10 Damansara Heights | Bukit Ledang, Damansara



The idea behind 10 Damansara Heights is to group eight bungalows and two penthouses into a cosy yet esteemed ‘hamlet’. Hence the development’s name and its noble purpose of creating real living spaces that function as a sanctuary, retreat and playground, an abode that selected homeowners can truly call ‘home’. The 3-storey bungalows each feature built-up areas from 4,712 sqft to 4,842 sqft, with 5+1 rooms each as well as 6 bathrooms and a powder room thoughtfully included. A built-in alarm system has panic buttons located in the master bedroom, dry kitchen and lobby for enhanced security.




In addition, Bina Warehouse kitted out the bathrooms with Hansgrohe and Duravit bathroom fittings and sanitaryware, and the kitchen with Warendorf designs. Undoubtedly, the piece de resistance of this impressive development is its locale – it sits majestically in the Damansara Heights area just off Taman Duta at Jalan Jelutong, a prime real estate location that can boast of high-valued properties and a rich history of being home to the privileged or figures of importance. |
