Just on location alone, it is very subjective lah. Selective comparison is only fine if location is not the most concerned criteria. Sometimes, the price is reflective of overall package. For example, many link houses (those completed within these 2-3 years), actually cost more than those at lakeedge if not the same. Those house are selling at 750-800k for 2S, not to mentioned about those within Grandis or Mascarena Plams. Also if you compare Setia Alam Anjung Sari, 3S with club house is priced at 750-800k. There are many more examples, but if you compare these price with the existing houses within Lakeedge, the price difference is very minimum.

At the end, it is up to you to decide if LakeEdge in general in under price or these other places are overprice (being so far away from KL town).

One more thing, there is a significant trend in which decentralization is taking place. That's also help in mitigating over population at one area or extreme increase in price in selected pocket of development due to strong demand.

If consider the house itself, Reed is much better than KR.
But if we take in all the internal & external factors, like accessibility, location, neighborhood, facilities, amenities and weather, I still prefer Kinrara Residence for own stay, no doubt Reed has advantage in terms of house layout and land size, but these are not absolute factors.
Kinrara Residence is located near to Ayer Hitam Forest Reserved, it is definitely cooler than Reed at Lake Fileds (my fren who stay in Lake Fields always complaint that is warm and no wind inside LF), besides that, KR is nearer to Bukit Jalil Recreational Park which I think is a plus point. Puchong will become a vibrant city, very lively!

i believe it has got to do with the orientation of the development. i'm also currently staying at meadows&glades, YTL built over 500 plus units in this phase and all units are either facing north or south only.. it's quite true that there is not much wind.. but then at the linear park, can really feel it.. so i think the wind is actually blowing from east or west.. but due to the target market, YTL arranged it north / south and pack it like sardines.. so not much wind can be felt..

Can tell why u wanna upgrade to Reed. Only a< 50% of houses are N-S orientation. With big park and lake, double frontage design, it shd be windy and cozy.

hopefully it'll be more windy than the 1st phase.. anyway i think reed has a lower density of unit per acre compared to meadows&glades and dale. reed is also quite generous with open space..

reason for upgrade is that meadows&glades is actually 20x75.. nowadays 20 ft wide is really not enough and as someone posted earlier the cars are actually parking at the road shoulders on both sides and this make it quite narrow.. furthermore, the backlane is very narrow only i think 5 ft apart.. and most of the rear extended to the end..

i think reed will be able to address all those problems above.. and superlink will be the trend forward..

planning to have a morning jog from KR to bkt jalil park ?? hehe

Someone was mentioning in another forum reed Look Like mansion at desa Park City?
Any similarity?

Some mansion photos

Nowadays, the house is pretty squarish from exterior view and all those vertical and horizontal grill/bar are part of the design , plus more glass....

Yeah, the big difference is price.......1 unit of Mansion =4 units of Reed, but of course different lifestyle, FH vs LH, brand names, location.
agree with u, nowadays, the contemporary design plus lots of linear parks, greens, the developer may higher same company to do the artist impression drawings, make them look alike.

Just found this topic here when i did a google search, nice to know some lyn forummers also bought reed, i got an end lot, might be neighbours after 3 years haha!!!

How come developers don't make landed properties with swimming pool like DPC anymore?

Make it more affordable.
Duta villa in Setia alan fit your requirement.Hehe. With swimming pool.

can't believe DPC was selling at 400k minimum back then! With Swimming Pool! GnG!

If Reed has Swimming pool also okay whut, with the price.

Reed swimming pool tak ada, got small pond for small fishes, hahahahahaah!!

Dpc in kepong many people don't want buy Lo..

No pool also habis sapu kering...

The price will be the same, but instead of 730 people ballot for Reed@Lake Field, it will be 3000 more to grasp!

R u currently staying in Lakefield and want to upgrade to Reed, or u stay around Sg Besi?

well, at least reed has the 3-acre central park..

can anyone attach a photo of the lake or army camp?
