Avelia Ampang

Where overall connectivity is concerned, Avelia Ampang sits relatively close to major parts of the Klang Valley. It is linked via major city highways such as the Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE I & II), SMART Tunnel and other roads such as Jalan Ampang and Middle-Ring Road 2 (MRR2). This provides access to areas such as Setiawangsa, Bandar Baru Ampang, Pandan Indah, Maluri, Titiwangsa and Kuala Lumpur’s city centre.

Avelia Ampang Location

Avelia Ampang has one of the most prized addresses in greater Kuala Lumpur. Strategically located away from the city, its main connecting road to the inner city is Jalan Ampang. Prospective buyers of this property would be required to take a short drive along Jalan Ampang Kiri from Jalan Ampang Ulu before hitting Jalan Ampang within a couple of minutes. An additional 10 minutes drive towards the western end of the main road will arrive at Kuala Lumpur’s busiest intersection, where the famed Petronas Twin Towers are situated. Heading on Jalan Ampang towards the east would take those on wheels to the beating heart of Ampang where iconic outlets such as Ampang Point and Suzi’s Corner are available. Highways that are accessible at this area include AKLEH and MRR2, which can be alternatives to Jalan Ampang that is infamously known for standstill traffic during the rush hour windows. To avoid congestion on Jalan Ampang, prospective buyers can opt for inroads around Avelia Ampang such as Jalan Ampang Kiri which leads into AKLEH further to the north.

For those who are familiar with this area, its southern region is peppered with embassy buildings which outline the famous Taman Tasik Ampang Hilir. Within the same radius of about 500 meters from Avelia Ampang, other important facilities that prospective buyers typically take into account are also available. This includes Gleneagles Kuala Lumpur, SMK Hulu Kelang as well as places of worship such as Surau Al-Mukmin.

Connectivity

Commuting in personal or e-hailing vehicles from Avelia Ampang is a breeze due to seamless accessibility into major highways that connect to other parts of the Klang Valley. However, for those who prefer to get about on foot, public transportation requires some form of initial ferrying. This is because the closest LRT stations to the project are approximately 2km away. The Ampang Park station, which is located towards the western end of Jalan Ampang, services the Kelana Jaya line, while the Ampang station, which services Ampang line, sits to the east.

The Ampang Park station enables connectivity to other stations on the Kelana Jaya line such as Dato’ Keramat, Setiawangsa, Wangsa Maju and Gombak in one direction, while KLCC, Pasar Seni, KL Sentral, Kelana Jaya, Ara Damansara, Subang Jaya and Putra Heights are available in the other direction. For inter-Kuala Lumpur commuting, prospective buyers can jump on the Monorail at the Dang Wangi station which is 3 stops away. One stop further from Dang Wangi is Masjid Jamek which connects to the Ampang and Sri Petaling lines. Sitting two stops ahead of Masjid Jamek is KL Sentral which connects to virtually every line in the Klang Valley such as MRT Sungai Buloh-Kajang, KTM as well as ERL KLIA Express and Transit.

The Ampang station, on the other hand, does not have direct access to KL Sentral, however, it services lines that connect to other regions such as Sentul, Cheras, Bukit Jalil, Puchong and Putra Heights. This is the first station for the Ampang Line and requires multiple stops before arriving at the connecting juncture of the Sri Petaling LRT line. Both the Ampang Park and Ampang LRT stations are important cogs in the machine and require planning ahead of travel for prospective buyers of Avelia Ampang.

Convenience

Avelia Ampang is strategically tucked behind the hustle and bustle of Jalan Ampang and has loads to offer for those who get around on foot. M City Mall is situated adjacent from the development and about 150 metres away through Lorong Ampang Ulu. The mall is home to a host of options ranging from retail, food and daily essentials. This includes outlets such as Village Grocer, Burger King, Shucked Oyster & Seafood Bar, The Hut Restaurant and many more. Further east of Jalan Ampang Ulu are cafes and restaurants that serve desserts and authentic Malay cuisines such as nasi kukus and nasi lemak. Cafes which serve delectable treats such as dessert cakes and coffee include the likes of Ninja Coffee Ampang along Jalan Ampang Kiri and Cafe La-Cappuchio along Lorong Ampang Ulu.

Across the Jalan Ampang main road sits yet another cluster of outlets which cater to folks from all walks of life. This row consists of petrol stations like Petronas and Shell, as well as Watsons to fulfil one’s everyday needs. Along this same row but further southeast are a variety of Chinese and Western restaurants which includes Restoran Teochew & Hakka, La Risata (Italian) and Las Carretas (Mexican). If individuals or families who wish to head out of the project area, Ampang Point is definitely a treat. It has outlets such as Anytime Fitness, Ampang Superbowl, MR DIY and famous food chains like Sushi King, McDonald’s, KFC and PapaRich, just to name a few.

Avelia Ampang also comes encircled by other important facilities and amenities, apart from just food, entertainment and daily essentials. Schools such as SMK Hulu Kelang and Sekolah Menengah Ulu Kelang sit just about 300 meters away from the project. These schools are located on the northern end of Jalan Ampang Kiri. Closer towards the city centre and along Jalan Ampang are schools such as SMK Seri Ampang and SMK Puteri Ampang. For those who prefer to enrol their kids in the quieter part of Ampang, schools such as SMK Dato Ahmad Razali and SK Ampang are available towards the southeastern part of Jalan Ampang. Prospective buyers would also find themselves spoilt for choice with healthcare facilities. Gleneagles Kuala Lumpur is perched along the western part of Jalan Ampang, while KPJ Ampang Puteri Specialist Hospital is towards the east.

Avelia Ampang Property Analysis

Target Market

Avelia Ampang would appeal more to families and high-earning couples who are looking to live together. The 735 sq ft unit range and up would best accommodate this segment of the target market as it has sufficient bed and bathrooms. The 560 sq ft range would likely be suited to those who wish to rent in a prime location, due to employment in the city centre. Property investors would surely see the lowest range most suitable to sustain steady yield from this audience bracket. The larger unit range with 1,050 and 1,505 sq ft built-ups would certainly pique the interest of large families who are seeking to settle in for long-term as important facilities such as schools and healthcare are available within close proximity.

Competitor Analysis

The price per sq ft for Avelia Ampang is RM973, which translates to RM545,000 for its lowest range units. Considering the project sits on leasehold land, it may appear as a very steep price tag. However, it should be taken into consideration that Avelia Ampang comes equipped with a landscape like none other around the vicinity. A similar project sitting on leasehold land along Jalan Ampang Ulu 3 is Arte+ which commands a price per sq ft of RM650. This project is similar to most serviced apartments in terms of facilities and amenities and has much higher density. The project was also completed in 2018, as opposed to Avelia Ampang’s estimated completion in 2023. Reizz Residence is a project which was recently completed in 2019 but sits on freehold land. With a price per sq ft of RM875, prospective buyers who are scouring the area could be tempted to make a purchase, despite having a much smaller bracket in built-up size. However, these buyers should expect higher density residential blocks with average facilities. Avelia Ampang is a clear stand out among the three with avant-garde facilities and landscape which can offer a complete dwelling experience.

Avelia Ampang Developer: Mayland & Land & General Bhd

Land & General Bhd has long delved into a myriad of businesses over the years, ranging from timber, palm oil, rubber cultivation and is now principally engaged in property investment and development business.

Mayland has a considerable land-bank for development, and these land parcels are located in prime areas within Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, and Johor Bahru.

Some of their current projects are Hampton Damansara and Dorsett Waterfront Subang.

Summary
