First, see if it fits
Cantonment Residence is best suited to buyers who value space and an established neighbourhood.
Its strength is not compact units or resort-style facilities. It is the combination of Pulau Tikus convenience, nearby medical care and larger homes for long-term living.
Worth noting: if your priority is a lower entry price or a compact unit that is easier to rent out, this may not be the most direct fit.
Families planning a long-term home
More room for shared living, household privacy and everyday routines around schools and Pulau Tikus.
Retirees who value medical convenience
Hospitals, the wet market, Gurney and daily essentials stay within a familiar, established radius.
Overseas buyers settling in Penang
A mature neighbourhood is easier to understand while you gradually build your routines in Penang.
Danny's layout guidance
Ask Danny to narrow the layouts
Most families can begin with 2,009–2,691 sq ft. Consider more than 4,000 sq ft only when multigenerational living or regular hosting genuinely needs it.
Filter layouts before viewing
Built-up sizes range from 2,009 to 4,540 sq ft. Bigger is not automatically better.
The real question is whether your household, lifestyle and budget make good use of the space. Start with representative layouts, then narrow the units by floor, orientation and actual needs.
Typical floor plan
Understand the full-floor plan before choosing a layout.
Levels 11-26 mainly have 6 residences per floor, while Levels 27-33A mainly have 4. Larger high-floor homes are rarer, but total price, orientation, household size and the future resale audience still matter.
Type B · 2,009 sq ft
A practical entry point for families who want more space.
Assess the living and dining proportions, bedroom sizes and everyday storage.
Type E · 2,061 sq ft
Type E places the living and dining area at the centre, with the bedrooms grouped along one side.
Check how the doors, corridors and shared spaces feel during a viewing.
Type C · 2,691 sq ft
More breathing room for a long-term family home.
Suitable for buyers who value the master bedroom, shared areas and family privacy.
Type G · 4,034 sq ft
A larger home only makes sense when your lifestyle uses the space.
Better suited to multi-generational households, frequent hosting or families who value privacy.
