Real Estate Review: Bella Vista, Gurney Drive
Bella Vista (GPS: 5.43581, 100.31272) is an 8-storey apartment facing
Gurney Drive in Penang. This low-density block has 36 units built on freehold land in 1991. There are 6 residential units per floor, served by 2 lifts. Each unit has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and is about 1050 sqft in size. There are also two penthouse units with a built-up area of 2000 sqft.
The price of Bella Vista is due to its location on prime real estate, and its proximity to
Gurney Paragon Mall and
Gurney Plaza as well as
Gurney Drive Hawker Centre. The name Bella Vista means "beautiful view" in Spanish - in that regard, it doesn't disappoint, with panoramic views of Gunung Jerai on a clear day.
