Alam Impian


For the background on the of Alam Impian and more on the location, connectivity and concept, check out the earlier review here. The developers are now stepping up their new launches to capitalize on the completion of the pilot phases, potential buyers can now see the quality of the completed homes. But more importantly they can also assess the overall concept of the development, which is one of the key selling points here.

Alam Impian has recently launched the follow up Canting 2, split into two phases. The first phase of 54 units was recently launched and has been fully taken up and the remainder of the 103 units, which form the second phase of Canting 2, is now open for sale.

This 2nd phase of Canting 2 incorporates two designs. Type 2, a linkhouse unit with variants was also available in the first phase, has a build-up of 2,467 to 3,517sq.ft. Taking into account the different designs for intermediate, corner and end lots, there are no less than 4 designs to choose from. Some variants are two and a half storey, thereby giving the larger build up of up to 3,500. For the extra floor, it consists of an extra bedroom with ensuite bath. Type 3 offers a different facade and design, the build up ranges from 2,586 to 3,128sq.ft. Strange enough, they are marketing the top most floor as an ‘attic’ rather than a 2nd master bedroom.

Other than that there is not much to fault on the design, the spacing all round is quite balanced and there porch is able to accomodate two cars (something quite important these days). We also like the facade design and colour scheme, not every development should mimic the contemporary white/grey colour look to a tee. Here the facade is dominate by a grey granite tile feature in the front, it definitely makes a bold entrance statement. The other stark feature is the pitched roof that is quite aesthetically pleasing especially from the front.




There are of course limited units of corner lots here, but they have the added garden space plus the design offers a larger footprint. Canting 2 has its own dedicated playground with a court for the residents, plus of course the landscaping that is a similar theme throughout Alam Impian. Homes here either face north or south. 


The price of the units start from about RM420k to over RM700k. For a linkhome, its pretty restrictive pricing, considering the location. But the recent launches here seem to follow this unrelenting trend, but the demand for it is still there as the sales show.
