Here’s the last set of the actual units of Ameera Residences that I have at the moment. A full write-up and my first impressions will be posted in just a bit!

So I finally am back to tanahair-ku, Malaysia and after a week of re-adjusting my body clock, I am now back to blogging. On top of my must-visit list of developments is Kiaramas Ayuria, which has already been handed over to its buyers (Block A & B) early April. When my friend offered me to view her unit, I quickly jumped on it. Kiaramas Ayuria is located at Jalan Desa Kiara, on the eastern side of Mont Kiara. I particularly love this side of Mont Kiara because of it’s lush greeneries. Ayuria is current located at the highest point of Mont Kiara.

The first thing that you would realise as you drive up to the development is the big water tank. Truth to be told, for first time visitors, this can be quite overwhelming as I felt the same too. But after a few visits, I didn’t even realise it was there. We zoom pass the simple guardhouse…I must say that Kiaraville & Hijauan had better entrances, where sometimes less is more. After parking the car, we headed to lobby and as we strolled pass the lush greeneries, there were birds chirping! It was a really nice environment to be in, and there was no apparent highway noise from the nearby Penchala Link. Felt it was so so serene.

After viewing her unit, I must say that I came out truly impressed. I am not going to comment about the landscaping or the common areas (will let the photos do the talking), because the most striking feature for this condo, in my opinion, is it’s amazing views which you can see from the master bedroom and the living area.

Just look at the above photo. This is the view from the master bedroom. Imagine yourself waking up every morning and have that view to greet you! It’s really to die for, really. I also loved the choice of color of the flooring, not too dark, just nice. The more neutral color makes the rooms more spacious. The living and dining were appropriately sized, though the bedrooms, especially bedrooms 2 & 3 were a tad small for me. I noticed some minor defects like chipping on the flooring, and some water stains on the wall.

At the end of the viewing, I was truly impressed. Next on my list would be Kiaraville and then Hijauan Kiara. That way I could compare them more equally after viewings.

Meanwhile, more photos after the jump (bandwidth heavy!).
