View Full Version : Palm Isles@Flora Drive - By Frasers (LH99)
The fencing are up, and last evening the name was painted/pasted - Palm Isles @Flora Drive...
On FrasersCentrepointhomes website it says:
Flora Drive
Unveiling in 1st quarter 2012. A brand new 99-yr leasehold residential development that will redefine trendy and modern urban living within the serene residential enclave of the Flora Drive precinct. Set to the the “jewel” of Flora Drive, it is a 429-unit project set in picturesque waterscapes and lush landscape mimicking a beach resort, a comfortable lifestyle pad with well-defined activity areas that will appeal to a multitude of home seekers. Worth waiting for are the 28 luxurious Garden Homes that offer the charms of “landed-living” within a condominium setting.
Tenure: 99 years
No. of units: Estimated 429
I was wrong! Not Ixoras but Isles This time lol
noted in their website write up - there are 28 luxurious Garden Homes that offer the charms of “landed-living” within a condominium setting. landed within a condo project in this location, directly facing TPE ? interesting to see what is the outcome...

Following current FEO townhouse concept?
99 years? I thought it is FH.
99 years? I thought it is FH.
I think there is no more FH land in the Flora Road/Drive area.
Yes, only 2pcs of 999years hold by tripartite. And they will take their own sweet time to launch. So there is no more FH left in Flora. Gale is the last FH
At least they bother to continue the alphabet...
Gale, hedges now isles..

i think government's land planning here in flora area major fail. why can't they have some integrated commercial-residential developments here like hillier? obviously there will be enough residential mass soon enough. even bedok road area has eastwood centre n a hawker!

Lol from outside look like modern airport. Inside really modernistic and functional. The photo of the guy sitting and looking far away into the landscape made me chuckle from the familiarity of the grilles to the grille balcony/planter of some of the el cheapo mass market projects....
I bet the launch price would be about $950-$1000psf. Given Ferraria Park next door has already exceeded $1000psf.
Any other better guess, what would be the launch price??

Wow. If that is the case, that will be a great buy compare to Hedges Park. Else the remaining units in Hedges Park cannot release liao...:doh:
hard to say..depends on the no. of their small sized units vs hedges'. actually its location is not as good...next to tpe and no public bus stop..

Let's see. Becos it is beside Ferraria Park which has similar constraints. If you based it on Pasir Ris condo average launch price, it should be around 850-900psf.
This entire stretch is in the middle of nowhere with no special attributes, plus very poor access, 800 psf is already a stretch. When the hype is over and dust settles, ppl will sing the "location location" tune again.

It used to be a cheap FH alternative in the east
Now this one is not even FH.
99yrs + ulu location + beside expressway = 800psf?

dont forget theres another 99yr LH project in flora drive to be sold in future too... the GLS plot won by Koh brothers
Extended Flora Drive is in progress and be completed this year. $800+ psf - hedges price level, $900+ psf is pasir Ris condo price level. $900+ to $1000 psf is about current Flora area price level. My take - its will be closer to $1000 psf avg. Koh's land next door should also be launch this year since its Lh99...
99LH PCs are already in over-supply mode since Q4 2011. ECs in 2012 and 2013 will finish them off. Take care.
There is a way to get FH for abt $800 psf in the area, go for Ferraria Park - those facing Palm Isles, since Ferraria is currently abt $1000 psf... but nobody is selling.
Was told showroom construction in progress, day n nite speeding up. Any bro/sis got info, site/floor plan etc.
Got some info that although showroom is progressing the launch is likely to be only end Q1 or early Q2. Looks like this one is waiting for;
- Watertown to sell well at record high $/psf.
- Tampines EC Trilliant's reaction and looking like its going to be abt $800/psf.
- Watching Hedges closely whether they will up price for reminder units
- Then final release Palm Isles prices, at the moment speculation is about $900 to $1000/psf, or even higher.
Lets see...
saw some info on the site layout... cramp lor. Total 429 units and with 28 units landed garden homes. Some info says start from $899/psf, if its for those landed homes $/psf then those 516sqft units will be up to dun tell me $1,500/psf haha...

That's good eh? SHs are such a waste of sqf
Some units got odd shaped corners. But this one 99yrs + ulu location + next to expressway. :beats-me-man:
If only the empty land opposite where Hedges park showflat is can be built into a mini regional shopping mall like rivervale mall in sengkang.
The last piece of land there is 999yrs belong to HL. It will be ideal, given that, since there are 3 plots of LH99 (Heges, PalmIsles and the Koh Brothers) building/going-to-build project etc. for this last piece of land be slice into LH99 (999yrs sold as LH99) and launch with some commercial/shops to facilitate the amenities in the Flora area.
Oops giving them some idea, but nevertheless its possible... haha.
When is this launching?
should be end-March or early April.
aftertat will be Koh Bro's project launching next door i think.

Over at Flora Drive, Frasers Centrepoint is expected to price its Palm Isles project at $850-$880 psf on average. Hedges Park nearby was released in April last year, achieving an $889 psf median price that month. Developer Tripartite last month disposed of eight units at $873 psf median price. Palm Isles' 429 residences will include a low-rise block with 28 'garden homes' each with its own private carpark lots and garden.
$850-$880 psf on average should be quite reasonable. I tot with all the fantastic new sales going on over the last 2 to 3 months, palm isles is going to launch avg $1000 psf.

Yes, im saying its a bad idea for palm to launch concurrently with ripple. Ripple better view, nearer to Downtown East, near beach, near park. Pricing already out. 1 bedders from 415k.
I think for Palm to steal the pie they gottta price super competitively

Frasers' Palm Isles previews at $830 psf average
By KALPANA RASHIWALA
FRASERS Centrepoint had sold 50 units at its Palm Isles condo project in the Upper Changi location by 11pm last night.
http://www.businesstimes.com.sg/mnt/media/image/launched/2012-03-29/BT_IMAGES_KRISLES29.jpg (javascript:openwindow('/local/picturepopup/0,4661,178320-60000,00.html?');)Resort living: Palm Isles will feature a palm-lined sandy wave pool The developer began previewing the project at its showflat at Flora Drive at 6pm, releasing an initial batch of 100 of the 429 residential units in the 99-year leasehold condo.
The average price after discounts is $830 per square foot (psf), below the $870 psf at which Hedges Park Condominium nearby is said to be selling at currently.
The 501-unit Hedges Park, being developed by Tripartite Developers, was released in April last year and as at the end of last month, had 157 unsold units, according to government figures.
Palm Isles' $830 psf average pricing is below the $850-880 psf that Frasers Centrepoint was expected to release the project at.
http://business-times.asia1.com.sg/mnt/static/image/ax/quoteTop.gifPalm Isles will have a mix of five to seven storey blocks in a resort-style ambience.
http://business-times.asia1.com.sg/mnt/static/image/ax/quoteBot.gif Market watchers reckon that the developer would have taken into account competition from MCL's Ripple Bay condo, within walking distance of Pasir Ris Beach, which goes on the market today.
Ripple Bay is tipped to be priced at slightly above $850 psf on average - lower than the Seastrand condo behind it.
As for Palm Isles at Flora Drive, buyers are mostly Singaporeans, some of whom are living in rented premises nearby.
'The two- and three-bedroom units are doing well. We've also sold two garden homes,' said Frasers Centrepoint Homes chief executive officer Cheang Kok Kheong.
The developer has included 28 'garden homes' in a low-rise block; each unit has its own private carpark space and garden.
The developer minted this new concept riding on the site's sloped terrain. Garden homes have either four or five bedrooms.
Palm Isles will have a mix of five to seven storey blocks in a resort-style ambience that will include lush landscaping, two tennis courts, and a 50-metre lap pool.
The rest of the residential units in the condo will comprise one to four bedders.
Absolute prices for one bedders start from $460,000 for a 506-sq-ft unit (or $909 psf).
Two-bedders start from $660,000 for a 786-sq-ft unit (or $839 psf) and three bedders from $760,000 for a 990-sq-ft unit ($767 psf). A 3,014-sq-ft garden home is priced from $2.2 million (or $730 psf).

At Flora Drive in the Upper Changi area, Frasers Centrepoint has so far found buyers for 58 of the 120 units released at the 429-unit Palm Isles condo. Sales began on Wednesday evening. The average price is $830 psf, lower than $870 psf at which the nearby Hedges Park Condominium is going for. The 501-unit project, which went on the market in April last year, still has over 100 units available for sale.
When contacted, a spokesman for Tripartite Developers, the developer of Hedges Park, said: 'We currently have no change in plans with respect to pricing and additional incentives at Hedges Park. But we will continue to monitor market trends there.'

Palm isle vy ex.....2bdr pool facing about 950psf....
Furnishing so so too but layout better den ripplebay....their 2bdr showroom layout pretty good and efficient.....807sqft feels like 900sqft
Sold 100+ so far.
The garden home is new concept.....upper and lower units .....so far abt 5 sold and all of them i tink is on the upper level unit.....about 700psf 2.6mil thereabout.
the model siteplan looks so cramp compared to ripple.....prices also higher....no wonder this one poorer response....
Based on 950psf....i dun tink hedges park tio hedged.....news reported average 830psf....so fake
haven't been to either, but based on site plan, price n location, i will choose ripple bay over palm isle too. i think they came up with garden home as it's the first of its kind in the area, so there's no competition. but as these will need to be sold at a much lower psf, this means the cost will transfer to the condo units, hence the higher prices? plus developer will need to pay for earth works to clear the forest n level down the land quite a bit, which will be costly, there's a limit to how much cheaper they can go.
not doubt the site plan is cramped, but i think shld not just look at 2d site plan, but 3d space. palm isle is only 6-7 stories, whereas ripple is 12-13, which is double the height. for the same distance between blocks, 6-7 stories will feel much more spacious than 12-13. isle i think is already more spacious than euhabitat, which is of similar height. but i don't buy isle's round pool courtyard concept. gonna be as cramped as seastrand's courtyard idea...
It will be good if HL can build a mall at the empty land where hedges park showflat is. It is right in the middle of the A to I condos.

The lower garden home feels like living underground like that. I still prefer traditional landed style of "garden homes" rather than split into upper and lower units.

so far all the cluster house or townhse within condo comes wif basement...park at basement and enter the hse....some may not like it....
For this, upper level feels like a traditional landed home actually :D
And yes, the lower unit CMI.....cud be very dark and poor ventilation....high chance developer will lelong in future....lol

went down palm isle just now in mid afternoon... the turn out is fairly huge...the showroom is bustling...better than i expected...heck it even has valet parking service .... free icecream(thanks to F&N lol) too... asked for a quote on 06-73 (807k)its about 707k nett...those with pool views cost about 10% more...same layout same floor..its too much of a premium for a view imo... they will be providing free shuttle service to expo once TOP....finishings and applicances are quite standard nothing to shout about.. a total of about 6 garden homes are sold liao...each garden home comes with an option of jacuzzi...a bit disappointed with palm isle's 3bedroom selection..it basically onli has 990sqf 3bedroom "compact" nia.. and the pricing is not cheap too...
I went to ripple bay showflat too...overall ripple bay is selling slightly cheaper than palm isle..ripple bay has more types of units available.. (1bd,2bd,3bdr,PH etc)..location aside..i think palm isle has better 2bedroom layout than ripple bay..but pricing wise ripple bay is probably slightly more attractive than palm isle....

fully agree. with hillier and the rest as examples, as uninspiring and conservative as hong loeng's marketing strategy is, even they should be able to see the obvious benefits. have a mall integrated with residential, n u can charge so much higher for your units. n there will be willing tenants given such a large pool of residents in the flora area.
in fact developers can apply to ura to change land use, at least from residential to residential-cum-commercial, can they not?
went to show flat to have a look. agent said about 250 units released, and almost 200 units sold. so not bad sales at all. the best deals seem to be the 3 bedroom compact units. for the size of 990 sq ft (92 sq m) the cheapest 2nd floor, pool facing, north-south orientation unit was sold for 750k only (#02-07). however that's only for vvip preview price, and it's like 10m away from the substation (and bin centre?) if you don't mind. it's sold anyway. currently the cheapest 990 sq ft unit is unit 32 (dunno which floor) at around 800k only.
strangely, for the Suites blocks (towers i, j and k), the 2 bedders are more steeply priced. for instance, unit 63 (807sq ft) will cost you upwards of 750k. strangely also, their flooring is porcelain tiles :doh: as opposed to marble for the Condo blocks. Go Figure.
note: stamp duty is absorbed.
distance between the Suites blocks is 21-22m, whereas the Condo blocks its 40m. but note that Condo blocks are arranged in courtyard formation, so will feel much more hemmed in.
agent told me it's a 15min walk to the mrt. i almost giggled. it's 1.5km to walk to tampines east mrt. unless you like to do competitive fast walk and trains for it by braving traffic and traffic lights, maybe it's not such a good idea. liddat even hedges park 100m away can also walk to mrt liao.
that said, flora area is a pleasant enclave of low-rise condos that has its charms lar. drivers will appreciate the fact that tpe and pie are literally a stone's throw away, and road widening and bypass constructions leading to them will be completed by Sept this year to ease morning/evening congestion. but non-drivers will lament walking out to main road for public buses and taxis.
popular question: v.s. ripple bay? prices comparable (depending on specific units and size), finishing slightly better, immediate location ripple bay obviously better. if u drive, it's only like 5min from flora area to pasir ris park. so whether walk 5 min to the park (ripple bay) or drive 5 min to the park, maybe drivers don't really care. that's why sales is quite good? i dunno.
showrooms for both condos equally crowded today.
hope this helps.

But mine is a 2 bedder suite. Bought it for investment rather than own stay. Have been staying since young in the west. So, not likely to shift to east.

Don't worry shuttle service will be provided at regular interval from condo to expo station. And if you walk a bit to flora road, there is a shuttle bus to tampines met station. But this you will have to pay

Actually the shuttle comes to Flora Drive up to Ferraria too and I am sure when Hedges/PI are up, the shuttle will go another stop.
There are also some talk about another bus service when Flora Drive is connected to Changi Road. Dont worry too much about transport, at most walk a bit and I do want to point this out. Walking along Flora Road/Drive is quite safe compared to some other private estates because you have guardhouses at intervals and the roads are relatively well lit.

Was there this morning and was looking at the garden homes. The lower unit will really have lighting problem. They don't seem to tell u more of any intended light well or any source of light!
besides, the rooms will be really small. it is very difficult for them to squeeze out much for the rooms (inclusive of 3toilets and balcony) with almost less then 900sqft for level 2 where all the rooms are. This is just my guess and personal view...
Lastly, I think this area is very competitive for rental or even when u want to sell. The only selling pt is maybe they are nearer to airport:rolleyes: ??

Based on this morning news from URA on its stands on "landed properties" in a condo project, I believe garden home is going to be a sell out soon. The reason being URA is not going to approve any more such housing types.

I think the news was out since early apr if I remember correctly. Out of 28, they mention 2 reserved and 7 sold. Which means, they still hv 19. The price is not cheap if u compared to those purely cluster housing development. So if you buy for own stay, go for those cluster housing which will be much cheaper but of course, that one foreigner cannot easily buy. Anyway with all those CMs, no diff now as they are not the major ones buying...:p

Studying the map closely; the new oil refinery is very very far away from Singapore island and facing more towards Changi than Pasir Ris.

In delaying completion there are other cost such as maintaining the construction site and lowering productivity, also delay in cash-flow through progressive payment, inflation (material and labour cost) etc.....

Hm, cannot compare JLB to just PI. JLB must compare to all the 99LH on Flora. Though that said, I've no idea what the figures are for Flora's highest psf achieved for the 99LH developments.
Personally, I decided against any JLB development because Flora/Mariam seems more of a private enclave as compared to JLB. Won't discount JLB's amenities and MRT though, but I guess that might be the reason for the difference in the highest prices.
Anyone has any idea how construction is progressing?
I'm cautiously optimistic about the Loyang MRT, but then again, I don't think it'll be that close to the Flora area.

I've started payment since last month, the suites are further in so probably foundation got completed first. The rest will come. Pretty hard to get progress updates by unless you have friends staying at Ferraria park who could take some snapshots.
The website is useless :doh: I guess they update twice a year.

Wah, thanks! I actually gave up checking that website. They finally updated it. I agree, looks good. Would be nice to start seeing the stacks rising, though I doubt that's gonna happen any time soon.
Thanks for the update!
Anyone has any idea on the latest sales figures?
[quote=lbb]Hello there! Always good to have more neighbours around. Haha, I think andy's is a compact 3br, ground floor patio.
Thanks lbb. Yup. I am in block G..
I received the completion of foundation and starting of the 10% payment. Still have not received a reply from developer on the kitchen window and air-con ledge.. Rila, did you get a notice from developer regarding that?

Hi Andy_1703, No I have not received the notice for 10% payment yet. Think my block will be later since I am at Block E which is where the showflat is located now. I did not receive any letter from the developer on the kitchen window and air-con ledge

Ok. strange, not sure why i seem to be the only one who received that...:simmering:
I contacted FCL to ask if they could make changes to my tiles (Homogeneous to Marble). I was willing to pay the difference.
They didn't allow it. Damn, wondering if it would have been possible had I made the query on the day I bought the house.

Hi lbb, do you have the contact for the FCL staff that is in charge of the Palm Isles project or did you just use their general email address? Thanks

I might be wrong, but you could maybe have a higher chance if you make the request via your lawyer - developer want these in legal form I think. I was thinking of not having the attached dining table, but didn't think it was worth paying a lawyer for it :D

Here's the part which I've yet to figure out. I emailed the general address about a month back. On top of that, I called FCL sales number (took from their website) recently too. So I'm not too sure which one did the trick, the email or the sales number... maybe both, being pushy does help some times...
Anyway, they replied through their lawyers. Sent a letter to my lawyer saying that they could not accede to my request. They did not explain further, and that was kinda disappointing. It would have been clearer if they had explained the rationale. Wondering if I should get my lawyer to write back and ask for the reasons.
alienz, I don't think the lawyer would charge you extra to do it, think everything is already in the agreed fee.

Is there an attached dining table provided by the developer?

It should be provided for the 2 bedroom B1 layout

Hi. I remembered that i checked with the agent when viewing the showflat. Too bad mine is a 3 bedroom too.

Also remembered that there was a sticker on the dining table that says "standard provision" in the showflat

Yup! 2Br comes with an attached dining table, don't think it applies to the 3Br though. It's hardy and handy, was pleasantly surprised to have it. Does provide some minor constraints in terms of deco, but looking at the layout, i doubt i can put a dining table anywhere else.
Does anybody know if the units come with card entry, or the standard key entry?

haha. surely will need to get an ID to do up the place to ensure space is maximised. Good question on the key entry but i doubt will be so nice to give us card entry. :D
Stumbled upon the website below. Provides some useful information on Palm Isles. Look at the project details section :)

Yup the attached dining table only applies to the 2br - I wouldn't mind not having it :D
You mean the door to our units? Not mentioned anywhere in the brochure so should be key entry, only card entry for side gate, 1st / basement lift lobby, some common areas etc. We can do a group buy for those Yale electronic locks for our units when the time comes.

Sure..Let me know! But seems like we do not have alot of active neighbors in this forum to get the number for group buys...

haha you are right. the only ones active on this thread is like a handful . anyway we are at least 1.5 yrs away earliest from getting our keys, i'm sure by that time there will be contractors/sellers posting notices around our compound for such stuffs, if not we can source our own.

Yeah, all the active owners are on this current forum page. Though I'd expect that number to increase as we get closer to TOP. 1.5 years... Hopefully can move in before CNY 2015!

Maybe the foundation not entirely completed yet? Actually I have not received the first 10% notice for payment yet.

This is good news! Their sales figure would be higher if not for their garden homes.

Hi all,
Took some time to get registered. Been following this forum for almost a year though.
I booked Blk 38 ground floor.
I stay near Palm Isles and I drive there to take pics of the construction regularly to chart its development.
I will post them here when I take a pic. From this pic, the suites blocks are starting to sprout up.
Cheers.

Err... I don't think anyone here is staying in the same unit as you unless it's your family members/partner :D Do you mean Tower C? Which is where unit 10 is located, since I reckon that's your unit number.

Started paying already. I think the Suites got it first because of building sequence. My friend received her notification as early as Feb.
