Off Jalan Pintas Rawang, Templer, Rawang, Selangor
Botanica Hills by Stellar Trinity Sdn Bhd is a low-density landed estate: 231 homes spread over 55.72 acres of rolling land beside the Taman Eko Rimba Templer forest, planned around a central park of about 2.5 acres. There are three house designs. Types A and B are two-storey link homes of 1,658 to 1,865 sq ft, and Type A1 adds a lower ground floor, giving 2,382 to 2,596 sq ft. Every layout has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, and the end and corner lots are larger than the intermediate units. Construction is estimated at 36 months from the SPA date, with completion expected in 2028, and there is no monthly maintenance fee. It suits families who want a freehold house near Rawang and drive most days; it is less suited to anyone who needs a train station within walking distance. Selangor opens only strata property to foreign buyers, so these individual-title homes are for Malaysian buyers.
Type B Intermediate | 1,658 sq.ft. | 4 Bedroom Type A Intermediate | 1,660 sq.ft. | 4 Bedroom Type B End / Corner | 1,863 sq.ft. | 4 Bedroom Type A End / Corner | 1,865 sq.ft. | 4 Bedroom Type A1 Intermediate | 2,382 sq.ft. | 4 Bedroom Type A1 End / Corner | 2,596 sq.ft. | 4 Bedroom
What You Get at Botanica Hills
A freehold four-bedroom house on a hillside estate, with a central park, sports courts and no monthly maintenance fee.
Freehold, Individual Title
Each home is freehold on its own individual title, so you own the land your house stands on. There is no monthly maintenance fee to budget for, only the usual quit rent and assessment.
Four Bedrooms in Every Home
All nine layouts have four bedrooms and three bathrooms. The two-storey homes run from 1,658 to 1,865 sq ft, and the three-storey Type A1 from 2,382 to 2,596 sq ft.
A 2.5-Acre Central Park
The estate is laid out around a central park of about 2.5 acres, with a children's playground, a parcourse and a jogging and cycling track for evening walks with the family.
Courts, Surau and Community Hall
Residents get a basketball court and a pickleball court, a surau and a community hall that can also serve as a kindergarten, with a guard house at the entrance.
Next to the Rawang Bypass
The site is off Jalan Pintas Rawang, beside the Rawang Bypass. The LATAR Highway, the North-South Expressway and Federal Route 1 are the other main roads you will use.
231 Homes on 55.72 Acres
Spreading 231 homes over 55.72 acres keeps the estate quiet and low in density. The houses follow the slope of the land, which is why Type A1 gains a lower ground floor.
Botanica Hills Layout Plans
Nine layouts in three designs, all with four bedrooms and three bathrooms: two-storey Types A and B from 1,658 to 1,865 sq ft, and the three-storey Type A1 from 2,382 to 2,596 sq ft.

Holding Botanica Hills month to month
For the starting-price unit of Botanica Hills, at RM802,000, a 90% loan of RM721,800 repaid over 35 years at 4% a year, my example rate, costs about RM3,196 a month. Botanica Hills has no service charge, so the instalment is the whole monthly bill until the council's assessment tax and the yearly quit rent are added.
Tell me which unit you are considering on WhatsApp, +60 17-880 2526, and I will work it out for that unit.

The bank's formula is monthly payment = P × r ÷ [1 − (1 + r)−n]. P is the amount borrowed, r is the yearly rate ÷ 12, and n is the number of monthly payments: 420 over 35 years.
Most new home loans float. The rate is the Standardised Base Rate (SBR) plus a spread the bank sets for you, and the SBR tracks the Overnight Policy Rate, which Bank Negara has held at 2.75% from 9 July 2025. At 4.5% instead of 4%, that RM721,800 loan costs about RM220 more a month, and a 30-year term instead of 35 adds about RM250. If this would be your third or later home loan, the bank can lend at most 70% of the property's value.
