Key takeways:

  • Gamuda Land is the property development arm of Gamuda Berhad, creating integrated townships where homes, infrastructure, green spaces, lifestyle destinations, and community amenities come together within a single masterplan.
  • Gamuda Land leverages digital engineering, smart-city technologies, and Malaysia's first Next-Gen Digital IBS to support township planning and construction delivery.
    Sustainability is guided by the Gamuda Green Plan and supported by Gamuda Parks, alongside treating nature as infrastructure, benefiting from functional natural systems.
  • From wetland sanctuaries and park-led communities to waterfront living and mature self-sustaining townships, each Gamuda Land development reflects a distinct approach to community building across Klang Valley.
  • Operating across Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, Australia, and the United Kingdom, Gamuda Land continues to grow its portfolio of townships, residential communities, and commercial developments.

Gamuda Land is the property development arm of Gamuda Berhad, one of Malaysia's leading engineering, infrastructure, and construction groups.

Founded in 1995 and headquartered at Menara Gamuda, PJ Trade Centre, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Gamuda Land has since built a reputation as a responsible townmaker, creating full living ecosystems rather than standalone development.

Guided by the belief that "when we get the places right, the town works", every development is shaped through masterplanning, innovative placemaking, and sustainable community building.

Today, Gamuda Land operates across Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

What Makes Gamuda Land Different From Other Property Developers? 

Gamuda Land's large-scale township masterplanning is a direct extension of the wider strengths of the Gamuda Group, combining engineering expertise, construction innovation, sustainability leadership, and regional scale.

Built on Gamuda Berhad's Engineering

Founded in 1976, Gamuda Berhad brings five decades of engineering expertise spanning infrastructure, construction, and property development across nine countries, including railways, tunnels, highways, dams, water treatment plants, and airports.

That depth of experience in conceptualising, designing, and delivering complex projects at scale shapes how Gamuda Land plans and builds its townships.

Gamuda has also expanded its collaboration with Google Cloud to bring generative AI, cloud technologies, and data-driven workflows into its engineering and construction operations.

In its townships, Gamuda Land has partnered with Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB) and Maxis to strengthen 5G infrastructure and connectivity across multiple developments, supporting smart city initiatives and future-ready communities for residents and businesses.

Malaysia's First Next-Gen Digital IBS

Gamuda Land's Next-Gen Digital Industrialised Building System (IBS) is used in approximately 90% of its landed terrace homes, combining Building Information Modelling (BIM), cloud technology, and robotic automation within a highly automated manufacturing environment.

Operating with an output capacity of up to 10,000 homes annually, or approximately 40 homes per day, the system is designed to:

  • Deliver a 40% time savings in production
  • Shorten overall construction timelines by up to 40%
  • Reduce reliance on manual foreign labour by 35%

This process-driven approach means every home is built to the same standard, bringing consistent quality and structural precision from the factory to the front door. It also means faster delivery, less construction waste, and a home built with lower embodied carbon.

Sustainability by Design

Sustainability is embedded into how Gamuda Land plans, builds, and manages its townships, guided by a long-term framework that balances environmental stewardship, community wellbeing, and responsible development.

Introduced in 2021, the Gamuda Green Plan guides this approach through the four pillars:

  • Sustainable Planning and Design for Construction
  • Our Community in Our Business
  • Environmental and Biodiversity Conservation
  • Enhancing Sustainability via Digitalisation

The framework includes measurable targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions intensity by 30% by 2025 and 45% by 2030.

Supporting these efforts on the ground is Gamuda Parks, the dedicated platform responsible for biodiversity conservation, ecosystem management, park stewardship, and community access to nature across Gamuda Land developments.

Its initiatives include biodiversity audits, Advanced Tree Planting (ATP) areas, mangrove wetlands conservation, native-species stewardship, and the Group's #OneMillionTrees programme.

Proven Regional Track Record

With more than 60,000 homes built, a 2,414-acre total landbank, and over RM100 billion in Gross Development Value (GDV), Gamuda Land's portfolio spans 10 towns, 53 boutique townships, 29 vertical communities, and 1 commercial office across Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

  • Malaysia: A foundation of 14 developments with 12 in Klang Valley, 1 in Johor, and 1 in Sabah.
  • Vietnam: Nearly two decades of continuous presence across Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hai Phong make Vietnam Gamuda Land's core international market.
  • Singapore: Fully sold and occupied urban developments such as Gem Residences and Olá demonstrate successful execution within one of Asia's most mature property markets.
  • Australia: Developments including Fareham, The Canopy, and 661 Chapel Street strengthen Gamuda Land's growing presence in Australia.
  • United Kingdom: Purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) projects in London and Glasgow expand the global portfolio alongside 75 London Wall, a Grade-A office project in the City of London.

Nature as Infrastructure: How Gamuda Land Plans Townships Differently

For Gamuda Land, nature is not an afterthought.

Rather than adding parks and green spaces after roads and buildings are mapped out, the planning process begins with an assessment of natural land conditions such as lakes, wetlands, hills, tree canopies, and existing ecosystems. These elements are then integrated into the masterplan as functional natural systems.

From providing shaded walkability to preserving biodiversity and creating everyday spaces for recreation, each natural element is part of what makes the township work.

Gamuda Land Key Townships in Klang Valley

Every Gamuda Land township has its own distinct personality, shaped by its environment, the needs of its residents, and the role it plays within the wider community.

Gamuda Cove: Nature-Led Smart City Planning

Positioned as a nature sanctuary, smart and sustainable city, Gamuda Cove demonstrates what it looks like when ecological preservation and modern convenience coexist within a single township.

Located in the Southern Klang Valley near Cyberjaya and KLIA, the 1,871-acre township sits alongside Paya Indah Discovery Wetlands, with major lifestyle destinations, such as SplashMania Waterpark and Discovery Park, anchoring the community experience.

Recognised as Malaysia's first 5-Diamond Low Carbon City, Gamuda Cove integrates mindful low-carbon infrastructure, biodiversity conservation, and Malaysia's first and only internal e-tram system. 

Gamuda Gardens: A Park-Led Family Township

Rehabilitated from an abandoned rubber plantation, Gamuda Gardens is a family township built around an active outdoor lifestyle.

Spanning 1,342 acres in Sungai Buloh North, the masterplan is built around rolling hills, five cascading lakes, and a 50-acre pet-friendly Central Park. These expansive green lungs become the social and recreational heart of everyday community life, connecting neighbourhoods through an extensive network of parks, trails, and walkable green spaces.

The township is also home to a full range of leisure attractions, including Gamuda Luge Gardens, giving families direct access to outdoor adventures, thrill rides, and attractions within the development.

twentyfive7: A Waterfront Lifestyle Township

Nestled within Kota Kemuning, twentyfive7 is an integrated waterfront township inspired by quayside living.

The 257-acre development is centred around Quayside Mall, a central park, and a waterfront promenade, where the community naturally gathers, dines, and connects.

Connected pedestrian pathways, pet-friendly spaces, and modern homes complete the township experience, bringing everyday convenience and outdoor living together within one community.

Kota Kemuning: Mature Self-Sustaining Communities

Kota Kemuning is Gamuda Land's first-ever township development, an award-winning 830-acre master-planned township in Shah Alam, Selangor.

Launched in 1995, the township established Gamuda Land's signature blueprint by integrating lush landscaping, scenic lakes, and community-centric amenities into the site's natural topography.

Centred around the prestigious Kota Permai Golf & Country Club, Kota Kemuning demonstrated how world-class lifestyle amenities and thoughtful landscape design can support long-term liveability and community growth.
