Project Details
Austin Suites sometimes referred to as A-Suites, Taman Austin Perdana, Johor Bahru consists of one tower block which is 20 storeys in height. With 23 units per floor and four lifts (one for the Bomba and one for Cargo) covering a land area of approximately 3.8 acres, you can be sure of this development in a class of it’s own when it comes to low density.
With nine levels of parking, with each apartment or suite allocated no less than 2 parking bays, the ground and first floors dedicated to visitors, what more could you ask for?. There are indeed many other developments and for whetever reasons, only allocating one to two parking bays depending on the unit type, so Mah Sing has been more than generous to allocate two per apartment/suite no matter the unit type. What’s pleasing is the fact that tennis courts are provided which will help very much towards the exposure to this fast growing sport in the country.
The 9th floor of the multi-level parking facility is linked to the residences on all levels and upon reaching the ninth level, the last linkage to the apartments and suites, here you will find the tennis courts, reflexology area and much more. You can be sure that you cars/vehicles are safely tucked under so to speak from the weather whether it be sunshine or rain with smart card access to lifts.
Every apartment or suite comes with a balcony overlooking a wonderfully set oval shaped swimming pool surrounded by lush greenery and the quiet neighbourhood of Taman Austin Perdana, quiet and secluded yet only minutes away from major shopping malls and schools not forgetting Johor Bahru’s Sunway College and the nextdoor Commerical Hub.
