Despite witnessing a marginal dip in overall property transaction volume in 2025 (3.5% year-on-year (y-o-y)), many high-value deals continued to move the market. In fact, the National Property Information Centre (Napic) noted that transaction values rose by 12.5% y-o-y in 3Q2025.
Kuala Lumpur, in particular, recorded some eye-catching residential transactions, with Napic data identifying the highest grossing deals of the period.
EdgeProp takes a closer look at these big-ticket sales to highlight the top five landed, and non-landed home transactions that occurred over the past year.
Common denominators stood out among the top performing properties in the capital district, as well-heeled buyers continued to attach a premium to prime locations close to the city centre, or with convenient access to it. Proximity to major highways, public transportation, retail and lifestyle amenities, international schools, and healthcare facilities also played a crucial role in elevating the appeal of upmarket neighbourhoods.
In the landed segment, upscale low-density residential areas within rare leafy green pockets that boasted easy access to prime urban centres continued to represent the peak of luxury.
For non-landed properties, trophy high-rise developments in the KL city centre, and those within master-planned communities such as Desa ParkCity drew strong interest, with its appeal of integrated amenities, convenient connectivity, and lifestyle-focused facilities.
TOP 5 LANDED HOME DEALS IN 2025
1. Bukit Tunku residence sold at RM40m
Bukit Tunku (commonly known as Kenny Hill) ranks among KL’s top luxury residential areas, known for its low-density community of luxury villas and bungalows, as well as its verdant surroundings.

Situated just 5km from the central business district, residents get easy access to premium malls such as Publika Shopping Gallery, Plaza Damas, and Maju Junction, alongside international schools, and private healthcare facilities, including KPJ Sentosa KL Specialist Hospital.
The premium appeal of the neighbourhood has unsurprisingly resulted in two of the highest-valued landed property transactions in 2025, and the first was a sprawling villa located along the tranquil nook of Jalan Lurah Tunku in the west-facing portion of Bukit Tunku.
Sold for RM40 million, the property is a double-storey mansion on 65,855.66 sq ft of land.
