Not a surprise at all, given the excellent location, FH status, 2 minutes MRT (NE Line and Circle line ), Full Condo facilities, 2 minutes to ST Andrew Junior, St Andrew Secondary, ST Andrew JC, Cedar Girl Secondary, Cedar Primary, 2 Km to Maris Stella ???. Not many willing sellers unless buyers are willing to pay premium now > 1,000 psf.
Where to find under $1,000 psf now ??? :D:D
Do you mean by the empty land next to potong pasir mrt, Pheng Geck ave? That one is sold as residential project.
That 'commercial project' which I've heard of is behind MRT, opp of Pheng Geck Ave, near to Woodville28. Any idea abt this plot of land?
It is quite obvious and people are just lazy to check URA Masterplan?
There's a big patch of grass between the MRT and PP town centre. Its designed for commerical development in the URA masterplan 2008.
This site used to house a temporarily showflat and during elections / festivals used for various purpose.
I believe there is much potential for pty in this area to rise further after the Election due to this plot of land :)

Watch out for the bidding for the GLS plot near OL (Upper Serangoon/ Pheng Guat Ave) just next to Potong Pasir MRT. I believe this is a very hot spot for Developers. Tender close end June.
Not surprise if developers will bid above mkt rate ppsf and eventually sell at above 1,100 - 1200 psf.
Potong Pasir is hot hot because it is the area now , Within NE Line and Within Circle line access .. if you talk about distance-based travelling, it is almost at the centre ....:D :D

I've even heard that the whole potong pasir estate may be redeveloped. Not impossible as the estate looks rather old and run down. It certainly has a lot of potential being located pretty near to city.
That is becos it has been largely ignored. The estate has not changed much over the last 20 years.

den 04, I'm not lazy to check the masterplan....I've checked more than 10 times but just can't understand the drawing ,no specification or details of the development.
I've a unit in OL ,of course I'm very keen to check the potong pasir development,when the election date,when will announce the commercial plot....etc. so I can sell my unit at the right time with a good price.
Thanks for the info anyway.
Hi guys,
I am looking at the OL among some other dev and would like to know whether there is a serious lack of amenties in Potong Pasir area? Seems like the nearest supermart is in the petrol kiosk itself? Any coffeeshops nearby as in within 400-500m?

What are you going to do with the cash after you've sold your One Leicester? Definitely not put in the bank to earn 0.25%, hence you must be intending to buy another property.
How would you know that the new property you buy will perform better than One Leicester? But immediately you would have already lost a few percentage points with the buy and sell.

jlrx: everybody will sell smthing along the way mah....i am sure ppty_owner sold some ppty b4....even tat guy who owns 90+ ppty also sell some along the way...
sometimes we nid to unlock the profit and take more risk and leverage up...such as selling a fully paid 2mil ppty and buy 2 or more ppty of 2mil each....high risk high gain:D
of coz, we can explore equity cashout/loan as well:D
got kopi shops, wet market at the hdb estate...
very near OL? Do you own a unit at OL? What is the monthly maintenance like? facilities good? How big is the land area?
Thanks in advance!:D

How's the condition of OL?
Understand that it's built by China Construction. Have not heard of any favourable reviews of projects by CC.
I'm keen in getting a 4 bed room at OL due to its location but am held back by the project being built by CC. Are the 4 bed rooms facing Potong Pasir or PIE? I believe that the units facing PIE will be subjected to the noise 24/7 not to mention the dust and soot.
Woodsville@28 is out as it's facing the main road. Cannot believe that there is a bus stop right in front of the condo when the next bus stop is less than 50 metres at the MRT!

Heard the bus stop in front Woodsville 28 will be gone once the woodsville interchange is up. :) In SG, a lot of condo are facing main road (e.g. citylight, the esta, one amber, etc .... is better than facing express way lah.....

Mmm...People invest in property only care about buy cheap and be able to sell at a profit.Before selling the property of course you need to minus the stamp fee,renovation....etc, if no/ little gain or breakeven then no point selling.
If you are able to sell with a profit then wait for the next down turn or if there's a good deal then u faster grab...
can't teach you much, u have to keep watching the market by reading more news or search the website....

I would say China Construction is quite good,
they(china workers) are efficient and hardworking.Else my friend bought another project by indian workers, so slow and do things anyhow.
4 bed room is facing pool view.
Haa haa, yah china workers better than indian workers....look at the disastrous delhi commonwealth games vs the beijing olympics. :rolleyes:

Anyone know the original contractor contact?
Management office does not know and a lot of contractor want to replace, not service.

Why don't you check with FCL. The main contractor then is South China Construction incl the furnishing. I way I see it it needs some servicing , realigning the door , not need to replace. :)
Seems like this OL has a fair bit of shobby workmanship. My friend's unit tiles pop out.
Nice place with a gardenia vending machine.
Those who are buying into OL - Remember to factor in a $100k premium to hack away the tiles for replacement.
I find the build up very dense with not much space for greenery. W28 and the surrounding projects are no better. Think I'll skip this place.
I heard that the row of houses along Woodsville Close are going for enbloc. Stumbling block is the Tamil Association who does not want to shift. I hope it does not go through as everywhere construction and highrise skinny projects like Parc Aston.
Heard ntuc is coming to potong pasir! News or no news:D

Hi Ginseng,
Don't mind I ask you, you heard this info from who?
Yeo
Have not heard anything from my brother who is staying there on poor workmanship.

I bought my OL at $625 psf just b4 Apr 2006 Potong Pasir Election. Times have passed and things have changed at PP. I am still staying here for good for my children , for all the convenience, near to town, first class view (top floor) of CBD, fireworks etc. It is the only full-fledged FH Condo in city fringe area.
:D :D :D
