Cosmopolitan and connected, Mont’ Kiara sets the stage for Pavilion's new lifestyle benchmark development
Mont’ Kiara is serial entrepreneur Elyna Effendy’s chosen address. Cosmopolitan and connected, like Elyna, Mont’ Kiara is a natural choice for the gregarious mother of two. Still a relatively new district, the erstwhile rubber estate has blossomed into one of the city's most sought-after and exclusive residential postcodes.
This well-heeled demographic is drawn by Mont' Kiara's many charms, home to a diverse population of locals and a historically significant population of Japanese, Korean and Singaporean residents. Fast-paced and urban yet serene and calming at the same time, Mont’ Kiara strikes the ideal balance between being a hub for trendy F&B offerings with family-friendly appeal.

Whatever one’s work arrangements are, Mont’ Kiara does not disappoint. When working from home or a nearby cafe, Mont’Kiara offers excellent fast internet access and plenty of cosy cafes. When one has to go beyond Mont’Kiara, this area's environs sit at the nexus of four major highways, enabling easy access to airports and downtown Kuala Lumpur.
Having two growing sons, convenience is crucial, and the network of nearby international schools and colleges ensures that school runs do not eat into her hectic days. Running errands and picking up groceries is a breeze as fine supermarkets and speciality shops are all within easy reach.
