Why this address
Four things buyers weigh at The Sentral Residences
Few KL addresses beat this one for transport. Here is the full picture.
The airport train downstairs
The KLIA Ekspres leaves from KL Sentral, so the airport is about half an hour away without a car.
Generous sizes, low density
752 units across two 55-storey towers, with the smallest homes at 1,087 sq ft and private lift lobbies.
Freehold, opposite the gardens
The land is freehold, and Perdana Botanical Gardens is across the road.
What to weigh: traffic and price history
KL Sentral is congested at peak hours, and recorded prices are well below the 2017 peak, which helps a buyer and hurts an older owner.

The recorded numbers
What units here actually sell and rent for
Recorded sales and asking prices are different things. Transacted figures come from deals recorded with the government valuation department and republished by property portals; asking figures are what owners are listing at. Use the first to judge the second.
| Measure | Figure | Source and date |
|---|---|---|
| Transacted price median, last 48 months | RM1,114 psf · typical RM961–1,218 psf | EdgeProp, viewed 2 Oct 2026 |
| Asking price for sale | Mostly RM900k–2.2m · about RM830–1,260 psf | PropertyGuru listings, Sep 2026 |
| Asking rent 1+1 and 2 bedrooms | RM3,900–4,500 a month | PropertyGuru listings, Sep 2026 |
| Asking rent 3 and 4 bedrooms | RM7,500–9,500 a month | PropertyGuru listings, Sep 2026 |
EdgeProp estimates the gross yield at about 4.4%. The highest recorded psf was in 2017, well above today’s median.
Track record
About MRCB Land and Quill
Malaysian Resources Corporation Berhad (MRCB) is the master developer of KL Sentral, and built The Sentral Residences with Quill as its joint-venture partner.
MRCB has developed much of the KL Sentral business district around the station, which is why the residences connect so closely to the rail hub and Nu Sentral.

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 1,087 to 4,327 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.

I work with local families, investors and buyers from overseas. If a unit is not right for what you need, I will say so; that is usually worth more than a brochure.
