Quick Verdict

The best-subsidised way into Mont Kiara right now. Only duplexes are left, the building is at its final stage before vacant possession, and the developer is stacking a free loft extension and RM80,000 cashback on top of its discounts. Net prices land at RM780k to RM1.1 million for a duplex next to Solaris Mont Kiara. The honest flip side: it’s leasehold, it carries a service-residence title, and you’re choosing from what remains rather than the full range.

Buy it if you want a Mont Kiara address with keys this year and a deal that won’t come back once these units are gone. Skip it if freehold is non-negotiable for you.

The developer package, top to bottom

  1. Free loft extension — the open loft void has been filled in, so the upper floor is bigger at no extra cost
  2. RM80,000 cashback — on top of the extension (buyers used to get one or the other; now they get both)
  3. Developer discounts
  4. Rebates

Net price after all of it: RM780,000 to RM1.1 million.

Why Duplexes, and Why Now

Arte Solaris rises 52 floors on Jalan Duta Kiara, beside Solaris Mont Kiara. Its 170 duplex serviced apartments run from 790 to 2,051 sq ft over two levels, with 2–3 car parks each — proper home layouts rather than hotel-room studios. Those duplexes are now the only units left.

Timing is the second reason. The building is at its final stage, with vacant possession due in 2026. You can see the actual structure instead of an artist’s impression, and you are not waiting four years for keys.

The third reason is the package. Developers make their best offers at the very end of a project, to clear the last units before handover. That is exactly where Arte Solaris is now.

Location

Mont Kiara is one of KL’s most established expat neighbourhoods: international schools, embassies, premium dining and consistent rental demand.

Facilities — The Palace Theme

No other Mont Kiara tower looks like this. The developer went “full palace” on Arte Solaris: a Baroque-inspired Royale Palais room with chandeliers and a winged sky deck on Level 33A, a Venetian fountain bridge, and a pool inspired by Rome’s Trevi Fountain.

You may love it or find it too much. For a landlord it’s a practical advantage: these facilities photograph exceptionally well, and expat tenants scrolling through dozens of listings stop on distinctive visuals.

What We Like

A Mont Kiara duplex under RM1.1 million net. Prices across Mont Kiara generally sit above RM1 million; here that buys you two levels, not a studio.

The package is real money. A filled-in loft adds usable floor space, and RM80,000 back is roughly 7–10% of the net price on these units.

Keys this year. Inspect the building, check the finishing, then commit. Most of the off-plan risk is gone.

Built-in rental story. Expat families, embassy staff and international-school parents keep Mont Kiara rentals moving, and the palace facilities make a listing stand out.

What Concerns Us

Leasehold tenure. Some neighbouring developments are freehold. If you plan to hold for decades, factor this into resale expectations.

Service residence title. Expect commercial utility rates, often 20–30% higher electricity bills than a residential-titled condo. The trade-off is more flexibility for short-term rental.

Choosing from what’s left. With only duplexes remaining, specific layouts and floors may already be gone. Decide on your must-haves before the viewing.

603 units overall. Not a boutique building. Expect activity in the common areas.

Who Should Buy This?

Upgraders who want Mont Kiara now — renting in the area today, ready to own, and want space for a family.

Investors renting to expats — a two-level unit with the palace facilities is a strong listing in Mont Kiara’s rental market.

Deal-driven buyers — if the free loft plus RM80k is what tips you over, act while units still carry it.

The Bottom Line

Arte Solaris is the most heavily incentivised way into Mont Kiara on the market right now: a duplex, keys this year, a free loft extension and RM80,000 back. The leasehold tenure and commercial title are real trade-offs, so weigh them, but at RM780k–RM1.1M net the numbers are hard to match in this neighbourhood.

Our take: 8/10 — the package and timing lift it; leasehold and commercial rates hold it back.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is Arte Solaris now?

The remaining duplexes run from about RM780,000 to RM1.1 million net — that is after the developer's discounts, rebates and the RM80,000 cashback. Exact prices depend on the unit and floor, and the list changes as units sell, so ask for the live list before you plan around a number.

What is the free loft extension?

Some Arte Solaris duplexes were designed with an open loft — part of the upper floor looked down onto the living area below, like an indoor balcony. The developer originally offered buyers a choice: have that void filled in to gain usable floor space, or take RM80,000 cashback instead. With vacant possession close, the developer has now filled the lofts in anyway and kept the RM80,000 cashback, so buyers get both — more floor space and the money back.

When will Arte Solaris be completed?

The building is at its final stage, with vacant possession due this year (2026). Developer timelines can still move by weeks, so ask me for the current position before you commit to a move-in date — but this is keys in months, not years.

Is Arte Solaris freehold or leasehold?

Leasehold. That is a big part of why a Mont Kiara duplex is reachable at RM780k–RM1.1M here, when freehold neighbours trade higher. If you plan to hold for decades or want maximum resale appeal, weigh that honestly.

Can foreigners buy Arte Solaris?

Only units priced at RM1 million or more, which is Kuala Lumpur's foreign-ownership threshold. Most remaining Arte Solaris duplexes are below that after the package, so foreign buyers should ask me which specific units qualify.
