Bandar IOI Segamat is developed by one of Malaysia’s most well-known developers, which is also the leading developer in the district. As its name suggests, the township is in Segamat, Johor – just 7km from the Segamat town centre.
The township has been in existence since 1995 and targets to be fully developed by 2020 with around 25,000 residents. Consequently, it is considerably matured, with a wide selection of residential neighbourhoods and basic amenities.
Existing projects within Bandar IOI Segamat include the Astana double-storey semi-detached homes, Pesona and Alicia single-storey terrace homes, the low-medium cost Tiara 3 double-storey terrace homes, and the Victory 2-storey shop offices. Purchasers and investors also can consider the upcoming Lavenda 1.5-storey terrace homes, which have 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
While the township of Bandar IOI Segamat is not considered extremely high-end, it is well landscaped with greenery, and has a peaceful environment conducive for families. The family-friendly environment is strengthened with the many schools nearby, such as SMK Bandar Putra, SMKA Segamat, SM Teknik Segamat, Kolej Komuniti Segamat, and SMK Dato’ Bentara Dalam.
From Bandar IOI Segamat, residents can easily access Jalan Segamat, part of the Federal Route 1 running through the western side of Peninsular Malaysia. Driving along this main road will lead to the town centre of Segamat in less than 20 minutes with normal traffic.
This is where you’ll find amenities like F&B outlets, banks and the 1 Segamat Shopping Complex that comes with a Lotus Five Star cinema. Segamat’s KTM station, governmental buildings and more educational facilities like a nursing college and Chinese-medium school are situated in the town centre as well. In the area there is also the Hospital Segamat, founded in 1995 around the same time Bandar IOI Segamat was launched.
Via Jalan Segamat and Jalan Sultan, also known as the Federal Route 23 that leads off Jalan Segamat, Bandar IOI Segamat’s residents can get to other parts of Johor like Muar, Tangkak, Yong Peng, Batu Pahat, in addition to other states like Melaka. The Tun Razak Highway (Segamat-Kuantan Highway), which is also connected to Jalan Segamat, travels to Kuantan and the eastern states of Peninsular Malaysia.
On the whole, Bandar IOI Segamat is a good place to consider if you’re looking for a cost-effective and well-connected location in the Segamat district.
