New landed development @ Sunrise Terrace - Preview Sales!

Sited in a private residential enclave at Sunrise Terrace, this development consists of 78 cluster landed homes; each home is 3-storey high with a roof terrace that provides a platform to strengthen multi-generational relationships within the family.

This development features resort-like facilities which will offer residents respite and rejuvenation from the hustle and bustle of the city life. Only a short drive away from heartland towns such as Ang Mo Kio, Yio Chu Kang and Upper Thomson, residents can enjoy convenience from these amenities. A host of dining and entertainment options can also found along the nearby Jalan Kayu and Greenwich V.

Sunrise Terrace’s close proximity to Seletar Aerospace Park has also made it a choice location for many landed property buyers. When fully operational in 2018, the Seletar Aerospace Park will be a modern aviation centre with over 10,000 workers and professionals. This augurs excellent investment opportunities as more local and foreign professionals will be looking to buy and lease properties within the estate.

The Siena SOHO homes offering beautiful modern architecture. Nestled within the prestigious Bukit Timah residential precinct.

Far East SO/HO presents another trend setting development offering creative spatial designs that celebrate flexible spaces, excellent connectivity and strategic location for the avid urbanite. A new SOHO at Farrer Road, will define a new era of SOHO-living offering an integrated lifestyle concept where living, leisure, working and connectivity converge in one address at Farrer Road.

As a SOHO product, the development was designed to allow the creative spirit to grow, imagination to spread its wings, and conventions to welcome a more open way of living. The inspiration behind this unique product arises from the interestingly irregular boxy façade that slides open in constant reconfiguration.

The architecture beckons for an open call to think out of the box, to see the home not just as a space confined to four walls, but as a launch pad to the rich and varied experiences that make up its surroundings.

Nestled within the prestigious Bukit Timah residential precinct, this new SOHO at Farrer Road is within an area of lush greenery, upmarket residential developments, quaint shophouses, great dining options and numerous good local and international schools as well as expatriate clubs.

Bukit Timah is the choice location for parents who have school-going children from primary to tertiary levels. Reputable local schools in the neighborhood include Raffles Girls’ Primary School, Methodist Girls’ School, Nanyang Girls’ High School, and Hwa Chong Junior College.

Just a stone’s throw away, residents can embrace 74 hectares of lush exotic greenery thanks to its close proximity to the Singapore Botanic Gardens. The Gardens offer a great respite from the hustle and bustle of the city and an urban oasis of tranquility.

Nature lovers have much to cheer as the ‘Green Belt of Singapore’ offers nature parks, reserves and reservoirs worth exploring. Residents can walk along the nature trail or enjoy a hike at the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, soak in the scenery or take a leisure walk along the Village Trail that leads to MacRitchie Reservoir.

Foreign clubs in the area include the British Club, the Swiss Club, the Singapore Island Country Club, the Bukit Timah Saddle Club and the Raffles Town Club. Come 2015, Bukit Timah will be served by Downtown MRT line, connecting residents to the Central Business District and Marina Bay area.

More details on this new SOHO at Farrer Road:

• SOHO homes offering beautiful modern architecture
• Nestled within the prestigious District 10 enclave
• Within the Green belt – Bukit Timah Nature Reserves, Parks and Reservoirs
• A stone’s throw from world renowned Botanic Gardens
• Close proximity to many reputed local and international schools

About eCO - The Concept

eCO is a unique residential development located along the raintree-lined heritage road of Bedok South Avenue 3, nestled within an established private residential area. eCO offers five residential lifestyles – SOHO, Suite, Loft, Condominium and Townhouse, all within one gated community.

In harmony with nature – this is the inspiration behind eCO. The development is conceived as a “community in a garden”, where the outdoor environment and garden spaces are carved out as different characters for the enjoyment of residents. Rich tropical landscape, majestic rain trees, lush gardens and leisure spaces will form the backdrop where the community will learn and grow together. Planned as an ideal home in harmony with nature, eCO “green” features includes a rain garden for rain harvesting, eco-stream, vertical greenery and community garden where residents can grow their own vegetables.

eCO would be a development consciously designed to integrate with the landscape of its vicinity, to attract selected nature species of flora and fauna. The aim of eCO’s ecological design is to produce a truly exemplary, innovative and ecologically informed housing development. eCO will be expertly ‘greened’ by Dr Ken Yeang a world renowned Malaysian architect and writer well known for advancing green design and planning. For The ecologist, under Ken Yeang working together with ICN Design International, our landscape consultant mapped the flora and fauna and the birds found in the vicinity and this formed the basis for eCO.

 

Transformation of the Bedok Neighbourhood

By 2015, Bedok Town Centre will be revitalised into a vibrant hub with a better dining experience created at the new hawker centre, multi-storey car park, town plaza and heritage park. Sports enthusiasts can also look forward to the integrated Community and Sports Complex located within the town centre. When completed, the town centre will also have a fully air-conditioned Bedok Bus Interchange that will have a direct link to the Bedok MRT Station.

The Scotts Tower – New launch in Scotts Road!‏ Post ABSD!!!

THE SCOTTS TOWER

Experience city living at its best at The Scotts Tower. http://edm.iproperty.com/sg/FEOTST/index.html

Located in prime district 9 at the intersection of Scotts Road and Cairnhill Road, The Scotts Tower is designed by international award-winning Dutch architect, Ben van Berkel of UNStudio. Read about the architect's concept for TST here

This development comprises 231 SOHO-concept apartments that offer breathtaking views over the height of 31 storeys, with recreational facilities abound at Level 1 and on the sky terraces on Level 2 and Level 25.

Prime Location The Scotts Tower enjoys close proximity to the shopping belt at Orchard Road, residents have easy access to a plethora of shopping malls and promenades at their doorstep, and a huge variety of international dining options. Recreational facilities such as American Club and Tanglin Club are in close proximity.

Easily accessible via the Pan Island Expressway (PIE) and Central Expressway (CTE), connectivity to The Scotts Tower is enhanced with Newton and Orchard MRT Stations nearby.

Premium OfferingsThe SOHO residences offer semi-white plans which allow residents to customise their personal space. Each unit comes with the most premium designer fittings from Fantini Milano, Geesa Nexx, Reginox Ontario and Gaggenau.

About the ArchitectUNStudio has won numerous awards, amongst which is the 2009 red dot award: best of the best, for the Mercedes-Benz Musuem in Germany. http://www.fareast.com.sg/FEOCorp.Web/index.aspx?page=home-prop-info&prop=53

Discounts galore from developers post-ABSD...

Developers are already offering packages on homes to offset the stiff new stamp duty measures! Far East Organization is offering a 5% relief package* to affected buyers at all of its already-launched projects. It will reimburse buyers 3% of the unit price to offset the new stamp duty. Buyers will also get a furniture voucher worth 2% of the flat price.

They will get the voucher only after putting down a 30% deposit if the project has not been completed.

The package applies across the board to Singaporeans, permanent residents (PRs) and foreigners, so foreigners will still be worse off after the new measures.

First-time Singaporean & PRs home buyers generally cheered the move...

Far East's already-launched projects have another discount that differs between properties.

Prices of units at its Seastrand project in Pasir Ris Drive 3 are discounted by up to 14%, making the cheapest unit an estimated $937psf. But with only three- and four-bedroom units left and the smallest three-bedder at 1,109sqft, the minimum purchase now would cost about $1.04 million before stamp duty.

With an additional 10% buyer's stamp duty for foreigners of $104,000 now, Far East's relief package would help a buyer save almost $52,000 - about $30,000 initially and the rest subsequently.

However, a Far East agent said that unofficially the discount rate could go up to 16% of the original unit price. This means buyers can negotiate a 21% discount off the original total price by combining the uniform 5% cut with the discount that applies to the Seastrand.

This would more than offset the extra stamp duty incurred, although it is believed that the discount applies on a case-by-case basis.

Far East has not announced a dateline for its relief package but the agent said it could last until the end of this month.

ABSD: Case of not all foreigners being equal...

Citizens of five countries that have free trade deals with Singapore, including the United States and Switzerland, will be treated as Singaporean for the purposes of the new stamp duty measures. Americans, Swiss and nationals from Liechtenstein, Norway and Iceland will be treated the same as Singapore citizens, the taxman said in a guide on Wednesday.

根据政府刚宣布的第五轮降温措施，外国买家和非个人购买私宅时，必须缴付额外10％买方印花税。买方也仍须支付原有约3％的印花税率。不过，与我国签署自由贸易协定的五个国家的公民，则无须支付额外10％印花税。这五个国家分别是美国、瑞士、列支敦斯登、挪威和冰岛
