Queens Residences 3

Everything below comes from the developer’s own material. These are the figures that are fixed at construction — renovation changes none of them, so they are worth checking before anything else.

- **Developer** — Ideal- **Property type** — High Rise Condominium- **Tenure** — Freehold- **Land area** — 2.9 acres- **Blocks** — 1- **Storeys** — 25- **Total units** — 532- **Units per floor** — 28- **Lifts** — 8 passenger + 2 service- **Ceiling height** — 10 ft- **Car parking** — 2 bays per unit (3 bays for the 1,400 sq ft layout)- **Security** — 3-tier — guardhouse, lift lobby, in-lift- **Completion** — End of 2027

The number that matters most here is 28 units to a floor. That is a dense floor plate by Penang standards, and it is the reason the lift count is worth reading twice: eight passenger lifts plus two service lifts. Ten lift shafts for 28 doors is generous provisioning, and it is fixed at construction — you cannot add a lift later, and no amount of management fee solves a building that was under-lifted from day one.

The second fixed number is the 10 ft ceiling. Standard is closer to 9 ft, and the extra foot is the kind of thing you stop noticing after a week of living there but feel immediately on the first walkthrough. It also gives you room for a proper fan drop or a ceiling-mounted air-conditioning run without the room closing in.

Car parking is two bays per unit, and three bays for the 1,400 sq ft layout. In a seafront precinct where street parking is not an option, that ratio is one of the few specifications you genuinely cannot renegotiate after handover.

Balcony widths differ by type and are worth checking against how you actually intend to use the space: 1,000 mm on Type A, 1,500 mm on Types B, B1 and C, and 1,850 mm on Type D. A metre of balcony is a drying rack. Nearly two metres is a table and two chairs.

### Unit Types

| Type | Size | Bedrooms | Bathrooms | Notes | |---|---|---|---|---| | A | 950 sq ft | 2+1 | 2 | Dual Key, 152 units | | B | 1,000 sq ft | 3 | 2 | 171 units | | B1 | 1,000 sq ft | 3 | 2 | 19 units | | C | 1,280 sq ft | 3 | 2 | 114 units | | D | 1,400 sq ft | 3 | 2 | 76 units |

Type A is a dual key layout — one entrance door opening to two self-contained sections, which is why its 950 sq ft is described as 2+1 rather than 3. Type B and Type B1 share the same 1,000 sq ft area and the same three-bedroom count; B1 is the smaller run of 19 units and sits at a different position on the floor plate, so ask to see the keyplan for both before you decide which stack you want.

Bayan Lepas is where Penang goes to work. The Free Industrial Zone on the island’s southern edge is the largest electronics and engineering employment cluster in the country, and it is the reason this stretch of coast has the tenant demand it does — the people filling these towers are largely working within a short drive of them.

Queens Waterfront sits on the seaward side of Persiaran Bayan Indah, which puts Queensbay Mall — Penang’s largest, with over 400 stores — in the same immediate precinct rather than a drive away. The Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway runs along the front of the area and is the spine that connects north to George Town and south to the second bridge crossing.

**Work & Industry**

**Getting Around**
