The Developer
Clearwater Group is a boutique developer formed by a group of friends from architectural, design, property development, financial and hotelier background who conceived the idea of developing a small enclave of apartments for their personal habitat. Disillusioned with many of the large scale and corporate projects where detailing was often sacrificed for more practical objectives of a development, the founders wanted to develop a project which they, together with their families and friends would want to live in.
Clearwater’s mantra is adopted from a quotation “Shrug off the constraints you have allowed others to place upon you”. The company was formed with the objective of developing projects that they would be proud of thus requiring the culture of “thinking out of the box” as well as a focus on detailing and quality.
Since its inception in 2004, the Clearwater Group has expanded its projects throughout Malaysia. The Group currently has three brands under its belt namely Clearwater Residence, Bluconstellation and the upcoming mid-rise project known as Dream City.

Blue Water Estate
Blue Water Estate surrounds Dream City
An idyllic escape right in the heart of a thriving city? It could just be a pointless pursue for some but in a place like Dream City, anything is possible.
The very basis of this development is to cultivate peaceful and serene living despite the location. Hence, Blue Water Estate was created to invoke such ambiance around Dream City.
Blue Water Estate includes a 51-acre deep-water lake, which constitutes 20% of the entire recreational development. This majestic lake is a picturesque of perfection for residents and their families to take their mind off their daily errands and work. An ideal location to relax and rejuvenate through outdoor activities and sports. It also acts as a natural moderator to reduce the urban sink effect and temperatures. This is the heart of this majestic development that puts Dream City homeowners and the environment as its main priorities.
Welcome to Dream City
Dream City promises serenity and ambiance like no other. Nestling on 7 acres of land, the development takes the limestone mountains of Kuala Lumpur as an inspiration in its architectural design. Spanning over this great massive land is its seven residential towers that provide luxurious ambiance at its finest along with facilities of great stature.
Dream City is a work in progress
Among the development’s highlights is the 90,000 sq ft Sky Park that connects all seven towers together.

Location
Sleepy Rubber Estate Town to a Thriving Town
Getting to Seri Kembangan
Seri Kembangan is a development driven city, given the prospects and potential seen by many local and foreign developers. This expanding town started off humbly as homes for thousands of miners and rubber tappers as Seri Kembangan or formerly known as Serdang New Village was surrounded by jungles and rubber estates in the early 1940s. There were merely 15,000 people living scattered all over the area back then.
What a major contrast to what it is now. Seri Kembangan is now packed with well-planned developments and high density housing projects, added on with great public infrastructures that has witnessed the growth of the population to 150,000 people.
Dream City nestles right in the heart of Seri Kembangan along Jalan Anggerik, capitalising on such immense potential of the area. Hence, you won’t be able to miss this one of a kind landmark once you are here!
Making Seri Kembangan Closer
With great growth within this area, it is crucial to make it accessible to all. Hence, roads and public transportations are in need to make the area competitive and appealing to homebuyers and investors in making Seri Kembangan a preferred destination.
Getting to Seri Kembangan is now relatively easy. One can use KL-Seremban Highway, Sg Besi Highway (BESRAYA), SILK Highway, Puchong Sungai Besi Link, KESAS (Shah Alam Expressway) and Cheras-Kajang Highway. It is merely less than a 30-minute drive to both KLIA and KLIA 2. And getting to the centre of Kuala Lumpur would take an estimated 20 minutes via driving.
Besides competent road networks, public transportations too show promising signs. There are two train stations nearby that include KTM Komuter Serdang Station and Sungai Besi LRT Station. To amplify public transportation access, the area is currently going through massive public transportation ‘makeover’ with the construction of MRT Sungai Besi-Serdang-Putrajaya Line. There will be ample stations to choose from in getting to and fro city centre and the rest of Klang Valley. Closest stations include Serdang Raya North, Serdang Raya South, Seri Kembangan and UPM. The entire line is expected to be completed by 2021.
The Mines is located right across the street from Dream City
Welcome to Mini Mines Wonderland
