Facing the Penang Bridge & Beside Mutiara LRT
“Our Penang team visited the site recently. For Type B (1001 sqft), we highly recommend the units facing the First Penang Bridge. The morning sunrise over the water is spectacular and will likely hold higher resale value than the hill-facing units.” Inspired by the timeless presence of a lighthouse, This Service Apartment stands tall at 56 storeys, offering 671 exclusive freehold service apartments. Developed by Exsim, this architectural masterpiece combines contemporary design with functionality — a beacon of comfort, connectivity, and sophistication amidst Penang’s vibrant growth corridor.

🔑 Key Facilities Highlights Summary
Why Our Penang Team Recommends The Lighthauz
While many developments focus on “luxury,” our Penang team has identified The Lighthauz as a top-tier investment and own-stay project based on three factors you won’t find in the standard developer brochure:
1. The “Pickleball Advantage”
As an active pickleball player myself, I was thrilled to see that Exsim has included dedicated Pickleball Courts on the Level 9 podium. Most new projects in Penang are still stuck with just badminton or tennis. For active professionals and families, this is a major social “plus” that will make The Lighthauz a more vibrant community compared to older condos in the area.
2. The “E-Gate” Walkability
We’ve done the walkthrough—The Lighthauz is literally opposite E-Gate. Our team loves the “Daily Convenience” factor here. You can walk to Lotus’s (Tesco) for groceries or grab a morning coffee at the Seaside Starbucks in under 5 minutes. In a high-traffic area like Gelugor, being able to walk to dinner or the gym at Udini Square is a massive luxury.
3. Real-Time LRT Progress (March 2026 Update)
The Mutiara Line LRT is no longer just a “proposal.” As of March 2026, the project is officially in the Public Inspection phase (running until May 2024), and construction has already begun near George Town and the Airport. The Lighthauz is positioned perfectly near the proposed station, ensuring that your investment is “future-proofed” before the rail line is completed in 2031.
4. The “Bridge Entry” Strategy
If you work on the Mainland but want to live on the Island, our team recommends The Lighthauz for its strategic u-turn access. Unlike Jelutong projects where you often get stuck in morning bridge traffic, the exit from Gelugor onto the First Penang Bridge is significantly smoother, saving you roughly 10–15 minutes on your daily commute.
