About Butterworth
Butterworth is mainland Penang's main town, facing George Town across the channel, with Penang Sentral tying the ferry, the KTM line and the bus terminal into one hub.
Read more about Butterworth
Everything on this side of the water runs through Butterworth. Penang Sentral puts the ferry to Weld Quay, KTM Komuter and ETS services, and the interstate bus terminal under one roof, while the Penang Bridge and the North-South Expressway handle the driving. The industrial belt at Perai and Seberang Jaya is the employment base, and Bagan Ajam, Kepala Batas and Tasek Gelugor extend the residential catchment north. New stock here is a mix of high-rise on the town side and landed schemes further out, and land is still priced as mainland rather than island.

Butterworth New Project FAQ
What new projects are available in Butterworth?
Currently listed on MyDreamProp: Ayana Residence, Silkspring Residence, Paradigm Suites, Taman Selayang Jaya and D'Aleena Phase 2. The mix covers high-rise on the town side and landed schemes toward Seberang Jaya and Tasek Gelugor.
Is Butterworth a good place to buy?
It is the transport and employment core of mainland Penang. Penang Sentral, the Perai industrial belt and the bridge crossing are all here, and the schools, markets and hospitals are long established rather than promised. If your work is on the mainland, this is the address that shortens the day.
Are Butterworth projects freehold or leasehold?
Both exist on the mainland. Every project page on this site states the tenure on its own specification card, so check the individual listing rather than assuming by area.
How do you get around from Butterworth?
Penang Sentral carries the ferry to George Town plus KTM Komuter and ETS to Kuala Lumpur and the north. By road, the Penang Bridge crosses to the island and the North-South Expressway runs the length of the mainland.
What unit sizes are available in Butterworth?
The high-rise layouts here run from compact two-bedroom apartments up to three-bedroom family units, while the landed schemes are mostly double-storey terrace on 20-foot frontages. Sizes are listed per unit type on each project page.
Frequently Asked Questions about New Launch Properties in Butterworth
How much down payment do I need for a new launch in Butterworth?
Home loans in Malaysia typically cover up to 90% of the property price, so buyers usually prepare around 10% plus transaction costs. Some new launches come with lower upfront packages — check each project page or enquire via WhatsApp.
What extra fees should I budget when buying a new launch?
Besides the purchase price, budget for stamp duty on the Sale and Purchase Agreement and the loan agreement (loan stamp duty is about 0.5% of the loan amount), legal fees, and loan processing or disbursement costs.
What is a booking fee or earnest deposit?
A booking fee (earnest deposit) is a small percentage of the price paid to reserve a unit before signing the Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA).
How does payment work for an under-construction project?
Under-construction homes follow a progressive payment schedule tied to construction milestones set out in the SPA, so you do not pay the full amount upfront.
What is the difference between freehold and leasehold?
Freehold has no fixed ownership period, while leasehold is held for a set term (commonly 99 years). Each project page shows its exact tenure and land title.
When will a new launch project be completed?
Each listing shows the project expected completion or vacant possession (VP) date. New launch homes are usually handed over a few years after launch.
Can foreigners buy property in Butterworth?
Foreigners can buy above a state minimum price threshold, and many projects in Butterworth are foreigner-friendly. Confirm eligibility on each project page or via WhatsApp.
