Binjai Residency KLCC: Price, Rent and a 6.8% Yield at a Freehold Tower Off Jalan Ampang

Binjai Residency trades at a median of RM725 psf over the past four years, per EdgeProp, and a typical 2,208 sq ft home asks about RM1.5 million in October 2026. That buys more than 2,000 sq ft of freehold space a three-minute walk from Ampang Park station.

Key facts: about 100 freehold residences in a single 32-storey tower completed in 2007; standard homes from 2,096 sq ft; and a gross yield of about 6.8% on asking rents.

The residence

Binjai Residency was planned for households, not portfolios: every standard home is a 3+1+2 layout above 2,000 sq ft, with four units to a floor on the executive levels. Shared facilities include an infinity pool, gymnasium, tennis court, multipurpose hall, reading room, business centre, barbecue area, children’s playground and 24-hour security.

Binjai Residency is not The Binjai on the Park

The names are close and the streets are shared, so the two are often confused. They are separate buildings, each with its own developer and price level.

• Binjai Residency is one 32-storey tower of about 100 units on Lorong Binjai, built by Amity Property Group and completed in 2007.
• The Binjai on the Park is a pair of 44- and 45-storey towers holding 171 residences directly on KLCC Park, built by Layar Intan, a subsidiary of KLCC Holdings, and completed at the end of 2008.

Our review of The Binjai on the Park covers that building in full. Every figure in this article refers to Binjai Residency only.

The numbers: what Binjai Residency costs today

Current asking prices on PropertyGuru, EdgeProp and iProperty:

Layout	Size	Asking price	Asking psf
3+1+2 bedrooms, executive	2,098 sq ft	RM2.08M	RM991
3+1+2 bedrooms, executive	2,208 sq ft	RM1.48M - 1.50M	RM670 - 679
Penthouse with private pool	6,900 sq ft	RM9.5M	RM1,377
Penthouse, auction reserve	7,126 sq ft	RM4.95M	RM695

Recorded sales sit close to the lower end of that range. EdgeProp records a median of RM725 psf over the past four years, within a range of RM657 - 828 psf. Brickz shows a median of RM660 psf and RM1.445 million across six sales between May 2025 and April 2026.

Individual deals include a 2,207 sq ft unit on level 14 at RM1.8 million (RM816 psf) in May 2024, a 7,384 sq ft penthouse on level 30 at RM6.2 million (RM840 psf) in February 2024, and a 2,174 sq ft unit on level 13 at RM1.38 million (RM635 psf) in April 2026.

Three observations:

• The entry ticket is about RM1.4 - 1.5 million for 2,200 sq ft. Space on this scale, for that sum, is rare within walking distance of KLCC.
• Prices have moved sideways for a decade. StarProperty records 2015-2016 sales of RM1.73 - 2.0 million for the same layouts, so today’s buyer pays roughly what buyers paid ten years ago.
• The penthouses are the value play. At RM700 - 1,400 psf for 6,000 sq ft-plus with a private pool, they sit far below new-launch prices in the city centre.

Binjai Residency rent and yield

Asking rents for the standard 2,100 - 2,200 sq ft three-bedroom run from about RM7,000 to RM10,000 a month, with most furnished units at RM8,500 - 9,000. Mudah lists a partly furnished 2,208 sq ft unit at RM8,500. Penthouses ask from about RM12,000, reaching RM35,000 for a 6,796 sq ft unit.

Taking a 2,208 sq ft unit at RM8,500 a month (RM102,000 a year):

• On the asking price of RM1.5 million: gross yield about 6.8%.
• On the EdgeProp transacted median of RM725 psf (about RM1.6 million): gross yield about 6.4%.

We publish the higher figure, about 6.8% on asking price, before maintenance, furnishing, vacancy and tax. That is a strong income return for a freehold KLCC address, and it is earned through a low entry price rather than rising rents.

The address: location and access

Lorong Binjai sits on the northern side of the KLCC precinct, between Jalan Ampang and Jalan Binjai. The embassies along Jalan Ampang, the private banks and the offices of the Golden Triangle are all close by. Distances below are our own approximate estimates by road or on foot.

Destination	Approximate distance
Ampang Park LRT and MRT stations	About 300 m, a 3-minute walk
KLCC LRT station and Suria KLCC	About 800 m, a 10-minute walk
Persiaran KLCC MRT station	About 1.2 km
Conlay MRT station	About 1.5 km
Jalan Tun Razak and the AKLEH on-ramp	About 1 km
Pavilion Kuala Lumpur	About 2.5 km
The Exchange TRX	About 4 km, 10-15 minutes by car
Prince Court Medical Centre	About 1.5 km
Gleneagles Hospital Kuala Lumpur	About 2 km
Tung Shin Hospital	About 3.5 km
Sayfol International School, Jalan Ampang	About 4 km

Why buyers choose it

1. Space per ringgit. Every standard unit is above 2,000 sq ft, at roughly a third of the psf of new branded towers in KLCC.
2. Freehold title in the city centre.
3. Low density. About 100 homes in one tower, with four units per floor on the executive levels.
4. Income. Gross yields near 7% are high for a high end luxury condo address.

What to weigh

• Age. At 19 years old, the building has older lifts, finishes and services than new launches; a refurbishment budget belongs in the purchase plan.
• Flat capital growth. Transacted prices today are close to 2015 levels, which suits an income buyer more than a growth buyer.
• Access roads. Lorong Binjai and Jalan Binjai are narrow, and peak-hour traffic around Jalan Ampang is heavy.
• Measured trading. Brickz records six sales in the twelve months to April 2026, so an exit is best planned with time in hand.

How it compares with TRX

For a buyer weighing a KLCC investment property against Kuala Lumpur’s newest district, TRX offers what Binjai Residency cannot:

• The city’s only MRT Line 1 and Line 2 interchange inside the district, at TRX station.
• A 10-acre rooftop park at the centre of the master plan.
• About 30,000 office workers at full build-out, a deep tenant pool for luxury residences.
• Capital value. TRX Residences has a transacted median of RM2,265 psf with asking-rent yields of about 5%, prices that reflect demand for new, master-planned homes rather than a decade of flat trading.

Binjai Residency is an income play on an established building. TRX is a long-term position in Kuala Lumpur’s new financial district, with newer stock, better transit and a rising price trend.

Against other Asian capitals, our KL vs Asia radius maps show RM5 million buying about 3,043 sq ft near KLCC, against 372 sq ft in Hong Kong, 665 in Singapore and 699 in Tokyo.

Our view

Binjai Residency is one of KLCC’s most honest propositions: large, quiet freehold homes at prices that have barely moved in a decade, and a gross yield of about 6.8% that few city-centre towers match. Buy it for space and rent, budget for refurbishment, and look to TRX for capital growth. Our luxury housing in Kuala Lumpur 2026 overview sets both within the wider prime market.
