Jalan Ipoh and Jalan Kuching: Condos, Apartments and Area Guide

Jalan Ipoh, once called Batu Road, was the only road from Kuala Lumpur to Ipoh and part of Federal Route 1. In November 2014 DBKL renamed its southern stretch, from the Jalan Segambut junction to Jalan Pahang, as Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah. Jalan Kuching runs to the west of it, leading towards Segambut and Sentul, and is also part of Federal Route 1.

The neighbourhood is a mix of old villages such as Kampung Batu and Batu Muda, army land at Batu Kentonmen, housing estates such as Taman Batu Permai and Taman Rainbow, and condos along both roads. Batu Caves, at the north end, is in Selangor.

The roads run through two parliament seats. Pekan Batu, Batu Muda, Batu Kentonmen, Taman Batu Permai and Taman Rainbow are polling districts of Batu, where the median household earned RM 9,929 a month in 2024. Taman Segambut and Kampung Kasipillay are in Segambut, with a median of RM 15,867, although that seat also covers the much richer Mont Kiara and TTDI. The KL median was RM 10,802.

This is a small sample. In NAPIC sales in the 12 buildings we matched, a condominium or apartment sold for a median of RM 374 psf in 2024 and RM 353 psf in 2025, close to Setapak and under the North KL median of RM 373 psf. A typical unit sold for about RM 380,000 in 2025.
