How much does a unit cost?+
The published starting price is RM589,000 for the smallest three-bedroom layout at 1,080 sq ft. Early-bird pricing was published at RM600 to RM630 per square foot for the first 300 units. Prices move with layout, level and tower, so ask for the current price list rather than working from a launch figure.
What sizes are available?+
Eight layout types (A through G, plus D1), from 1,080 – 1,726 sq ft. The three-bedroom plans start at 1,080 sq ft. Tower A carries 806 of the 982 total units at 18 per floor with six layout types from 1,080 to 1,653 sq ft; Tower B is the low-density tower at 176 units, four per floor, carrying Types F (1,483 sq ft) and G (1,726 sq ft). Some layouts offer a dual-key option.
Is it freehold?+
Freehold serviced residence on 7.95 acres in Bukit Gambier. "Serviced residence" is a distinct title category from "residential" — it typically carries higher utility tariffs and assessment rates than pure residential, but can allow short-term letting. Confirm the implications with your solicitor.
When does it complete?+
Published as March 2030. Construction timelines are set by the developer and can move; treat that as the current target and confirm the schedule before committing.
Who is the developer?+
Pinnacle Homes Sdn Bhd, the development arm of Pinnacle Group, founded in 2011 and headquartered in Petaling Jaya. Their portfolio includes Pinnacle Kelana Jaya, Pinnacle Petaling Jaya, Pinnacle Bangsar, Pinnacle Sri Petaling and Pinnacle Ara Damansara. The group received the Innovative Developer Award at the 2023/2024 ASEAN Property Developers Awards. This is their first project on Penang Island.
How many car parks come with each unit?+
Two to four bays depending on the layout. The larger four-bedroom plans come with more parking. Confirm the exact allocation for the unit you are considering — it varies by type and is stated in the sale and purchase agreement.
What facilities are there?+
Over forty, across the level 14 lifestyle podium and the 4.48-acre green lung at ground level. Highlights include an infinity pool and outdoor jacuzzi, a water playground for children, gymnasium and rhythmic studio, pickleball court, KTV room, co-working lounge, BBQ area, indoor kids' theme park, jogging track, observatory deck, multipurpose hall, sauna, themed gardens, and 26 EV charging bays at the visitor parking level. Security is a nine-tier system from the outer guardhouse through to individual digital locksets at every unit door.
What is the difference between Tower A and Tower B?+
Tower A is the larger block at 806 units and carries the full range of layouts. Tower B has 176 units and focuses on the larger four-bedroom plans. The two towers share the 7.95-acre site and the facilities deck.
What is a serviced residence versus a residential title?+
A serviced residence is categorised under commercial title, which normally means higher utility rates. However, this project is built under the Housing Development Act (HDA) with a Schedule H sale and purchase agreement, so buyers get statutory protections. More importantly, you can apply to the utility providers to convert to residential tariff rates after handover — a straightforward process that brings your water and electricity costs in line with residential-title properties. The conversion is an application, not automatic, but approvals are routine for HDA projects. Confirm the current process with the sales team.
Where exactly is Bukit Gambier?+
Bukit Gambier sits in the Gelugor mukim on the eastern side of Penang Island. Schools within a kilometre, USM about 2.4 km south, the Penang Bridge ten minutes away, and George Town fifteen. It is a hillside address rather than a coastal one — no sea view and no premium for it, but also none of the coastal-road congestion that comes with the north coast.
Can foreigners buy here?+
Generally yes, subject to Penang state consent and the state minimum purchase price for foreign buyers. The starting price of RM589,000 sits below the usual island threshold for foreigners, so not every unit will qualify — confirm the current minimum and which layouts clear it. A foreign-buyer stamp duty surcharge also applies.
What about MM2H?+
Malaysia My Second Home is a separate residency programme. Owning property does not grant it, and holding it does not exempt you from foreign-buyer rules. The programme runs in tiers — Silver, Gold and Platinum — each with a fixed deposit, a property minimum and a visa term. The terms have been revised more than once; ask for the current position.
What are the next steps?+
Message Kelvin on WhatsApp for the current price list, the unit schedule and the available layouts by tower and level. A booking deposit reserves a specific unit, after which the sale and purchase agreement is issued.
