SETIA Walk, which is SP Setia Bhd’s first showcase project to mark the company’s entry into the commercial retail sector, will transform Puchong through its revolutionary lifestyle experience and refreshing retail concept.
Positioned as a one-stop boutique lifestyle centre that appeals to the trend-conscious younger clientele, the integrated residential and commercial development comprises retail blocks, offices, an entertainment complex, service apartments and residential apartments.
SP Setia group managing director and chief executive officer Tan Sri Liew Kee Sin said the commercial precinct is a hybrid between conventional shop offices and a shopping mall.
Although the concept is regarded a novelty in the local market, it is highly popular in western countries, including the United States.
“Rather than settle for the typical row shop offices, we have transformed the project through a combination of imaginative architecture and creative landscaping into a destination place where people can live, learn, work and play,” Liew said, adding that the retail mix would be geared towards creating a hip and happening joint aimed at youngsters.
Phase one will comprise 85 blocks of four, six and seven storey of shop offices offering 170 retail units and 336 office units. The shop offices are priced between RM2.5mil and RM8.9mil a block.
Units on the ground and first floors will be operated as retail lots while the offices will occupy the upper floors.
The shop office blocks are all carefully designed and laid out to either face the Damansara Puchong Expressway (LDP) or the internal waterways, thus providing prime double frontage and high visibility for businesses.
Located on 20.8 acres in the matured township of Pusat Bandar Puchong, the project enjoys good frontage and visibility to the LDP and Jalan Wawasan, the township’s main thoroughfare.
