NOVUM

Located in the nouveau Bangsar South, Novum is the latest aesthetically pleasing addition to Eupe Corporation Berhad’s property developments. With over 30 years of experience, Eupe is one of Malaysia’s respected developers and was once recognized as the top 10 Property Developers in Malaysia for the year 2013. A heavyweight in property development up north in Penang & Kedah, this will be the first project Eupe is developing in KL. Novum, a Latin word meaning ‘new innovation’ is a freehold serviced residence of luxurious suites for urbanites. With all the new age residences clambering to top one another in terms of facilities, it has become essential for developers to come up with unique ideas to attract urbanites to purchase their properties. In similar spirit, Novum has come up with several innovative ideas that will appeal to home owners. In this age where reality TV is all the rage, Novum brings you one step closer to starring in your own reality cooking show by incorporating a Celebrity Kitchen in the residential premises. Not only will residents be able to experiment with recipes using sophisticated cooking equipment, they will also be able to dine in to a top restaurant quality dish prepared by the in house appointed chef. Recognizing the potential in Bangsar South as a growing metropolitan, the developers, with surprising foresight, have included a business center in the residential building. Working expatriates and local corporate heads can utilize to the maximum the video and phone conferencing facilities, conference rooms as well as meeting rooms. In keeping with its string of innovative concepts, Eupe has also devised an application called the New Digital Life (NDL) app that will allow Novum residents to pay utility bills, order groceries and book Novum facilities. Once a slum village called Kampung Kerinchi, developers rebuilt Bangsar South to the upscale neighborhood that it now has become. Located within minutes of driving distance to Mid Valley Megamall and walking distance of Nexus Bangsar South, residents will never be short of options for shopping and dining avenues. The nearest road connection to Novum would be the Federal Highway followed New Pantai Expressway (NPE) and New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE). As for public transportation options, Kerinchi LRT station is a mere 50 meters away from Novum. A new LRT 3 line is also in the works to accommodate the burgeoning development and population in Bangsar South. While its freehold status definitely gives it an upper hand over its rivals, Novum’s developers are not betting on that alone to give them an edge over other developments. An Olympic-sized infinity pool, a cabana, a dancing & kickboxing studio, a floating gym and an outdoor gym are just a few of the facilities planned to ensure the residents’ lifestyle needs. All the recreational facilities will be located in the mezzanine and sixth floor of a separate building from the residential complex called The Es’pree. The residential complex will consist of three towers, A, B & C. Tower A, will have 10 units per floor with 40 storeys, Tower B will have 7 units per floor and 31 storeys and Tower C will have 10 units per floor and 37 storeys. Tower A will have one bedroom units ranging from 647 sq ft to 815 sq ft. Tower B will have 2 bedroom units ranging from 826 sq ft to 1,316 sq ft while Tower C will consist of 3 bedroom units ranging from 987 sq ft to 1,429 sq ft. All units will come furnished with fully fitted kitchen cabinets with hood and hob, an oven and sanitary ware of premium quality. With construction currently underway, the expected date of completion is estimated to be in May 2017. With a starting price of RM 642,000, the units are sold at RM 1,200 per sq ft. Maintenance fee is set at RM 0.40 to RM 0.50 per sq ft. While it is considerably pricey, it is to be expected considering its cutting edge amenities and prime location near Petaling Jaya and the Federal Highway.
