The Sun: A Modern Mixed-Use Landmark
The Sun Residences brings a mixed-use freehold development to Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, Sungai Nibong, Penang.
Completed in 2021 by Sepakat Mewah Sdn Bhd, the condominium project blends residential, executive suites, and commercial components to create a self-contained urban address.
The development includes 242 condominium units and 97 executive suites, along with commercial lots at ground level. These elements allow the project to function as both a home and a lifestyle hub.
The residential portion features spacious layouts, with the condominium units designed at around 1,313 sq ft. The executive suites feature a dual-key arrangement, providing added flexibility for families, professionals, or those seeking rental opportunities.
The Sun: Distinctive Highlights
Several aspects contribute to the appeal of The Sun as a residential address. One of the most notable is its proximity to the proposed nearby LRT Station. This future transport link is expected to improve public transport accessibility across the island.
Its frontage on Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah also offers direct access to one of Penang's busiest roads, linking Sungai Nibong with Bayan Lepas to the south and George Town to the north.
For digital connectivity, fibre optic infrastructure ensures reliable high-speed internet, meeting the demands of work, study, and leisure.
