Residensi Lestari I offers 7 townhouse layouts (marketed as town villas) across three low-rise blocks in Balakong, Cheras South — every one of them 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 23 ft wide, with 2 private car porch bays. Total space runs from 1,560 sq ft to 2,310 sq ft (strata built-up plus your private car porch). The real choice is between three living formats: single-level (A1, A2 — no stairs), duplex (B1, C1, B2) and triplex (D1, C2). Here’s every plan with honest guidance on who each suits.
Upper unit or lower unit? How the blocks work
Blocks A and B are 5-level buildings: single-level A1 homes sit on Level 1 alongside B1 duplex entrances, while C1 and D1 homes are entered from the Level 3 internal street with their own car porches at their door. Block C is a 4-level building with the same idea (A2 on ground, B2 and C2 above). Every home’s two parking bays are directly at its own entrance — the town villa format’s key advantage over a basement car park.
In Malaysian townhouse listings you will constantly see “upper unit” and “lower unit” (unit atas and unit bawah). Here the lower units are A1, B1 and A2, entered from ground level with a garden court. The upper units are C1, D1, B2 and C2, entered from an internal street with their own car porch at that entrance, so you are not carrying groceries up a public staircase. Lower units suit anyone who wants garden space or step-free access. Upper units are quieter and more private, and in this project they give you the larger built-ups at a lower price per square foot.

1,150 sf built-up + 410 sf car porch · Level 1 · garden · from RM701,500.
