20trees Progress photos and sales update
Click for larger image
The 20trees at Melawati by one of my favourite developers, Selangor Dredging Berhad (SDB), was launched 3Q last year. Of course I couldn’t afford the landed ones, so my focus was obviously on the apartments. I already caught wind on this early last year when I was property hunting. I was totally mesmerised by what it could potentially offer: breathtaking view, streamlined façade, up-on-the-hill development, and a chance to own a place where your neighbours are millionaires! Decided to contact the sales team and they then sent the floor plans (DHL-ed it infact) here.
With that, I started to dream this as my first humble abode. Prices started at about RM500,000 for an entry level apartment for about 1,854 sq ft (prices have increased since). When it was finally officially launched, I decided to check out the location and the product itself.
Didn’t really like the area, as it proved to be way too far in. It says “10 minutes to KLCC” in its brochure, but for anyone to take 10 minutes to reach KLCC they must had to drive at middle of the night, definitely! The product in its flesh was a bit of a disappointment. Didn’t like how thick balustrades were, and bedroom 2 and 3 would have a view of the retaining wall. Irregardless, it does look impressive and the sales charts seem to prove this. I would say about 80% have been taken up. The leftover units have their bedrooms facing retaining walls (level 1 & 2) and few penthouse units.

Just been there to check out the few remaining units (there were quite a few interested families). Location wise this is right on top of the hill which fits my preference for a peaceful and quiet surrounding. Furthermore this is by far the most quality development around that area.

Hi Lauraine,
I still am rather divided on this development. While I absolutely love the whole whole development looks and feels, and the amazing view, it is the location that put me bit off, for me at least. The simple and clean lines of the facade are refreshing, not many developments would take such a route. I think it may have a hard time to sell it all off, but let’s see! I need to make another site visit there soon to check it out myself

I do enjoy the manner in which you have presented this matter and it really does offer me personally some fodder for thought. However, because of what I have witnessed, I only hope as the actual remarks pile on that folks keep on point and don’t start upon a tirade associated with the news du jour. Anyway, thank you for this excellent piece and whilst I do not necessarily agree with it in totality, I regard the standpoint.
