Curvo Residences is the final residential phase of the first integrated development in Setapak, SkyArena.
With its meticulous planning, UOA Development Bhd has carved out a niche for itself, especially for its Bangsar South development. The 60-acre mixed-use project has attracted plenty of buying interest to its office towers, residences, and commercial outlets. The developer has focused on building what the market needs to ensure that its property buyers can profit from their purchase.
One of its launches in Bangsar South in early 2019 is The Goodwood Residence. This will be a multi-generational development, so it will be friendly to the older generation, on top of having facilities for all generations.
The Goodwood Residence is developed to deliver wholesome community living that’s surrounded by city conveniences. Thoughtfully constructed to provide harmonious living, The Goodwood Residence promises to lead the way for multi-generational living in Malaysia.
The development provides spaces that allow for both privacy and togetherness. There are big and small details that lend themselves wonderfully to the needs and preferences of various family members.
Communal recreational facilities include an indoor playroom for toddlers, an obstacle course-based adventure zone for older children, a discovery pond, and a cycling track. For seniors, there is an aqua gym, putting green, chess pavilion, mah-jong lounge, and a heated pool, for those who wish to exercise and warm their joints.
Other facilities include a wellness zone, chess pavilion, mahjong lounge, hydrotherapy spa, putting garden, lap pool, kid’s cycling track, maze, lounges, garden pool, garden grill pavilion, reading zone, 3G fitness zone, bamboo trail and many more. These facilities encourage better bonds between multiple generations and promote a healthy family environment.
This 40-storey development offers flexible and spacious units to accommodate buyers’ needs. The development will have 678 units, with built-ups ranging from 948 sq ft – 2,002 sq ft. As it is located in the mature and still-being-developed Bangsar South, buyers of The Goodwood Residence will have a lot of amenities close by.
Bangsar South offers amenities such as The Sphere lifestyle shopping mall, The Village’s F&B outlets, the lifestyle centre Nexus, Life Care Diagnostic Medical Centre, Cengild Medical Centre, and Sunfert International Fertility Centre.
In 2017, UOA revamped The Sphere, increasing its net lettable area from 67,000 sq ft to 110,000 sq ft. The mall reopened in February 2018 with 93% occupancy. The commercial offices there are called The Horizon and The Vertical, and they feature aesthetically appealing office towers that provide a working environment in the surroundings of a central park.

Project Details
Majority of units at The Goodwood Residence features a removable wall that allows for greater flexibility. The additional space could be used to expand a bedroom, or converted into a storage.
The Goodwood Residence also places a high priority on enabling residents to age in place. Every unit is already designed with elderly residents in mind – tiles and floor are all anti-slip, corridors are wide enough to allow a wheelchair to move easily, master bathroom is fitted with sliding doors, a bench in the shower area, and a non-stepped floor for added safety.

Analysis
In 2019, Bangsar South officially reverted to its original name, Kampung Kerinchi. UOA Group, the developer of Bangsar South, has clarified that Bangsar South is the project name of its mixed-use development and not the name of the area itself. The names “Bangsar South” and “Bangsar South City” are trademarks registered to UOA Holdings Sdn Bhd, which forms part of the UOA Group.
Property experts have dismissed concerns that the change of Bangsar South’s name back to Kampung Kerinchi will drive down property prices in the area. Long-term investors or property owners are likely to look beyond this as location, infrastructure, connectivity, and availability of services are crucial elements to sustain properties’ value – which Kampung Kerinchi has.
Regardless of this name change, Bangsar South continues to remain popular and develop. It is forecasted to have a population or 35,000 when fully completed. There are more than 22 multi-national corporations operating in Bangsar South, with about 1,500 expatriate workforce, and that has lent to the demand for residential property.
Residences in Bangsar South started at approximately RM200 psf when UOA first launched their developments in 2007, and some properties have appreciated to more than RM800 psf.
Bangsar South has had a considerable impact on the surrounding areas, and many developments in the vicinity have capitalised on the prominence of Bangsar South by association. The development has enjoyed great success, largely due to its location within– close to Kuala Lumpur city centre, Bangsar, Petaling Jaya, Old Klang Road, and Damansara.
Here’s a quick look at residential properties in Bangsar South.
