Do people really buy such places in Sentul and think it is a luxury/high end place they are buying into??

Thought most had already learned on buying high end places at Segambut Dalam.

Nice building but wrong location.

Also good luck when it starts to age and subsequent contractors hired for the upkeep doesn't share the same vision as the architect or project designers.

Hahaha I know....I've seen all types. The kitchen space is pathetic. Only 13xx has some workable space, but the way they build these units.....seriously can't understand how they make big units look so small. Condos which are over 10 years old are built to use space way more efficiently.

There tends to be a demand for bigger rooms and more bathrooms in most condos these days, therefore kitchens tend to become smaller especially in smaller built up units.

Supposedly it has something to do with developers surveyed that smaller units tend to be purchased by investors who prioritise bedroom space over kitchen space and larger bedrooms are easier to rent out. Bigger units will have better sized kitchens as supposedly those who buy them are owners who buys for own stay thus they will need bigger kitchens but could tolerate smaller rooms?

I don't like small built ups with too many rooms, find that after they been rented out at the end of tenancy there are too much wear and tear on them.

No matter how small is the kitchen you still can cook.

Just out of curiousity, how many of you here actually cook on daily basis b4 commenting on kitchen too small cant cook?

Me, getting too old these days to always eat out and not worry about salt, fats and sugar.

As an owner of type A @ The Fennel, this is my "tiny wet+dry kitchen" in the midst of renovation many months ago. Although "tight", still managed to fit a 547l fridge, 14/8kg washer dryer and 6ft dining table for 6-8 ppl.
Didn't even eat into my living space as I have a 10ft+ 4 seater L shape sofa in there and plan to add more wall shelves later on if needed.

The Fennel isn't perfect, but at 1200 sqft-ish, tough to find a better layout with 3 bedroom, all with attached bathrooms with glass shower doors. The master bedroom is one of the largest for any units this size and there's no weird shapes and angles(where room/bathroom doors are facing the bed), for all bedrooms. Every space is rectangular and easier to plan for.

"Small" kitchen is hardly a dealbreaker wink.gif

Looks like single person operation kitchen? Does not appear 2 can work in there at the same time.

I do like that every room is an ensuite bathroom and the master bedroom is off a generous size.

Guess you can't have everything at this price bracket.

Hahhaha those ads are all dreamers.....owners who are still in fantasy land. Good luck getting those rented out. Agents told me the range for 1186/12xx sqft is 2300-2700 and showed me 2 units back in May for rental/purchase. Both owners open for rental OR sale. Tells you something doesn't it. 1 was empty for 2 months, the furnishing was nice and move in suitcase condition. Asking RM2400. Another was minimum furnishings which developer had installed, asking RM2200.

Showing these 3 ads asking for unrealistic prices doesn't fool anyone, sorry.

Difference between full vs semi furnished only RM200?? ohmy.gif
