Faber Ria, Taman Desa Old Klang Road Tour | apartment for rent in SPEEDHOMEFaber Ria
Faber Ria stands out in Taman Desa and Kuchai Lama for location and what residents say: a 1985 Faber condo scoring 6.6 overall. What to check before you sign.
Older and less dense than most in Taman Desa and Kuchai Lama; living here is middling, with a quiet setting, though reports mention complaints about the management. About 3 min by car to Vikas International School.

What Taman Desa and Kuchai Lama is like
This area joins two townships off Jalan Kelang Lama. Taman Desa, built from the 1970s, is a quiet suburb of older terrace houses, condominiums and apartments, named among the oldest and most established housing areas on Old Klang Road; its kopitiams, Chinese restaurants and cafes cluster in Taman Danau Desa. Its residents say it lacks green space and has no rail service.
Kuchai Lama is a mature suburb that has turned from sawmills and workshops to gated homes, condominiums and serviced apartments. Its population is mainly middle-income, its Jalan Rukun shops are mostly eateries, and Kuchai MRT station on the Putrajaya Line serves it. In 2019 its older apartments were priced at RM380-450 psf and new condominiums launched from RM700 psf.
Traffic is the shared problem: Jalan Kelang Lama has fallen to Grade F, with junctions in both townships named as hotspots. More density is planned, from a proposed Mah Sing project of about 2,400 homes in Taman Desa to a rezoning near Kuchai Lama, both questioned by residents who fear worse traffic.
