What sets it apart
Waltz Residence is the first phase of a larger township, built before COVID and completed four to five years ago. The units are unusually generous: the 1,691 sq ft Type D1 is a dual-key with a two-bedroom unit and a separate studio sharing a foyer, four bathrooms, a wet kitchen and a maid's room, 3.4 m ceilings and a 3.85 m-wide living room, about a metre more than most.
Finishes include solid timber floors and Roca sanitaryware, and corridors are nearly 3 m high. Every few floors a small shared garden breaks the facade, and the facilities sit on top: a long infinity lap pool, a children's pool and a separate gym and sky lounge.
Where it is
It faces OUG's shops and markets, with landed Taman Yarl and its mansions behind. KESAS is right in front, linking to MEX, MRR2 and the Seremban highway, and Old Klang Road leads to Mid Valley; Pavilion KL is 15 to 20 minutes away without traffic. Schools, kindergartens and a long-established community of older families surround it.
Rent and returns
On property portals, a 1,250 sq ft three-plus-one-bedroom unit was listed for sale at RM900,000 to RM960,000. A furnished dual-key was listed at about RM4,000 for the main unit and RM2,000 for the studio, about RM6,000 in all, which Sean says still makes money for anyone buying at around RM900,000.
A gym floating beside the pool
Instead of a rooftop deck, the facilities sit on a lower tower, with a free-standing glass structure holding the gym and a sky lounge with its own kitchen, reached by a bridge. Sean calls it one of a kind: you get unblocked views over the landed area while a neighbouring tower keeps it from feeling exposed.
3 on 3
The three things Sean likes and the three he doesn't, from his own list at the end of the episode.
- 1The location: between the MEX and Seremban highway junctions on KESAS, with Old Klang Road to the LDP and Federal Highway, plus schools, markets and a community that has been here for 40 to 50 years.
- 2The facilities: a stand-alone gym on a lower tower, a pool with unblocked views over the landed homes, and a narrow site cleverly squeezed with two basements and a one-way loop.
- 3The unit layout: no fire door between the lift and the unit, a dual-key corner unit with three en suites, a maid's room and a proper back-of-house, all wide, high and square, which Sean says suits him.
- 1Odd design treatments forced by the site: one way in, so some drivers must U-turn; car parks you go up to reach the basement; a tight scissor ramp marked by scrapes; and plain tower lobbies.
- 2The structure: exposed shear walls used as features, rooftop facilities squeezed into what were meant to be units, and bare columns at ground level, typical of designs from seven or eight years ago.
- 3Future supply: more phases of the same township and about 10,000 to 12,000 new units nearby over four to five years, including on the empty plot next door.
Sean once weighed it against his own Bukit Jalil home, and admits this one suits his lifestyle better, a reminder of how much space pre-COVID launches gave.
