Spoiler alert: it got it. Tucked away in one of KL’s most prestigious areas, the property comes with a mansion, but it’s not quite the *picture-perfect* home you might imagine. Overgrown with trees and greenery, it looks more like a wild retreat than a luxury residence. Yet somehow, its location near Pavilion KL, Starhill, and the Mandarin Oriental Hotel is pushing the price to new *heights*—whether it deserves it or not. So, here’s what you need to know about this listing: ## Price: RM4,500 per square foot That’s right. This patch of land is going for RM4,500 per square foot. If you do the math (we did), it adds up to a *choke-worthy* RM69,783,120 for just 0.356 acres (15,057 square feet). Yes, you read that correctly. It's almost RM70 million. For a jungle. ## Reason for the high price: Prime location Apparently, being behind KLCC is enough reason to slap on a price tag this hefty. ![Abandoned Mansion Near KLCC Up For Sale For A Whopping RM69mil](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/459954192-9070337102994328-4646319393403923749-n.jpg)Photo via [X/@jatikhwan](https://x.com/JatIkhwan/status/1835696039694922226) Sure, it's close to Pavilion KL, Starhill, and the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, but does that really justify charging you the equivalent of a *small country’s GDP*? Real estate agents say it's all about that *prime location*, but you better bring a lawnmower if you want to make it livable. ## The condition of the property If you’re expecting a grand estate, you might want to *take a rain check*. ![Abandoned Mansion Near KLCC Up For Sale For A Whopping RM69mil ](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/459864315-9070336806327691-8301905845093692431-n.jpg)Photo via [X/@jatikhwan](https://x.com/JatIkhwan/status/1835696039694922226) The mansion is surrounded by overgrown vegetation, with trees and wild greenery giving the property an untamed vibe. Some have nicknamed it a "mini jungle," suggesting the property needs a *major trim* before it’s livable again. After being shared in the Mont Kiara community, the listing caused a wave of reactions online. Many were stunned by the price, with some pointing out the irony of paying RM69 million for a plot that looks abandoned. Some users humorously compared the property to a jungle, while others questioned if the high price could ever be justified. ## Location over condition Despite the current state of the property, real estate experts say it’s all about *location, location, location*. ![Abandoned Mansion Near KLCC Up For Sale For A Whopping RM69mil ](https://cdn.weirdkaya.com/media/459714275-9070336489661056-3999899445202822095-n.jpg)Photo via [X/@jatikhwan](https://x.com/JatIkhwan/status/1835696039694922226) Being close to the heart of KL’s luxury and business districts makes the property *hot property*, no matter the work needed. For buyers, the convenience of owning land in such a prime spot is worth the *splurge*, even if it means rolling up their sleeves to restore it. *So, there you have it. A RM69 million mini jungle in the middle of Kuala Lumpur that’s got social media in a tizzy. Whether you see it as a real estate gem or a wild pricing scheme, one thing’s for sure: it’s making waves in all the right—and wrong—ways.* **[Read also:](https://weirdkaya.com/private-island-near-langkawi-up-for-sale-for-over-rm9mil/)** https://weirdkaya.com/private-island-near-langkawi-up-for-sale-for-over-rm9mil/ --- [![WeirdKaya | Malaysian](https://weirdkaya.com/wp-content/uploads/banner.png)](facebook.com/weirdkaya)For more stories like this, follow WeirdKaya on [Facebook ](http://facebook.com/weirdkaya)and [Instagram](https://instagram.com/weirdkaya)! ---
