Press Release: TuJu @ KL Duta North – Configurable Homes With Direct Access To City & Highways – Development designed with community at its heart
Harmonious living that’s child-safe, senior-friendly and EV-ready is the future property development direction or “Hala TuJu”, according to the planners of Tuju @ KL Duta North, the latest offering in this neighbourhood.
With its 41-storey twin towers set to dominate the Duta North skyline, this upcoming project will be a trailblazer with 932 configurable, convenient and comfortable homes.
Developed by Distinctive World Sdn Bhd, a joint-venture between Distinctive Capital Sdn Bhd and Eccaz Sdn Bhd, the project is strategically located with direct access to the city through Jalan Kuching and to major highways like the Duke Highway, PLUS Highway, SPRINT Highway, New Klang Valley Expressway, Damansara Link and Penchala Link.

CEO and Executive Director Lim Ech Chan explained that TuJu @ KL Duta North is the culmination of meticulous planning and design to meet the needs and desires of today’s modern generation while taking care of traditional filial needs.
“When we sat down to design these homes, we already knew accessibility to the city was a given with our direct access to Jalan Kuching and to all the highways around here. Our designers set out to create homes where people can live in harmony.
“So, we begin with the family. To make multi-generational living possible and enjoyable, we provide inter-connectable units and dual-key units.
“We try to meet almost every modern home buyer’s desire, so our layout is designed to be configurable. The result is we have 10 options for people to choose from. Not many developers can offer that kind of flexibility.
“Further, even our basic units can be configured into three rooms from the standard two rooms. Conversely, for those who prefer bigger rooms, our three-roomed units can be configured into two rooms,” he explained.
Lim added: “TuJu @ KL Duta North was envisioned to rejuvenate the surrounding Segambut area where Tan Chong Bhd’s Nissan assembly plant was once the industrial landmark. TuJu is set to harmonise and uplift the development trend in this area as we straddle the Duta-Segambut zone”.
Executive Director Monica Lai stressed that harmonious living is a cornerstone of the design intent. Hence the project boasts of over 50 facilities and we have taken care to ensure the facilities are child-safe and senior-friendly.
TuJu is EV-ready with electric vehicle infrastructure already in the design brief to promote sustainability. “Our car parks will be EV-ready; owners may apply for their own EV wall boxes subject to the usual terms and approval,” Monica said.
Monica highlighted the senior-friendly features of certain units which are interconnectable to regular units to enable multi-generational living in harmony.
“We also offer disabled-friendly units with dedicated facilities like wheelchair-accessible bathrooms and even panic buttons,” she added. There will be panic buttons in common areas and car parks for added security.
