soft launch started.
20 units sold.
price at RM2 million onwards.

worth investing?

give more info lah...

2mil for what? link house, bungalows?

bro, jz receive news only.
not yet been to the office yet.

RM2million is semi-d

the entire bukit cermin will be converted into a high end residential enclave....the entire project comprises of 300+ unit of semi-D and Bungalow...3-4 condominium project, 1 international school (Kingsley) and a private club (mainly for the semi-D and Bungalow owners and perhaps will be share by the international school as well (In fact, The Glades by Sime Darby already mentioned that international school)

Currently only launching 50 units of semi-D...about 20+ being booked. Min price is about 2.2mil, BIDS, free SPA, Loan agreement, MOT.

Minimum plot size of semi-D is about 45x90...design and layout are very different from one house to another.....3, 3.5 or 4 storey. This is like buying the land and also buying the house, not sure if 1 SPA or 2 SPA will need to be signed.

Decent quality material for semi-D, marble flooring, engineered timber flooring, solar heat, alarm system, rain harvesting system, etc.

All the units are equipped with a small lift (4 pax), dont know the brand of the lift though...the house is not that wide actually...

OVerall it is a very interesting project, if you like the feel of living on the hill...but at current situation, not easy for the market to absorb all these ...this will actually give pressure to the semi-D project nearby in term of price appreciation.

Well..nowadays the expectation on semi-D is really different, from size, ambient, land size, fittings, etc...all are rather different from one to another...

To me, it has to be spacious, adequate land or enough space betwen neighbours, quality material and good ambient (a lot of trees and landscape).

Kingsley Hill vs The Glades, which SMD offers better value?

Lets see what our lyn bro and Sis says about this

someone really needs to bring SIME down to their feet...

they think they can simply charge sky and haven for some very ordinary products.

However, I am not too confident on MCT also......I dun think they can pull off OneUSJ......
however, their landed seem to be very well priced....including the project near Ciber......initial indicative pricing very attractive also...

let us do some comparison...
- flat land vs hill
- 1 single GG area vs multiple GG area (i guess for this only. might not be true)
- standard BU vs larger and cheaper BU
- popular developer vs less known developer

but if mct can build their condo near to the lrt station, i will sapu

actually can ask sime to eat shit want to sell so expensive......
no offence the price they tag on the glade is as if the land is located in KL

ooopss.. haha
censored. censored..
late Sime ppl saman..

what to do, that residential place is so near to commercial project One City.

lets imagine, you have a house nearby:

Sunway pyramid,
One Utama,
Midvalley..

what do you think the price will be? definitely expensive.

add with international school in Kingsley hill..
The Glades definitely will take this opportunity to charge higher for its location, facilities and environment.

but RM1.4 to 9.8 million for house.. i think its abit too high..
anyway.. all SOLD out.. so nothing much we can comment.
nowadays alot of rich ppl..

Added on November 21, 2011, 12:16 pmregarding this issue:

Kingsley hill should not be too far away from the station,
as the latest news is at STN 11 @ putra heights
STN 13 is the exchange station for Kelana and Ampang line

so coming up for sale are condominium and bungalows


if really want to be near,
it think will be The sQuare @ One City
the station is at STN 10 & management will provide shuttle bus also.
this project definitely will be hot cake @ The place, Cyberjaya (next to lim kok wing university, 1st week launch already reach 85% sold)

you mean the Glades all sold out? no really leh...was told banyak left-over....
only bungalows receiving better sales....SMDs are the worse of the bunch....somemore kena 2nd re-launch....

ohh really? i was told by their marketing staff. all SOLD out. haha

I stand corrected. Haven't been updating The Glades for the last few months...if all sold, then their marketing staff have done a tremendous jobs....

because their SMDs kena sangkut....wrong and bad concept...cannot moved at all.....same with their townhouses......bungalows, only the water front ones got taken......

hard to imagine that now they are all sold.....summore last few months (well almost a year now, since the implementation of LTV70%) have been very tough on high end properties.....

Dropped by the Glades showroom last month, the overall sales for the launched phases was only 30% at best, about one year on. SD can hardly break even to finance the construction costs. If not for being a GLC with deep pockets, it would have been a different story for other developers.

I personally think that the pricing is too ambitious. It is always a good strategy to let buyers enjoy some capital appreciation, create a win - win situation.

very true.. need space for appreciation. win-win will be the best..

yon, please make your info clearer....Glades or Kingsley Hill sold out?

Kingsley just launched semi-d only. impossible to be sold out.
still got bungalows and condominiums to launch..


as for The Glades, the news that i received from them its sold out.
today i tried to call them to clarify.
however no reply from them.
i will call them again tomorrow.
will keep you all updated ok?

- the glades -
some have plenty of left-over
they haven't even launched their lowr-rise condo yet

- kingsley -
they just launched their smd only
bungalow and condo yet to come

http://www.kingsleyhills.com

dunno condo howw much hor.. shud be very expensive

to get the high end residents, i think that area need a good shopping mall/center, entertainment outlets and some high end restaurants... now it is just Giant... good luck...

Dear Katijar,

FYI, One City is coming up at that area.
www.onecity.com.my
largest shopping mall in Subang.
RM 3.6 billion GDV

i think it is sufficient to support the resident there.

Does anyone know when the condo in Kingsley hills will be launched?..mid of this year?

Based on masterplan, it is 4th quarter of this year. But look very unlikely as everything is on hold. Should be next year. I quite interested for the condo too. Estimated price at RM500k Onwards I think.

All their SMDs design are 4 storeys??!!! Each unit looks like a big holiday villas to me.

I bet the price is also sky high as well.

One City, The Square now open for booking.
can drop by our sales office.

SOHO + Studio

3 storey to 5 storey.
price from 2.1 mil to 2.8 mil.

Ya I'm very interested in the Condo too..since that's the one that I can afford leh.. Hopefully by the time it is launched, I have the bullets to shoot

Added on January 19, 2012, 10:45 pmHi Yon..do you think the studio would give a good return when completed? either to flip or rental?

---

Added on January 19, 2012, 11:07 pmI think if there is a college near by or inside Onecity itself, this place going to be happening..

This post has been edited by AIKing: Jan 19 2012, 11:07 PM

If they sell at estimated RM 500k or around RM 500 per sq ft, I sure grab one.

If the Semi-D and Bungalows ( early phases bfore condo ) are sold out easily, I will grab at least 2-3 unit of condo provided have enough cash and cam take loan.

Seriously, 3-5 storey semi-d at RM 2.1-2.8mil is consider cheap. Located bfore the entrance of Sime utra Heights, Subang Jaya address, Freehold and much better than Slime Darby The Glades who selling at much much overprice and deep into the middle of Sime Putra Heights development.

The potential of Kingsley is township within it's own and, International School is there. However, I not sure whether MCT can make it happening at the deep end of USJ location.

Yes. exactly.
we have international college inside One City.
This studio and duplex can be their accomodation also.

Actually its all about branding and status.
a lot people who just started their business,
will register the company using their apartment, condominium unit no.
in fact, this is not helping to build the branding.

however, if you register your company address using the
address The Square, One City.
it builds the image and confidence of their clients also.

added by office inside this project.
over 100,000 sqft of office space filled up already.
i believe, we can go further.

I think with the right strategy to 'sell' Kingsley and One City, this place is going to Score, especially if the OneCity Mall materialised...look at Putra Heights..once upon a time also so..so..now with Giant, direct exit to ELITE highway, Chinese School and SRK under construction and...LRT station coming, the place is a hot cake..

OneCity catchment is not only from USJ and Putra Heights, but also from SJ, Shah Alam section 27, 28, Saujana Putra, Puchong Area, Kota Kemuning, Alam Impian and since it is just next to ELITE highway, if the attraction is strong enough..could be even from as far as Bukit Jelutong (10 to 15 km away) as the travelling time from BJ is only 15 minutes..hopefully OneCity would BOOM

5km radius yielding 1.32 million population.. :-)

one thing i dont like about onecity is that the shopping mall is not wide enough as well as not long enough. Too many levels.....i hope that is just an illusion as it is still under construction/

Thanks to sime Darby that did nothing to add value to the commercials components in putra heights, therefore, a sizable commercial with proper concepts ie one city, may may work.....

correct....SD is declining as a home builder and no longer as lifestyle builder.

For the Putra Heights commercial centre, i think the value will be unleashed when this key LRT interchange (KJ and Ampang line) is ready by end 2014. In long and short answer, this is a potential hidden gem that is undervalue...siapa brani masok?

not undervalue anymore, the price has increased substantially since 1 year ago..

Happy New Year to All.

Any one knows when they are starting to built the LRT station in Putra Heights and when should complete?...if not mistaken the site is in front of the Bank Islam and Anwar Maju mamak Restaurant right?

didnt see any construction except the chinese school...

Is that a Chinese school? That should be the international school.

The Chinese School is at Sec 2, the proposed International School is on Kingsley Hill.

yes. Kingsley international school.
their campus will be there.


same like Tenby internatioal school in setia alam

Guest what..?? today I went to breakfast at Anwar Maju..saw the site for LRT station already place the red and white plastic blocks and a guard house placed at the entrance into the site..plus saw workers ready to put barracades around the site...so it's starting off after all guys...

Would this increase the property value of Putra Heights another 10, 20 or 30% this year? What do you think?

This post has been edited by AIKing: Feb 1 2012, 10:45 PM

HI, May i know what is the built-up / landsize ?

lot size from 45x90,
built-up depends on the type of design, about 5000++ square feet

LRT completing in 2014.

some said foreginers such as indos, pakistani, negro, iranian will move into the LRT hub... so..increase or not?

I foresee when One city starts operation.
it will create more job opportunities.

some said more foreigners.
but anyone want to discuss the main purpose of this lrt stations?

linking kelana jaya and ampang line..

to create porjects for you-know-who?

lol. not so open. cyber crime is still a crime.

for "citizens" more convenient.

icic, anywher i can see the floor plan ?

Everywhere now many foreigners..

Good la LRT, MRT projects...more public transport especially rail systems..more efficient public transport system means less wastage of time (less jam), energy (less usage of petrol), money (cheaper transportation, less accidents, less maintainence of cars), and more productivity (more time to use since faster can reach workplace, and can do work in LRT, MRT since don't need to drive, etc)...then will reduce pollution some more...if you go to countries that have these efficient rail systems and have used them..then you will really appreciate it ..and really hope this transport system will materialise.

you can only see the layout plan @ their office because there are >10 types of different design.
site plan can go kingsleyhills.com to see.

Kingsley Hills is a own township within Putra Heights and neighbouring Puchong-USJ LDP toll and more nearer to USJ compare to Sime darby's Putra Heights.

Anyone got any insider discount for Kingsley hill, kindly pm me: honshao@hotmail.com

Thanks.

what you mean by insider discount?

just trying his luck perhaps.

hi.. anyone can advice if KH is a good buy?

~2.5mil for a 5 storey semi-D

45x90 with built up of 6k+ sqft

Seems like not many units left for phase 3. phase 1 and 2 still got more, but those are facing LRT lines or near the main road/high tension cable lines

KH is considered reasonable in price compare the The Glades which is just across the road.

4-5 storey is not good actually, but with a lift provided, it makes it easier to accept that. Of course, you got to maintain the life, not free lunch

The overall environment would be good with the neighbouring development, international school, close proximity to Elite (2 exits actually), LRT, LDP and 3km+ away from Kesas.

Which unit/type are you referring to?

looking at the 4.5/5 storey types SL 04 and SL 07. i think only the ones >6k sqft left. Around 2.4+ mil

not many choices left, unless get those earlier phases.

earlier phases are cheaper, but near to the bottom of the hill, and either not far from main road, high tension cables or LRT lines.

inner/higher ones seems better, but more pricey

Wow... just 1 word.. WOW!

for investment, wats the expected subsale price and demand for the 2.4m semid after vp?

hard to say. nobody can predict the future, rite?

but i am quite interested in the place. sales was amazingly quite good for the phase 3 despite the high prices. the earlier phases are cheaper but not selling that well. future phases are only bungalow on the upper half of the hill. phase 3 is the last and highest semi-D in KH. condos and bungalow not yet launched.

it's freehold, large built up, elevated land, international school and chinese school. LRT interchange will bring traffic to commercial center. elite and ldp interchange nearby, toll free to USJ so location wise it is not too bad for me.

was looking at the glades nearby too, but the rm 800+ maintenance fees was a real turn off for the glades.

for ownstay is ok....

but to flip say >3m three yrs later after vp, izzit easy to get water fish bo? btw, any use of lrt to the orang kaya who can buy multi mils semiD?

won't be easy for sure. but 3 years later seem quite long. i would say LRT only helps to bring activity to the commercial area. now the shop houses in PH looks like ghost town, so it's not quite a self-sustaining township yet, because not enough human traffic for businesses to survive there. so my point on the LRT is that it helps to develop commercial area, and the township in general and not specifically to transport people staying in KH

but hopefully it will be a nice place for own stay. i can see this hill from USJ. imagine the view from the top of the hill.

PH commercial area is ghost town, sure bo?....few yrs ago was a BIG YES and now is a BIG NO. Try to ask the agents there and see can parang any good unit near upcoming lrt station....many investors wanted a piece of PH commercial and prices & occupation aledi going up there.

KH's semid sure good for ownstaying especially the heights and exclusivity. to flip >3m, buyers will have more choices to select.

Split level design...
Have to climb up and down...

actually i quite like split level design but maybe its just my preference. half floor up or down.

the elevator has 8 landings!

not good for family with small children and old parents...

Can you be more specific about the sft. coz nowaday, developer tend to build smaller semi D, but give u more sft.
they build upwards. more storey.

So lets say if 5 storey and you get 6200sft. each floor is about 1240 sft. if 4.5 floor 1444 sft. Which is still very small unit per floor, in my opinion.
But for the total sft. Of course it's really worth it for 2.5mil.

i believe in other area it will easily be more than 3mil with same sft.

This post has been edited by sameday: Aug 21 2012, 09:58 PM

can find out from the floor plan
here

footprint is 40 X 90, which is a decent size for semi-D

LOLxx posted the link to the detail floor plans, so you can check it yourself too

actually why dont you wait for their bungalow?
any indicative price/news on the bungalows?


This post has been edited by LOLxx: Aug 21 2012, 10:58 PM

no news on bungalows yet.

i am sure not within my budget, that's why no need for me to wait for it.

the price for their semi-d is quite reasonable & the location also not bad.

wow cause of the pricetag? or wow of the unit/place?

yes, was thinking it is quite resonable despite the high price tag. location is not too bad, and looks like an upcoming area.

meanwhile.. some artist impressions...

Have they launch the bungalows?

bungalow launch is Q1 2013, indicative pricing from 3.3mil onwards

next launch is 48 units of Villa Apartment starting at 1.2mil after 15% discount

phase 3 semi-D are sold out

phase 1 and phase 2 semi-D are still available, but either close to high tension wires or located on the main access road from the KH guard house

A landslide just happened ytd, what will happen to the buyers? can they cancel the s&p?

Considering that the whole Bukit Cermin is "renovated" for this project, no surprises on the landslides. Since landslides have occurred once, can happen again...buyers of this project..be afraid...be very afraid.

Very scary ler.....invested millions in one unit then heard abt this landslide news!

wah.... darn costly whether it is rite place or not..

wow, price must drop by 30%

Then can move cyber lo

the glade is under the hill... so ...

The LRT line will pass through the lake behind The Glades, it is actually at risk too.

got lake?
