Naza TTDI Sdn Bhd teamed up with Exsim Development Sdn Bhd to jointly develop MET 6, which has a gross development value (GDV) of RM800 million. Exsim was granted the rights on a 1.86-acre land to develop a premium residence. That residence is called The Fiddlewoodz.

It is located at the edge of the KL Metropolis integrated hub, which has a GDV of RM20 billion. Developed by Naza TTDI, the mixed development of KL Metropolis, is a city within a city where trade, commerce, living and transport converge over 75.5 acres of prime land located by the townships of Damansara Heights, Sri Hartamas, Mont Kiara, and Bangsar.

The Fiddlewoodz @ KL Metropolis has 2 contemporary towers, which are designed to be understated and elegant in their simplicity. This project is scheduled for completion in 2025.

For Naza TTDI, this is the fourth JV development in KL Metropolis, with the previous three being Hap Seng for KL Midtown, Triterra for The MET, and Nusmetro for Arte Mont’ Kiara.

The Fiddlewoodz is Exsim’s first premium project in KL Metropolis. Apart from this project, there are quite a few supply coming up in the Dutamas, Segambut and North Kiara area, such as Met 1 Residences, Alix Residences, The Era, Solasta Dutamas, and Riana Dutamas, among others.

Branded residences are often well accepted in the international market. Names such as Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, and Banyan Tree, are examples of an instantly-recognisable brands. While branding takes time, KL Metropolis could very well be the next Publika or Desa ParkCity.
