Also, there are many gorgeous bungalows in Bangsar, with some by the hillside overseeing spectacular views of Kuala Lumpur city centre and even the Twin Towers.
Strategic Location
Recent years, Bangsar's population has increased and led to an increase in traffic congestion and parking shortages. Developments in neighbouring Bukit Damansara and Mid Valley Megamall have caused increased traffic to pass through Bangsar, especially along Jalan Maarof (major road in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia).
Bangsar is a unique community which includes a good mix of expats and local residents, with a good variety of offerings in terms of F&B, retail, healthcare, and entertainment. The good mix of different cultures and elements within the neighbourhood is what makes Bangsar attractive to homebuyers.
Furthermore, the price of the properties continued to increase because of land scarcity, high demand, growing population, and the business activities. For example, a condominium with 900 sq ft in Bangsar located 5 minutes driving distance from LRT station has exceeded RM 500,000 (RM 555.56 psf) whilst a condominium with 1,000 sq ft in Cheras located 4 minutes driving distance from LRT station are asking for RM 400,000 (RM 400 psf).
