Neo Damansara is a leasehold mixed commercial and residential development at Jalan PJU 8/1, Damansara Perdana, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, developed by Paradigma Intan Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of EMKAY Group. The residential serviced apartment component comprises approximately 168 units across 6 blocks of 6 to 14 storeys, with built-up sizes from 421 sq ft to 876 sq ft. The project was completed in 2012. The broader development also includes shop lots, an office tower, and a banquet hall on a 7.64-acre commercial leasehold site. Surian MRT station on the Kajang Line is approximately 500 to 600 m away. Main locational strengths include Penchala Link access to Mont Kiara and Jalan Duta, proximity to The Curve and IKEA Damansara, and the Surian MRT connection. The main trade-offs are the commercial land title, compact unit sizes, and the mixed commercial-residential character of the building.

Neo Damansara is a leasehold mixed commercial and residential development in Damansara Perdana, Petaling Jaya, developed by Paradigma Intan Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of EMKAY Group. The project was completed in 2012 and sits on 7.64 acres of commercial leasehold land at the gateway of Damansara Perdana.

The development comprises approximately 168 residential serviced apartment units across 6 blocks of 6 to 14 storeys, alongside shop lots, an office tower, and a banquet hall. Ground-floor units are allocated for retail, while upper floors house the residential and office components. Unit sizes range from studio to 2-bedroom layouts at 421 sq ft to 876 sq ft, making it one of the smaller-footprint serviced apartment options in the Damansara Perdana corridor.

Neo Damansara is located at Jalan PJU 8/1 at the entrance of Damansara Perdana, positioned at the junction of the Penchala Link interchange and the broader Damansara commercial corridor. The development sits close to the Persiaran Mokhtar Dahari commercial belt and the Metropolitan Square area.

Surian MRT station on the Kajang Line is approximately 500 to 600 m from Neo Damansara, making it the nearest rail station for residents. Bus routes PJ06, 780, and T810 serve bus stops adjacent to the development, with connections toward Mutiara Damansara, 1 Utama, and surrounding areas.

Neo Damansara is directly accessible from Jalan PJU 8/1 and the Penchala Link, which provides a fast corridor toward Mont Kiara and Jalan Duta. From Penchala Link, residents can access the DUKE Highway toward Ampang and KLCC within approximately 20 minutes off-peak, and the LDP toward Kepong, Kelana Jaya, Subang Jaya, and Puchong.

Damansara Perdana's internal road network and Jalan PJU 8/1 can experience congestion during weekday morning peaks, particularly around the Penchala Link-LDP interchange. The Penchala Link is among the faster routes into central KL from this part of Petaling Jaya during off-peak periods.

Neo Damansara's residential suites range from 421 sq ft to 876 sq ft, accommodating studio to 2-bedroom configurations.

The development includes a parking structure within the mixed commercial complex. Car park access is shared across the residential, retail, and office components.

Facilities at Neo Damansara are located on the 6th-floor facility deck and include a swimming pool, children's pool, reflective pool, gymnasium, sauna, surau (male and female), children's playroom, multi-purpose hall, and reading room. BBQ area, jogging track, tennis court, squash court, minimart, and club house are also available. 24-hour security is maintained throughout.

Approximately 168 residential units across 6 blocks of 6 to 14 storeys on 7.64 acres represents a low residential density. The low unit count is one of Neo Damansara's distinguishing features within the Damansara Perdana area, which is predominantly served by larger high-rise residential developments.

The mixed commercial nature of the development means common areas, lobby access, and lifts serve both residential occupiers and commercial tenants and visitors, which can affect the residential experience during business hours.

Based on data published by NAPIC, Neo Damansara recorded a median transacted price of approximately RM 713 per sq ft, based on available transaction data for units on floors 11 to 15 (as of the available reference period cited by NAPIC). The low transaction volume in recent periods limits the precision of this median figure.

All distances are approximate, measured from Jalan PJU 8/1, Damansara Perdana. Drive times are off-peak estimates. Jalan PJU 8/1 and Penchala Link junction may experience peak-hour congestion during weekday mornings.

Perdana Emerald Condominium (Damansara Perdana, Petaling Jaya) is a residential condominium in the same Damansara Perdana corridor, approximately 500 m from Neo Damansara. Perdana Emerald offers a more traditional residential strata format, typically with larger built-up sizes and a purely residential community character, contrasting with Neo Damansara's mixed commercial-residential profile.

Empire Damansara (Damansara Perdana, Petaling Jaya) is a larger mixed development by Mammoth Empire Holding Sdn Bhd, also at Damansara Perdana and approximately 1 km from Neo Damansara. Empire Damansara is a larger-scale integrated development that also combines commercial and residential components, offering a useful comparison for buyers evaluating Neo Damansara's smaller community scale against a larger mixed-use address in the same locality.

Neo Damansara may suit single professionals, young couples, and investors who want a Damansara Perdana address at a compact built-up size. The studio and 1-bedroom layouts from 421 sq ft suit urban singles and small households. The Surian MRT connection at approximately 500 to 600 m makes it relevant for residents who commute by rail toward Kuala Lumpur, Cheras, or Subang Jaya on the Kajang Line.

It is less suited to families needing multiple large bedrooms, or buyers who prefer a freehold residential title with a purely residential community environment.

The commercial land title at Neo Damansara means utility charges for electricity and water are assessed at commercial tariff rates, which are higher than residential tariffs. The mixed-use nature of the development - combining residential suites, shop lots, and an office tower - creates a building environment that is shared with commercial users and visitors during business hours.

Unit sizes from 421 sq ft to 876 sq ft are compact, and buyers assessing long-term owner-occupancy should evaluate whether the smaller built-up sizes are practical for their household size. The leasehold tenure adds to the considerations for long-term capital value compared to freehold alternatives in nearby Damansara townships.
