The Shang Hackable Walls & Dual-Key Income:
How to Generate Passive Rent from One Unit

10-ft ceilings, non-structural removable walls, and a flexible layout that adapts to how you actually live — or earns while you don’t.

The Shang Residence is built around a concept that most condos in KL don’t attempt: genuine spatial flexibility. Rather than locking buyers into a fixed floor plan, The Shang’s Type B and C units include non-structural walls that can be removed or reconfigured — giving owners the freedom to customise their space post-handover, or create a dual-income setup that most freehold condos simply can’t offer.

What “Hackable Walls” Actually Means

In Type B and C units, specific internal walls are non-structural and designed for removal or relocation. This enables buyers to:

Open-concept living

Remove the wall between bedroom 3 and living area to create a larger open-plan space — ideal for WFH professionals.

Dual-unit configuration

Type C: partition into two independent suites with separate entrances — rent both, generating dual rental income.

Multi-gen living

Parents and adult children sharing a unit with genuinely private, separate zones — no shared corridors needed.

Live + rent model

Occupy the main suite and rent the second — partially offsetting your monthly mortgage from day one.
