Real Estate Review: Bella Vista, Gurney DriveBella Vista is an eight-storey apartment facing Gurney Drive in Penang. This low-density block has 36 units built on freehold land in 1991. Each unit has three bedrooms and 2 bothrooms, and is about 1050 square feet in size. The estimated selling price per unit ranges between RM380,000 and RM450,000 while the estimated rental is between RM1,600 and RM2,500. Maintenance fee is RM200 per month. There are also two penthouse units with an area of 2000 square feet.The price of Bella Vista is due to its location on prime real estate, and its proximity to 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.
