PLANTATION HOUSE
This double story house is originally from a plantation area on Penang Island. The first house was built by Malays in 1900. In 1920 they sold the house to a Chinese Hakka family who then built a house in front in their own style. Both houses were linked by an internal courtyard.
As the surrounding area was quite poor, it was known as "Tua Chua", meaning the big house. The owners were the Cheong family who were both and durian farmers. These two houses have now been coverted into 6 suites
