To minimise heat, all units have a north or south orientation, while wide usage of glass windows throughout the duplexes maximise the inflow of natural light and provides good ventilation. 280 Park Homes is also GBI (Green Building Index) compliant, as it incorporates sustainable and green-living features.
With 7 acres dedicated for a recreational deck and green landscaping, facilities at 280 Park Homes are lavish and extensive. For example, there’s a 30,000 sq ft double-storey clubhouse with gymnasium, wellness centre, squash courts, games and function rooms, barbeque area, and rooftop garden.
Other facilities include tennis courts, swimming pool, children’s pool and playground, hydro gymnasium, mini driving range, and a 10-meter high lookout tower complete with water slides akin to those found in a water theme park! The common compound is also landscaped with lush greenery and water features.

Location
280 Park Homes is located in Taman Puchong Prima, an area developed by Mitrajaya Group. It is primarily a residential area that is close to a vast lake, Tasik Prima. The vicinity is peaceful and quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of the main commercial areas of Puchong. The surrounding areas of 280 Park Homes is currently not heavily developed. As such, there are still pockets of untouched greenery in the vicinity.
The commercial districts of Bandar Puteri and Bandar Puchong Jaya are 7km and 10km away respectively, while exits to the highways such as the Lebuhraya Damansara-Puchong (LDP) will require passing through the neighbouring housing areas. Nevertheless, residents are able to get basic necessities and have access to some public amenities at the local commercial area in Taman Puchong Prima and neighbouring areas which are a short drive away.
Developing townships such as Putra Heights and Bandar Saujana Putra are within a small radius as well. However, due to the lack of road access currently, getting to these locations will require a fairly long detour.
For public transportation, the Puchong Prima LRT Station on the Sri Petaling line is less than 2km from 280 Park Homes. This station is one stop away from the Putra Heights station, which is the interchange station for the Kelana Jaya line that heads towards USJ, Petaling Jaya, KL Sentral, Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC), all the way to Gombak. In the opposite direction, the Sri Petaling Line covers multiple stops in the Puchong area such as Bandar Puteri, Pusat Bandar Puchong and IOI Puchong Jaya.

Analysis
280 Park Homes offers exclusive lifestyle living in Puchong Prima. Spread over a generous area, 280 Park Homes boasts of resort-inspired facilities with practical and spacious layout designs that are suitable for growing families.
Location wise, 280 Park Homes is in an area that is relatively further away from the busier quarters of Puchong such as Bandar Kinrara, Bandar Puteri Puchong and Bandar Puchong Jaya, where most of the amenities, retail complexes, and eateries are. As such, getting to these main commercial areas by car requires a fair bit of travel time, especially when one factors in the heavy traffic flow in Puchong.
However, residents have the convenient alternative of using the LRT to get to these destinations. There are also several fast developing townships close by to 280 Park Homes, such as Putra Heights and Bandar Saujana Putra. They offer alternative options but unfortunately direct connectivity and access is currently lacking. Perhaps with further developments in the area in the near future, infrastructural improvements could be expected.
