i saw youtube video of the showroom, doesnt really look big to me, the whole layout is kinda "sempit"

floor to ceiling height also probably low, which will be "stuffy"

anyone been to the showroom and taken a picture of the availability board?

I personally wouldn't be bothered by this, as some developers are known for their "sticker game" on those boards.

With JK4 extension. This project has huge potential. I heard they are having cooperation with MKIS. And sole entrance from JK4.
*
Cooperation with MKIS? The road will then be congested again with parents sending their kids etc. Don't forget when the OOAK opens up, traffic will start to get heavy too. And Kiara 163 may also divert traffic using the back road i.e. JK4.

And if true that MRT3 will be located along JK4, good luck to this road in future.

UEMS need to do more and show more sincerity in product design and overall masterplan in JK 3, 4 and 5 area if they really want to get their sales move
*
I think it is not within UEM's control. It is overall just bad planning by the authorities. Example look at how terrible the traffic has become at JK1 after K163 started. Illegal parkings, motorcyles by the roadside etc. MK is no longer the same.

Once OOAK 163 opens, traffic may be diverted to the back, congesting JK4 instead.

Will the proposed Mont Kiara MRT station be along Jalan Kiara 4? If yes, more pros or cons for Allevia?

Jk4 only exclusive for allevia n neighbours lot? What is the gov plan for the slum lot?

Heard there are plans to extend JK4 until TWY as an alternative access road to and fro Solaris/Dutamas. To basically ease traffic on JK1.

I have been very confused about so many statements about "Allevia .... exclusive ...JK4....." E.g. Exclusive Access on JK4.

Few scenarios in my mind:

Scenario 1: It only means Allevia has an entrance on JK4. That's all. You can say "Allevia has an Exclusive Access in Malaysia"

Scenario 2: Someone will set a gate with guards at the begining of JK4 and check if you are a resident of Allevia or IMK, if not, sorry, you cannot use JK4. <-- This scenario is the first thing come into my mind when I read the marketing material.

Scenario 3: UMES pay more money and extend/build/link JK4 from Allevia to TWY/Jalan Duta Kiara. Only Allevia or IMK residents can drive their cars from the starting of JK4 to TWY/Jalan Duta Kiara. Non-Allevia or Non-IMK residents can only use JK4 until the IMK/Allevia entrance and then will be forced U turn.

Scenario 4: Same as Scenario 3 but Government pay money to extend JK4 to TWY. Agein, only Allevia or IML residents can use JK4 to get to TWY.

What do you guys think?  I think that, if Allevia can achieve scenario 3 or 4, it will be a very unique and great competitive advantage to other condos in MK.

I think “exclusive access” is a pure marketing gimmick. What they probably actually mean is that JK4 is only opened to a few condos ie R22, Ooak, Arcoris and Allevia. The rest only have pedestrian openings.

Special access to MKIS….sounds interesting

Parents/bodyguards picking up kids will jam up JK4 , like how JK5 is jammed up now by Gardens back gate 😀

Thanks both. I am not looking at subsale.

Working on my research of Allevia. I am just curious why the developments sandwiched by JK3 and JK4 did not provide for dual access (car, not pedestrian) to both roads but must select only one.
*
DBKL controls. Sefina has a back entrance via JK4, but until today not assessible for vehicles. Seems they are will waiting for DBKL approval.

Re: AK3 - price is possibly due to location along JK3 + 1 entrance only. For Allevia, hard to say. Just bear in mind MK International school may open up a back gate at JK4 and you know what this means. Cars will line up the road to pick up kids , like what they r doing along JK 5 for Gardens now.

That’s really strange isn’t it. Valuation is 50% off just because of access road. One observation is the road has to be elevated to connect to JK4 as there is a big drain / river underneath. So the construction cost will definitely be in the millions.

Do you think DBKL would link up JK4 with Duta Kiara and make arrangement with AK3 and Richmond to grant access to JK4?
*
This has been in the pipeline to deflect traffic off JK1, which pretty much makes sense. However personally I dont see it happening anytime soon.

makes me thinking....the back gate of MKIT will connect directly to Allevia? If so, then the gate is really EXCLUSIVE for Allevia. But it doesn't make sense in my opinion.

Not sure, if Kiara 163, Arcoris or R22 can benefit from the back gate.
*
Have a look at google maps.. the back gate is likely to be nearer to the squatters or IMK.

Just drive along JK5, you will see a back gate to Gardens International School as well opposite Jaya Grocer. Some parents/drivers etc will park along that road to wait for their kids to avoid JK3

So there is a slope which is supported by retainer wall. Any ‘exclusive’ entrance will need a staircase and MKIS needs to put some sort of security protocol there. The road along that stretch is a 1 x 1 (narrowing from 3 x 3) and impossible for car to wait there without blocking Allevia and Inspirasi residences. Hence don’t bank on a back gate as MKIS will have a hard time policing it. Direct connection into Allevia just doesn’t make sense. It is a 294 units residence only. How many will house MKIS students? Any back entrance has to be for common use of the residences along JK4.

With the graded terrain and slope, it will also be costly for DBkL to join JK4 with Jln Duta Kiara.

The retainer wall is further up. Personally I don't think its difficult to build a stairs and entrance near the swimming pool or nearer to the field. MKIS are filthy rich.

I have done extensive research on the development. Allevia back gate will be closer to IMK. It’s I’ll be a 500m walk to GIS but the stretch from IMK to Sefina will spook any expats. From Sefina to GIS, it is really a pleasure stroll. That said, IMK will have similar concept with access to JK3 and JK4, hence they will beautify the facade and things should get better.

Do not know which party owns the squatters land but if MRT is to be located along JK4, that is the most plausible option. It was mooted to be infront of Arcosis, but that stretch is just impossible...
*
MRT , if it ever happen in MK, is likely to be fully underground (Eg Ampang Park station etc) No plot of land is required, or even if needed, just a small area I think.

You’re not wrong. I wrote this off very quickly despite the lovely design when I knew where it was. They didn’t even try to price it lower and went the other direction and priced this really high with really large sizes.

It goes to show that yes location is important but sometimes gloss and marketing can make buyers look past it. This generally doesn’t work in a less lux area.

Fully agree.. Just take a drive on any days, weekday or weekend ... look at the number of cars parked by the shoulder of the road. In my view not the most pleasant sight to drive in and out of everyday...
