| description | Focusing on a world class living environment, a good quality residential area can be highlighted as an important issue in
creating a sustainable living environment. However, limited green spaces within the proximity of residential properties are
not supporting the landscape space and are not conducive to living space. The aim of the paper is to investigate the impact
of landscape design on house prices and values in residential development particularly in urban areas. The paper
employed quantitative approaches which include i) a questionnaire survey; and ii) an observation. This empirical study is
based on the findings of case studies conducted in several residential areas in Klang Valley. The findings show that the
residents have very clear ideas on how much green space is really important in residential areas in order to create a
sustainable residential environment. Despite the absence of public actions in terms of providing information, encouraging
participations in the survey and promoting awareness of those interviewed have shown considerable interest in promoting
landscape design to be applied in residential development. The perceptions of the quality and quantity of landscape
designs in residential areas especially in Klang Valley can be further researched for future study. |
