Thank you, Taylor, for the tour and to Jeff for allowing us a view into his abode. It is lovely and looks bright and airy. I would definitely get a lot of use out of that pool!
I feel like you’d be a famous children’s show host if you ever decided to do that! You’re so fun to listen to. Thanks for your content! Moving to Malaysia soon I hope. 🤞
Oh My. Beautiful house and sizes of that house, inside even bigger. Spaces and you have your own privacy to be alone, I like it. Thanks Andrew for sharing and show us around. Cheers.
On my several biz trips to Penang Island, I used to stay at the G Hotel a happening place and used to visit Straits Quay and walk the area you showed. It was a very tranquil serene place with the light house near it. Also used to hang out at the Irish pub and enjoy musical evenings on week ends on the open area. Penang is an awesome place and very affordable if you are from the US as even your basic retirement money will go long luxurious way. That whole area in front of Gurney Plaza was going thru land reclamation 4 years back and wondering where is it now. May be you can get some updates on that since you are in Penang now. Brings back great fond memories. Thanks!
since foreigners can't buying properties over here. just make a hotel so you guys can earn and develop Life. and please we are Muslim country respect our ISLAM.
Thanks Andy, great to be back in Penang! Loved the tour of Jeff's home, and if he might be up for it, I'd love to hear a bit about why it moved to Penang and his take on living in Malaysia.
Yes, I think it's a lovely house. Yes, we love the location and will be viewing the area next month when we arrive in Penang. Perhaps Quayside condos or really anywhere around Straits Quay - down to Gurney Drive. Thank you.
People love ur vlogs and ur personality. In one hour posting, u already have thousands views.. Good job Andrew. Pls keep vlogging for such very good contents
Another new idea from Taylor and so refreshing. At least we knew how well to do people enjoy their life. I love the owner office concept. That's is home file room on finances, bills etc.
Great home tour Taylor, thank you!! You look very relaxed and ‘at home.’ Would like to see more home tours. I’m so looking forward to my upcoming trip to Penang and KL (and a few other places). 🏝️ Keep up the good work!!
OMG Andrew,my partner and I were just saying,maybe we could ask you to do a segment on Gurney Drive in Penang.We were on a short visit to Malaysia a few years ago as we went to Sepilok (Orangutan Reserve) in Sabah and a couple of days in Kuala Lumpur.We were recommended a beautiful Airbnb by the beach in Gurney Drive but had to return home,not enough time.We googled Gurney drive in Penang and we hope to visit one day. For a million dollar, the house is great,a bit close to the neigbouring house but with the indoor lift?,my parents would kill for it! Would you be showing us the surrounding areas of Gurney drive?perhaps the cafes and all......we thank you Andrew...
Gurney Drive is the place and a happening place. On my 5/6 biz trips i had the privilege of staying at the G Hotel with a room on 12th floor facing the Ocean and was an awesome experience. The paragon mall 2 blocks from G used to be another fun place to hang out, and the drive from Gurney towards Batu Feringi was the most beautiful one with fine beaches, great condos, and a lively night market..
Its a nice airy looking house. The elevator makes it livable. I like that its next to the water. Had to look up ReClaimed Land to find out its safety aspects. I would definitely tour the place when and if I'm going to Penang in the future. Thank you Taylor and to Jeff for letting us take a peek into his humble abode. Aloha from Honolulu Hawaii
Check out flooding and heat gain. Visit people in the slightly older S Quay developments close by and ask about build quality. And kiss goodbye to whatever.mobility you have as you increasingly rely on the lift😢😮
It was really fascinating, especially since we are considering relocating to Penang from the US in the future. Thank you. Next month, my husband and I will be visiting Penang. We're thinking of staying in Tanjung Tokong for four nights and then near the UNESCO Heritage Site of Georgetown for two or three nights. We would greatly appreciate your thoughts on our plan. I'm uncertain whether we should spend our entire stay in Penang right in the center of Georgetown.
Love this episode! Omg! Such beautiful house. My husband and I are looking to retire in Malaysia too. We would love to live in penang, KL and Ipoh. So no plan to buy property. Will probably be renting for up to 6 months in each place. Taylor, can I recommend you to do an episode about the different reputable company/websites to search for rental properties or for sale properties. I have no clue what website to use to search for rental properties in penang, ipoh and KL. Really like your videos, keep up the good work! 👍
THANK YOU ANDREW FOR SHARING, YOUR..BEAUTIFUL HOME...........YOU RETIRE TO PENANG, MALASIA, I'M THAI, WE LIVE IN USA FOR 55 YEARS.

ENJOY YOUR LIFE TO THE FULL IN PENANG........AGAIN THANK YOU FOR BRINGING BACK MY HAPPY MEMORY.
Nice vlog once again, keep ‘em coming! Funny to see this, we also looked at exactly these super semi detached in Tanjong Tokong in Georgetown Penang. But as much as we liked it, we decided not to leave KLCC, we rather visit penang when we feel like and live in KL, instead of the opposite way.
Beautiful home! Far too close to other houses. I'm not sure I could live in a place where other properties 'overlooked' my living space. How do others feel about that? Thanks for a great tour. 🥰
Come on, Andrew, time to move back to Penang!!! I was there last month scoping out condos and found so many beautiful places to consider. Penang is truly awesome!!!!
Reclaimed land can be found mostly in Penang, Melaka & Jb. The Dutch are the expert in doing this kinda project. I used to view how they did it in Melaka years ago.
Honestly, who would have thought that sincerity, saying it as it is can be funny! Perhaps that is the Andrew Taylor's charm, Malaysia's own American uncle.
There have a lot of list if we want to talk about Malaysia property, Johore Bharu,Kota Bharu,Kuching,Penang ,Putrajaya,petaling jaya and more..means that for the expart they have a lot of choices..
Just like Melaka, there are a number of interesting museums in Penang that can be visited such as Toy Museum, War Museum, 3D Museum, Ghost Museum etc etc.
so much is it Andy.. when they say it build on reclaimed land.. its basically a refilled using debris when they cut those mountains and hills then smash those debris into little bits.. they've been doing that for hundreds of years..
Thank you Andrew as always. Turquoise pool color never disappoints. Wondering approximately what this costs in USD, can any American just show up and buy?
Hi Taylor, we love your videos it's your video that has made our decision to move to Malaysia from the UK Can yiu please give me the details of the house as we would like yo rent there also. Thank you so much. Xxx
I love Penang curry. I am used to eat Penang curry all the time when I go to Thai restaurant. So I really want to get real penang curry tasting like in Malaysia. Enjoy Penang.
This property is built on reclaimed land and as such it is on a lease of 99 years. 1.5m USD is a bit on the high side. The property is gated and guarded, so there’s a small maintenance cost every month. The location is near to restaurants and pubs, and shops and supermarkets. It’s the location that makes it so costly. For the same price or even lower, you can get freehold property /detached house double storey in Pulau Tikus or Tanjung Bungah. I am not a property agent but I do have some knowledge of property development in Penang.
Hi Andrew, yes, you are correct. My apology for the mistake. This is a freehold property. Most of the buildings on reclaimed land are leasehold. This one developed by E&O company is freehold. It’s a bit uncommon I would say but you are right it’s freehold. Thanks for the wonderful video
@@andrewtaylor4558not sure why it cost so much. May be just big and location. The interior is just usual. Anyway, welcome to Malayasia. As long as u like it, it does not matter how I think
Used to cycle.past this development when I lived in Penang. Almost completely empty then 6 years ago...ditto now. Why? Apart from.being prime candidates.for flooding as catastrophic climate changes kicks in even more rapidly, your neighbours will see and hear everything you do. And guess what? Vice versa😂. So you will enjoy the screaming yelling neighbours kids in their pool, their caged pedigree dog/s left alone all day with only the maid for company. A/c will be cranked to max because all those huge windows mean you're effectively living in an oven and the reflected heat from the surrounding white buildings will make the microclimate even more toasty. And as for resale value? Only westerners are OK with pre owned homes and hardly any of them will buy here or wish to invest. Wealthy Chinese want new unused places. Plus the quality of the builds in the Straits Quay developments is not great as friends renting a couple of streets away found out. Looking forward to an update in a year or two 😊

How much was the rent on this house?
I loved Penang. Was there 5 years ago. Its more relaxing than KL. it has it all. City. Diversity. beach and forest.
Totally agree!

@@teatree6228 Still more affordable than KL 😊

Can you please do an update vlog on where the land reclamation and new park build is in front of Gurney Plaza. Thank you Sir.
Reclaimed land can be found mostly in Penang, Melaka & Jb.
The Dutch are the expert in doing this kinda project. I used to view how they did it in Melaka years ago.
Yes!
Nice home🎉🎉❤❤

Awwww, thanks ☺️
Lovely
you both looked like twins 😅or is my eyes playing tricks on me!
😂 We do look like brothers!
Beautiful home but far two big for me and i would not like people looking in to my home a country setting for me sending love from Australia ❤
Yes a bit more privacy would be nice. 🤗
Yes, I agree.. nice interior but too close to neighbours.
Jesselton Heights would be a greener place to stay except that it has no sea view 😂
Or any other place in Tanjung Bungah or Batu Feringgi would be more seclusive
The bedroom is like a studio
Hey man.. Sihat selalu..
Thank you 🙏
Hi Andrew🤗❣
Soon will be at KL, Penang etc .....
Dang....what a house!
😂
Andrew balik kampung to Penang.
I’m in Penang RIGHT NOW!
I’m back in KL! 😂
There have a lot of list if we want to talk about Malaysia property, Johore Bharu,Kota Bharu,Kuching,Penang ,Putrajaya,petaling jaya and more..means that for the expart they have a lot of choices..
seem like to stay at peacefully and happy life..
I would assume the property cost around 6-7 million ringgit just over 1.5 million usd..the same type of house maybe cost more in Kuala Lumpur
Just like Melaka, there are a number of interesting museums in Penang that can be visited such as Toy Museum, War Museum, 3D Museum, Ghost Museum etc etc.
Absolutely!
Gorgeous property but the furniture needs a complete overhaul
Yep
so much is it Andy.. when they say it build on reclaimed land.. its basically a refilled using debris when they cut those mountains and hills then smash those debris into little bits.. they've been doing that for hundreds of years..
Yep
That's not true, it's made using sea sand itself
imposing. we couldn't hope such spacious interiors in Tokyo :\
Hi Taylor, that is a beautiful property. How much are comparable properties selling for?
Depends, above rm 5 million, I think.
Thank you Andrew as always. Turquoise pool color never disappoints. Wondering approximately what this costs in USD, can any American just show up and buy?
Under 2 million dollars. Anyone can buy property in Malaysia, I think.
😂😂😂 If you have $£€ to burn buy here

Over rm 12,000

Can I know what is the name of this estate? It is simply AWESOME.
Seri Tanjung Pinang
I wanted to move to Malaysia but could not take the high humidity
You get used to it.

Get educated with the term "reclaimed land" because it's pretty prevalent throughout Malaysia and Singapore.
I know the term, I just don’t think it is accurate. 😂
its on reclaim land, meaning, few years ago, it was sea
Yep

okay. let's get to the straight! How much $$$ do I need?
About 1.5 million US
You can make lots of money selling houses

Is this in the Tanjong Tokong area?
Yes 😊
