Located within the hidden side, or I would say the kampung side of Bandar Utama, there is a wave where low rise apartments are being developed among low rise kampung houses. That has always been the main challenge for the project where the experience to the project is limited by the infrastructure. Roads are narrow, the housing typologies around are untidy, but that all changed immediately when we get into the project.
It all starts from the sidewalks around the project, into the carpark, lobby, corridor, unit and facilities area. The entire experience felt almost like a resort, which immediately took me away from the external impression. This is heavily contributed by the architectural treatments around the central void area, which is very Japanese Garden inspired. The interplay between sunlight and natural materials is very tasteful.
In the unit, everything is well designed but I wished the structural elements could be muted just a bit more. Their sizes are borderline intimidating, which is weird since the project is so low in density. The only part I'm a bit clueless would be the study area in the center, which led to door direction being opened in a unconventional direction.
A common hindrance from horizontal high rise projects would be the distance to the facilities area for residents. Since different facilities are located at different blocks, the residents will need to walk and travel slightly before getting to enjoy them. However, due to the restricted building height, the views throughout the project is also limited.
Overall, a very solid project in a location that's rapidly developing.
Am I crazy or am I just the only one who thinks the kampung house view is absolutely beautiful? So gorgeous and peaceful feeling. And based on 20 years experience living in BU2 you won't find many rempits in kayu ara, just loads of foot traffic. Just go slow la.
kampung view is definitely beautiful but it's the squatter area that's an eyesore...
Thanks Sean for the review. The structure in block B is less beam and indeed very cozy to stay. ❤Quiet inside while busy amenities outside.
Wonderful architecture:)
I wanna work hard that so one day I can own this kind of home, live near city and public transport :)
The kampung village Remind me of those road in Bali when traveling into some hotel
Nice layout and spacious, bedroom flooring seems like engineered timber instead of laminated for this price range
I used to live in Kayu ara and had to endure low class drivers and rempits all the time. Good luck to buyers
Betul. Sakit kepala wooo
...very very nice layout...they used very very nice construction materials too....
The morning and evening traffic are constant nightmares
Kampung is not issue. Main issue is you have to jam at least 15 mins or more to reach main road during peak hour.
40 minutes from BU to BU main road lol.
Which part of Klang valley not jam during peak hour. Move out from PJ la😂
Kinda remind of early 2000s building, it look nostalgic.
I've spent the majority of my adult life in Malaysia here. Without a doubt, living and working in Damansara area is superb, even compared to other parts of the developed world. That being said, I've seen the development of the local region for the past 40 years and construction has not stopped at all lol. I used to see the rows of squatters along the LDP and the funny towers and towers of smoke from garbage burning the whole day everyday. I've also lived INSIDE kampung kampungs in in laws place. The kampung area today, let's just say you'll enjoy BBQ plastic every other day as well as narcissistic rempits every 8 minutes... until the end of time. It never ends, they never sleep, they breed like crazy. There are still many many syndicates hiding inside this very particular kampung as well as a gateway to all the robberies around the area. The only reason you want to spend 1.2 mil for this property is for the location as well as having the lack luster facilities.
Remember. Sleeping on a golden throne beside a public toilet, you're still sleeping beside a public toilet.
The upcoming project blocking the view however, you should explore instead of this UTAMARA. Many units have private pools that goes into the living hall leh.
PS: I just can't help but wonder about that giant ass dome tent in the middle of the kampung.
I view the upcoming project CK One East as another "golden throne", to use your analogy. Eventually that area will be full of thrones. The dome you mentioned actually houses the sales office for One East, and yes do check them out. Very luxurious and intriguing.
hi, great video. may i know why this project has a restriction on building height? but the newer CK East can be built taller.
Went to look at the One East Project last week, shared all the same feelings. The kampung setting still is my biggest barrier to moving forward with purchasing (own stay), but the low density and proximity to everything else in Damansara is great and impossible find this sort of price in those very built up areas.
Love the atypical layout and large balcony. I actually enjoy the kampung setting. I am looking for low-density as well (less 100 units). Indeed hard to find
I wonder if the house have good sound proofing because all of the huge beam and wall lol.
BU2 MENTIONED 🗣️🗣️💥
Sean do have a take onto why houses in this format are so hard to find. In particular the low rise style below 10 storey. Im so tired of living in towers. It really make u feel disconnected to earth and low key felt like living in an office building. The unit u show on the other hand was EVERYWHERE in Australia. They called it FLAT even. But in msia good lord 40 storey tower stacked on 10 storey carpark everywhere. INSANITY.
Yeah. I miss those low density low rise apartments in other cuntries. I guess it's because of the population density and cost to build the facilities and ROI of that in the major cities.
Mainly it’s due to the increasing land cost. When developers buy the land, they will need to at least make back the cost of acquisition. Another element will be town planning. When a particular area is zoned as high density, the price of land would immediately skyrocket compared to a piece of land that can only build landed homes.
Well in Malaysia, we still have lots of choices to pick from. Just that they might not always be in our range of affordability 😅
@@iherng growing up in Ampang where it next to embassy houses. I do see this kind of low density apartment everyday. Always wonder how it looks like from the inside, thanks Sean for showing this project so that I somewhat have an idea of it. And yes, as you mentioned, there're a lot of these in that area just that it's so expensiveee for a 15-20yearsold houses.😅
Kayu Ara is experiencing significant transformation and development. This transformation is part of a broader trend of urban redevelopment and modernization.
Love the effort the developer hai put in. But this can only be a self stay property but not an investment i think. With the maturity of the surrounding areas there isn't much scope for prices to go up much. But it is quite a good place to stay and the size of every room seems good.
micro-location considerations aside, ~800 psf for something so near to BU and so low density, seems attractive
The globe-shaped building at 20:26 is gorgeous! Looks soooo cooool
Just buy subsale 1.2M to 1.7M freehold five stones/ameera and drive to centrepoint for the BKT, manicure etc at centrepoint
Nice layout
very nice residence. only location not my cup of tea
32:16 valid point👍
I would value this more than 3 million, very low dense, surrounding is serene and not dirty like other damansara
Sean, is it going to be a new trend in kl and greater kl in the foreseeable future to build more low rise apartment complexes that are less than 10 stories high and on smaller plots?
Even in a high rise city like Bangkok, there are many 7 to 8 stories high condos built besides narrower roads.
Hie bro, have u done Review on Tropicana Edelweiss ? Thx
Give the same vibes as tokyo apartment
I believe every apartment around the world are low rises. I don’t understand why are we racing with Hong Kong in building towering flats
@@huzafah_ Most probably because of the value of the plot and cheaper. All types of apartments are actually a smart way to reorganise sustainable urban planning. Plus I believe with Malaysia geolocation, it is a bless for high rise building.
@@huzafah_ Tokyo got earthquake Malaysia dont has earthquake that why we can become like Hong Kong. Even now 2000 units per condo is a normal norm, 10 years back a condo with 500 units already consider as high density.
@@huzafah_ Yes we have huge land but with poor city planning bro. Big pieces of land but only few major cities for employment and leisure hence why we're squeezing every households into those cities. And apparently the market are still buying it therefore demand is there and that explain why developers are still building it. 🥲
will be better if blok A have a pedestrian bridge to the facility side at blok B
This middle of no where 😂 mostly is Kampung area and the traffic is pretty bad when heading out to damansara utama direction
I don't think it's the middle of no where lah. The project is literally one street behind Bandar Utama and one street away from Damansara Uptown. Just that the surrounding is currently still in a kampung setting.
The narrow road seems like really a disadvantage, but I can see that a bicycle can be a good alternative here, since many common places are available nearby (grocery shopping maybe still is a headache 😂)
Hi, do you mind have a visit on Emerald Hills @ Cheras, I'm planning to buy a unit there. much thanks
understand more expensive than sunway serene because of size but how come rental here same price as sunway serene?
Abit cheaper then serene imo. Must be cause competing with the landed houses in BU2 and BU10.
Come seresta n review too. Hehehe
Whos the developer?
wah more expensive than other condos in BU
Pretty but Location huhh
How is this 5 storey project allowed to be built a few ft away from existing landed houses?
Imagine if you're the owner of those houses.
Not far away (behind DJ school), you should see the high rise being constructed on a very thin piece of land right by the sungai K. Ara.
Totally mind boggling how this was approved.
0:36 What's amalgamated?
price terrace leasehold more attractive than this.... overpriced, alot more choices around the area with better access
Ketigaxxx
Good unit for renting out, but definitely not a good place for self living due to the surroundings
The speaker of the mosque are working so well ❤ 😂
just buy any BU subsales better lor hahahahaha
When going to visit Residensi Brickfields? QLASSIC 82 under PR1MA 😄
Rempit infested area. Good luck homeowner
kampung setting already 1.2-1.6 mil 🥲if well-planned urban setting...🥲🥲🥲
