Anyone visited the showroom and saw this one, any details ?
Yes! Was there with some friends last weekend. We got a unit. Attractive $psf. Compared to surrounding developments...certainly good value.Quote:

I was at both projects. Both have lots of planter boxes... just like all new developments! However, between the two maybe Ambrosia has a slightly better advantage in terms of location but all things considered, I still find Blu Coral to be of better value.Quote:

those who got it, can share the price / area?
interested in this project, first time getting a place and duno what to look out for... can shed some light / info on this project plssssss.....
thanks!!!!!
Agree. Though I didn't have the intention to buy anything right now, I almost changed my mind when I visited Blu Coral. Still thinking about it right now. May take the plunge. Can't decide :(Quote:

Blu Coral is still nearer to Kembangan MRT as compared to Ambrosia so it is still better value to compare... plus did anyone notice Blu Coral is marketed as condominium but Amborsia is silent on this... it is probably classified as apartments? Can anyone shed light on this?
Planter boxes can desk up what.... so don't really make any difference right?
i like the more urban look of the blu coral's facade... and both are freehold... all things being equal... i still prefer blu-coral
Anybody else bought Blu Coral? It wil be there to know what you thing of this development.
too many planter boxes = wasted space = short changed in terms of paying more for the space but actually getting less liveable space.
add up all the space of planter boxes and you will realize how much U lose and
how much is extra profits for them.
if its a balcony that is also Ok because you can put in furniture etc but for planter boxes, there is a requirement by the MCST that you cannot cover it
up and other restrictions etc etc due to weight loading is less.
now if u ask the sales person at the showroom they wont tell you all these
because i asked this question and could not get a professional reply......
dont believe - go n ask the owners of new condos eg City Lights which also
has planter boxes.
Yes! You're right. Blu Coral is classified as a "condominium" unlike others in the same area. You don't get many condos in this area.Quote:

To me, facilities are quite important apart from the location and price. Blu coral does not have a tennis court and even though the land size qualifies to be a condo status, it does not fully justify itself as a condominium in terms of its facilities.
Be it for investment or self stay, I am sure we all want to enjoy good facilities for the 'extra' amount we paid for compared to HDB flats. I also observed that by having a good sizeable pool area is very impt for rental. Alot of expats and their families like to gather around the pool area for functions etc or having suntanning(for angmors)
Many boutique apts claimed to have a pool, but it is pointless for having a pool of less den 20m as u cannot possibly swim(rather call it a dipping pool will be more appropriate) and u have to pay extra maintenance fee for it.
Personally, I will only go for projects that have more than 30 units as it should be quite safe for not having to pay huge maintenance fees and sinking fund for future refurbishments.
So for the price currently for Blu Coral, can buy?Quote:

problem is as mentioned in the above posts, for small developments, all u need is a few people to completely fill the pool ... so in essence with your argument, the public swimming pool is much better ...Quote:

I believe different stroke for different folk...
For eg. when u gets richer, u will start to think differently...
Some very rich ppl may regard exclusivity to bungalows with pte pool etc that comes along with a prestigious address and estate.
Just go according to ur budget and needs. Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder...Do not expect everyone else to fancy your wife too? Just a joke..hehe~
