Elite Apartments, Taman Mas Sepang
Masteron are quite in the news for all sorts of matters these days. They have recently launched the Calisa Residences condominiums in Taman Mas Sepang before Chinese New Year, and now are following up with a more affordable apartment in the same development called Elite Apartments.
Calisa is quite affordably priced, but probably due to the location, a lot of people we know we saying that it was a little too out of the to own an apartment there. Besides, the whole Puchong-Sepang area is teeming with new projects, both landed and apartments that are competing for the buyers’ attention, offering better location, pricing or facilities.
But for those who found Calisa still to expensive for that kind of build-up, now there is Elite Apartments, with almost the same build-up, but more of lower specs apartment-type living. No, actually, Calisa had smaller units (775 to 1,051sq.ft.), although this was infamously ‘subject to change’, their pricing was about 30% than here.
For our take on the location and accessibility, check out the review on Calisa Residences here.
There are quite a number of earlier phases of apartments here, and this actually Block ‘E’ in the cluster of buildings you can see as you enter this area. There is a square of shoplots in front of the apartments for convenience, but there is little else in this area, as a lot of the surrounding plots of land are yet to be developed.
But enough about other condos. There are 8 storeys of in a single block, with 16 units per floor. There aren’t any units on the ground floor, where the common facilities are. There is one badminton court and a small little swimming pool for the residents. The developer is banking on the nearby Kelab Mas which is shared with residents from other condos and nearby developments. The layout overall apartment floor is interestingly done, all the units are linked together in close proximity like pigeonholes, save for two special corner units that are slightly separated from the others.
There are actually 3 types of units, the basic ones are 872 and 818sq.ft. All have 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. The living is and dining is very small to accommodate a third room at your side as you enter the unit. Maybe they should have done away with the balcony. The special corner unit is larger at 1,248sq.ft. and has an extra store / maid’s.
Simple layout, simple concept. However at the cheapest unit price of RM107k, it is not entirely very cheap. Comparatively, Baiduri Courts in Bandar Bukit Puchong is going for RM72k (although units are slightly smaller) and Cahaya Apartments in Seri Kembangan is priced from RM100k and the size is slightly bigger.
But the developer is offering some packages along with the units. Check with them for details.

Quite a review.
I’m a residence in Penaga Mas Apartment, one soccer field away from the construction site of Elite Apartment. I’ve been staying here for 2+ years now. I would say this is kind of a low density township (currently). But with the
completion of new projects such as Spring Court, later Elite, and Calisa, this could boost the economic growth here.
On the bright side, here’s what Taman Mas Puchong/Sepang can offer
- 2km to Tasik Buaya - good for kaki pancing, and just to bring your family for a fresh air. Maintained by MPSJ
- ~5km to soon-to-be-completed Bandar Saujana Putra toll-exit. Its under development, heard its going to be completed end of year, finger-crossed.
- Basic amenities available in walking distance: Car/motorcycle workshops, clinic, convenience store, mamak/thai/chinese restaurant, surau, misc store etc
- Primary/secondary school around ~5km in Puchong Utama
- 1km to Putra Prima’s hypermarket site (according to Putra Prima masterplan)
-I’m working in Cyberjaya, and journey only 20 minutes.
-Public transport established, Taman MasPudu Raya (Bus Sri Indah 574A), end-to-end takes 90minutes in normal traffic, Rm3.20 per trip.
-Soon to be developed LRT station in Taman Meranti/Tasik Puchong, which is arnd 7-9km.
-Pasar Malam on Taman Mas every Wednesday night.
And on the dark side
last time it is. But now its slowly developing, and in future I’m sure its going to be a happy place to live in 
- Accessibility. Currently is quite far (5-6km) to reach Puchong LDP with only 1 access road. However, traffic is smoothly flowing. There’s a plan to connect to Puchong Prima via Puchong Tekali. No idea when this going to materialize. But access to Elite going to happen end of this year hopefully, and can become one alternative for office commuting.
- Expats. This is another problem in terms of security. Due to the place being developed by workers mainly from Indonesia, this place quite crowded with them. However, don’t worry as police patrol comes often. And so far no serious crime reported here.
- Slowly developing. Some friends who came here always told me that this is more like a ghost town.
