Project Details
United Point Residence nestles on a 9.33-acre of land right along Jalan Lang Emas. With a great mass of land, potential residents can expect various facilities and conveniences to be built around the area for their comfort. To begin with, United Point Residence is a mixed development.
Tagging along with this potentially successful residential development is a shopping complex that offers varied lifestyle needs from food to fashion. Residents at United Point Residence won’t need to travel beyond the integrated development’s perimeters in getting groceries, carrying out retail therapy activities as well as entertaining themselves at the cinemas. All can be found right within the comfort of one’s home. Worry not as mall visitors will have their own separate entrance and parking space to ensure that there will not be any overlapping parking incidents with the residents.
Great amenities are all within walking distance but how does United Point Residence fare as a home?
The residence boasts of having a 3-acre facilities ground, which caters to every need of the residents here. The interlinked facilities consist of a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, pool deck, aqua gymnasium, dining pavilion, wading pool, leisure pool, gym and function room. Thus, residents could unwind with sports given the sports facilities provided, which also include an indoor badminton court. Residents can dine and entertain family and friends at the function room, multi-purpose hall or even at the BBQ area.
The units here are varied in sizes and layouts. They range from 667 sq ft to 1,206 sq ft with a vast selection of rooms.
The common layout here is the three-bedroom layout that ranges from 958 sq ft to 990 sq ft. These layouts comes with two baths that include the common bath. Besides that, these units come with a balcony and a yard attached to the kitchen.
The elongated layout that comes without compartmentalisation make these units look spacious despite being under 1,000 sq ft. A good bargain especially for small and burgeoning families.
If you need more rooms and space, buyers can always opt for the 4-bedroom layout that ranges from 1,152 sq ft to 1,206 sq ft. These layouts come with three baths. It also comes with a balcony and a yard attached to the kitchen. Units at 1,206 sq ft will have a long balcony that encircles the exterior side of the living area right to the dining area.
Bigger units will come with two car parks while smaller units will only get one each. By the way, all the units come as unfurnished.
Location
This particular location gives great emphasis on potential. The south side of Kepong in true fact is going through a massive construction phase, in terms of road infrastructures, residential developments and rail networks.
The area in general is located among various developed and developing areas like Desa ParkCity, Mon’t Kiara, Hartamas Heights and Segambut. It is very much accessible via various roads that include DUKE, Lebuhraya Utara-Selatan, Jalan Duta and even Jalan Kuching.
But do be wary as the area here is often faced with jams due to the construction of the new DUKE2 highway (Sri Damansara Link) that will be cutting through the area. The new extension aims to connect the area to MRR2 and DUKE. At the same time, it also hopes to disperse traffic to and from MRR2 to the city centre.

The area itself has numerous existing housing neighbourhoods that include Taman Segambut Aman, Taman Sri Segambut, Taman Seri Bukit Segambut, Taman Segambut Muda and Segambut Bahagia.
There are countless existing amenities that include mom and pop’s shops, clinics, restaurants, laundrettes, 7-Eleven stores and even kindergartens at the existing business and commercial centres that are located extremely close by. Among other amenities within a close commute are:
Various
- Publika, Jalan Dutamas
- Hartamas Shopping Center, Jalan Seri Hartamas
- Plaza Sinar, Taman Sri Sinar
- TESCO, Taman Manjalara
- Park City Medical Center, Jalan Intisari
Schools
- International School @ Parkcity, Desa Parkcity
- Garden International School, Jalan Kiara 3
- Lycée François de Kuala Lumpur, Jalan Dutamas Raya
- SK Taman Kepong
- SMK Kepong Baru
- SK Seri Kepong
- SJK © Kepong 3
- SMK Desa Mahkota
- SMK Sinar BIntang
Since the area is still under rapid construction, residents can always go to neighbouring towns for help in terms of amenities. By the time United Point Residence reaches its completion, the residents wouldn’t even need to leave the premises in order to go shopping. As mentioned, the potential here is immense and the sky’s the limit for this part of Kepong. A diamond in the rough with truly enormous prospective to be at par with the likes of Mont’ Kiara and Hartamas.

Summary
Potential seems to be the key strength for United Point Residence. The area is going through a lot of constructions but these are the key constructions in making United Point Residence competitive in the property market.
A major draw to the residence is the affordability of units on a freehold land. With a minimum of RM370,000, residents are able to own a home, while bigger families can splash RM650,000 for a bigger sized unit that comes with four bedrooms.
Another strength of the development is the fact that it is an integrated development. It will come with a mall that is able to serve the various needs of the residents as well as an interconnected KTM Komuter station for commuting purposes. KTM Komuter United Point Residence Station will be built just a stone’s throw away. Thus, commuting here wouldn’t necessarily need to depend on personal mode of transportations as public transportation will be able to assist in reducing the bottlenecks around the area.
