Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at Residensi Bayou
Newer three-storey freehold houses in a guarded resort estate on the western side of Iskandar Puteri. Here is the case, and the catch.
Inside a resort estate
The precinct sits within Leisure Farm, next to its canal park, clubhouse, riding stables and about 400 acres of protected forest, as listed by the developer. Security runs 24 hours.
Three floors, 4+1 bedrooms
Every type has four bedrooms plus one, across three storeys. The garden link has the larger yard; the semi-D has the largest yard and a lower ground floor.
Above the foreign-buyer line
Asking prices seen in October 2026 start at about RM1.9 million, so the homes sit above Johor’s RM1 million minimum for foreign buyers.
What to weigh: thin records and a car-only location
Unit counts differ between sources and we found no published transaction prices yet. Leisure Farm is about 15 km from the Second Link and 30 km from JB city centre by road, so daily errands need a car.
The development
Residensi Bayou @ Leisure Farm, decoded
Three house types on 8.7 acres of freehold land inside Leisure Farm, Gelang Patah.
The three house types
From the comparison table on the developer’s project page. The developer’s page gives two land sizes for the super link (24 × 75 ft and 24 × 80 ft); ask for the plot size of the exact house.
| Type | Built-up | Land | Homes | Floors · bedrooms |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Super link | 3,344 sq ft | 24 × 75 ft | 24 | 3 storeys · 4+1 |
| Garden link | 3,560 sq ft | 24 × 80 ft | 32 + 8 corner | 3 storeys · 4+1 |
| Semi-D | 3,457 sq ft | 28 × 90 ft | 10 | 3 storeys + lower ground · 4+1 |

Track record
About Leisure Farm Corporation Sdn Bhd
Residensi Bayou is developed by Leisure Farm Corporation Sdn Bhd, the developer of the whole Leisure Farm estate, including Bayou Creek next door.

Is it for you?
Which kind of buyer are you?
The same project suits different people for different reasons. Pick the line that sounds like you.
🏠 Living here yourself
All three types have 4+1 bedrooms, so the choice is mostly about the yard and the plot. Ask me which houses back onto green space or the canal, and which sit nearer the gate.
💰 Buying to rent out
Large houses in a resort estate rent to a narrower group of tenants, often families on expatriate packages. Ask me for current rental listings here before you count on a rent.
👨👩👧 Family with children
EduCity is about 11 km and Marlborough College about 13 km by road, per the developer. Time the school run at 7.30 am before you decide.
✈️ Buying from overseas
Foreigners can only buy above the state minimum price (RM1 million in Johor) 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.
- ⚠️ Records differ: the developer’s layout table adds up to 74 homes, while The Edge Malaysia and PropertyGuru give 92. Ask for the strata plan of the exact house.
- ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. I found no published transacted prices for Residensi Bayou yet, so ask me for recent recorded sales in Leisure Farm before you commit.
- ⚠️ Three storeys means stairs every day. If parents will live with you, check where the bedrooms sit on each floor.

Frequently asked questions
How many houses are there and what sizes?
The developer’s comparison table lists 24 super links of 3,344 sq ft, 32 garden links plus 8 corner units of 3,560 sq ft, and 10 semi-Ds of 3,457 sq ft, which adds up to 74 homes. The Edge Malaysia and PropertyGuru give 92, so records differ. Every type has three storeys and 4+1 bedrooms.
Is Residensi Bayou freehold?
Yes. The developer’s project page and PropertyGuru both state freehold tenure. It is a stratified landed precinct, so ask your lawyer to confirm the strata title for the specific house.
How is it different from Bayou Creek?
Both are gated precincts of Leisure Farm by the same developer. Bayou Creek is two-storey semi-Ds and bungalows completed in 2016; Residensi Bayou is newer three-storey link and semi-D homes, unveiled in 2019.
Can a foreigner buy here?
In Johor a foreign buyer generally needs to pay at least RM1 million for a residential property, with Johor state consent. Since 1 July 2025 Johor charges foreign buyers a consent levy of 3% of the price or RM30,000, whichever is higher, and stamp duty on transfers to foreigners is a flat 8% from 1 January 2026. Asking prices here start near RM1.9 million, so the homes clear the price line; check that the house is not on a Bumiputera lot.
How much cash do I need to buy at Residensi Bayou?
For a house at RM2,000,000, a Malaysian buyer with a 90% loan needs about RM316,740 before getting the keys, covering the down payment, stamp duty and legal fees. A foreign buyer with a 70% loan needs about RM806,420, before the state consent fee. The full table is in “What buying here costs in 2026”.

Harga tawaran di PropertyGuru pada Oktober 2026 bermula sekitar RM1.9 juta untuk rumah berangkai tiga tingkat, dan sekitar RM2.5 juta untuk rumah berkembar. Pegangan bebas, 4+1 bilik tidur.
Residensi Bayou @ Leisure Farm 价格多少？

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.
