KSL Bukit Gemilang

KSL Bukit Gemilang — the scheme name is Pangsapuri KSL Bukit Gemilang — is a completed apartment development on Jalan Gemilang 5 in Taman Bukit Gemilang, Skudai, by Khoo Soon Lee Realty Sdn Bhd, part of KSL Holdings Berhad. Two blocks hold 476 units on 5.95 acres, with 24 shop lots at street level, car park on Levels 2 to 4 and homes from Level 5 to Level 21.

Every unit here is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home of either 850 or 915 sq ft. There is no studio and no one-bedroom stock in the building. Ceiling height is 10 ft throughout, and every unit comes with two free car park bays — not one, and not bought separately.

The variants are about outdoor space rather than layout. Six of the ten types add a private garden on the same floor plan, from 392 sq ft up to 1,255 sq ft — an unusual thing to find attached to an apartment of this size.

Three numbers that are not normal for this segment

Two free car park bays per unit. In this corridor one bay is the norm and the second is a separate line item if it exists at all. Here both are allocated on vacant possession. For a three-bedroom household with two working adults, that is the difference between the building working and not working.

A 10 ft ceiling. The segment standard is 8 to 9 ft. Two extra feet of head height changes how an 850 sq ft apartment reads from the doorway, and it is fixed at construction — no renovation recovers it.

A 991-year land tenure, running to 3 September 2911. Technically a lease, but at nine centuries it behaves like freehold for every practical purpose a buyer or a bank will care about. Read it as a long tenure rather than as a short one.

Against that, be clear-eyed about the vertical transport. Each block has two passenger lifts and one fireman’s lift for 21 storeys. That is a thin allocation, and on a building where every home is a three-bedroom — so more people per unit than a studio block — it is the thing to test at peak hours before you commit.

Unit Types

Type A2 carries the largest garden at 1,255 sq ft — more outdoor space than the 915 sq ft apartment it is attached to.

Layout & Floor Plan

All ten plans are the developer’s own drawings, each printed with its type code, built-up area and garden area where one applies.

There are really two floor plans here. Type A is the 915 sq ft plan and Type B the 850 sq ft plan, both three-bedroom and two-bathroom, both with a balcony, a yard behind the kitchen and a foyer at the entrance. Everything else is a variant of those two.

A1, A2 and A3 are the Type A plan with a private garden and terrace attached — 1,055, 1,255 and 392 sq ft respectively. B1, B2 and B3 are the Type B plan with a garden of 1,119, 719 and 719 sq ft. B4 and B5 are Type B without a garden, differing in position rather than in the apartment itself.

So when you compare types here, you are not comparing interiors. The interior is one of two plans. What changes is whether outdoor space comes with it, and how much.

Facilities

The facilities floor is Level 5, sitting directly above the three car park levels.

• Swimming pool
• Kids swimming pool
• Gym room
• Playroom and a separate playing room for kids
• Kindergarten
• Sauna room
• Cafe room
• Multipurpose board
• Prayer room
• Management office

An on-site kindergarten is worth noting in a building where every unit is a three-bedroom. There are also 24 shop lots at street level, twelve in each block.

Location & Connectivity

Taman Bukit Gemilang sits in Skudai, on the western side of Johor Bahru between Mutiara Rini and Taman Ungku Tun Aminah. This is a built-out residential belt rather than a new frontier — the schools, markets and hypermarkets are already there rather than promised for a later phase.

• Taman Mutiara Rini
• SMK Taman Mutiara Rini 2
• Mydin
• Lotus’s
• Taman Ungku Tun Aminah
• Skudai town
• Second Link Expressway
• Senai International Airport

The Second Link Expressway runs from this side toward Singapore, which is the crossing that serves western Johor. There is no rail station here, so daily life assumes a car — which is part of why two free bays per unit matters as much as it does.

Developer Background

KSL Bukit Gemilang is developed by Khoo Soon Lee Realty Sdn Bhd, part of KSL Holdings Berhad — a Johor developer with a long record on this side of the state. The building is finished and has received its completion certificate, so what is on sale is developer stock in a standing building: the common property, the facilities floor and the way the estate is run can all be inspected before you decide.

One thing to check early. The current release includes bumi lots, and the developer’s sales package covers both bumi and non-bumi release. Ask which category the specific unit you are looking at falls under before you go any further, because it affects what can be transacted.
