Astrum Ampang

A transit-oriented project, Astrum Ampang in Ampang, Selangor, is a leasehold mixed development on over 6 acres of land that consists of residential, commercial, SoHo, and serviced apartments. Expected to be completed in 2026, the project by Setia Awan comprises six towers ranging from 24-28 storeys with 5,228 residential units and 27 shops. Each tower is named after the project’s name – Towers A, S, T, R, U, M – derived from the Latin word, “Astrum”, for the sky, heaven, stars, and constellations.Located just off Jalan Jelatek, the project enjoys exceptional accessibility through trunk roads such as the Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE), and Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2). As it is a Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), the Jelatek LRT station is a stone’s throw away, which makes it a key selling point for many urbanites. Besides that, the Dato’ Keramat and Damai LRT stations are just down the line heading towards the KLCC. Astrum Ampang ticks all the boxes for a complete urban life as the area is rich with amenities. Restaurants, convenience stores, places of worship, hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, petrol stations, grocers, and recreational parks are plentiful, so the residents won’t need to worry much about travelling far. Additionally, the Korean, Thai, French, Russian, and many other international embassies are a short distance away, making the project highly coveted as not just a place of dwelling but also an investment.First launched in Q3 2021, Astrum Ampang is a multi-phase development featuring 5,228 SoHo transit homes, affordable SoHos under the PR1MA governmental housing program, serviced apartments, and 27 shop units.
