Kensington Residence is an extremely valuable purchase especially for own-stay considering its spaciousness, tasteful design and quality finishes. Each unit comes with 2 master bedrooms along with a balcony at the first floor which overlooks beautiful landscaping. Affordable priced along with ease of accessibility to a myriad of amenities, families would find it ideal for own-stay.However, most would claim that the positioning of Kensington Residence is not so desirable due to its close proximity to the railway and the busy main road of Jalan Megat Harun. Noise pollution might pose a problem to residents. One would have to weigh the pros and cons of convenience against the possibility of noise pollution.
