Project Details
The progress, so far
Affordability comes in smaller packages. Court 28 @ KL City is offering affordable properties be it for own stay or even for investment. The ultimate catch is the size of the units here.
The view of Court 28 from afar
Generally speaking, they aren’t big but do bear this in mind that they are practical and sufficient. The layouts here begin from 703 sq ft to 934 sq ft.
Type D (Source: http://www.hr-group.com.my/components/com_osproperty/document/1470672334_20160701_Court28_Leaflet_A3_new.pdf)
The smallest units here include Type D1/D at 703 sq ft with two bedrooms and two baths. All living areas are placed concurrently. With two rooms and a second full bath, this makes privacy much more attainable despite the size. Such small units do come with a balcony that is located at the living area.
Type B (Source: http://www.hr-group.com.my/components/com_osproperty/document/1470672334_20160701_Court28_Leaflet_A3_new.pdf)
Type B1/B on the other hand is an extremely popular layout that can be found on every residential level. Sized at 859 sq ft, such units have two bedrooms and a study room. The study room can be converted into a third bedroom as it can accommodate a single bed frame. Such units have two full baths, which include the master ensuite. The balcony is located at the living area. The layout also consists of the kitchen, living and dining areas aligned, enabling great lighting and undisturbed accessibility to the view from the balcony.
Type A (Source: http://www.hr-group.com.my/components/com_osproperty/document/1470672334_20160701_Court28_Leaflet_A3_new.pdf)
The biggest unit here is sized at 934 sq ft and it comes in the form of Type A1/A. It comes with three bedrooms and two full baths. The rooms are located side by side as the second bath is oddly placed closely to the kitchen. A unique feature of TypeA1/A is the location of the balcony that is located in the master bedroom, instead of the living area.

The amenities around Court 28 (Source: http://www.hr-group.com.my/)
Where Court 28 nestles is in an area that mostly consists of landed properties along with low to high density condominiums and apartments. Its immediate neighbours wouldn’t be a hindrance to the view as homes along Jalan Manggis and Jalan Bachang are mostly made of single and double storey homes. Meanwhile, there is a river called Sungai Batu that flows behind the development.
Getting to Court 28 is relatively easy. Take a drive from Jalan Tun Razak and head on to Jalan Ipoh. The entrance to Jalan Kasipillay is located along the road. Getting here from the city centre would take around 15 minutes. It can be less, if the traffic is not being a nuisance. The area proves to be a winner when it comes to great accessibility in getting to and fro the city centre. Extremely ideal for those working right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur yet yearning to pay less for rental or mortgage.
Amenities along Jalan Ipoh
The area is also well linked to various districts of Klang Valley. Sentul is minutes away by using Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah via Jalan Ipoh. It is also connected to Segambut through Jalan Cenderuh and Lebuhraya Duta-Ulu Kelang (DUKE). Meanwhile, Kepong can be found at the end of Jalan Ipoh itself.
The traffic can be a hassle while living here but fret not. There will be a massive construction of MRT Line 2 soon. The area will have bigger and wider reach among commuters with the construction of the Sungai Buloh-Serdang-Putrajaya Line. It starts at Damansara Damai and ends at Putrajaya Sentral. Among the closest stations around Court 28 are S12 Sentul West station, which is a 10-minute walk as it will be placed next to SK Sentul Utama and S11 Jalan Ipoh, which will be on the opposite side of Kompleks Mutiara. It would take 20 minutes to get there by walking.
Train stations nearby
But for the time being, residents can opt for Titiwangsa Station for both Monorail and LRT (Ampang Line), PWTC Station and Sentul Station
There are numerous developments mushrooming within the area. This will lift the value around Jalan Ipoh and Sentul, in general. The likes of The Capers and The Fennel from Sentul East are filling up the area with impressive modern marvels. Meanwhile, The Maple and The Pano of Jalan Ipoh will also be providing distinctive infrastructures around the area. These are indeed exciting times as we are witnessing the transformation of such conservative areas into contemporary districts.

Summary
An open mind is definitely needed in viewing this property as a potential home. Most of the units here are under 1,000 sq ft, which can be seen by many as inadequate to be called a home for families. But look at the positive side of Court 28. It offers affordable properties within the heart of a metropolitan city, as we all do know that property pricing here is pretty steep especially among cash strapped families and individuals.
Furthermore, the great advantage behind smaller units is to allow people to purchase them at an affordable price. A property priced below RM500K is definitely affordable especially for a serviced apartment in Kuala Lumpur. There is definitely no harm in downsizing if it allows you to own a property in a flourishing area that has immense potential for value escalation in the future.
Adding on to the affordability factor, Court 28 is also surrounded by great conveniences, right from mini marts, banana leaf delights (be it for vegans or meat craving eaters) right up to saree enthusiasts. This is a culturally inspired area as residents could easily immerse themselves in getting to know the dominant Indian culture, from food to fashion.
