Launched in 2012 Skypod Residences Puchong is a 640 units service apartment located along Puchong Golden Mile. Fast forward to February 2016, the 2 towers of Skypod Residences Puchong had both now VPed. Skypod Residences Puchong Tower B VPed approximately 1/2 year ago.

To those who frequent Puchong Golden Mile (herein defined as the mega 12 lanes carriage way from IOI Mall to Bandar Puteri Puchong or ‘the straights of Puchong’), you will unlikely miss Skypod Residences Puchong.

Skypod Residences Puchong’s 2 Towers stood majestically opposite IOI Mall, unfazed and hugely recognizable despite being tucked behind IOI Business Park.

Unlike the Setiawalk or Bandar Puteri Puchong stretch, there are no many highrise around Bandar Puchong Jaya, IOI Mall stretch Skypod is be poised to be the land mark of Bandar Puchong Jaya, and we will tell you why.

Do pay attention to the facade of Skypod Residence Puchong, it is not easy to not remember!

It is definitely one of the memorable one! 忘-望不了 Get the point? This iconic building will definitely here to stay!

Pros:

  1. Location, location, location
  2. All amenities just 1-2km away, Setiawalk, cinemas, kareoke, banks, coffee, mamak, cafe, public transport, walking distance to IOI Mall & LRT station.

  3. Average units are priced very competitve at sub 500psf to 600psf, and developer managed to deliver few months ahead of contractual VP.

Cons:

  1. Facade choice of color can be better.
  2. Access is via Persiaran Puchong Jaya Selatan only.
  3. Significant cost cutting measures are seen. ‘Cut Spec’. We can point out a few again the brochure artist illustration.

a) lift lobby area are under-delivered, we thought we saw double volume lobby, grand lobby is not grand at all

b) club house is short that it is supposed to be in brochure.

c) green areas in brochure, i.e attached to facilities, attached to facade, wall areas are intentionally left blanks

d) Skypod Residences Puchong brochure branded the Skypod Residences as New Age Luxury, it is otherwise, mid cost apartment at best.

e) windows size shrank, sliding door size shrank

 

Don’t take our words for it, like usual we will have the picture to do the talking, enjoy!
