半獨立住宅的開發概念，作為一種人類聚落的模式其實已經存在數個世紀。
而所謂的「群聚式住宅開發」，也被稱為「保育型社區開發」（Conservation Subdivisions），是在有限的土地上，將住宅集中配置於特定區塊。這種做法的核心目的是減少整體開發面積，騰出更多的開放空間作為休憩用途，不僅提升整體居住品質，也有助於改善環境，同時保留與傳統分區開發相同數量的住宅單位。這樣的設計思維，正體現了整體Bandar Cemerlang城市總體規劃的理念: 房子像花園般聚集在一起。
The Concept Of Semi-Detached Housing Development As A Pattern Of Human Settlement Has Been Around For Centuries. Cluster Housing Development, Also Referred To As “Conservation Subdivisions,” Involves The Grouping Of Residential Structures In A Subdivision On A Portion Of The Available Land. The Intent Is To Develop Less Total Land Area To Provide More Open Space For Recreation, Thus Enhancing The Overall Living Quality And Improving The Environment While Allowing The Same Number Of Total Housing Units As It Would Have Been Allowed For A Conventional Subdivision. This Will Reflect The Overall Bandar Cemerlang’s Masterplan Mindset. The Houses Gather Like A Garden.
