Sunway Velocity

Speed Of Life

Sunway’s Velocity self-contained integrated mixed development is a highly anticipated property. Stretching over 22 acres along Jalan Cheras, the development includes over one million square feet of shopping malls, two central parks, and more than 5,000 parking spaces. Its selling points are well noted, but what is bound to attract buyers by the hordes is its brilliant use of space for their service apartments. : 243 standard units (915-1,728 sq.ft.) and 21 duplexes (1,884-2,368 sq.ft.)

Don’t hesitate on this property just because its smallest unit is 915 sq. ft. The space packs a lot more than meets the eye. Not a single inch was wasted by any unnecessary pillars, walls or storage. As you enter, to the left is a bar-like foyer, which in fact hides a wet kitchen behind sliding doors. Packed with all the essentials for a complete kitchen, serving is as easy as turning 180 degree and placing plates atop a long countertop. In front of the kitchen is an open dining area and living room. The expanse of the space is clutter-free and mobile-friendly.

The smallest unit has two bedrooms; one master, one guest (or children). While the latter bedroom is compromised in size, it has built-in closets and enough room for a bed and study desk. What helps the room feel larger than it actually its oversized windows. The master bedroom has its own bathroom and the standing shower is full glass. The perk: Couples can delight in a visual show, as the shower is also glass looking into the bedroom.

The much bigger of the units (1,728 sq. ft.) is just as brilliant as its minor. The dining, kitchen and living room area are all within the same room, giving off that studio affect. The wet kitchen is in another room, behind the dry kitchen. Of course, the dry kitchen is also a 180 degree turn from a bar counter. What’s brilliant is how fitted the wet kitchen is and the space allotted to the laundry room, which also has a private room for a maid or storage. The long hallway also has built-in closets for all those extra goodies that should not see the light of day.

This unit consists of three bedrooms and two full baths. All the rooms are spacious and have its own windows and built-in closets. The master bedroom is divided into four sections: walk-in closet, sleeping area, private lounge area, and bathroom. While it seems to pack more than it has space for, because there are no angled bulge intruding from other rooms (meaning that all the spaces are either full square or rectangle) or storage space, it is able to feel as if the apartment is 2,000+ sq. ft. Perhaps, we liken, it has something to do with the fact that it has no staircase in the way.
