The growing population in the Klang-Shah Alam corridor has resulted in a rising demand for lifestyle homes that encompass safety features and recreational facilities by young families or upgraders. Located in Setia Alam, Selangor, Eco Ardence is a joint-venture between EcoWorld and Cascara Sdn Bhd. The township development has an estimated gross development value (GDV) of RM8.5 billion and will be developed over the next 10 to 15 years.
The developer unveiled a new phase of landed homes in May 2019. It is branded as Cora, and it targets young families and upgraders who seek resort-style homes. This 41-acre freehold housing precinct comprises a total of 250 semi-detached homes and bungalows, that feature a modern contemporary design, water features, and Zen-inspired landscape that surrounds the exclusive clubhouse. There is a 2-minute video on Cora, which was uploaded in June 2019. You can watch it either on the developer’s YouTube channel or at the township’s website.
Cora is a low-density project with fewer than six houses per acre. The project’s scheduled completion is in 2022.

In January 2019, EcoWorld launched its Home Ownership Programme with EcoWorld (HOPE). It is a solution for purchasers to kick-start their journey as homeowners or to upgrade to their choice of EcoWorld homes. HOPE offers two home ownership options – Stay2Own (S20) and Help2Own (H2O). Each caters for different market segments and provides a comprehensive, practical and effective solution to the current challenge of home ownership in Malaysia. It is the developer’s way of supporting the national agenda on home ownership in Malaysia. However, the campaign has ended in June 2019

Analysis
Eco Ardence’s divisional general manager Liew Tian Xiong said that the growing population in the Klang-Shah Alam corridor has resulted in a growing demand for lifestyle homes with safety features, recreational facilities and vibrant outdoors, by young families or upgraders.
The gated-and-guarded Cora at Eco Ardence incorporates safety features to ensure the safety of residents. Instead of back lanes, pedestrian-friendly linear gardens allow residents and their families to enjoy the space without worrying about oncoming traffic. Just like previous phases of Eco Ardence, over 20% of the land in Cora will feature green areas.
