8 Rumah Berkembar untuk Dijual di Island Glades

In the 1960s, Island Glades was a plantation land located in Georgetown, Penang which slowly transformed into the residential neighbourhood that it now is. Located along Lorong Delima, this freehold residential development is one of the oldest developments on Penang Island and till this day, a popular one among the locals for its central location with several new developments coming up on its outskirts wherever there is land available.
