units, ramps to access carparks, large electrical switches at 1200mm height, and tac tiles on floors in common corridors.
Tan said the project aims to promote community building and encourage inter-generational friendships between young and old residents.
The condominium facilities coupled with a clubhouse aim to encourage communal activities such as line dancing, tai chi, communal cooking, group yoga, and community gardening.
