WAKE up to the sound of birds chirping and sight of mist embracing the lush greenery around you.
The Green Planet Living @ Tambun Road development by Team Keris Bhd (TKB) is perhaps, one of the last few places next to Ipoh’s city centre where it is possible to experience such a scenario.
Set against the backdrop of the 250 million-year-old Tambun Hills, the final parcel of the development comprising 18 units of luxury three-storey and two-storey bungalows at The Dales emphasises a living experience surrounded by peace and quiet, fresh air and verdant jungle, without the need to sacrifice any aspects of modern living.
According to TKB director Michael Tan, the land on which The Dales sits on used to be a jungle.
“Steps were taken to preserve the natural terrain when we first started developing The Dales in 2000.
“We cut down as few trees as possible and planted more in open spaces over the years to further boost the already beautiful natural setting,” he said.
Facilities such as a tennis court, basketball court, playground, jungle walk, jogging and cycling track, reflexology path, bird watching point and a wild fish pond were also created to encourage residents to live a healthy lifestyle, he added.
“Topping the list of criteria for every home buyer is first, the location of the property, followed by its environment or surroundings, the neighbourhood, security, and design before finally arriving at the price tag.
“I believe Green Planet Living achieves a perfect ten in all the above,” he said.
Tan said it was possible to have all of it without losing the convenience of being in the city because amenities such as shopping centres, hospitals, banks and food outlets are just a few minutes’ drive from the project.
“Plus, the entry and exit points of the North-South Expressway are just right in front of The Dales’ main guard house.
