Sing Group, developers of

@

esidence project, bagged the
“Most Harmonious Community
Living Concept” award at the
recent Malaysia Property Awards
2015. Established as themost
luxurious phase within the
developer’s Kinrara Residence
project,
theSun
skims through the
blueprint of the development to
find out more about the gateless
neighbourhood created to promote
a harmonious and enriching
community living experience.
FLUIDITY
Wouldn’t most of us love the idea
of living in a gateless community?
One that bolsters the feeling of
being happy and carefree,
culminating in a neighbourhood
where neighbours become friends,
in a community that is concerned
and cares for each other.
Ideally, the name of the
development itself, Ambrosia,
aptly describes the picture perfect
scenario of the “ambrosial
lifestyle” that Mah Sing Group
plans to achieve through its
development project.
From its surrounds, developed
adjacent to one of the nation’s
most treasured forest reserves, the
3,000-acre Ayer Hitam Forest
Reserve, to the fact that the
development has no gates other
than the main gate which
welcomes one into an
environment that blocks out the
hustle and bustle of the world
outside – we delve further into
other features that make

most harmonious where
community living is concerned.
GATELESS
Like anything which has its pros
and cons, so too does the gateless
concept in community living.
Whilemany of us would love to live
in harmony in a closely knit
neighbourhoodwhere we can say
that we “know” our neighbours, call
themby their first names, and have
our neighbours in and out of our
houses, if not, our lives; there are
also those who care for privacy and
want their “own” and “personal”
space.
While there is no right or
wrong, these living concepts are
just a matter of preference.
The thought of gateless brings
to mind a happy, carefree, friendly
and open environment to which
the more reserved individuals and
families may not find stimulating.
Nevertheless, one can always find
a balance as there are means and
ways to draw the line to the idea of
living a “free-spirited” lifestyle.
Besides, Mah Sing’s concept is
really steered towards an enriched
living experience constituted on
care and concern, looking out for
each other, getting to know the
The developer has also
preserved the surrounding
greenery, constructing Ambrosia’s
79 exclusive bungalows and
66 semi-detached homes on
undulating terrain. Arranged
in linear fashion, the houses are
all placed on terraced platforms,
“stepping up in sympathy with
the elevated site”.
“Green” features include a
hybrid hot water system, rain
water harvesting, centralized
water filtration system, a booster
pump to enhance water pressure,
high ceiling in home designs to
promote natural lighting and
ventilation among other additional
environmental-friendly
enhancements.

a range of layouts across its
bungalow and semi-d units, all
three-storey and generous in

between 4,468 sf and 5,908 sf,
it is prettymuch like “ambrosia”
or “heaven on earth” where space
is concerned.
Whether indoors or outdoors,
there is a fluid feel of freedom, an
unrestrained easiness and
independence that incites a sense
of content, completeness and
wholesome satisfaction.
From six to seven bedrooms, all
ensuite, selected houses are
designed with private swimming
pools while others come with
double volume ceilings in the
living area. There is also a
residents’ clubhouse that offers a
host of facilities. These include
swimming pool, gymnasium,
multi-purpose hall and lounge
area. There is also the Ambrosia
Linear Park facilitated with a
children’s playground, jogging
track, cycling and reflexology path,
a basketball court, gazebos,
viewing decks and more.

people we live next or near to, and
perhaps inviting the lifestyles of
old as in the kampungs, where
people take interest to really get to
know and want to help each other.
TRUST
While doing awaywith gates may
help a community to bond, there
needs to be a certain amount of
trust among the people. Trust that
the “free to explore” gateless
surrounds will be “used” with care
and respect; trust that one’s family
members will be safe in the “free
for all” gateless consigns; trust that
one’s valuables and belongings will
be secure; trust that if one should
want some amount of privacy, it
can be obtained as andwhen; and
so on.
HowMah Sing ensures all the
above is by providing safety
assurance within each home in its
development, besides a host of
modern security and safety
features externally.
