If you’ve been exploring buying properties at North KL,
you’ve probably heard people mention:
👉 KL Metropolis Development
Some still think it’s “just that MITEC area”.
But from what I’m seeing on the ground…
👉 This place is slowly shaping into something much bigger, a full township in progress.
Let me break it down for you properly.
1. Not Just a Project: This Is a Full Township Play.
KL Metropolis is not just one building or one condo.
👉 It’s a master-planned township right beside Mont Kiara & Dutamas. Focused for Government Sector.
With:
- MITEC (international exhibition centre)
- Future office towers
- Retail & lifestyle components
- Hotels & commercial developments
And most importantly:
👉 It’s still growing actively right now
2. Location: Right in the Centre of North KL Movement
One thing KL Metropolis gets very right:
👉 Location positioning
You are surrounded by:
- Mont Kiara
- Dutamas
- Segambut
- Jalan Kuching corridor
And from here, you can move easily to:
- KL City
- Damansara
- Kepong / Bandar Sri Damansara
👉 This makes it very central for North KL living
3. Accessibility Is Getting Even Better (Not Just Roads Anymore)
Here’s something many people overlook.
Last time, one weakness of Mont Kiara was:
👉 Lack of public transport
But KL Metropolis is different.
👉 MRT3 is coming into this area
👉 Road upgrades are already happening
👉 Direct flyover from Segambut into KL Metropolis is improving access
So moving forward:
👉 This area won’t just depend on driving anymore
That’s a big upgrade compared to older prime areas.
4. Lifestyle Components Are Already Coming In
A township only works when people can actually live there.
And this is where things are starting to get real:
👉 AEON has launched at KL Midtown
👉 Village Grocer is already in Metropolis Galleria
👉 WOLO Mont Kiara is coming in nearby.
👉 5-star hotels like Grant Hyatt are entering the area
This is important because:
👉 When strong retail + hospitality brands enter
👉 It shows long-term confidence in the area
5. Future Growth: Offices, Medical & More
This is where the long-term story gets stronger.
KL Metropolis is planned to have:
- More office towers (bringing working population)
- Medical centre / healthcare components
- Continuous commercial expansion
What does this mean?
👉 More people working here
👉 More people staying nearby
👉 More demand for surrounding properties
This is how a township builds its ecosystem.
6. Price Positioning: This Is the Window Right Now
Let’s compare honestly.
- Mont Kiara → Already at peak pricing range
- KL Metropolis surrounding areas → Still entering growth phase
So today:
👉 You can still get in at a more reasonable price
👉 While being next to a future township
That’s why many buyers are not buying “inside” Mont Kiara anymore.
They are looking at:
- Duta North
- Segambut
- Nearby Dutamas projects
👉 Same area, better entry
7. Why Buyers Are Positioning Around Duta North & Segambut
This is the strategy part most people miss.
Instead of paying premium upfront…
👉 Buyers position themselves around KL Metropolis
Because:
- Close enough to benefit
- Lower entry price
- Higher upside potential
This is why:
👉 Duta North is getting attention
👉 Segambut property searches are increasing
8. But Let’s Be Real: It’s Still Not Fully Mature
Same thing I tell all my clients.
KL Metropolis today is:
👉 Still in development phase
So:
- Not everything is completed yet
- Some areas still quiet
- Full lifestyle not 100% there yet
But…
👉 That’s exactly why pricing is still reasonable
My Honest Take
From what I’m seeing:
👉 Development here is moving quite fast
With:
- MRT3 coming
- Retail already operating
- Hotels entering
- Offices planned
👉 The ecosystem is forming, not just talk anymore
So… Is KL Metropolis the Next Township?
If you ask me:
👉 Yes, but it’s still early stage
And that’s the OPPORTUNITY.
Because once:
- MRT is completed
- Offices are running
- Lifestyle fully established
👉 This area will feel very different already

Final Thought
Most people only buy into a township…
👉 After it becomes successful
But by then:
👉 Prices are already high
Right now, KL Metropolis is in that:
👉 “growing fast, but not fully priced in” stage
And that’s usually where the smarter buyers start looking.
