Mutiara Bukit Jalil
We’ve passed the billboard on the Sg. Besi-Puchong road (or some people call it the Bukit Jalil highway) many times, the other day we were compelled to turn to see this place after a reader requested for a review. It so happens it was launched weekend, there was the food, and plenty of people milling about in every room.
The tagline for this project is ‘Affordable luxury homes’ and we’re inclined to agree. There was a first phase launched awhile back, and was sold to good response. There a few bumi lots remaining at the moment.
Let’s get it straight. We like the place. It’s affordable, we like the design, we like the facilities, and it’s low density. There are a few drawbacks, like the location. There is an established small to medium industrial park right in front of it, the two entry points of the development are via the industrial lots. It’s not a big deal, but it may a problem for many people. The other concern, is of course, the Bukit Jalil highway, it being a left-turn only road. If you need to go to Puchong or PJ, you need to go TPM to make a u-turn, or go through Bandar Kinrara.
There are the basics – secured guarded homes, ex-plantation freehold land, better than average finishes, landscaped gardens. What else do we like? The layout. Three storeys, 5+1 rooms, 2,895sq.ft. We like the utility downstairs, and the large wet and dry kitchens. The upper floors have large rooms and family area, although some people may not like shared bath design layout at the back the house.
There’s a decent view from the site, and there are plans for more phases of high end homes. There are only 135 units for this phase, so each launch is quite limited to maintain exclusivity. For this phase there are only one type of unit for sale.
So, take a look at this place if you’re in the market for something in the RM400k to RM800k price range.
We don’t have a location plan for you, but its on the Bukit Jalil Highway, towards Astro, just before the Bukit Jalil golf course junction. Incidentally, the turning is directly opposite the turning into Alam Sutera.

Hi, I found this website when I’m searching for Mutiara Bukit Jalil in Google. I think the project reviews in this website are very helpful for the home buyers. Keep up the good job!
Actually, I am interested in 2.5 storey linkhomes and trying to compare Mutiara Bukit Jalil with Prima Tropika in Seri Kembangan area (near the Equine Park). However, I can’t find the review on Prima Tropika in this website. Could you please review the Prima Tropika project?
By the way, is there any official website for Mutiara Bukit Jalil?
Comment by Eunice — December 30, 2005 @ 12:37 pm
There is no review of Prima Tropika on this site, and we are temporarily not doing anymore reviews of new projects due to time constraints. but if we are in the area, we will drop by and let you know what we think of it, no promises though. our sincere apologies.
as far as we know, there is no website for Mutiara Bukit Jalil.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I hope the editors will passby that area soon…hehe…
I was reading the review on Sovereign, Permai Park and found this statement, “Many people we know try to avoid that area due to numerous reasons.”. Could you please list down the reasons why many people try to avoid the Seri Kembangan area? This is important for me because I’m seriously considering that area now. Thanks in advance.
Wishing the Property Malaysia team a happy & prosperous new year!
Comment by Eunice — December 30, 2005 @ 3:35 pm
eunice,
well, traffic jam for one. the main road in seri kembangan is famous for its jam from morning to night. now with the interchange works nearby, its gotten worse. Other views we have heard from the public are poor road systems, congested commercial and industrial lots near houses, etc.

Nice project this…. too bad the waste transfer station will be built right next to it. Was going to buy into it. Good thing didn’t.
Comment by Dennis — February 18, 2006 @ 12:10 pm
Dennis,
ah, yes… things had been a lot different had the waste transfer issue was raised before the launch…
Comment by Administrator — February 18, 2006 @ 12:25 pm
Hey,
The waste transfer station will be build next to which project? Prima Tropical or Mutiara Bukit Jalil?

Comment by Karen — February 4, 2007 @ 10:25 pm
I’m going to sign S&P soon. Survey around the area…Best Buy lah so far….
Comment by wei — March 15, 2007 @ 2:55 pm
For those interested to buy, there are still a few bumi units left for purchase. Grab it before it’s finished.
Comment by tankc — July 23, 2007 @ 6:25 pm
GIANT will be open soon . Good news for mbj buyer .
Comment by michael — July 31, 2007 @ 12:56 am
i m more concern if there will be any road be opened from mutiara bkt jalil to kesas hway without turning to LDP. any1 can provide info of future plan?
Comment by luye — August 5, 2007 @ 7:04 pm
i believe by taking the route towards oug, u may exit to kesas via the awan besar interchange :

Comment by tankc — August 21, 2007 @ 10:53 pm
u can also turn left after the bukit jalil recreational park to access to kesas highway. in near future, the putrajaya-kl expressway will be completed and bukit jalil will have good access to kl as well as putrajaya :

and kesas interchange :

I owned a unit in phase 1 and will be moving into my new house next year. Good response from the buyers since the project was launched. The materials given and workmanship for Mutiara Bukit Jalil are good. Of course, there are some defects but all are considered minor and acceptable. Moreover, developer’s contractor had fixed all the defects that we identified. There is no regret to buy the house in Mutiara Bukit Jalil.
Comment by Valerie — October 4, 2007 @ 10:07 am
anyone know if there would be a perimeter fencing surrounding the whole MBJ when the development is completed?
Comment by tankc — October 18, 2007 @ 10:33 pm
I did ask the developer’s contractor before about the perimeter fencing around MBJ for phase 1. He said they would do it. However, to-date there is still no fence around the Phase 1.
Comment by Valerie — October 19, 2007 @ 12:04 pm
Does anyone know when will they launch the Phase 3?
Comment by Valerie — October 19, 2007 @ 12:07 pm
the developer has already opened up registration for phase 3. you can put your name and contact in their list. once there is a soft launch, they will contact you first to visit. i would think there will be some early bird discount during the soft launch.
Comment by tankc — October 19, 2007 @ 11:12 pm
I will go to view the show unit when they officially launch Phase 3.
Comment by Valerie — November 2, 2007 @ 4:25 pm
Any Phase 1 folk who wants to renovate their house? My contractor is a nice gentleman who provide good workmanship and reasonable quotation.
Comment by Valerie — November 2, 2007 @ 4:27 pm
Hi,
Heard that there is a cemetery plot at mutiara bukit jalil. anybody could confirm this
Comment by Chip — November 26, 2007 @ 2:06 pm
originally i thought it’s a cemetary from the map, but when i drove to the site, i realised it’s actually a hindu temple.
Comment by tankc — November 27, 2007 @ 11:13 am
That day, I passed there and I noticed that there is a project to develop detention centre or camp by DBKL nearby. It is very scary nowadays that we did not know what they will do to land nearby.
Comment by Chip — December 3, 2007 @ 2:05 pm
It’s true that our government likes to do things without proper planning. They never think about the public interest. Build and when it is not efficient, re-build again at another place. Wasted taxpayers money. Really cannot tahan!!!
Comment by valerie — December 6, 2007 @ 1:10 pm
may i know where exactly is the notice to develop a detention centre?
Comment by tankc — December 10, 2007 @ 2:35 pm
The detention center is not that serious, I think the Cemetery & Crematorium is the worst decision by the government, espeacially in such a densely populated area. Please refer to the following link:
http://forum.bandarkinrara.com/index.php?topic=347.0
The detention centre was also discussed here:

Comment by yk — December 10, 2007 @ 3:57 pm
The detention center is not that serious compare to the Cemetery & Crematorium, which I felt is the worst decision by the government, espeacially in such a densely populated area. Please refer to the following link:

Comment by yk — December 10, 2007 @ 4:01 pm
The detention center location is bukit jalil highway heading to bandar bukit jalil right after exit of mutiara bukit jalil/bandar kinrara industrial area. It is currently being fenced up by hoardings. Read here:

Another shocker is the Cemetery & Crematorium in the vicinity. Please read following link to voice your support:

Comment by cel — December 10, 2007 @ 4:31 pm
Not logic at all , should be develop some kind of sport facilities ( futsal , badminton court ….etc ), food court.
Really donno what there are thinking ??????????????
Comment by kc — December 14, 2007 @ 12:35 am
I think the government does not study township or city planning. They just develop according to their wish and never care about the residents over that place.
Comment by Valerie — January 18, 2008 @ 2:25 pm
May be because the place is just too cheap. That’s why the government place all the crematorium n cemetery there. Since inside KL the place is much much more expensive than bukkit jalil area. Frankly speaking it is really abit ulu for the mutiara bukit jalil location. You don’t expect the government to put crematorium n cemetery in Jlan bukit bintang or next to KLCC, don’t you? Unless we all form a legal action to object government decision. Usually will lose unless the developer have the power to do so.
Comment by FCUK IT — February 3, 2008 @ 12:29 pm
i think the most affected residential area would be the alam sutera and kinrara 6. if you go to the mentioned area, it is actually a hill quite high and directly opposite to alam sutera and kinrara 6. not sure how the developer is gonna to sell their bungalow units there.
Comment by as — February 18, 2008 @ 9:47 pm
sorry it should be kinrara 9A1, and not kinrara 6, as mentioned earlier.
Comment by as — February 18, 2008 @ 9:59 pm
Wonder if the exit to kesas will be built as mentioned by the developer. It is not so much for going out to kesas, its about coming into the area so that the residents will not need to make u-turn at kinrara.
heard that phase 3 launching June and priced at 580k and above.

Comment by Administrator — April 11, 2008 @ 10:48 am
Hi,the site photos are great, bought a unit in phase 2A, wonders if anyone know whether they are giving good quality laminated flooring which does not look as plastic as they come? anyone bought phase 2A?
Comment by Crystal — April 12, 2008 @ 7:32 pm
what was the price for phase 2A. was it $448k? mutiara bukit jalil is giving the normal timber strips and not those laminated timber strips for their flooring.
Comment by tkc — April 13, 2008 @ 12:24 pm
Yup, it is RM 448k, S&P said laminated flooring, I think progress reached foundation stage only.
Comment by crystal — April 13, 2008 @ 9:45 pm
phase 2A was launched in ct 2007, the same house as phase 2 but additional 7 aircond points, laminated flooring, brickwall at the back instead of chain link fencing and full tile for drive way.
Comment by crystal — April 13, 2008 @ 10:36 pm
currently bandar kinrara phase 9a1 (senja) is on sales. price is from RM368,888 for a double storey terrace. this phase is almost directly facing the cemetery,
