11 Gurney Drive Condominium, Penang

Real Estate Review: 11 Gurney Drive,

11 Gurney Drive is a luxurious 34-storey condominium along Gurney Drive, between 1 Persiaran Gurney and Gurney Hotel. An abodes of the super rich, it has only 61 units, meaning there is just at most 2 units per floor. The units have sizes ranging from 3,466 to 4198 square feet - to say they are spacious is putting it lightly.

Traffic

Traffic is perenially heavy on Gurney Drive. This is especially so during weekends and evenings.

Having said that, you are within walking distance to many food and beverage outlets.
