1-World

1 World Condominium, Bayan Baru (10 July 2015)


1-World (GPS: 5.32878, 100.28483) is a 26-storey condominium at The One Penang Cyber City in Bayan Baru, Penang. Developed by Ideal, it is located between Lorong Mahsuri 3 and Lorong Mahsuri 4. Originally described as a 23-storey intelligent office building, 1-World has somewhere along the way morphed into a residential project. It has also spewed an additional block, originally called 1-World II, and then renamed 1-Sky.

It was completed at the end of 2012 on 99-year leasehold land. The condominiums have two unit types. Type A has a built-up area of 1,380 sqft while Type B a built-up area of 1,650 sqft.

My opinion of 1-World

This is a leasehold property in the heart of Bayan Baru. Living here means you are near to most of the amenities of the township. If you choose the units facing south, you can nice views of Bayan Baru, all the way to the Second Penang Bridge, as there are no tall buildings in front. On the other hand, if you choose the units facing north, we are face-to-face with 1-Sky.

Should buying leasehold be a concern? Yes and no. If you are staying there long term, it shouldn't be a problem, and you are unlikely to outlive the lease. Moreover, leasehold properties usually sell at a more attractive price than freehold ones. On the other hand, and for the same reason, leasehold properties might not appreciate as much as freehold ones.

Facilities at 1-World

Facilities include 24-hour security, multi-storey car-park (2 car park bays per unit), gymnasium and barbecue area, among others.

Location of 1-World

1-World is 13.3 km to Komtar, 6.8 km to the Penang Bridge, 5.9 km to the Second Penang Bridge and 5.2 km to the Penang International Airport via Jalan Tun Dr Awang.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
