GEM Residences | Jalan Baru, Prai | Completed Freehold Condominium
In short
GEM Residences is a high rise condominium in Perai, Penang by Belleview Group. The development holds 978 units, 38 storeys, Studio to 3 bedroom layouts, built-ups from 441 to 1,445 sq ft. The land is freehold, the development is completed.
GEM Residences stands in Perai, Penang. The layout comes to 4 towers, 978 homes, 38 floors, Coral and Sapphire 8 · Ruby and Diamond 9 units to a floor.
There are 6 layouts on offer covering Studio to 3 bedrooms between 441 and 1,445 sq ft. It gives GEM Residences a mix rather than a single repeated plan.
GEM Residences is developed by Belleview Group on freehold land. The land usage is classified as commercial with HDA.
On paper the development reads as 38 storeys at Coral and Sapphire 8 · Ruby and Diamond 9 units each, 4 lifts serving them, a commercial with HDA land title.
GEM Residences is released in 6 layouts from 441 to 1,445 sq ft. The entry plan is Type A at 441 sq ft — a studio. The largest is Type C3 at 1,445 sq ft running to 3 bedrooms.
| Layout | Rooms | Size |
|---|---|---|
| A | Studio · — bath | 441 sq ft |
| B1 | 3 bed · — bath | 1050 sq ft |
| B2 | 3 bed · — bath | 1101 sq ft |

| C2 | 3 bed · — bath | 1196 sq ft |
| C3 | 3 bed · — bath | 1445 sq ft |
Layouts from 441 to 1,445 sq ft. A spread that wide means the building is not aimed at one kind of buyer, which usually leaves a broader market when it is time to sell.
9 homes to a floor. A short plate means a short corridor, fewer doors between the lift and yours, and neighbours you will actually recognise. It is decided by the floor plan and cannot be changed afterwards.
6 layouts to choose from. Enough that the floor plan can be matched to how you actually live rather than the other way round — worth walking more than one before deciding.
It is already built. Nothing here is a rendering. You can walk the corridor, ride the lift at 8am, see how the finishes have aged and meet the neighbours — none of which is available on an off-plan purchase.
Freehold. No lease to run down and no state consent needed on a future sale — which also means no lease-extension cost landing on a later owner.
42 shared facilities to maintain. Every one of them is cleaned, staffed, insured and eventually replaced out of the monthly charge. Ask for the rate per square foot and multiply it by the layout you are looking at.
The defect liability period has expired. Anything you find after handover is yours to fix, and whatever the previous owner renovated comes with the unit. View with a contractor rather than an agent, and look at the wet areas and the balcony line specifically.
No indicative price is published for this project. Without one you cannot compare it against anything else in Perai on a per-square-foot basis. Ask for the current price list by layout and floor band, not a single 'from' figure.
It sits on a commercial title. Housing-development protections still apply where the title says under HDA, but assessment and utility tariffs can follow the commercial schedule. Ask the developer to confirm in writing which one applies before you budget the monthly cost.
Every figure on this page comes from the developer. Unit counts, built-ups, distances and completion dates are as published by the developer or its appointed agents, and none of it is independently verified. Check anything you intend to rely on against the sale and purchase agreement.
Our take
GEM Residences in Jalan Baru, Prai is a Type B2 pick for most families. It gives three bedrooms plus utility across 1,101 sq ft, just 51 sq ft over Type B1, which has no utility room. Types C1, C2 and C3 (1,162–1,445 sq ft) make sense only if you want the bedrooms grouped on a single side.
