Analysis

Tan & Tan Developments is an established and trusted developer owned by IGB, a main board listed company in Bursa Malaysia. The developer has involved in loads of residential development all over Kuala Lumpur as well in other parts of the region including Desa Kudalari, Tara, Fernlea Court, Hampshire Park, Desa U-Thant, 39 Lingkungan U-Thant, Kenny Vale, Desa Damansara 2, and Damai Terrace to name a few. Currently, the developer is working on One Jelatek, Laman Sierramas West and Tanamera.

Looking at the layout of Hampshire Place in the show unit, the finishing and space utilization seem to be good, just like most Tan & Tan previous products. All units come with an island for dry kitchen and kitchen cabinet built-up. The kitchen is equipped with hood, hob and oven. There are air conditioners for bedroom and living hall, and two units of 1-HP air-conditioners for studio unit.

In terms of floor furnishing, Hampshire Place is furnished with marble for the master bathroom, timber strips for the bedroom, and porcelain tiles for the living, dining and dry kitchen. Water heater is also placed in each bathroom. Besides that, it also comes with built-in wardrobe which is pretty spacey. Hampshire Place consists of two blocks – residential block and office block. This has created great rental opportunities to residential block as the units can be easily rented to employees (majority expatriates) working in office block and other surrounding office buildings in KLCC.

Hampshire Place is also a good project for investment. With only 186 units, it is definitely a low density high-end condo. Compared with a newly launched nearby project – Mirage Residence, located at Jalan Yap Kwan Seng Rd and just a stone’s throw distance from Hampshire Place, whose launch price is already above RM 1100, Hampshire Place’s launch price was around RM 600 and current subsale price is around RM 950.

In terms of location, both projects are near to the Petronas Towers but Persiaran Hampshire Rd where Hampshire Place is located, is not as congested as Jalan Yap Kwan Seng Rd which often sees heavy traffic taking short cut between Jalan Tun Razak and Jalan Ampang at daytime. This indicates there is a great room for the property value of Hampshire Place to appreciate in the near future.
