Great structure and stature

This is seamlessly among the nicest developments on the block. With its massive height and stature, Verticas Residensi screams comfort in the heart of the party district of Kuala Lumpur.

To balance such momentum in life, Verticas Residensi gives serenity and great calmness within its vicinity. Verticas Residensi isn’t stopping itself when it comes to pampering the residents here. Facilities at level 27 are indeed mouth-watering. The Sky Terrace has the Skyline Viewing Deck as well as the Reflecting Pool where residents could ease their woes away by admiring the breath-taking view of Kuala Lumpur.

In making life easier for the residents, Verticas Residensi provides free shuttle bus services to areas like Bukit Bintang, Pavilion and Sungei Wang Plaza. It also comes with a 24-hour concierge service.

The views here are simply stunning. There aren’t any high rise buildings blocking Verticas Residensi. In fact, residents are blessed to have the Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve as the primary view of the development. Then there are also various views of the city’s grand infrastructures such as Suria KLCC, Menara Kuala Lumpur and even a glimpse of the evanescent of Bukit Bintang.

The units here are massive, a rare practise in most high-end developments these days. Among the smallest units here is 1,427 sq ft. It comes with two bedrooms and two baths. The unit’s space is huge and is definitely gracious for a 2-bedroom unit. Such units also come with balcony.

Another available unit here is the 1,822 sq ft unit. It comes with three bedrooms with an additional space that can be converted into a room. These units have four bathrooms.

The sizes of the units here expand to 2,022 sq ft. These units have four bedrooms and four baths. Its master ensuite comes with a glorious bathtub. Units at Verticas Residensi are partially fitted, while some come as fully furnished.

With such width, space and lavish features, residents would definitely have no issues in unwinding themselves away from the mayhem of a metropolitan lifestyle especially after a night out around town.

Location

Welcome to the entertainment side of Kuala Lumpur. Jalan Ceylon’s location reflects the lights and vibrancy of Kuala Lumpur’s night spots as well as dining galore. The area is strategically located within the Golden Triangle of Bukit Bintang, Sungei Wang and Pavilion but with a rather subdued ambiance.

verticas s9

Great green ambiance with a magnificent view of Menara Kuala Lumpur

Getting here would never be an issue for anyone. Take a drive from Jalan Tun Razak and head on down to Jalan Sultan Ismail via AKLEH. It is highly recommended to take the smaller routes of Jalan Gereja and Jalan Bukit Nanas to admire the beauty of a rather historical side of the city centre. Once you’re there, you will be embraced by a very serene atmosphere as the area is still covered by lush shaded greens.

If driving seems to be a drag, do hop on the train from the LRT Kelana Jaya Line and stop at Dang Wangi Station. If you’re using the monorail, you can choose to either stop at Bukit Bintang Station or Bukit Nanas Station, depending on the scenery that you chose to get to Bukit Ceylon. You can opt for the buzzing and vibrant street of Bukit Bintang or a serene hike along Bukit Nanas. Both routes have their own unique attractions.

MRT Line 2 SSP Line (Bukit Bintang Station) is in construction. Located next to BB Plaza

Adding to the current efficiency of public transportation, MRT Line 2 SSP Line (Bukit Bintang Station) is undergoing massive construction right next to BB Plaza. This will amplify the volume of commuters commuting from wider parts of Klang Valley and Selangor, tracing right up to Putrajaya. With great connecting train systems, we do hope that the area will face less bottlenecks as compared to the current constant jams surrounding the area.

The great thing of living here is the nightlife of Ceylon and its surrounding neighbourhoods. It is exuberant! You will never run out of options on where to dine or go for a night out in town. In fact, Changkat and Ceylon comes to life every night, regardless if it’s the weekend or a work day.You won’t be able to tell the difference between partying on a Saturday or a Monday night!

Changkat is the heart of great parties and food here

  • Party on Changkat– Changkat is host to a list of pubs and restaurants. The entire lane of Changkat offers a variation of places to wine and dine. These include The Ceylon Bar, Baan 26, Front Page Sports Bar & Grill, Uptown, Pampas, Why Not and more. The pubs and restaurants here are constantly changing or going through rebranding. There will always be new nightspots to hang out at every other month!

Street food at its best at Jalan Alor (Source: http://www.venusbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/Jalan-Alor-Sign_friedchillies.jpg )

  • Gastronomical galore along Jalan Alor– This should be in any foodie’s bucket list. Jalan Alor is known for their amazing local delicacies that include fried oyster, char keow teow, ‘ikan bakar’ and satay. The hawker stalls here open at late evenings and operate right up to the wee mornings. How tantalising a trip to Jalan Alor would be? You can forget about dieting when you’re living here!
  • Shop till you drop at the Golden Triangle– Shopping here is simply endless. Residents can just walk to the lustrous malls like Pavilion and Starhill Gallery. For quirkier and affordable shopping, residents could always opt for Sungei Wang Plaza or even Berjaya Times Square. A variety of options from high street brands to Korean wear. Residents could also shop for the latest electronic gadgets at Low Yat Plaza, which is located around the vicinity.

Other amenities that are within a short commute also include:

  • Tung Shin Hospital, Jalan Pudu

Summary

Such a vibrant area with great surroundings. Verticas Residensi projects such a modern take on city life, where everything and anything are within immediate reach. The hip and happening places are a walk away too. Changkat is deemed as the ‘it’ area for the young and socialites to mingle the night away while club-hopping or having gastronomic rendezvous at the varied eateries around the area.

While the vibrancy is merely at one’s doorsteps, Verticas Residensi on the other hand offers an escapism to a reclusive hideaway even within the realms of the city’s vibrancy. Great amenities and facilities at the residents’ disposal, residents could definitely juggle work, party and serenity all at the same time.
