Kota Kemuning’s Non-Landed Homes Continue to See Steady Demand Amid Market Stability

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 22 — Despite its past reputation as a flood-prone area, Kota Kemuning in Shah Alam, Selangor continues to show healthy and stable property market growth. The township’s solid infrastructure, established amenities, and strong connectivity have helped sustain steady demand for both residential and commercial properties.

Steady Appreciation in Non-Landed Homes

According to EdgeProp EPIQ data, non-landed properties in Kota Kemuning have maintained a positive upward trend over the past three years, reflecting the township’s resilience and appeal to both homebuyers and investors.

Within a 1.5km radius of Persiaran Anggerik Vanilla, the average transacted price for non-landed units rose from RM319,000 (RM416 psf) in 2022 to RM395,000 (RM450 psf) in 2023 — the highest in three years — before moderating slightly to RM385,000 (RM455 psf) in 2024.

Built-up areas vary from compact condo units of around 657 sq ft, which fetched RM702.89 psf, to larger 1,528 sq ft homes transacted at RM320.58 psf, indicating a diverse market that caters to both young professionals and families.

Landed Properties Show Resilient Recovery

While non-landed homes have been stable, landed properties — which account for nearly 85% of the area (396.82 acres) — have seen more fluctuations. Average prices stood at RM1.1 million (RM458 psf) in 2022, dipped to RM985,000 (RM438 psf) in 2023, and recovered to RM1 million (RM441 psf) in 2024.

Recent transactions included a townhouse on Jalan Sungai Congkak at RM339.89 psf and a semi-detached home along Jalan Anggerik Oncidium priced at RM429.88 psf.

A Mature Township with Balanced Demographics

Kota Kemuning’s population reflects a balanced socio-economic mix — with 42.3% M40, 40.7% B40, and 16.9% T20 households — contributing to a stable demand profile across different property types.

Launched in 1994 as a master-planned township, the area was developed with a focus on green living and community integration. The 25-acre Lakeside Park and Kota Permai Golf & Country Club remain its most recognisable landmarks, offering leisure, wellness, and recreational value for residents.

Commercial Growth and Urban Connectivity

The township has also evolved into a thriving mixed-use community supported by retail, lifestyle, and business amenities. Convenience outlets such as 7-Eleven and 99 Speedmart branches are spread across the neighbourhood, while larger retail anchors like AEON BiG Bukit Rimau and Pasaraya Hero cater to family-oriented shopping needs.

Dining and lifestyle offerings — from Starbucks Drive-Thru Kota Kemuning to Pun Chun Noodle House and Nea Fine Bake — continue to attract foot traffic to the township’s vibrant Gamuda Walk commercial hub.

EPIQ data shows that commercial property prices in Kota Kemuning have generally risen over the past four years, peaking at RM1.6 million (RM861 psf) in 2023 before a mild correction to RM1.5 million (RM792 psf) in 2024.

This steady commercial activity mirrors broader investment trends seen across Selangor, where demand for industrial land in Selangor, commercial property in KL, and industrial property in the Subang area continues to grow as businesses expand regionally.

Education, Accessibility, and Future Growth

Kota Kemuning’s educational landscape includes Krista Bukit Rimau, Little Bloomers, and SK Bukit Rimau, alongside technical training institutions like ADTEC Shah Alam, which offers courses in aircraft maintenance and industrial technology.

Excellent accessibility via KESAS, LKSA, and ELITE Highways links the township seamlessly to Shah Alam, Subang Jaya, and Kuala Lumpur, adding to its appeal among urban professionals who prefer suburban comfort with city connectivity.

Looking ahead, several new developments are in progress — including a proposed mosque, ongoing apartment projects, and future mixed-use plans — underscoring Kota Kemuning’s long-term investment potential.

Balanced Lifestyle and Strong Investment Value

With its established infrastructure, well-planned layout, and balance between urban convenience and natural surroundings, Kota Kemuning remains one of Klang Valley’s most sought-after suburban addresses.

For investors and developers focusing on growth corridors in Selangor, the area’s performance reflects a broader pattern of confidence also visible in nearby markets like office space in Bukit Jalil, factories in Puchong, and industrial zones in Subang — all part of the state’s expanding property and industrial ecosystem.
