On Stevens Road, before The Pinetree Club.

Also opposite the new and very very expensive Orange Grove Residences plot.

In June 2003, a 30,153 sq. feet land parcel at 40 Stevens Road, next to an adjoining plot owned by CDL was contracted at an attractive price of $17.4 million. The new parcel of land has been amalgamated with the adjoining 5 Balmoral Park for a large residential development, which is The Solitaire.

Any idea what when wrong with this development even though the location is pretty good?

Are you sure they are losing money?
Why don't you compare their selling price with their buying price?

Based on my data, these figures are higher than the average selling price. The last peak is October 2007 - not April 2007.

Bought at 2,xxx psf?
I saw some units (some on higher floors) bought at $1,8xx psf.
Why such a big gap?

Yes lost 1m. I've no idea but I only know these are near Stevens Road.

Is it a good time to buy then for the CCR since it is about 20% down from the peak?

Solitaire is at the junction of Stevens and Robin Road. Great area, but you should get the units that face Robin rather than Stevens. The noise level is VERY different. The traffiic at Stevens Road, unlike Robin Road, NEVER takes a break. \

Now that it is completed, you should insist on viewing the actual unit. Personally, I will never buy based on floor plans or brochures alone. Things like the direction of the sun, the noise level, the actual feel of the unit and layout, can only be experienced with the real thing.

As for the area, the location cannot be beat. I think a price of about $1700-1900 would be quite a fair price for the Robin/Stevens Road area. Balmoral is about $100-200 psf more, but not really worth the difference in my opinion. Of course, to each his own.;)
