Why this address

Four things buyers weigh at The Fennel

A freehold, family-sized condo in Sentul East from a large developer. Here is the case, and what to check.

🚆

Rail on the doorstep

The developer points to two train lines and three stations within walking distance, and PropertyGuru places the site about 5 km from the city centre, with links to the DUKE, Sultan Iskandar Highway and SMART Tunnel.

🏊

Pools between the towers

Two Olympic-length saltwater pools are suspended between the paired towers, alongside two clubhouses, a gym and yoga pavilions (PropertyGuru, YTL Land).

🏷️

Freehold at a mid-market price

Homes are freehold and mostly 3 bedrooms of about 1,200 sq ft, with October 2026 asking prices from about RM590,000.

⚖️

What to weigh: supply and record spread

More than 100 units were listed for sale and a similar number for rent on iProperty in October 2026. Recorded prices have ranged widely, from RM900 psf in October 2018 to RM331 psf in June 2023 (EdgeProp), so check recent sales of the same layout.

Is it for you?

Which kind of buyer are you?

The same building suits different people for different reasons. Pick the line that sounds like you.

🏠 Living here yourself

Layouts here run from about 1,186 to 2,927 sq ft. Ask me which stacks get the better view and the least afternoon sun; that changes the price more than the floor.

💰 Buying to rent out

Compare the recorded rents in "The price numbers" above with the instalment on your loan. Smaller layouts usually rent faster; larger ones hold tenants longer.

👨‍👩‍👧 Family with children

Check the school and clinic distances in the location section, the number of car parks per unit and how busy the lifts are at 7.30 am.

✈️ Buying from overseas

Foreigners can only buy above the state minimum price and pay 8% stamp duty from 2026. Ask me which units here qualify before you shortlist.

Straight talk

What I will not hide from you

Every project has trade-offs. These are the ones I would want to know before paying a deposit.

  • ⚠️ A newer project, so many owners are renting out at the same time. Expect competition for tenants for the first few years.
  • ⚠️ Asking prices are not sale prices. Compare any offer with the recorded transacted price per sq ft above before you commit.
