Does this wonderful landscape look familiar? Yes, they are indeed caves. To be exact, they are Batu Caves and this condo is situated right opposite.
Our balcony-less living room. No glass door here but the large windows make up for any claustrophobic feeling anyone might have.
Cosy little space for the kitchen leading out to the wet area.
The so-called 'wet area' for one's kitchen / washing machine.
No spectacular KLCC view here but hey, at least you know you have lots of neighbours around. Feel the semangat kejiranan coming alive yet?
Let's head to the rooms - there are 3 rooms (including the master) + 2 bathrooms.
All rooms come with a laminated wooden flooring and the same huge windows.
You can see the master bathroom and the other bedroom from here.
The only given (really) basic amenities given.
Hallway of the unit.
For a quick getaway, our unit happens to be very near to the exit leading to the lifts.
Lots of natural sunlight coming in!
Ours is the first unit (for peace and quiet!). Here's along the corridor...
Oh neighbour, you left your door wide open....
Enough of our very bare unit for now.
I'm saving the best part for last.....
Now, despite having a Sky Lounge, Sky Gym and Sky Karaoke ('SKY' being it all overlooks the outside scenery), unfortunately we couldn't get access into any of those as they weren't completed yet.
Hence, i only have the luxury of showing you their mini park, children's playground and pool.
Be prepared to gaze in awe...
Swimming here would be like soaking in the pool of eternal youth, worry-free and relaxing amidst the lush greenery and beautiful backdrop of Batu Caves. Hence, the name 'Amara' which means 'Eternal' in German.
Not a bad deal eh for something we paid slightly below RM 300K for, plus a free iPad2 (back in 2011) thrown in. A truly spontaneous decision we made about half hour after walking into the developer's showroom 3 years back. Something about seeing the displayed condo units rapidly being filled up with bright red 'SOLD' stickers got us sucked into the 'kiasu-ness' of it all.
And now, it's just a waiting game for the best deal.
Hope the wait is not 'amara' though.
