For busy young couples and growing families, Bon Kiara offers the flexibility of function, open-plan spaces, and unbeatable location
For Tengku Asaad and Rahayu Permatasari, the kitchen is not just the heart of their home; it’s also at the heart of their business. During the pandemic, the couple started The Daily Broth, a home business offering nutritious slow-cooked bone broth. This bowl of goodness first made for their little boy is now helping nourish kids and adults around the Klang Valley and other parts of Malaysia.
"To make a product that meets our exacting standards and to be able to meet the growing demand for our lovingly made broth, enough space is essential. Our cooking process is very specific and tedious, and requires plenty of preparation, so a spacious environment is a must," states Asaad.
With such exacting requirements, BON Estates' upcoming development in Bon Kiara is ideally suited. The development builds on the previous success of The Estate and expands on the appeal of quality urban living.
Learning from the pandemic, Bon Kiara addresses the persistent demand for spacious high-rise homes in vibrant urban centres. Not to mention providing homebuyers with extra space for multi-purpose usage as buyers continue redefining their homes to fit post-pandemic purposes.
Capacious units, offered in varieties that range between 2,081 sq ft and 6,226 sq ft, are designed with pragmatism and flexibility in mind. An open layout offers to create your own distinct lifestyle statements, while a vast lanai area can be repurposed to either accommodate an expanded entertainment area or simply be a private outdoor garden, exercise area or quiet reading area for the family.

“Living, Well-Crafted” is the philosophy that runs through everything BON Estates builds. This is reflected in how the spaces in Bon Kiara are curated to fulfil modern needs while satisfying our timeless desire for serene surroundings to enjoy quality time with loved ones.
With sustainability being a large part of the BON Estates ethos, Bon Kiara is designed as a GreenRe Gold Certified building. Hence, buyers can expect homes with water efficiency, natural light and ventilation, as well as a meticulous selection of durable materials and lush surroundings. Additionally, residents will be future-ready as every unit will be afforded an EV Isolator for electric vehicles at a designated car-parking bay. These open-plan homes have been envisaged to ensure that all living there enjoys comfort, convenience and practicality.
Asaad agrees with the appeal of such living spaces: "We enjoy a home with ample natural light to create a pleasant environment because we spend so much time in the kitchen. High ceilings, good air circulation, and proper ventilations are also advantageous. Not only can we give the AC a rest but feeling the cool breeze while we work in the kitchen or any part of the space is refreshing."

Location is another crucial determinant of a well-rounded home. Bon Kiara inspires a carefree lifestyle within a comfortable and open Mediterranean-inspired resort setting, with facilities such as a Tree Walk and Central Park. This is also complemented by the plethora of lifestyle experiences hosted within the urban ecosystem of upscale Mont Kiara.
Logistical and accessibility advantages are available here, with an MRT station proposed close to the site. Furthermore, residents will enjoy convenient access to surrounding amenities via a dedicated shuttle service, with stops located at major highlights within the Mont Kiara locale.

"We love that Mont Kiara gives us convenience and accessibility. It has many young couples with small kids living in the area. There are plenty of activities for kids, as well as nice restaurants and cafes in walking distance. It's also easy to access some reputable schools, which is a huge plus for us," notes Asaad.
"There's also access to main roads and highways that connect us to other parts of the Klang Valley. Top facilities and amenities are a must for us; we like to hit the gym occasionally, and we love to take our son swimming."
Crafted inside out, Bon Kiara embraces Mont Kiara’s cosmopolitan appeal while infusing BON Estates' building philosophy of delivering a balanced quality of life.
