D18 Tampines Condo Plot by The Waterfront (Waterview)

[devilplate]

860psf - that's NV price leh. what's the selling point? no MRT, for rental to international school parents, i guess ang moh prefer life style and bigger unit?

all depends on ang mor's budget lah....everybody prefer big villas....can afford anot?? u rent out ur big big 3bedder to them at 2.5k la...den those small 1/2bedders landlords will suck thumb


been hearing ppl proudly saying tat their HDB is rented out to ang mor bankers...lol

[devilplate]

Oh actually I was pleasantly surprised that the price is not on the high side. Land in between two lakes, very rare and beautiful view in Singapore. Don't mind buying for own stay.

But for investment purpose, I am thinking with the same price, is it more worthy buying a studio in downtown area rather than getting 2-room unit next door? any opinion?

a 1bedder in CCR can easily cost 1mil....r u comparing apple with banana?

clift studio 1.1mio 495sqft rent 4k = 4.36%

tropica 3br 920k 1238sqft rent 3.6k = 4.69%

Come to think of it, units opposite the quarry may not be that bad if SimLian capitalized on their deign well. I have to SimLian showflat and it seems that they design luxuriously in their bathroom. If they design jucuzzzi bathtub facing the quarry, it may turn out to be a plus. Take your bath relaxing in jaccuzzi facing the sunset.....

apart from traffic noise, will it be dusty for units facing quarry?

sorry ask a noob qn..lol

[McKinnon]

mr clift interested in district 18 meh?

tropica's blk 61-65 is separated from the ave 10 road by the waterview plot, so i dun think it's noisy at all.

no dust coming from the quarry for my tropica unit, and i'm v particular about feeling sand under my feet. haha.

Anyone has look at the layout?
It appears that the entrance is next to The Tropica with a service road running parallel to the fence with Tropica leading to a basement carpark at the back ( where the showflat is now). I see that ther is a drop off point beside Tropica at the centre section. 2 big round pool is situated in the middle of the project.
A tennis court is situated near Tropica too. Of the 4 penthouse, 3 faces the reservoir and the other facing direct to quarry. Not sure if my interpretation is correct as picture is too small. Picture of layout is found in the PropertyGuru website.

LOL, don't you worry lah, those salesmen sure will market 大澡盆 as 聚宝盆.

[okko]

Yes this is the one.

What I don't understand is why they cram the side facing the quarry with so many units, those units will suffer from noise, dust and afternoon sun. They should "cram" more blocks on the other side facing Bedok reservoir instead.

[devilplate]

not cleverly design to max the reservoir view....they shd learn from the vision

[McKinnon]

actually the layout is about the same as tropica's horseshoe.

the yellow unit at the bottom left looks tempting..

[East Lover]

much much clearer picture:

they shd make the fun pool smaller and put in a nice 30-50X10m adult lap pool for serious swimmers

[East Lover]

see the layout clearly, stk09 & 14 only MBR hit by afternoon sun niah, but can enjoy both query view and reservoir view, the rest of room face southeast as same as the blk12, so not that bad - the balcony has no query view.
i guess the showflat is showing the actual layout of stk 09 & 12, based on my observation from my daily jogging

will the developer improve their design finally if they got a lot of feedback?
