The final residental block, Ixora Residence, in the mature 216-acre Bandar Sri Permaisuri in Kuala Lumpur was launched last month. Ixora Residence is part of the RM450 million Ari Permaisuri, which includes Residensi Wilayah, affordable housing project Residensi Akasia, and condominium project Rumbia Residence @ Ari Permaisuri. The names Akasia, Rumbia and Ixora form the word “Ari”.
Located on 8.05 acres of leasehold land, Ari Permaisuri is a joint venture development between Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) and Dwitasik Sdn Bhd. EH Property Sdn Bhd is the project manager.
Dwitasik executive director Datuk Wan Mohamed Yaacob Wan Salaidin says Bandar Sri Permaisuri was initially planned as a public golf course in the 1990s. The plan was subsequently changed so that the area could be developed into a mixed development to provide more housing.
