I just went to take a look on Sun. You can reach it via the back road.

It is very well done. Club house is nice with 30m swimming pool.

Managed to sneak into one of the completed showhouses. I would say I am impressed.

I’ve made some comparisons between Kinrara Residence (KR) in Kinrara and Mah Sing’s Garden Residence (GR) in Cyberjaya:

Land:
GR’s Freehold is better than KR’s Leasehold.

Location:
KR’s location in Puchong is generally better than GR in Cyberjaya in terms of accessibility, distance to KL and nearby towns such as PJ, Subang, Old Klang Road and Cheras. KR also has more commercial activities within close distance. Nonetheless, it’s subjected to where you work and where your family and friends are located. I think this is the major reason that GR is priced slightly lower than KR.

Facilities:
Both are gated, guarded with clubhouse facilities.

Design & Finishes:
It really depends on individual’s preference.

2-Storey Semi D
To me, the overall built up size (about 3100sf) and layouts for 2-storey Semi D at both developments are almost the same. However, I feel that GR’s living & dining area are more spacious as the maid’s room & guestroom are pushed further to the back, resulting in smaller room sizes. Besides, the space underneath the staircase is empty in GR while KR has a storeroom there. On 1st floor, similarly, GR’s family room is more spacious as the two bedrooms are smaller in size. Therefore overall GR gives a better sense of luxury and space, however KR’s design with bigger room space may be more practical. As for finishes, the only difference I notice is GR uses a better quality white colour powder coated aluminium window & sliding door frames while KR uses cheaper dark brown colour anodised aluminium frames. I think we should demand Mah Sing to use powder coated frames as it is indicated on the brochure’s design model.

3-Storey Semi D
Personally, I think GR’s 3-storey design is definitely much better than KR’s even though their built up is smaller at only 3683sf vs KR’s built up of about 4118sf. GR is more practical as it has 5 bedrooms altogether: 1 guestroom on GF, 3 bedrooms on first floor, and 1 master bedroom on 2nd floor. KR only has 4 bedrooms: 1 guestroom on GF, 2 bedrooms on 1st floor & 1 master bedroom on 2nd floor. The reason is the bedroom space on 1st floor is wasted and used as double volume headroom for the living space downstairs. Personally I don’t like double volume ceiling because of maintenance and sustainability issues highlighted below:
1. You can’t even change the light bulb of the chandelier or special lighting you decide to install.
2. You can’t install ceiling fan as it’s way too high.
3. It wastes tremendous amount of energy on air-conditioning, therefore it’s not sustainable at all. Fourthly,
4. The living room shares the same acoustic space with the family room, noise between the two areas become a problem.
5. The only benefit is that you get a luxurious feeling of space when you have parties showing off your house to your friends.
I don’t know if the columns and walls can structurally take the load if one decides to put a slab to cover the double volume space and convert it into a room. I think it’s not an easy renovation especially if you need a toilet in there. Nevertheless, I’d like to reiterate that the above is just my personal opinion.

Other concerns:
Overall Kinrara Residence is a good high end development. However I feel that the materials provided are not so high end. For example,

1. Aluminium frames are brown colour anodised frame but not powder coated. The glass panels are generally smaller than those provided in the Garden Residence.
2. Architrave not provided around door frames
3. No tempered glass shower screen provided
4. Rain shower is good, but need to provide hand shower to clean the backside too!
5. Timber flooring uses narrow strip, prefer to use wider strips
6. Not sure whether Air Cond points are provided?
7. Not sure if the solar powered heater is provided?

I suggest the purchasers go and make some noise, hopefully Mah Sing can improve on the above.

Added on March 16, 2011, 1:07 amI supported for the above comment and we dont expect TMS to provide "cheapo" product. We are not buying low cost property.

We expect TMS to provide quality finishing and product as on par to YTL. Hope TMS will keep up to their reputation.

We purchased the Kinrara Residence because of TMS, hope TMS will provide us the value from our hard earn $$$..........

I dun agree, I bought early for 888K, now 968K - 988K after show house ready, overall we dare to bet with TMS as she is quite proven in theirs quality, Garden Residence is very convincing, I just not satisfy with the main door, the rest like ceiling height, finishing, lock-set, sanitary items etc are good..some more if the show house really turn out terrible, I can just cancel the deal losing 1K, m 90% satisfy

Not so jialat as you mention, only the main door looks cheap, the rest are ok, IMO in Puchong, TMS' product is still a class obove I&P and IOI, better than Lake Edge quality when I compare...Conquas works
