Tunku Abdul Rahman Residence

This mansion is the home of Tunku Abdul Rahman (1903-1990) before he passed away. Bought by a new owner, the heritage residence is painstakingly restored to rediscover its beauty and quiet elegance. Tunku Abdul Rahman became the first Prime Minister of Malaysia in 1957. The prince of Kedah who negotiated the country’s independence, is remembered as the country’s father, Bapa Malaysia. This house, built in 1929, was a fortuitous encounter during his preparation for retirement. He later bought this house and chose to spend his last years in Penang. He named this house ‘takdir’, which means fate, after reflecting on the circumstances that made him bought this house. The road on which he lives was eventually renamed after him.
