On cloud nine

LOCATED in the heart of Johor Baru town, under the Iskandar Malaysia flagship (Zone A) earmarked as an upcoming CBD area, is Setia Sky 88. Noted as the most elevated residential development in Johor, the project under S P Setia consists of freehold luxury serviced apartments build to reflect “Life in the Clouds”.
ON TIME AND IN STYLE
Setia Sky 88 comes with a GDV of RM800 million. The project is said to incorporate one of the tallest residential and iconic buildings in Iskandar, consisting of 55 levels. There are three residential towers in its design – Altus, Sora and Nube. They offer 838 residential units that come with a wide range of exquisite and exclusive facilities and amenities.
The topping-out ceremony for Setia Sky 88 was recently celebrated. The event was graced by the Johor State executive councillor for housing and local government Datuk Abdul Latiff Bandi, S P Setia Berhad chairman Tan Sri Wan Zahid Mohd Noordin, senior dignitaries, contractors, partners and associates. The event marked the near completion of the Nube and Sora towers.
As both the towers, which were launched in 2012, are only expected to be completed in 2017, “the ceremony marked our commitment to stand by our promise of timely delivery to our customers,” said Wan Zahid.
SOPHISTICATED LIFESTYLES
Ideal for those who enjoy the “elevated” lifestyle, Nube and Sora are both lavished with a host of facilities that include a dip pool, a sky garden, an aqua gym, a recreational room, a karaoke room and a gourmet kitchen. All these are situated across levels 42 and 44 and come with a spectacular view of the cityscape. These are just some of the many other sparkling conveniences and luxurious comforts for residents to indulge in.
For the eco-conscious individual, they will be glad to know that Setia Sky 88 is BCA Green Mark certified and Conquas compliant. The development incorporates various green features in its design and function. The developer’s LiveLearn WorkPlay philosophy is also employed within the facilities, landscape, waterscapes and design.
As in all development projects, location is important and so it is with Setia Sky 88, strategically situated within a 3km radius to the CIQ complex in Johor Baru and the Rapid Transit System (RTS) final terminal to Singapore. Moreover, as there are pros and cons across all residential types, the advantages at Setia Sky 88 clearly outweigh the drawbacks.
TWO-IN-ONE
During the ceremony, Abdul Latiff also handed over 383 Rumah Mampu Milik Johor (RMMJ) units located in Setia Eco Gardens, which launched 352 additional RMMJ housing units in the same area, in addition to 490 RMMJ units in Setia Business Park 2, Tebrau.
“Backed by a strong track record and being a leading real estate developer in Malaysia with a portfolio comprising eco-townships, eco-sanctuaries, luxury enclaves, high-rise residences, commercial and retail developments, S P Setia is confident and committed to deliver quality and comfortable yet affordable homes in our self-contained townships,” added Wan Zahid.
