JOHOR BAHRU, Malaysia - Sept. 3, 2014 - PRLog -- Front Concept Sdn. Bhd., a Malaysian arm of leading private Australian developer– Walker Corporation, won two highly commended accolades at the inaugural 2014 Southeast Asia Property Awards ceremony held on 26 August 2014 at the Westin Hotel, Kuala Lumpur.  Its top-selling projects, Isola Villas and The WaterEdge Apartments, clinched the Best Housing Development (South Malaysia) and the Best Mid-Range Condo Development (South Malaysia) awards respectively.

The South East Asia Property Awards offer an unrivalled showcase of the Malaysia’s real estate industry, boosting awareness and highlighting top quality developers, projects and services at the region’s booming real estate destination. For the awards, the best residential property developments across Peninsula Malaysia are identified through a rigorous judging process by a panel of expert judges who considers every aspect of the property business such as development, architecture, interior design and marketing.

Commenting on the wins, Mr Quay Chew Keong, Project Director of Senibong Cove, said: “We are honoured to achieve such great recognition in the South East Asia Property Awards 2014”. These prestigious awards affirm that we are on the right direction, and they will further motivate the team to strive harder to benefit our stakeholders by delivering only the best.

Walker Corp has recently established its presence in Singapore with a new sales office located in Liat Towers on Orchard Road. The new office will facilitate the marketing of Walker Corp’s property portfolio in Malaysia and Australia to Singaporeans, who are the majority of buyers of Senibong Cove.

According to Mr Quay, “Establishing a sales office in Singapore is very important for our next stage of marketing, as Singaporeans comprise a majority of the total foreign home buyers at Senibong Cove. This office allows us a better foothold in the Singapore market.”

Of the two award-winning projects, the Isola Villas sits on an island within the masterplanned waterfront development of Senibong Cove. It has set new benchmarks in luxury villa development in Iskandar Malaysia. Built on an 84-acre island, the development features 144 exclusively developed detached and semi-detached luxury villas. With just nine units to an acre, each unit is designed to allow private and exclusive living.

The WaterEdge Apartments is an upscale, high-rise condominium comprising three tower blocks with a total of 655 units. The units come with functional and spacious layouts, and panoramic views of the Straits of Johor, the Lunchoo River and the proposed Marina. The special Dual-key units are best sellers as they cater well for multi-generation families and investors.

Upon full completion of the development, Senibong Cove will be home to an array of premium lifestyle facilities including a luxury yacht club, retail and food & beverage outlets. All these will be complemented by public amenities that include five parks, which are interconnected with boardwalks and pathways, giving residents of the masterplanned development a truly resort-like living experience.
