Description
Casuarina Centre: A Freehold Commercial Hub in the Heart of Taman Scientex, Pasir Gudang
Casuarina Centre is a freehold shop development strategically located within the mature and self-sufficient township of Taman Scientex in Pasir Gudang, Johor. Developed by the renowned Scientex Berhad, this commercial precinct is designed to cater to the thriving community of one of Johor's most established residential and industrial areas. Casuarina Centre is part of the larger Taman Scientex Pasir Gudang development, which was Scientex's first venture into property development, starting in 1995. The larger township is a significant integrated development spanning over 1,100 acres and is planned to house over 13,000 residential and 400 commercial properties upon completion.
Project Details and Concept
Casuarina Centre comprises a total of 25 commercial shop units. In a 2008 report, this phase was detailed as consisting of 1 and 2-storey shops. It is part of the broader 'Casuarina' precinct which also includes 813 terrace houses, indicating a ready catchment of customers for businesses operating within the centre. The development benefits from Scientex's pioneering use of the Industrialized Building System (IBS), which focuses on construction efficiency and quality.
Strategic Location and Connectivity
Located in Pasir Gudang, a major industrial hub with proximity to Johor Port, Taman Scientex benefits from excellent connectivity. The township is easily accessible via major arteries such as the Pasir Gudang Highway and Jalan Persiaran Scientex.
