Quick answer: who is Khaya Residences for?
Khaya Residences suits buyers who want a Bangsar address from RM 785,000 within a short walk of Kerinchi and Abdullah Hukum LRT, with 19 layouts from a 630 sq ft 1-bedroom to a 1,321 sq ft 3-bedroom. It is less suited to buyers looking for a low-density building or an early move-in: 795 homes share one 61-storey tower, with completion expected in Q2 2029. For the latest price list and available units, WhatsApp +60 17-279 8932.
My view
In one line: of the three Bangsar projects compared below, it has the lowest entry price, gets you a Bangsar address, and you can walk to the LRT station. The downsides are that it only completes in 2029, and the tower is tall with many units.
Living there: it is about a 5-minute walk to Abdullah Hukum LRT station, two stops from KL Sentral, so people working in KL Sentral or Mid Valley can consider not driving. If you drive, Jalan Bangsar is congested most of the time. The lower floors have up to 26 units per floor, so ask about this when choosing a floor.
On price: the lowest price here is about RM 1,157 psf, which falls within actual sale prices at the nearby completed Vogue Suites One and Novum; the highest reaches RM 1,434 psf, above every sale in those two buildings. So I would look at the smaller types and the 1+1 first; for the larger types, compare with other Bangsar projects before deciding.
Who it suits, who it doesn't: professionals who work in KL Sentral or Mid Valley and take the LRT. It does not suit people who want to move in soon: completion is expected in Q2 2029, 52 months after signing. It also does not suit families who want a quiet, low-density building, as the tower has 61 storeys and 795 units.
How long to hold: as your own home, you can stay long term. If you want to let it out, nearby units of 787 to 850 sq ft have asking rents of RM 3,200 to 4,000 a month, but these are only owners' asking prices, not signed leases. The type most likely to find a buyer later is the 772 sq ft 1+1 (Type A).
Check for yourself when viewing: the show unit workmanship is good, so ask whether handover will be to the same specification; ask how utility rates are charged on the commercial title; when choosing a floor, ask how many units are on that floor.
- Suits: professionals working in KL Sentral, Bangsar South or Mid Valley; buyers who want a Bangsar address without Bangsar landed prices; people who commute by LRT.
- Think twice if: you want a low-density building.

Asking rents are what owners are listing for, not signed leases, so treat them as a ceiling.
How I read it. The lower end of Khaya's launch price per square foot sits inside what Vogue Suites One and Novum Bangsar South units actually sold for in 2024 to 2026, and the upper end sits above anything recorded at either. That fits what I said in my video about paying a Bangsar South price for a Bangsar address. Two things keep this from being a straight comparison: Khaya is a launch price for a building expected in Q2 2029, while the other two are finished buildings you can inspect today; and Khaya's address is Jalan Bangsar, while the other two are in KL Eco City and Bangsar South.
Which Khaya Residences layout suits you?
| Type | Size | Configuration | Who it suits (my view) |
|---|---|---|---|
| B | 630 sq ft | 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom | One person, or a first home |
| C | 683 sq ft | 1 + 1 bedrooms | One person who wants a study |
| A / A1 / A2 / A3 | 717 to 772 sq ft | 1 + 1 bedrooms | A single buyer, a couple or a small family |
| D | 869 sq ft | 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | A couple who needs a second bedroom |
| E / F | 998 to 1,032 sq ft | 2 + 1 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | A small family |
| H | 1,028 sq ft | 2 + 2 bedrooms | A family that wants two extra rooms |
| I / J | 1,070 to 1,096 sq ft | 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms | A couple who wants more room |
| G | 1,086 sq ft | 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms | A family that needs three bedrooms |
| K | 1,164 sq ft | 3 + 1 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms | A family that wants a utility room |
| L | 1,321 sq ft | 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms | A family that wants the largest layout |
What I would pick. I like different things in each show unit. The 1 + 1 (Type A, 772 sq ft) has a glass balcony with a clear depth of 1.2 m; it fits a single buyer, a couple or a small family, so it is the easiest layout to resell later. The 1,164 sq ft Type K is squarish: 3 + 1 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, where the +1 is a utility room, with an enclosed kitchen. The 1,321 sq ft Type L feels closest to a landed home: an open kitchen, dining and living area, two balconies (one off the second bedroom, which is unusual) and a bathtub in the master bathroom.
Price per square foot against its neighbours
| Project | From | Price per sq ft | Built-up | Units | Monthly fee | Completion |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Khaya Residences | RM 785,000 | about RM 1,157 to 1,434 | 630 to 1,321 sq ft | 795 | About RM 0.50 psf | Expected Q2 2029 |
| Bangsar Hill Park, Tower B and C | RM 1,123,000 | about RM 793 to 1,132 | 803 to 1,478 sq ft | 802 | RM 0.35 psf, excluding 10% sinking fund | Expected 2028 |
| Bangsar Hill Park, Verdura | RM 835,000 | — | 917 to 1,478 sq ft | 812 | Estimated RM 0.35 psf, excluding sinking fund | Completed 2025 |
Khaya has the lowest entry price of the three because it offers one-bedroom units from 630 sq ft, but a higher price per square foot than Bangsar Hill Park Tower B and C, and it is the last of the three to complete. On the monthly fee, Bangsar Hill Park quotes RM 0.35 psf before sinking fund, while Khaya's about RM 0.50 psf already includes it.
