The developer of Cosmopolitan Homes are very particular about the quality of their development and it can be seen in the minute detail of the houses. The living room and dining room floors will be using 2.8 x 2.8 ft floor tile and the balcony fencing will be using tempered glass to make the homes appearing modern and sophisticated. The houses also have high ceilings, allowing for airy breeze and illusion of space.Part of Ardmore Residence approved plan from the authority is the expansion of the road by 50 meters. Among the complaints by property investors was the narrow road leading to the development, with cars parking on both sides of the road. Another gripe is that the multi-million dollar house are facing low-cost and medium-cost homes nearby.During the time of launching, the units at Ardmore Residence were sold starting from RM1,288,000. However, as of May 2013, it was priced at RM1,688,000. The location of the property will be the deciding factor whether the price can continue to grow. While Jelutong is rapidly blinking on property investors' radar, some areas still could use a little upgrading.
