Location and neighbourhood

George Town is the state capital of Penang and the island's main city centre. Pengkalan Weld runs along the waterfront on the eastern side of George Town, close to the older part of the city. The surrounding area is built-up, with a mix of flats and other residential buildings. Several other developments are a short distance away. Measured in a straight line, Gat Lebuh Macallum (a flat) and Gat Lebuh Noordin Flat are each about 0.1 km away. Macallum Flat, a residential high-rise, and Noordinz Suites, a serviced residence, are both about 0.2 km away. Taman Harbour View (Wisma KGN), a flat, is about 0.3 km away, and Desa Pinang 2, also a flat, is about 0.7 km away. These are straight-line distances, so the actual walking or driving distance will be longer.

Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit, ask the agent or the management office about the tenure, the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and which facilities are available to residents. If you are buying, check the title and confirm whether there are any restrictions on the property. View the unit in person, ideally at different times of day, to get a feel for noise, light and parking. Look at the condition of common areas such as lifts, corridors and stairways, because they show how well the building is managed. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, note the deposit terms, and record the unit's condition when you move in. It also helps to compare a few units in Sri Saujana and in nearby developments before you decide.
