M Aruna, which offers serene lifestyles amid natural surroundings in the heart of Rawang, comprises 565 units of double-storey linked homes and townhouses built over 4 phases, spanning across 90 acres of lush landscape.

Situated in the matured and growing township of Rawang, M Aruna is the third development in the area by Mah Sing Group Bhd, one of the first developers to venture into the district. The first two townships were M Residence and M Residence 2.

Understanding prevailing market demands, Mah Sing developed M Aruna as an integrated township with a selection of link homes, targeting first-time homebuyers, young families and upgraders who prefer landed homes not far from the Kuala Lumpur city centre.

With a selling price from RM550,000 per unit, Phase One of the development offers 196 leasehold residential units in a guarded residential area. The built-up area of its units is about 1,700 sf (with land area of 20 ft x 60 ft).

Phase Two (Carya) of the development consists of 188 double-storey linked homes, similarly having a built-up size of 1,700 sf, but with a larger land area of 20 ft x 75 ft. The homes come with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, as well as a front porch that can fit 2 vehicles. The selling price for Phase Two units starts from RM560,000.

The homes are aligned in the north-south direction to maximise the use of natural daylight, while promoting energy savings. All units will be constructed using industrialised building system techniques, an advanced and eco-friendly construction technology with benefits including reduced labour, construction and material requirements.

M Aruna’s design includes distinctive landscaping emphasising quality living environments, with open green spaces to unwind and a whimsically themed central park, featuring a treehouse concept playground, half basketball court and more.

Other facilities include an outdoor gym, hammock areas, picnic grounds, a jogging track, bicycle lane, bike track and reflexology zones.

Rawang’s distance from Kuala Lumpur is often a concern for prospective purchasers. However, in terms of accessibility, the township benefits from the connectivity brought by the Kuala Lumpur-Kuala Selangor Expressway (LATAR) which opened in 2011, reducing travel time to the city to less than an hour.

The additional route also connects to the North-South Expressway (NSE), which allows residents to travel easily to Sungai Buloh, Bandar Sri Damansara, Kepong, Damansara, Subang, Kuala Lumpur and Shah Alam.

For those seeking to reduce their travelling time during peak hours to the city, they can also drive to the Rawang KTM (Keretapi Tanah Melayu) station, located about 10km away from the project.

Aside from its accessibility and connectivity, M Aruna offers residents convenient access to everything they need for a balanced lifestyle.

Surrounded by 12 primary and secondary schools, including Straits International School which is situated right in the neighbourhood, the township also leverages on increasing visitorship to nearby commercial and retail hubs such as AEON Rawang, Pasar Raya NSK, GIANT Hypermarket Rawang and Tesco Hypermarket Rawang. Nearby medical centres include KPJ Rawang and Hospital Sungai Buloh.

Rawang’s pull factors have drawn numerous major developers such as Gamuda Land Sdn Bhd, with ongoing developments such as Gamuda Gardens and Kundang Estate, as well as Tanco Holdings Bhd with Bandar Country Homes, GuocoLand (Malaysia) Bhd with Emerald East and the Low Yat Group with Bandar Tasik Puteri.

Primarily known for its industrial projects, this influx of residential developments is changing the character of Rawang into a landed haven close to the city. However, it still benefits from its industrial roots, with the potential to attract and accommodate a large workforce catchment.
