If you are looking for low density with educated tenants, this is the right spot.
It is very convenient in terms of grocery and food. Short walk away from the stay you will see a mini business park with cafe and restaurants.
There's a small Monday night market right beside the road.
And NSK is just a short distance away.
Oh ya, there is a mcDonald in Shell Petrol station! It is located slightly after NSK.
