Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at Ferringhi Residence

A quiet, low-density address near the Batu Ferringhi beachfront. Here is the case, and the catch.

🏖️

Beach and resort strip close by

StarProperty puts Batu Ferringhi Beach and the Holiday Inn Resort about 1 km away, and the Batu Ferringhi market is about 800 m away.

🎓

Near an international school

The International School of Penang (Uplands) is roughly 500–700 m away, depending on the source.

🌿

Low-rise and gated

Twenty 5-storey blocks of 3+1-bedroom units, with two car park bays per unit and resort-style grounds including an infinity pool and clubhouse.

⚖️

What to weigh: distance from town

Gurney Drive is about 13 km and the airport about 34–35 km away, and the coastal road is the main route. The later Ferringhi Residence 2 towers add supply nearby.

Is it for you?

Which kind of buyer are you?

The same building suits different people for different reasons. Pick the line that sounds like you.

🏠 Living here yourself

Layouts here run from about 1,510 to 1,752 sq ft. Ask me which stacks get the better view and the least afternoon sun; that changes the price more than the floor.

💰 Buying to rent out

Compare the recorded rents in "The price numbers" above with the instalment on your loan. Smaller layouts usually rent faster; larger ones hold tenants longer.

👨‍👩‍👧 Family with children

Check the school and clinic distances in the location section, the number of car parks per unit and how busy the lifts are at 7.30 am.

✈️ Buying from overseas

Foreigners can only buy above the state minimum price and pay 8% stamp duty from 2026. Ask me which units here qualify before you shortlist.

Straight talk

What I will not hide from you

Every project has trade-offs. These are the ones I would want to know before paying a deposit.

  • ⚠️ A newer project, so many owners are renting out at the same time. Expect competition for tenants for the first few years.
  • ⚠️ Landed homes: check the land title, the facing, and whether the house has had extensions that need approved plans.
  • ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. Compare any offer with the recorded transacted price per sq ft above before you commit.

I work with local families, investors and buyers from Singapore and overseas. If a project is not right for what you need, I will say so; that is usually worth more than the brochure.
