Hillsta (D23, 99 years leasehold, Far East Organization)

[bargain hunter]

FEO has been selling these 3.6/3.7m SOHOs everywhere regardless of location.

i went up a 3.7m one at Euhabitat. i have to bend down for sure on that "loft" and i will hit my head if i sit up on the bed.

It is not a true SOHO. from my understanding, it is a Soho concept.
Personally, it is just a high ceiling condo unit and does not qualify to be a loft.

Buyers will decide whether it is worthwhile to pay 100-150psf more for the additional ceiling height.

True SOHO will be Soho@central.

FAR East Organization has sold 109 units at its Hillsta project at Choa Chu Kang Road/Phoenix Road which was released last week.

The property giant, which is developing the 99-year leasehold project with Sekisui House and China Construction, provided average per square foot (psf) prices according to various unit types in the 416-unit development.
The project has condominium apartments, Soho- style apartments (with a higher-than-usual floor-to- ceiling height of 3.6 metres) and 20 strata townhouses.

The average price of three-bedder, two-bedder and one-bedder condo units are $918 psf, $984 psf and $1,042 psf respectively. As for the Soho-style apartments, average psf prices are $1,093, $1,106 and $1,198 respectively for three, two and one-bedroom units.
Townhouses cost $907 psf on average.

Absolute prices start from $600,000 for a 570 sq ft, one-bedroom condo unit. All prices are net of incentives and discounts.

Far East said yesterday that about 90 per cent of Hillsta's buyers are Singaporeans, with the majority already living in the Choa Chu Kang-Bukit Panjang district.

In its release yesterday on Hillsta, Far East said the project's site, with its naturally hilly gradient, provides the 'perfect backdrop for Sekisui House to recreate the Japanese satoyama - the tranquil terrain of the mountain foothills'. Satoyama is a Japanese concept describing the harmonious synergy between nature and people who live at the foot of a mountain.

The undulating Hillsta site will be transformed into green terraces inspired by Japan's rice terraces, or tanada, to bring a nature-friendly lifestyle to the residents. Traditional bamboo lattices and natural stones add finishing touches to the garden.

must setup a japanese massage shop nearby to serve bukit panjang uncles.

Surprised that FEO finally sells the townhouse. The sales girls said it would not sell it and just keep it for renting a few months ago.

i think its sold about 3 units according to caveat.maybe more than that.

3.4 million per unit. The buyes must be very rich! Seems that 92% of all units have been sold. FEO still send invitation post cards to invite potential buyers to go there to eat mooncakes to promote sales. Very ambitious! It takes more than 1 year to clear all stocks. But Skywood developers said it would take 9-12 months to sell all units. Can they manage it? I don't think Skywood is better than Hillsta.

yeah.i rather buy pavilion park landed with that kind of price as pavilion park is freehold and landed and just so near from hillsta.this is just strata and 99 leasehold.the leftover units mostly all is townhouses.
