The OOAK Suites & Residences @ 163 Retail Park is a premier freehold mixed-use integrated development located along Jalan Kiara in the heart of Mont Kiara, Kuala Lumpur. Known for providing an unparalleled lifestyle of convenience, the development seamlessly blends urban residential spaces with retail and commercial vibrance.

Property Facts & Core Overview

The Ooak stands as the residential crown of the Kiara 163 master plan (formerly known as D'Kiara Place). Developed on a prime 6-acre site, the integrated project has a Gross Development Value (GDV) of approximately RM1.20 billion.

• Developer: D’ Kiara Place Sdn Bhd (a subsidiary of the established YNH Property Berhad)

• Tenure: Freehold

• Completion Year: Completed in 2022.

• Building Components: The residential portion is divided into two prominent high-rise structures:

  • The Ooak Serviced Apartments (Block B): 42 floors, 336 units.

  • The Ooak Suites (Block A - Hotel/Service Suites):

    44 floors, 382 units.

• Integration: Connected directly to the wildly popular Sunway 163 Retail Park lifestyle mall.

History & Background

The history of the site dates back to the late 2000s when the land was initially planned for a commercial project named D'Kiara Place. Due to shifting market dynamics and the global financial slowdown, YNH Property Berhad strategically deferred the project.

It was later rebranded and reimagined as Kiara 163, modernizing the concept into a highly dense, vibrant "work-live-play" micro-hub. The commercial office wing (SOVO) and the retail podium were launched first, followed by the highly anticipated residential phase, The Ooak, which officially welcomed occupants in late 2021 / 2022. It stands as one of the last major mixed-development properties occupying a main-road frontage plot on the coveted Jalan Kiara stretch.

Surrounding Amenities

The defining characteristic of The Ooak is its unmatched walkability within the global village of Mont Kiara. Residents rarely need to drive for daily errands.

• Immediate Retail & Dining: 163 Retail Park is directly downstairs, housing a Jaya Grocer, high-end bistros, cafes, and healthcare pharmacies. Across the street is Shoplex, and within a 2-minute walk are Plaza Mont Kiara and 1 Mont Kiara Mall.

• Education Options: Located exceptionally close to premier international schools, including Mont' Kiara International School (MKIS) and Garden International School (GIS).

• Medical Facilities: Global Doctors Centre and Kiara Medical Centre are only moments away.

• Connectivity & Accessibility: The development sits right on the main artery of Jalan Kiara. It grants direct vehicular outlets to the Sprint Highway, Penchala Link, Kerinchi Link, NKVE, and the DUKE Highway.

Key Attractions & Facilities

• The Rooftop Infinity Pool: Located on Level 41 of the Residence block, it offers one of the most stunning, unobstructed panoramic views of the Kuala Lumpur city skyline (including the Petronas Twin Towers) in the area.

• Comprehensive Lifestyle Deck: The property features a fully equipped gymnasium, sunken pool terrace, jacuzzis, hot baths, a rooftop BBQ terrace, squash courts, and children's play areas.

• True "Downstairs" Convenience: The private key-card access connecting the residential lifts straight into the shopping mall eliminates traffic and parking hassles completely.

Target Market: Buyers, Investors & Interested Parties

The unit configurations and strategic location make The Ooak a distinct asset class in Mont Kiara, appealing to specific property demographics:

Types of Buyers (Own-Stay)

• Young Professionals & Millennial Executives: The smaller 696–816 sf spaces appeal heavily to upwardly mobile urbanites who want an upscale address without the maintenance of a massive 3,000 sf condo.

• Modern Couplets & Empty Nesters: Appealing to down-sizers who want security, premium resort facilities, and instant accessibility to grocery stores, salons, and medical clinics right below their feet.

Types of Investors

• Coliving & Airbnb Operators: Because Mont Kiara experiences high transactional travel and business traffic, these compact units yield robust performance on short-stay platforms (like Airbnb) or specialized coliving setups.

• Expatriate Rental Investors: Mont Kiara has long been Kuala Lumpur’s primary expat enclave. The dual-key units (1,016 sf) allow investors to execute a dual-rental strategy (renting to two separate single expats simultaneously) to maximize monthly cash flow and boost rental yields.
