Majuperak unveils new housing project for first-time buyers, young families
KUALA LUMPUR: Majuperak Holdings Bhd, a subsidiary of Perak State Development Corporation (PKNPk), has launched a new residential development called Taman Tasik Ardea in Sungai Terap, Batu Gajah.
The project is being developed on land owned by Syarikat MajuPerak Bhd (SMB), another PKNPk subsidiary, as part of the state government's broader plan to improve access to quality housing for targeted communities.
With a gross development value (GDV) of RM141 million, the project comprises 601 homes to be built in three phases - 161 units in Phase 1, 264 units in Phase 2 and 176 units in Phase 3.
Spread across 46.13 hectares, Taman Tasik Ardea features single-storey terrace houses designed to cater to first-time buyers, young families, and those seeking a tranquil, nature-filled setting.
Prices range from RM90,000 for Rumah Perakku 1 to RM250,000 for Rumah Perakku 3, with unit sizes between 1,075 and 1,275 square feet offering 3 to 4 bedrooms. Selected units are also open to non-Bumiputera buyers.
Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad, who launched the project, reiterated the state government's commitment to fulfilling the housing aspirations of Perakians through the Flagship Prosperous Housing Programme, under the Perak Sejahtera 2030 development plan.
PKNPk chief executive Datuk Redza Rafiq Abdul Razak said the project is part of the state's broader strategy to maximise the use of its assets and leverage property development as a tool to enhance public welfare.
Redza, who also serves as executive chairman of Majuperak, added that Taman Tasik Ardea exemplifies a coordinated effort between government development policies and private sector participation.
"Under Majuperak, we are not just building houses – we are building a community that is resilient and high quality, with a focus on social integration, public amenities and environmental sustainability," he said.
