Setia Awan Group's Soho (small office/home office) Suites 1 on Jalan Jelatek in Kuala Lumpur, which is part of phase 2 of Astrum Ampang, is now open for buyer registration.
Phase 2 comprises Soho Suites 1 and SoHo Transit 2, with a gross development value (GDV) of about RM600 million.
Soho Suites 1 has a total of 664 units, which are bigger than the previous phase 1 release and start at RM430,000.
The units are also lower density and have larger windows, allowing for more natural light penetration and higher energy efficiency.
Setia Awan Group chief operating officer for the central region, James Andrew Bruyns said the units are ideal for young working adults, small families, and investors who want to live or own assets near the Petronas Twin Towers.
According to Bruyns, the units are ideal for those looking for a home in the city, where land and property prices have skyrocketed.
He said that the SoHo Transit 1 (phase 1) has had a 90 per cent take-up rate since its release in the third quarter of 2021. The SoHo transit units are studios with 280 sq ft built-ups and are priced at RM230,000 each.
According to him, one of the key reasons for the high take-up rate is the My First Home Scheme programme, which makes property ownership a simple process for first-time homebuyers.
He said the project's strategic location and status as a Transit Oriented Development are additional factors contributing to the high take-up rate.
"We anticipate continued positive market response for our SoHo Suites 1," he said.
Astrum Ampang is located on a 6.85-acre leasehold parcel and has a total GDV of RM1.6 billion. It will consist of six towers ranging in height from 24 to 48 stories: Towers A, S, T, R, U, and M.
It will offer a total of 5,228 units, including SoHo transit homes, SoHo suites, serviced apartments, and Rumah Mampu Milik. It will also have 27 shops.
The name Astrum Ampang comes from the ancient Greek language and means "star." The development is heavily influenced by the cosmic celestial theme, with light sources decoratively interspersed throughout to emulate a starry sky.
The thought of stars brings to mind Astrum Ampang's 57-story height, which provides residents with a breathtaking view of the Kuala Lumpur skyline.
A five-acre landscaped podium spans the development and has been meticulously manicured for decorative and recreational purposes.
The outstanding development features 62 excellent amenities, including an infinity pool, sunken jacuzzi, children's indoor playground, antioxidant room, multi-purpose hall, outdoor theatre, community centres, and more.
Residents at Astrum Ampang will get to enjoy a seamless smart living experience that includes smart technologies such as free WiFi in common areas, a digital community app, and an advanced smart gym.
The 5,000-square-foot smart gym will feature cutting-edge workout equipment as well as the ability to host personalized virtual fitness classes.
Residents will also have access to 27 commercial units on the ground floor, adding to the area's already diverse range of amenities.
Astrum Ampang is surrounded by international schools, shopping malls, recreational parks, and medical facilities.
For more retail and lifestyle experience, the upcoming Datum Mall located beside Astrum Ampang will further complement its residents' needs.
The development is a 16-minute drive to the Kuala Lumpur city centre and 150m away from the Jelatek LRT station. It is easily accessible via Jalan Ampang, Jalan Jelatek, Middle Ring Road 2, Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway, Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway, Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway, and Kuala Lumpur-Karak Expressway.
