Strolling along Jalan Abdullah, one would enjoy the essence of tranquillity in possibly the last pristine residential parcel within Bangsar. The street is home to bungalows and semi-detached properties built between 1929 and 1940, giving one the feeling of living amidst history.
Jalan Abdullah is perpendicular to Jalan Kemuja, where some old shophouses are reminiscent of the rich architecture of Malaysia's pre-war colonial developments. The popular artisan food-street offers rich and tantalising international delights that would excite everyone's taste buds; choose from European, Italian and Mediterranean fusion dishes at the delectable Lisette Café, Apollo and the famous Coley Cocktail Bar, which made it into Asia's 50 Best Bars 2019.
Prospective property purchasers can now become part of the nation's historical fabric via The Lantern Bangsar by Bangsar Rising Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Continental Development Corporation (CDC), a premium Taiwanese property developer of high-end projects in gateway cities across the globe.
The tower offering exclusive serviced suites sits on a 0.83-acre freehold parcel along Jalan Abdullah and near Jalan Kemuja.
The 180 Sky-Semi-Ds range from 561 to 1,092 sq ft, with layouts ranging from one-bedroom to three-bedroom dual-key configurations, pieced perfectly to suit the multi-faceted lifestyles of expats and KL frequenters.
The Lantern Bangsar will provide exciting vantage points from Jalan Abdullah, thanks to the unique and strategically placed themed sky gardens. From these viewing decks on levels 30 and 33, residents can enjoy exceptional city sights from the comfort and safety of their central Bangsar abode.
A showcase of sensory experiences
Visualise driving home to a stylish paradise ensconced in an urban suburb. As you draw closer to the porte cochère, you realise its vastness. The 33ft-high ceiling is merely the tip of the iceberg. The lobby is hugged warmly by layers of lush greenery that exude a woody, herbal and stimulating aroma; an exclusive forest made up of an interplay of flora, three to six metres in height.
This area will have a collection that would be the envy of flora enthusiasts, featuring a multi-shaded green canopy of over six species of trees and shrubs, resulting in a layered rainforest effect.
As you walk farther in towards the entrance, you will be gently soothed by water that flows along the floating walkway; a tranquil pathway into the grandeur of The Lantern Bangsar.
Upon arrival at the lobby, there is a personalised concierge service to greet you. The concierge team is on hand to make arrangements for you, including flight, yacht, taxi and airport transfer bookings, securing reservations for upcoming events and assisting with the maintenance (wear and tear) of your unit, as well as managing the sale and rental of your precious Bangsar abode.
On your way up, you could make a pit stop at level 9 for enjoyable activities, including a swim at the revitalising 32m by 7m infinity saltwater pool, from which you can capture the remarkable pillars of Central Kuala Lumpur, framed by the majestic Federal Hill.
The highlights of the property are the three sky expanses situated on levels 30 and 33. From each hanging garden of The Lantern Bangsar, residents will enjoy 360° views of Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya, as well as the abstract strokes created by a myriad of blossoms, including the delicately scented Vanda "Miss Joaquim" that gives off the scent of femininity and graciousness, and other species of colourful flowers that will truly serenade one's olfactory senses with an exceptional bouquet of scents.
In the sky garden on level 30, tall bamboo hedges will rustle in the soft breeze, resulting in a multi-sensory experience for those that enjoy the finer things in life.
Seamless connectivity to business districts and the world
As it is a mere 350m from the Bangsar Light Rapid Transit (LRT) Station, the property is easily accessible to several business district such as KL Sentral and Mid Valley (both are just one stop away), KLCC (six stops away) and Bangsar South (two stops away). The Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) via KL Sentral, is just a train ride away.
