Sunway Property’s The BIG Deal draws strong demand

Chin Hin unveils Botanica Hills Phase 3 at Templer KUALA LUMPUR: Chin Hin Group Property (CHGP) recently unveiled Botanica Hills Phase 3 at Templer, marking another milestone in its first freehold township development. Building on the strong momentum of its earlier launches — with an impressive 95% take-up rate for Phase 1 and Phase 2 — this new phase continues the success story of Botanica Hills as one of the most sought-after new township developments in the Klang Valley, designed for the new generation of homeowners. Part of a 55.72-acre freehold master plan, Botanica Hills Phase 3 introduces 164 units of two-storey terrace homes designed for family living. Each home features four bedrooms and three to four bathrooms, with built-ups ranging from 1,821 sq ft to 2,027 sq ft and prices starting from RM858,000. Inspired by nature and guided by the vision of creating sustainable communities, Botanica Hills continues to reflect CHGP’s design philosophy — harmonising modern comfort with a serene, green environment that nurtures both family and lifestyle. In line with Chin Hin Group’s commitment to sustainability and innovation, Botanica Hills Phase 3 will feature CoolPro, an advanced all-in-one cooling solution developed by Chin Hin Group’s building materials division. CoolPro enhances energy efficiency and indoor comfort by reducing heat gain through the roof, walls, and glass — helping homes stay naturally cooler while lowering energy use. Our innovative approach not only ensures high-quality, sustainable homes but also demonstrates how modern construction technology can elevate everyday living while reducing environmental impacts via carbon footprint reduction and the use of environmentally responsible materials. Nestled within the lush greenery of Templer, Botanica Hills is more than a residential address — it is a community surrounded by natural heritage. The township is home to the Hopea subalata (Giam Kanching), an endangered tree species with fewer than 400 known specimens worldwide, giving the area a unique ecological significance.

o Campaign achieves RM1b in bookings within three months, with shift in preference towards integrated developments Master Community Developer Sunway Property hits RM1 billion in bookings within three months of the recent launch of The BIG Deal campaign across Klang Valley, Johor, Penang and Ipoh. Alongside the sales achievement recorded, Sunway Property also discovered consumer preferences and demand in homeownership across Malaysia, signalling evolving homebuyer priorities in 2026.
