1-2BR Penthouses, Studios and Villas near Melasti

Lease and ownership terms:

• 80-year leasehold with an extension option, longer than the 25 to 30-year structures standard across most of the Bukit;

• Pink-zoned land, cleared for short-term rental use;

• Primary-market entry from $149,600, off-plan with construction underway.

Location and walkability:

• Karang Pandawa road, Ungasan, on the inland side of the Melasti-Karma stretch;

• 7-min drive to Green Bowl Beach, 9 min to Pandawa Beach, 15 min to Melasti Beach;

• 3.2 km to the nearest beach - this is a drive-to-coast address, not walk-to-coast.

Yield, ROI and rental income:

• 34.6 m² studio at $149,600 - generates up to $31,100 a year in rental income (20.8% projected ROI, 4.8-year payback);

• 109 m² 2BR penthouse at $371,700 - projected rental income of $55,400 a year (14.9% ROI, 6.7-year payback);

• Over sixteen studio payback cycles sit inside the 80-year lease horizon;

• Yield and payback figures are pre-tax projections; actual returns depend on occupancy and prevailing nightly rates.

Who this fits:

• Investors wanting a long tenure on the Bukit without the heritage-asset price band;

• Studio buyers chasing the sub-$150,000 entry point with short-let rights built in;

• Penthouse buyers who want ocean-view inventory under a Pink zone.

Buyers wanting walk-to-beach access should look closer to the Melasti cliff line.
