THE first phase of UEM Sunrise Bhd’s flagship township project of Kiara Bay in Kepong – Residensi AVA – has been completed with the placing of its roof slab on the top floor.
It is a joint venture with Melati Ehsan Group, called Mega Legacy (M) Sdn Bhd (MLSB).
The ceremony was held with visions to transform the township into a “15-minute City” by 2045.
With an estimated gross development value (GDV) of RM664mil, Residensi AVA’s construction progress is at 75%.
UEM Sunrise chief executive officer Sufian Abdullah, who is also one of MLSB’s directors, said the event was a significant milestone to develop Kiara Bay into a sustainable township.
“It is a lively urban living destination that is inclusive in our multi-generational communities while further marking our presence in the Klang Valley,” he said.
Other key attendants at the ceremony were MLSB chairpersonS Zaida Khalida Shaari, MLSB director Tan Sri Datuk Yap Suan Chee, SA Architects Sdn Bhd director Richard Sau, UEM Sunrise chief operations officer (Central) Liong Kok Kit and ORANGEBEAM construction director Datuk Indera Tun Putera Matin Ahmad Shah.

Residensi AVA sets the tone for elevated urban eco-living with an emphasis on liveability, where its design draws inspiration from the concept of symmetry and balance, similar to the wings of a butterfly.
The development consists of two towers, both 41 storeys high, with 870 units comprising various built-up sizes to cater to different generational needs and lifestyles.
Among its amenities are lap and wading pools, badminton and basketball courts, as well as yoga and sky decks. Prices start from RM567,800.
Residents of Residensi AVA enjoy close proximity to the Kepong Metropolitan Park for their leisurely activities as well as various retail offerings at Kiara Bay’s retail space, called The Beat, which is directly connected to the park.
The development also boasts easy access to the Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2) and Jalan Kepong, both easily connecting commuters to other highways such as the Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE), Selayang-Kepong Highway and the Damansara-Puchong Highway (LDP).
As Residensi AVA is only a 2km drive to the nearest MRT station, residents can also travel to various parts of the Klang Valley along the MRT Putrajaya Line.
Spanning 29.4ha, Kiara Bay consists of three districts with a 1km green connector that links them all, such as The Waters, consisting of a mix of residences with a lakefront retail space; The Walk, a community-centric marketplace with residences; and The Village, an inclusive multi-generational wellness and living, surrounded by green spaces.
Both Residensi AVA and Residensi ZIG are located in The Walk district.
