Aras Residences WCity OUG Review 2026: Price, Layouts, Location & Who It Suits

Aras Residences review: 1,272 homes in two 56-storey towers in WCity OUG, 850 and 1,062 sq ft, 2 and 3 bedrooms, from RM 666,000. Layouts and who it suits.

Aras Residences WCity OUG Review 2026: Price, Layouts, Location & Who It Suits

Quick answer: who is Aras Residences for?

Aras Residences suits couples and young families who want a two- or three-bedroom home in the established OUG neighbourhood, in a WCT township with its own park: an 850 sq ft two-bedroom or a 1,062 sq ft three-bedroom. It is less suited to buyers who want a small building or to walk to a train: 1,272 homes share two towers, and Sri Petaling LRT is about 1.6 km away.

My view

Aras is the second residential project in WCity OUG, next to WCT's completed The Maple Residences, so you can walk around a finished building by the same developer before you decide. The plan is practical rather than flashy: only two layouts, all bedrooms facing outward, towers oriented north-south with views towards KL City or Bukit Jalil, and a clear ceiling height of 3.1 m in the living room and bedrooms. The facilities are spread across the ground floor, Level 9 and a Level 56 sky terrace, and the towers face the township's Central Park and a 200 m linear park. The trade-off is scale: 1,272 homes, with 14 units on each typical floor. The fee of RM 0.39 per sq ft is moderate for a project of this size.

  • Suits: couples and young families; buyers who want to inspect the developer's finished building next door; owners who want a large facility deck.
  • Think twice if: you prefer a low-density building, need four bedrooms, or want to walk to an LRT station.

Who is the developer?

Aras Residences is developed by WCT OUG Development Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary in the WCT group, whose holding company is WCT Holdings Berhad. WCT works in engineering and construction, property development, shopping malls, hotels and business aviation, and has over 40 years of experience. Its construction arm is a CIDB G7 contractor whose work includes three Formula 1 circuits and over 400 completed projects worth about RM 40 billion. Its property arm has delivered about 18,000 residential and commercial units, including the Bandar Bukit Tinggi township, and runs the Paradigm Mall Petaling Jaya and Paradigm Mall Johor Bahru.

In WCity OUG itself, The Maple Residences was completed in 2025, and the township includes a Central Park, The Food Merchant and The Waltz Residences.

What do nearby homes actually sell and rent for?

The closest like-for-like reference is The Maple Residences, WCT's own completed tower next door, about 170 m away. The Park Sky Residence in Bukit Jalil, completed and about 1.6 km away, is the second reference, with many recorded sales at sizes close to both Aras layouts.

The Park Sky Residence1,044 to 1,106 sq ftRM 3,200 to 5,000 (mostly RM 3,800 to 4,000)

Asking rents are what owners are listing for, not signed leases, so treat them as a ceiling.

How I read it. Aras's starting figure of about RM 783 per square foot sits below what The Park Sky Residence's units of similar size actually sold for in 2024 to 2026 (about RM 850 and up), and below The Maple Residences' recorded sales of about RM 850 to 920 for its larger units. The Maple Residences only has a handful of records so far, all from late 2025 and 2026 after completion, so treat it as an early signal rather than a settled market. Aras is a launch price for a building expected in Q4 2029, while both references are finished buildings you can inspect today, and The Park Sky Residence sits closer to Pavilion Bukit Jalil. RM 783 is the lowest figure on the price list, so compare the exact unit you are quoted. For rent, The Maple Residences' 808 sq ft units next door are mostly listed at RM 2,800 to 3,000 a month, and The Park Sky Residence's 1,044 to 1,106 sq ft units, close to Aras's 1,062 sq ft Type B, mostly at RM 3,800 to 4,000.

Which Aras Residences layout suits you?

TypeSizeConfigurationUnitsWho it suits (my view)
A / A1850 sq ft2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, balcony904 (452 per tower)A couple, or a young family with one child
B / B11,062 sq ft3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, balcony368 (184 per tower)A family that needs three bedrooms

What I would pick. For a family, Type B at 1,062 sq ft is the one I would choose: three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and only four of them on each typical floor of each tower. Type A is the bulk of the project, nearly three in four units, so it is the layout with the most choice of floor and facing. Both layouts come with 2 or 3 car park bays. Ask which side your unit faces: the towers are oriented north-south, towards KL City or Bukit Jalil.

What does it cost to hold each month?

The maintenance fee is RM 0.39 per sq ft a month, including the sinking fund, so:

TypeSizeMaintenance fee per month
A / A1 (2 bedrooms)850 sq ftAbout RM 332
B / B1 (3 bedrooms)1,062 sq ftAbout RM 414

On a 1,000 sq ft unit that is about RM 390 a month, the same as The Maple Residences, against about RM 420 at The Queenswoodz and RM 510 at OAKA Residences. Quit rent and assessment tax come on top.

The Maple Residences is about 170 m away, OAKA Residences about 700 m and The Queenswoodz about 1.2 km. Aras has the lowest entry price and the lowest starting price per square foot of the four, and the largest unit count. The Maple Residences is already completed, so you can inspect it; OAKA is the low-density option at 350 units, at a higher price per square foot.
