Sri Hartamas Shops for Rent & Sale

Sri Hartamas sits between Mont Kiara, Damansara Heights and Segambut in Kuala Lumpur. The main commercial core is Desa Sri Hartamas, a grid of three and four storey shoplots packed with Korean barbecue, Japanese restaurants, cafés, bars, bakeries, clinics and convenience stores. It has long been a dining and nightlife hotspot for Mont Kiara residents, expatriates and visitors from across KL, so shops trade from breakfast to well past midnight.

Most shops sit in the Desa Sri Hartamas grid, on numbered streets such as Jalan 23/70A, Jalan 24/70A, Jalan 27/70A and Jalan 28/70A, which hold the Korean barbecue, Japanese, café and bar rows. Units facing the busiest dining rows and the corners of the grid trade best at night, while inner rows rent for less but still share the evening spillover.

Ground-floor shops in Sri Hartamas typically rent for RM 12,000 to RM 18,000 a month, and whole shoplots typically sell for RM 3.3 million to RM 8 million.

Typical range = middle half of shop adverts from the last 6 months (bait prices and duplicates removed), based on 30 rental and 36 sale adverts. These are market ranges: prime units are usually offered privately first to people who contact MCE.

Tenure: all 38 recent sale adverts that state tenure are freehold.

Rents per sq ft are tight, which reflects fairly standard unit sizes. The sale range is wide because it mixes whole three and four storey shoplots with smaller ground-floor units, so compare like for like. Corner units and spots on the busiest dining rows sit at the top of the range.

• Korean and Japanese F&B: Sri Hartamas is a known destination for Korean barbecue, izakaya and ramen.
• Mala, hotpot and casual dining: dinner and supper crowds sustain group dining concepts.
• Specialty café and bakery: residents and remote workers support daytime café trade.
• Bubble tea and dessert: late evenings bring a steady stream of dessert seekers.
• 24h convenience store and pharmacy: late-night trade makes 24 hour formats especially effective.
• Clinic, dental and aesthetic clinic: easy access for Mont Kiara and Hartamas residents.
• Pet shop, grooming and self-service laundromat: practical services for the high-rise population.

• Day versus night: some rows peak at night; make sure the trading pattern matches your business hours.
• Parking: parking is tight at dinner and on weekends; check customer access at your peak hours.
• Noise and neighbours: for clinics or quieter retail, check proximity to bars and late-night outlets.
• Licensing: Sri Hartamas falls under DBKL; confirm that your use, signage and any outdoor seating are permitted.
• Building condition: many shoplots are older, so check plumbing, electrical capacity and roof condition before fit-out.
• Investment: whole shoplots here enjoy strong tenant demand. Owning the whole shoplot means the upper floors add a second rental income, while banks, convenience chains, pharmacies, clinics and F&B chains make reliable ground-floor covenant tenants.

Sri Hartamas is reached via Jalan Duta, Jalan Sri Hartamas and the Sprint Highway, with Mont Kiara and Damansara Heights a short drive away. There is no rail station within the shoplot grid, so most customers drive or use e-hailing. Nearby hubs include Solaris Mont Kiara, Plaza Mont Kiara and Solaris Dutamas (Publika).
