An Overview of Nadia 2

To get to Nadia 2, you actually have to go halfway round the hill to reach it, it’s actually on the other side of Grande View. Just after you reach Bayu Puteri (which is almost ready for handover) you will see the Nadia 2 under construction. The earlier Nadia launch will be completed later this year, it is set deeper away from the view, right at the foot of a very high terraced slope. Nadia 2 of course with it’s better location, sells for a premium, plus the fact there don’t seem to be much land on the hill left for development.

Nadia 2 is a 2 and a half storey linkhome set on 22’ x 75’ plot, with build up of between 2,515 to 2,585sq.ft. There isn’t much here that IOI hasn’t done before for some of their earlier launches, so no surprises. Besides, with Bandar Puteri nearing the maturing stage of development, there is ample opportunity to see just what kind of quality and finishing you can expect here (or any other of the phases).

For the intermediate units, you have 5 rooms and 4 baths. The 5th bedroom is actually a utility room downstairs. There is no powder room downstairs, nor an easily accessible shared bath, the bath is right at the back of the house beside the wet kitchen. A bit inconveniece for visiting guests.

For the other rooms, they all have attached bath, but room 2 and 3 on the first floor share one bath together. The second floor has one suite facing the back, and at the front there is a family area which can also be converted into a room. The 2nd floor only takes up about two thirds of the width of the home, so there are windows on the side of the home, giving more ventilation and lighting. It’s a nice touch, instead of the usual stuffy walled up family areas found in some other designs.

The porch is wide enough for 2 cars parked side-by-side. As with the trend around here, there is very little green lawn. Houses all face slightly off north or off south.

Corner units come with balcony at the first floor and terrace space at the ground floor. They also come with generous garden space and the pricing reflects that too.

In general, these later phases of Bandar Puteri and priced on the high side, what with all the facilities and amenities right there for you. Intermediate units will set you back RM470k with home loan, corner units vary in price according to the size of the land you are getting. Also, for Nadia 2, you don’t have to wait the full 2 years for your home to be completed as the construction is on going at the moment.

There are 6 rows of units, corresponding the same alignment as the earlier phase. You can actually choose the unit house number now if you want.

We actually like this place. For the view, it’s quite good, and around it there won’t be much development since it’s almost all accounted for. If you wanted the higher Grande View but weren’t able to get it, or thought that it was too expensive, here’s your chance.

The Storm

One day a young lady was driving along with her father.

They came upon a storm, and the young lady asked her father, What should I do?"

He said "keep driving".  Cars began to pull over to the side, the storm was getting worse.  

"What should I do." The young lady asked?

"Keep driving," her father replied.

On up a few feet, she noticed that eighteen wheelers were also pulling over.  She told her dad, "I must pull over, I can barely see ahead.  It is terrible, and everyone is pulling over!"  

Her father told her, "Don't give up, just keep driving!"

Now the storm was terrible, but she never stopped driving, and soon she could see a little more clearly. After a couple of miles she was again on dry land, and the sun came out.

Her father said, "Now you can pull over and get out."

She said "But why now?"  

He said "When you get out, look back at all the people that gave up and are still in the storm, because you never gave up your storm is  now over.

This is a testimony for anyone who is going through "hard times".

Just because everyone else, even the strongest, gives up. You don't have to...if you keep going, soon your storm will be over and the sun will shine upon your face again.loan

This story touched me! I hope it touched you!

Feel free to pass it on to someone you know, who is going through tough times. Tell them never give up, because GOD will never give up on them!
