Platinum Melati Residences—Setapak’s latest gem for family-centric sustainable living with LRT connectivity

For decades, the name Platinum Victory has echoed through the streets of Setapak, Kuala Lumpur like a trusted pillar. From the towering silhouettes of PV2, PV3, PV5, PV6, PV13, PV15, PV21, and Platinum Casa Danau to the vibrant commercial pulse of PV128, The Palette @ Danau Kota, and The Palette @ The Ark, its developments have not merely reshaped the skyline, but have formed the very heartbeat of a thriving urban enclave.

Stretching its ambition further across the Klang Valley, with projects like Platinum Arena and PSV1, Platinum Victory has illustrated that its formula for success transcends geography.

Now, returning to the familiar soils of Setapak, the developer is set to paint a bold new stroke across the city by unveiling Platinum Melati Residences. Nestled on 3.465 acres of leasehold land off Jalan Taman Melati 1, this two-block development comprises 556 units of residential apartments. Newly launched in August, with completion expected by December 2029, Platinum Melati Residences serves as a reaffirmation of Platinum Victory’s enduring bond with the Setapak community.

In Platinum Melati Residences, every unit tells a different story—crafted for families of all sizes and dreams of every scale. Firstly, Type B and B(M), offering 1,100 sq ft with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, starting from RM677,500, are ideal for young families, students, or first-time homeowners looking for a practical and affordable space. For growing families who need extra space, Type C/C(M) elevates the experience with a 1,310 sq ft layout, featuring 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and is priced from RM795,500. As an alternative, Type D/D(M) stretches to 1,375 sq ft, with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, and is priced from RM861,500.

All in one place: a hub for learning, lifestyle and wellbeing

Platinum Melati Residences boasts a location just 1km from the Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology (TAR UMT) campus, anchoring the area’s academic appeal and making it an ideal choice for students seeking both convenience and focus. Beyond its lifestyle advantages, this proximity also positions the development as a strong investment opportunity—offering steady rental demand from the continuous influx of students, faculty, and young professionals. With Setapak’s proven track record of high rental yields and TAR UMT’s ever-growing population, Platinum Melati Residences represents not just a comfortable home, but a smart long-term asset with strong capital appreciation potential and consistent rental returns.

For younger learners, the neighbourhood is equally well equipped, with SK Taman Melati, SJKC Wangsa Maju and SMK Taman Melati providing trusted options for primary and secondary schooling.

Surrounded by a vibrant retail landscape, residents can look forward to a dynamic mix of fashion, food, and essentials in KL East Mall, The Palette, and Setapak Central Mall. At The Palette, a curated selection of cafes and restaurants creates a lively atmosphere perfect for weekend hangouts and building memories. Whether you are stocking up on groceries, browsing the latest trend, or enjoying a meal out, this prime location promises a well-rounded retail experience.

To ensure that peace of mind is woven into the lifestyle in Platinum Melati Residences, residents are also well covered with the medical accessibility in this region. The presence of facilities such as Columbia Asia Setapak, KPJ Tawakal, Hospital Kuala Lumpur, and Hospital Pusrawi is reassuring, and deliver the critical support in times of need.

Seamless accessibility: walkable to LRT and beyond

Connectivity is built into the blueprint of Platinum Melati Residences. Just 800m from LRT Taman Melati, it offers quick access to the city’s rail network, making it a highly sought-after address among daily commuters who rely on public transport for seamless urban mobility. With close proximity to Terminal Bersepadu Gombak (TBG), residents enjoy the convenience of an integrated transport hub that connects them to express buses, the LRT, and future ECRL services.

At the same time, direct access to the Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2), Duta-Ulu Klang Expressway (DUKE), and Jalan Genting Kelang ensures smooth drives to every corner of the Klang Valley and beyond, positioning the development as a gateway to various destinations.

Facilities that promise endless lifestyle options

At Platinum Melati Residences, convenience begins the moment you arrive—thanks to a thoughtfully designed speed ramp car park that ensures smooth, efficient access to multi-storey parking levels, reducing congestion and wait times for residents. The parking area is also well covered, providing added comfort and safety for residents in all weathers.

Beyond this, the development unfolds into a vibrant ecosystem of lifestyle ease. First, security is paramount, with 24-hour surveillance and perimeter fencing. Daily convenience is also at your doorstep with laundry services and retail stores within the development.

Sustainability in every detail

Over 30% of Platinum Melati Residences’ roof is dedicated to solar panels, harnessing clean and renewable energy, while rainwater harvesting systems ensure that irrigation is both sustainable and efficient. The landscape is thoughtfully curated, with over 50% planted with drought-tolerant species, reducing water consumption and thriving naturally in the local climate.

In the very foundation of its build, green cement is used to replace 10% of traditional materials, lowering carbon emissions during construction. The application of a siphonic system, and system formwork is also a testament to sustainable building practices by saving construction materials and reducing material waste.

In the common area, 80% of lift lobbies and staircases are naturally ventilated, reducing the need for mechanical cooling. All lifts are powered by AC Variable Voltage Variable Frequency (VVVF), motor drives, making them energy efficient.

Inside the homes, low-volatile organic compound (VOC) paints and environmentally-friendly adhesives create healthier indoor air quality.
