Radium Development Bhd made a deliberate decision when planning Radium Evara in Kepong. Rather than concentrating solely on compact residential layouts, the developer chose to offer three- and four-bedroom homes starting from 950 sq ft, recognising that many owner-occupiers are purchasing properties they intend to live in for years.

The approach reflects how household requirements have evolved, as growing families and multi-generational households place greater importance on functionality and adaptability.

Located within the mature township of Kepong, Radium Evara offers practical home designs supported by established neighbourhood amenities, connectivity and access to nature and its “A Presence of Place” philosophy, emphasising the importance of creating homes that respond to residents’ needs while fostering a stronger connection with their surroundings and community.

Space for changing household needs

With a gross development value (GDV) of RM435mil, the residential development will comprise 558 units.

For buyers seeking larger homes, Radium Evara offers three layout types with prices starting from RM450,000. Radium Evara offers a range of unit types designed to accommodate different household needs and lifestyles. 

Newlyweds and first-time homebuyers may find the 950 sq ft Type B—featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms—a practical choice with plenty of room to accommodate their future needs. For empty nesters, the 1,100 sq ft Type C, offering 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, provides flexibility for visiting family members or extra personal space.

Meanwhile, growing families and upgraders seeking more spacious living arrangements can consider the 1,250 sq ft Type D, which boasts 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.

It also caters to buyers who value the advantages of an established Kepong township over a traditional city-centre address.

For Radium, the emphasis is on ensuring that the homes remain functional as residents’ circumstances change, rather than focusing solely on their immediate requirements.

Why Kepong makes sense

As one of Kuala Lumpur’s mature townships, Kepong offers an existing network of infrastructure, commercial activity and everyday amenities that supports residential living.

In terms of accessibility, Radium Evara is located along the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2), with direct access to the highway. This provides connections to key roads, including Jalan Kuching, the Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway, KL-Karak Highway and Selayang-Kepong Highway.

For those who prefer public transport, the operational Metro Prima MRT station is approximately 1.8km from the development, providing commuters with a convenient alternative to driving. With access to the MRT Putrajaya Line, residents can travel to work and other destinations while avoiding traffic congestion and the hassle of finding parking.

The township’s public transport connectivity is complemented by primary and secondary schools, healthcare facilities, retail outlets, amenities and lifestyle conveniences. 

Kepong also offers proximity to greenery, with Radium Evara located adjacent to Kepong Metropolitan Park. Residents will have direct access to the park and lake, providing opportunities for outdoor activities, wellbeing and community interaction. 

Meanwhile, the Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM), approximately 2.7km away, offers a natural retreat with lush forest surroundings and scenic walking trails.

These attributes form part of Radium’s intention to develop homes that draw on the strengths of their surrounding neighbourhood rather than existing as standalone residential projects.

Building around people and communities

Radium Evara’s planning reflects the developer’s broader corporate Building Good philosophy which extends beyond constructing buildings to creating communities and making a positive contribution to society.

This commitment is reflected in the development’s planned facilities which cater to different recreational and social activities. A gymnasium, basketball court, swimming pool, wading pool, sauna, bamboo garden and yoga deck provide options for exercise and relaxation.

Residents will also have access to a multipurpose hall that can be converted into pickleball and basketball courts, alongside a herb garden, pavilion and barbecue area for social gatherings. A playground and multigenerational activity area further provide spaces for residents of different ages to interact and spend time together.

The developer’s design priorities include encouraging natural light and ventilation where possible, incorporating greenery and providing access to open spaces. These considerations are intended to support healthier residential environments and complement the development’s community-oriented approach.

For Radium, sustainability also extends to the long-term social and economic relevance of its projects. The objective is to create homes that remain desirable to occupy within communities that can continue to thrive over time.

Staying measured in an uncertain market

According to Radium, the response during Radium Evara’s preview activities has been encouraging, with visitors showing appreciation for Kepong’s location, family-oriented layouts and overall development concept.

Nevertheless, the developer acknowledges that market uncertainty has influenced how buyers evaluate their property choices. Rather than fundamentally changing demand, Radium believes periods of uncertainty tend to make purchasers more discerning about where they buy, who they buy from and whether a development offers lasting value.

Recognising the cyclical nature of the property industry, Radium maintains that short-term market fluctuations are inevitable. However, it believes thoughtfully planned developments in well-connected communities, designed around residents’ needs, are generally better positioned to remain resilient over time.

With current market indicators suggesting cautious optimism rather than exuberance, the developer continues to prioritise locations with strong underlying fundamentals, practical product planning, sound financial management and genuine owner-occupier demand.

For the remainder of the year, Radium Evara remains a major focus as the company progresses its existing development pipeline. At the same time, it is strengthening its presence in the healthcare sector through Radium Hospital @ Ayer Keroh.

Future opportunities will be evaluated selectively, with emphasis on projects that complement its portfolio, respond to genuine market demand and create sustainable value for stakeholders, rather than pursuing expansion for its own sake.

For Radium Evara, this measured approach brings the focus back to the needs of homeowners and the established community around them. By prioritising functional living spaces within Kepong’s mature urban environment, the development gives practical expression to Radium’s vision of creating homes that remain relevant well beyond the day residents move in.
