wowwwwwwwwwww

this property will be launched in June 2010

sure going to be expensive. at least 550k my estimate

I think 1 million ++ is more like it.

smallest unit 850sqft... dun think cheapest will hit 1 mil.. maybe RM1k/sqft

1 million have many choices in mont kiara already

Wow, looks like a mountain. If swimming pool like that maintenance fee is going to be super expensive RM1K+

cool! looks veri natural

its no doubt unique but beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder though. to me, it looks kinda messy n reminds me of the hanging gardens of babylon...haha

Things always look good in artist impression one la.. practical wise, better check where its located... NOT MK lo... summore just beside highway...

does it look abit messy....

Not messy but art of architecture I like the concept.

Looks very natural to me.
Different people will have different opinion on ICON.

End of the day i believe it will sell very well. 1 of a kind

WOW! that's my 1st impression..!

look like hills

The landscape and interior is superb too....

really nice. love this design.

will go for it for own stay when I have the money later.

True, a piece of architecture works of Repetitive-may-not-be-boring type..

U won't be surprise if u see all the box is precast off-site and stack over....

just my guess...

my estimation is 1mil + judging from its unique concept + location,,,, even tropicana grande in tropicana that could not compare to this in terms of looks are fetching 1.5 mil the minimum.

but trop grande's smallest unit is of 2700sqf

Bro... smallest unit 850sqft... 1 mil can make it or not, its breaching new high record in MK.. (opps... its not even in MK)

ok i reduce my bet, near 1 mil ?

side view, mont kiara there all slope area,,,i got money oso dont wan buy maybe for renting it out ony hahah

Yup, you are right. It's not in MK , more like segambut. and it is right next to the highway. I sincerely don't think it can fetch RM1k per sq ft , maybe RM500 for its unique design.

WOW!!!! Great stuff, look like stack boxes only, dunno whether will fall or not..hehe

Now you're really living in hometree.

RM500 too cheap for MK darr...d'sara perdana also can fetch RM350psf liao...rm1k psf looks more likely..

i think its got a hate-it or love-it design...

for me, looks too cramped up...and the inner units can 'see' outer units & vice-versa...no privacy...

ohh..realistically, dun even trust the 'artist impression'

The development offers 300 partially or fully-furnished units on 2.57 acres of freehold land. The units range in size from 850 to 1,800 sq ft, to complement the existing high-rise offerings of larger units, said Teh. The Icon Residence’s indicative pricing is between RM750 to RM900 psf.


http://www.theedgeproperty.com/news-a-view...gistrants-.html

the swimming look like a sea to me..

singapore got this kind or design? or any other country have? just curious

Penang oso got - The Icon

the asking price is RM750/ sq ft. smallest size is around 753sq ft to 2000 sqf. Some units are duplex....

Wow,with that price like living next to KLCC

anyone know how much is the management fee?

With pricing between RM750 to RM900 psf, how much do you think the rental will be? Roughly how much the rental per unit in that area, ie Changkat Kiara?

rental should be minumum at least rm3,500 to rm4,000 if want to break even.

should follow solaris dutamas service or tiffany izen studios.

The location sucks big time ........directly facing the highway!!!

What will be the current selling price and rental for property at solaris dutamas service and tiffany izen studios?



This post has been edited by Chung80: Apr 30 2010, 10:51 PM

solaris dutamas got so many types of sizes.
agent say studios at tiffany rm3.5k last i checked
check at iproperty

perhaps i dont know how to appreciate the art, i feel like the building looks like full of bush because has not been taken care for a long time

Thanks airline for your advices.

Revised from earlier design

ICON RESIDENCE, MONT' KIARA

As advertised by Mah Sing Group Bhd

Anyway! a nice one

anyone knows who's the architect?

starting soon...


According to an unnamed source, the preview for this property:
Date: 16-18 July 10
Time: 10am - 6pm
Venue: Sime Darby Convention Centre

Anyone knows about the launching price?

preview can book?

i think will be ard rm800psf-900.

quite misleading to say it's MK when it's located in dutamas/segambut.....

i also think it looks like the hanging gardens of babylon!

i love the concepts but how much do you all think...

The concept is awesome and refreshing, but im sure its gonna be quite expensive.

most probably RM1200psf and above.

I guess concept enables people to pay way above market rate? Look at Desa Parkcity, its in Kepong (Kepong!). No one expected it to do so well

can ar?? pavilion residences also ard 1300psf "only"

one of a kind interesting concept.
say 1000sf unit "only" 1.2million

Can check out thier latest scale model & information in Icon Jln Tun Razak Office now. Asking price from 950psf to 1200psf.

just to let u know on my way back to hartamas. dutamas road jam teruk.
those who want to buy can take note. Haha
also this area is not mont kiara. is dutamas.
they should rename it icon residence @dutamas.

This post has been edited by airline: Jul 12 2010, 07:11 PM

really don't think ur estimate will happen at launch lor. 1.2psf is too far-fetched for this area now.

some more like someone just reported, the Icon office @ jln tun razak also 1.2kpsf wor

1000sf for 1.2mil who wanna stay in dutamas ar

Mah Sing previews Icon Residence Mont'Kiara
By Wong King Wai of theedgeproperty.com
Wednesday, 14 July 2010 18:24


KUALA LUMPUR: Mah Sing Properties is expected to officially launch its latest project, Icon Residence Mont'Kiara, within two to three months, said Mah Sing Properties chief operations officer Teh Heng Chong on Wednesday, July 14.

Before the launch, however, Mah Sing would hold a preview for interested buyers of Icon Residence at the Sime Darby Convention Centre from Friday, July 16 to Sunday, July 18.

"The preview is only for registered applicants for the time being," Teh said.

The project currently has 6,000 registered applicants, of whom about 20% to 30% are foreigners.


Icon Residence Mont'Kiara is located close to Matrade Center and Solaris Mont'Kiara, which is off Jalan Duta in Kuala Lumpur.

The development's modular design is inspired by Santorini in Greece, while the landscape and water features are inspired by the country's Mediterranean feel.

"We are creating a collectors' item for those who like fine things," Teh said on the project's niche market. "The buyer of this development is sophisticated and well-travelled."

Icon Residence Mont' Kiara sits on 2.57 acres of freehold land, and has a gross development value (GDV) of RM298 million.

It has three towers - namely Icon 1, 2 and 3 -- which are 26-, 28- and 36-storeys high respectively, with each floor housing two to six units. All are corner units with views of either Kuala Lumpur or Mont'Kiara.

In total there are 260 units, of which 78 units are in Icon 1; 73 units in Icon 2; and 109 units in Icon 3. The unit sizes range from 875 sq ft to 2,697 sq ft, with a starting price of RM956,800. On average, the psf price is between RM1,100 and RM1,200. Fifty units in Icon 3 come with private lift lobbies.

Among the units to be sold are six duplex penthouses that range from 4,200 sq ft to 4,436 sq ft, and are priced from RM5.35 million. These units come with private swimming pools.

All units come with kitchen cabinets, wardrobes, air-conditioners, fridge, dishwasher, washing machine-cum-dryer, stove and hood.

The recreational area is on the seventh floor and the development also has roof-top gardens atop each tower. The development has 648 carpark bays.

Among the green design features include rain-water harvesting, energy-saving lights, low VOC paints and automated waste disposal system, in which all waste is collected to a central area for pick up and disposal.

"I believe this is the first development in Mont'Kiara with such a disposal system," said Teh.

In previous artist impressions, the Icon Residence Mont'Kiara featured a wide array of water features and gardens, but they have now been scaled down. "This has been toned down for easy maintenance," Teh said.

Construction is due to start in 4Q2010 and will be completed in three years' time.

Seems like a really high psf price....Zehn pantai is selling for lower than 1200 PSF on the secondary market....

Just came back from there.

Icon 1, 80% booked.
Icon 2, 20-30% booked.
Icon 3, opened few floors only, 10% booked.

Icon 1 price psf is around 8-10% cheaper than Icon 2. Strange.
For 10th floor, 1164sft, 2 rooms, 2 bath, no balcony, facing school, inner corner unit, Price is RM1,205k.
(For similar unit, diff design, similar size, Icon 2 is selling at RM1.3mil)

Oh, for time being, early bird discount of RM65k per unit regardless of size.

Installment only start upon completion by 4 appointed banks which rate is at BLR -1.9

For booking, RM30k is required upon signing and balance to be paid during S&P which is estimated to be in Aug/Sept.

They estimate rental to be around RM4.50 per sft which, a 1164sft unit will fetch around RM5,200.
Maintenance - First year free and subsequent is at RM0.35 (RM407 per month).
It is freehold.
1 side facing high tension cables but they assured the Naza/Government project which is just oppositethe road will convert it to underground.

Other guesstimate new buildings opposite the Icon. (according to them)
1. Trade & Convention Centre
2. 5 Star Hotels
3. High end office buildings
4. MRT station

Slightly off of this Icon, they say Sunrise will build a 3 blocks highrise super expensive condo. (next to Matrade).

In front of Icon, there is an empty piece of land, they seem to be reluctant to talk about it but the way they answer it, should be another high rise condo coming up.

So... what you think? Worth the money?

Points to ponder
1. Low downpayment since they absorb RM65k from the 10% deposit.
2. 3 yrs completion only start paying, so, potential property value increased around the area or at least maintain same price. So, if by 3 years time and financially not stable, you give up and lose few thousand on stamp duty?


So... danger or not?

YES... three awesome blocks. The design will make you wow. If I'm not mistaken codenamed "Solaris On The Park @ Dutamas".

Any show units?

any buyers who booked units here at preview

the media reported over-expectation crowd at the preview.... hahahaha

Despite the critics, I think this development has long term potential.

i understand the project is quite near to the high tension cable based on my experience driving to work via DUKE almost every other day.. anyone could confirm on this?

the concept, design and everything is amazing and beautiful and it is really one of a kind and attractive. but somehow, i have NO confidence on the DEVELOPER.

Sales status: More than 70% sold out for Icon Tower 1

hey patchay taukeh blogger don't like this project leh

why lah so negative about this project??

cause they price it at future price.
maybe people masuk at rm700-rm800 per sq feet

any update?

There was a booth in iProperty exhibition few months, if not mistaken it is going for RM800++ per sf !

Construction start?

An overpriced development by a developer with a lousy track record (Chinaman attitude).

The location is on a cheap piece of land in Mukim Segambut surrounded by high tension cables but they try to bank in on the proximity to Mont Kiara. I guess lots of ppl got suckered by the nice design etc.

i was told by the TMS guy that the units now price at RM1200psf....sale status unknown, tower 3 is open for booking too now. show unit is being built on site.

Started.........

showroom going to complete soon. near my place

yea i saw the construction of showhouse is ongoing, seems like almost finish , and they put on a giant poster and put the spotlight on it during night......saw it when on my way home back just nearby

heard about this land sit on the land own by majlis agama WP. the deal is that the developer get 3/4 of the land and in return built them the MOSQUE(not surau) in future on the remaining 1/4 land...

TMS really ambitious

Please push higher.. I need mk condo price to go higher. Many places already selling at mk pricing.

yeah

old condo in MK (mostly Sunrise brand) generally are offering for sale at 450psf to 550psf

newly completed one from Rm600psf to as high as RM800psf

new launches ---- kekekek 1,000psf wow wow wow...

Units less than 1,500sf and less than 1.0 mil are the choices for investors.

Added on July 13, 2011, 2:41 pmbetween, I think investors will look back to KLCC and also bangsar hunting for good deals.

show unit up..

where ur unit? i also live somewhere nearby there...

dun underestimate this area....many old and lousy area like cheras maluri also price tag to at least 700psf above oledy...this area is not consider old place, and it's near to mont kiara and sri hartamas....living environment consider very well, or else our king also wont built his new palace at here..somemore this place so near to KL center....

yeah,making my way to work and back at jalan duta jam like shit everyday since then,all thanks to him want a new home.

anyway,yesterday i went to the icon residence show gallery to take a look,apparently it is not fully completed yet,as it was still until some cosmetic renovation,but they already open for booking,looks desperate for me.and the price, starts from 900k++ - 8mil++ (max),ambitious enough,hmm ok.i personally like the 1 bedroom suite which is about 1400sq feet.

oh ya,for those who asking bout the high tension cable nearby,yes,it is just across the road and there is your cable.

Sales very slow from the board.

ya,jalan duta jam,from the stretch after hentian duta until kl sentral there,usually heavy volume both side.

went to have a look yesterday..
min price selling at ard 1mil for 1bed rooms...
1.25mil for 2bed rooms.. they advise the pontential 1malaysia tower will build near to this area as well..

for me, i still going for MK instead of this...

May God bless them ...

The future mrt located opposite this condo? From their video clip
