What this project has going for it
About this project
Amberwood Resort Residences is a serviced apartment development on Jalan Muafakat in Kampung Muafakat, in the Larkin district of Johor Bahru, registered with the housing ministry as Residensi Ambar Rimba under project code 13531-2. The land is leasehold for 99 years expiring 3 June 2119 — roughly 93 years remaining as at 2026 — on a commercial title, with the city council approval reference MBJB/U/2025/14/BGN/15/KOM.
The development comprises 824 units in two 26-storey towers, 490 in Tower A and 334 in Tower B, across three layout families: Type A/A1 at 560 sqft with 1+1 bedrooms and one bathroom, Type B/B1 at 721 sqft with 2+1 bedrooms and two bathrooms, and Type C at 872 sqft with 3+1 bedrooms and two bathrooms. Twenty-six facilities sit on a single Level 7 deck, including a leisure pool, lap pool, kids' pool, jacuzzi, gymnasium, multipurpose and pickleball courts, a 300-metre jogging track, a multipurpose hall, gourmet kitchen, games room and a sunken campfire BBQ.
Advertising and sale permit 13531-2/01-2029/0017(N)-(S) runs from 6 January 2026 to 5 January 2029 with a filed band of RM390,000 to RM819,000, a 5 per cent Bumiputera discount, 5 per cent certified construction and a stated completion of September 2029. The developer publishes road distances of 9.5 km to the CIQ and 8.5 km to the Bukit Chagar RTS station, and says a shuttle service to the RTS will be provided without publishing terms or a timetable. For a foreign buyer, two facts matter: the permit ceiling of RM819,000 sits below Johor's published RM1,000,000 strata floor, and the title carries a restriction requiring State Authority consent for any sale to a non-citizen.
Price range
The range below is the upper and lower limit the developer filed with the housing ministry and printed on the advertising permit — not a figure quoted verbally by a salesperson.
What any one unit type actually sells for depends on the floor, the facing and the promotion running at the time. The developer does not publish that; ask me and I will send you the price list.
Layouts and sizes
3 layout types in all.
Official filings
These are the particulars the developer filed with the housing ministry and had approved before it could advertise. A brochure can be reprinted; this cannot.
