Isn't Foresque the same? .......
lol what would be a good purchase then? being so close to the expressway the noise will be inevitable...think most buyers would have known already...i think its more of living close to nature rather than with nature...
Friend, a buddy of mine bought TH and was super excited and happy. Until he moved in. Now heart broken and sad coz claiming the traffic noise is much louder than what the developer and salesman said. I been there and almost fainted....geezz...
Point here is buyers may not be aware of how loud and horrendous the traffic pollution is being so close to expressway.
Trying to sell now, break even only. So far, 5 buyers rejected when they visited the unit and hear the traffic noise for themselves...

I think it's disingenuous to claim that the developer and sales people misrepresented on the expressway noise issue...buyer should have known
Anyway, problem can be solved by closing the windows

Anyway, I noted that xox first signed up in May 2014 and his first post (and all posts) are in this ES thread.
From what he mentioned about his friend being misrepresented by the developer and salesman on TH - shouldn't it be logical that he go to TH thread to rant?

I understand ley, you guys are most likely property agents. Only want to say and hear the good things, sell sell sell mahhh.

If a buyer buys a unit at ES for the spectacular unblocked view of the nature reserve knowing that it's somewhat near the expressway. ..then shouldn't later act innocent and point fingers at other people mah

the traffic noise from expressway is bad...just like any condo/hdb near expressway way...not sure what your friend had expected...easy to blame the developer or salesman...but its your friend who didnt do homework to understand what he is buying
is your friend really trying to sell at break even? ...i have considered buying TH and have looked at some units...all of them are asking high...maybe the buyers are turned off by the asking price than the noise...

Traffic noise is about 70 decibels day time, which not as bad as you said, not as bad as Hundred Trees right next to AYE without any buffer.
Noise now is more from Eco's construction actually.....i find your post fishy as if your friend bought at the launch, he can easily make up to 20% capital gain easily, average price then around 800psf....please show proof that any recent TH transaction is near this....in fact none is below 1000psf......anywhere on the island for the matter for newly TOP development, I doubt he would have bought from the secondary market as nobody who did that would sell and get hit by SSD...so my conclusion is your friend is a ficticious character you made up....hahahhaha....perhaps you are trying to talk down the price to buy a unit there.....whatever it is your story has too many holes in it.

did you go to any high floor unit to get a view of the nature? How is it? Worth it?
didnt get to see high floor units...only mid-floor ones...view is nice to me...greens...all trees vew...units nearer to the BKE...traffic noise is obvious...will need to close window for it to be quiet...worth it or not is subjective...noise bothers me a lot...so i wouldnt buy the ones nearer to BKE...which is why i didnt even consider tower c for ES...went for tower a which is further from the expressway...for ES can always go to the 14 floor to the nature view

Hey friend, having supper with my "fictional buddy" tomorrow. Care to join? LOL
The thing is one can sell at any price. The real question is, do people want to buy? With flood of new condo coming in and developers offering discount, what would u buy?
I think buyers for eco, th, foresque mostly looking for tranquility and and w not appreciate "60db".... In quote coz numbers hard to believe for stacks close to expressway...

Yes, I will like to meet up. Willing to match his buying price. If 5 buyers have already rejected, your buddy has couple of more prospective buyers willing to buy at break-even.
Why not??

I dont think its break-even price..like i mentioned i was considering buying there and all sellers wanted high price...nobody is selling at break-even....if yes would have been snapped up...i suspect xox's friend probably lied to him...or maybe this friend dont even exist...

XOX - You have 3 prospective buyers now - myself, Thermofisher and Nydeidith - all willing to match what your friend wants - breakeven price.
...hahaha I will grab at 800 psf breakeven price.........XOX leave your contact here leh.....talk big big, transaction records can be checked at URA website, so far in recent quite months $1000 psf has been the threshold ....except One unit sold at 900 psf, possibly with PES indicated (0-05 floor)
.....anyway sunrise....think what you wish......owner or not, up to you to find out.
Whatever it is, many of us cannot escape traffic noise.....why only TH, ES and ECO being discuss on this issue....the whole stretch of ECP also got many condos that cost even more ....likewise AYE......do you see any ghost town there....got lobang for bargains? HAHAHA.....I believe XOX is here to TCSS like myself....why get worked up.......just see how far one can stretch ones' credibility....should get the master here....the one and only YOWETAN......I am sure he can give more creative input.....

Urs facing TH right? Let me check with my friend this weekend when I go cycling... But generally I think it should be within 70db, as the highway is a good 100m away from foresque, which has the widest buffer from the highway among the 3 condos there. Should not be as bad as Hundred Trees, which is barely 20 m away.
xox where are you, PM your contact leh, I wanna meet with your friend, to get his unit off his hands....

Some basic information for the interested ones:
I am sitting in quite room.. no sounds - DB level is 57-58 (Sound Meter), 46-47 (Noise Meter).
Noise levels at normal conversation are normally about 65
City traffic inside car - 80-85; Subway Train-95
Will be good if someone can get noise levels at different places in/around these 3 condos. One can use app 'Sound Meter' or 'Noise Meter'. Not sure how reliable they are. They are giving different readings in my quite room as mentioned above.
Between 3 condos, FR is farthest, Eco is nearest to highway. Then it depends upon your block and floor.
Having lived near ECP and AYE, I will not completely ignore noise issue but also not get too carried away. Depending upon your situation, with open windows you may hear a constant humming sound. But with closed windows, it is absolute silence.
Take you call.

Thank you for the photos, Tree House.
Seems that they are behind construction schedule. It was originally stated in the SP Setia website that Tower A & B will be built up to 4th level by end June, but when I passed by last week, it seems that they are only at their 2nd level, going up to 3rd level. According to their updated website, Tower A & B will be up to 9th level by end September...judging by the way it progresses, can meh??:rolleyes:

Impressive picture, TREEHSE. So u brought eco? or Treehouse?
Hi All!
I'm new to this thread and am surprise to find that there's even a forum for the condos in Singapore!
So glad that a community is already forming for the future neighbours-to-be.
My hubby n I will be living on 13/A.
And thank you very much TreeHse for the wonderful pictures.
I have been to the site to view but guess the ground lvl view n a helicopter view makes hell lots of difference. :p
Impressive picture, TREEHSE. So u brought eco? or Treehouse?
Yes, darkseed73. My family moved into Tree House since Dec last year. We were enjoying the view from our 24th floor loft unit until ES started to build the tower closest to BKE and will soon block our reservoir view completely! With high ceiling units, your 18th floor is equal to our 24th floor! http://www.condosingapore.com/forums/images/icons/icon8.png
Anyway, will have to accept the fate of looking into each other's houses instead of the beautiful nature reserves view. Something good does come out of it though. The tower has blocked off excessive noise from BKE and we will soon have a pool and the 14th floor sky garden view too! http://www.condosingapore.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.png
May the construction noise and dust be over soon...TOP 2016 should be possible!

i passed by the other day too...actually for tower a+b...from what i understand the two levels you saw are actually the carparks...so technically level 1 havent even built finish it...but i think not surprising that it is slower since the basement and ground area probably need to setup up properly...once they are done moving up is actually very fast...dun forget also they need to align the two towers to build the bridge to link them...
anyways i hope they can finish building faster...and dont really until dec 16 then TOP...now renting so very sian...wanna move to my own home soon!
hmm what kind of specifications?
Hi, specifications like how many lighting point, power point, what kitchen appliances are given, what type of window..etc.
Hi, specifications like how many lighting point, power point, what kitchen appliances are given, what type of window..etc.
all these info can be found in s&p what...surely you have a copy?
lighting point, power point all these depend on unit type/size..
appliances all included...washer/dryer, oven, stove, etc...what u see in showroom is what you get lor (at least its what i was told)...
finishing got three themes can choose...material offered quite good...
this developer i think not bad...very on...keep sending me letters...birthday also send me card...hand-written message some more...lol

Thanks, I refer back to my s&p however the brands use for kitchen n sanitary stuff did not stated, which some of the other project did stated for their owners, hopefully it's going to be what I see in the showroom. Also the window glazing, I hope it's exactly the same as the brochure as it's clear glass becos in the s&p, it stated that it could be tinted or clear or frosted. Few weeks ago when I pass by the project and I saw the tower C was installing some brown color window frame.
Anyone knows what color of glass are we getting?

i think brands for the appliances not so impt to mention in s&p...i remember in the showroom it was bosch...but i guess it doesnt matter even if they change to other brands as long as comparable or better...normally think wont be so cheapskate to downgrade to lousier brand...
window glazing in s&p indeed say can be clear, frosted or tinted...so guess they can use anything they like...in s&p there is a part call glazing control guidelines...which i got no idea how to read..lol

i passed by the other day too...actually for tower a+b...from what i understand the two levels you saw are actually the carparks...so technically level 1 havent even built finish it...but i think not surprising that it is slower since the basement and ground area probably need to setup up properly...once they are done moving up is actually very fast...dun forget also they need to align the two towers to build the bridge to link them...
anyways i hope they can finish building faster...and dont really until dec 16 then TOP...now renting so very sian...wanna move to my own home soon!
if those 2 levels that i see are carpark..then my unit at tower A level 22 would be very very high with a superb view of the nature..i paid so much more for this view..

If those 2 levels are really car park, then they are really way behind their planned schedule as indicated on their website :( I am hoping they can be like Tree House which I understand that the TOP was like 1 year ahead of the planned TOP date since the builders are the same (Tiong Seng). In the same boat like u, renting really very sian...

Thank u...nice view..is it very noise? My unit is very near to pie and my bed room view will be ang mo kio as for the Malaysia view will be completely block by tree house..
Hello Nighttrain, I supposed you are moving in to Forresque Residence soon then? If your block is the one nearest to BKE, I'm sorry to disappoint you. Yes, it will be fairly noisy during peak hours. But the good news is that you will get used to it after a while. The view should be very nice and fairly windy if you are on higher ground.
Here are some views of Ang Mo Kio side overseeing the Upper Pierce Reservoir. Enjoy!

How about night time bro? It is still very noisy? My bedroom balcony faces the BKE directly, and the tower C in ES is the closest to BKE among the 3 condos. I hoped I can sleep at night....

My sales agent told me that the rooftop of the showroom is actually the ground level of the development. So it is fairly high compared to petir road.

went to scout around the "Park" where the butterfly gate is lol SO MANY ANTS.
The park is like totally none functional.
Hopefully, N.Park will improve it once ES is completed.
I also worried abt future security as it's seems like quite easy to access the condo with this "backgate".
Hmmm...anyways.......

Coz 4 bedders only available in tower C....

I seriously doubt if alot people will be using the park. Anyway I recce the park before as well, i noticed there is distance marker painted on the tracks. Good for pple training for 2.4.
As long as the backgate has access control, it should be the same as any other condo right?
However, I do hope ES will build a water point near the backgate. This will be good for washing down bicycle for trail biking. :)
Coz 4 bedders only available in tower C....
What makes u choose ES? As the price is not cheap
passed by the site today...
tower c at 16th floor (already same height as tree house)
tower a + b i think only at 2th floor lol
indeed they are behind the schedule posted on their website....

Hi all, does anyone realized that the honeycombs of Eco is not as "honeycombs" as on the pictures/brochures?
The drawings makes the honeycombs look so obvious but the actual building doesn't look obvious to me.
Is it just me??

Yup, same opinion here. I think that's because when we look at the brochures, we saw the 'whole' picture - complete with 3 buildings and full colour etc. Whereas right now we can only see a barely half completed building (for Tower C), so maybe its due to this, or the angle which we look at (from ground up)? Perhaps our Tree House neighbours (especially those who stay at the higher floors) with a better view of Tower C may think that the honeycombs are quite obvious to them?

Confirm he is. He should be a property agent. Checked on his thread history. He started the thread for Foresque Residences. Then he keep giving good reviews on this development. When one questioned him if he is the agent for this condo, he gave a general answer & "disappear" from the forum.

Thank you for the photo updates, Ecosky. Seems like they have made some progress with Towers A & B, but still seems far behind schedule. Will they be able to build up to 9th storey by end September??
Haha I doubt they can build up to 9th storey by end of the month
I think no way can build up to level 9.
They are at level 3 now, think should be able to finish up to level 5 by end of month.
Did you guys notice that the eco sanctuary website where they post info about site progress is down?

Hello neighbors! Everything seemed quiet in here. Heard that the Developer will be tearing down the showflat soon to make way for construction. I hope you guys purchase this place for own stay and not for investment. If it’s investment, then is a pretty poor choice. Seriously ulu place. TreeHouse, where I am staying, are having units stucked in limbo as no buyers are keen. Foresque probably same same (TOP coming soon). Rental for Foresque end up similar in pricing with TreeHouse even though their units were more expensive. Anyway, I purchase at ~800psf and is guessing the prices you paid for (>1000psf) will drop big time come 2015. In case you haven’t heard, Bukit Panjang suffered the biggest drop in residential property prices recently. What I can I say….my hubby is a moron………….

I am surprise.....this area is famous for being ulu and that's the beauty of it.
I choose this place becos I was staying in bukit batok (rented) and the air was fresh and peaceful.
Investment has long term and short term - I would say this area is good for retirement and long term stay.
I am looking forward on cycling to orchard road lol
Of course, I am renting out my other places......which are more accessible but relatively more crowded.....

You will be surprise at the speed of construction nowadays with prefab construction.. I believe for this building, a typical superstructure turn around time for 1 level shd be ard 3-4 days.. most probably may reach level 8 by month end if failed to reach level 9.. of course this is barring any unforeseen events happening..

this place will command good price when population reach 6 millions, every mrt station will be packed with foreign talents and the only place you can find peace is your ulu playground. price will climb double when the population reach 6.9 millions. your hubby is not moron, he sees the future.

If it is for home stay, we need not care about the short term price fluctuation. Property price will always go up in the long term, especially in a land scarce place like Singapore. I am just looking forward to the forest and reservoir view. :)

Carpark i think is inside the hill or bump. Your definition of underground here probably implies that it is inside the "higher ground" consisting of level 1 n level 2.

Not sure why u folks buy any of the condo here. Especially those with children. You could be endangering their lives living in a mosquito enclave.
I believe it is mainly due to the constructions around. This is the first time it is a hot spot.

I choose this site becos by the time we move in all the construction (INCLUDING nearby MRT) would be ready.
Eco Sanc is not even ready to move in yet and obviously it's hotspot becos of the current situation (construction sites)
Think far, don't be silly making short sighted remarks.
MRT quite far larrrr, abt 1km....certainly not within walking distance. Maybe running distance if you like to increase your chances of skin cancer. No covered walkway some more.
Come on people, what quiet environment? Constantly being bombarded by traffic noises fr BKE?
My guess is Skywoods is better? Closest to MRT, a few hundred meters, no BKE noise and awesome Bukit Timah view.
Skywoods offering really good discount. Anyone know if Eco Sanctuary offering any good discount or freebies?

Only certain blocks/floors are noisy and got free shuttle! Also, nobody is stopping you from using an umbrella or dressing up like a ninja. :p

Let me tell u the reason
1) The gate is not grand at all. Totally worst then EC.
2) HDB looking design
3) pool is small and facilities is not attractive
4) Over priced (frankly u can get much better purchase with that price)
5) Developer is not very well known

Well known developer may not give you the best. I know and hear of cases of poor workmanship and old and rusty parts. They will give you a long list of instruction on maintenance. They are very experienced. Really have to check carefully when top.

To be honest, nowadays, condos all look about the same.
Some may find Skywoods look like HDB mainly because of the colour of the building - brown. Perhaps brown goes with woods.

While what u say maybe true but reputable developers care and usually will rectify promptly when reported.
Unknown developers may not be so keen in assisting you in your problem.
Of course, whatever I am saying is base on experience. It's up to u to go try it out yourself.
Go buy some smaller developments in geylang and u will see what I meant.

not sure what is your intention trying to misinform people and offend ES buyers....
let me make a few things clear...
1) ES is far from the MRT station - nobody here claimed it is walking distance except you
2) Noise from the road in front of Skywoods is also no joke - it is a busy road with constant and heavy traffic - although clearly not as bad as the BKE - it is far from the peaceful and quiet environment you are claiming - and in any case both ES and Skywoods have blocks with quieter facing
3) Skywoods is not as near to Hillview MRT as you claimed - yes walkable but not a short walk - in fact it is in somewhat in between type of distance where its not far enough to warrant a shuttle bus and yet not near enough for a convenient/comfortable walk - also no covered walkway and that stretch of road is dark at night so potentially unsafe
4) Skywoods has no good bus connection whereas ES being nearer to Bukit Panjang and the noisy BKE has buses that takes you to town in 1/2 hour and also buses to many other parts of the west and north areas
5) Skywoods is overpriced in my opinion - bad practice to jack up the price and then give high discounts - hard to trust and buy like that - who knows how much more 'discounts' and freebies they are going to give to later buyers with still so many unsold units? - ES price on the hand is consistent all along and there is no pressure from them to slash price with more than 80% sold - it is actually a good thing that they are not randomly giving discounts and freebies cause it will obviously piss earlier buyers off

not sure what is your intention trying to misinform people and offend ES buyers....
let me make a few things clear...
1) ES is far from the MRT station - nobody here claimed it is walking distance except you
2) Noise from the road in front of Skywoods is also no joke - it is a busy road with constant and heavy traffic - although clearly not as bad as the BKE - it is far from the peaceful and quiet environment you are claiming - and in any case both ES and Skywoods have blocks with quieter facing
3) Skywoods is not as near to Hillview MRT as you claimed - yes walkable but not a short walk - in fact it is in somewhat in between type of distance where its not far enough to warrant a shuttle bus and yet not near enough for a convenient/comfortable walk - also no covered walkway and that stretch of road is dark at night so potentially unsafe
4) Skywoods has no good bus connection whereas ES being nearer to Bukit Panjang and the noisy BKE has buses that takes you to town in 1/2 hour and also buses to many other parts of the west and north areas
5) Skywoods is overpriced in my opinion - bad practice to jack up the price and then give high discounts - hard to trust and buy like that - who knows how much more 'discounts' and freebies they are going to give to later buyers with still so many unsold units? - ES price on the hand is consistent all along and there is no pressure from them to slash price with more than 80% sold - it is actually a good thing that they are not randomly giving discounts and freebies cause it will obviously piss earlier buyers off

When you live in ES, nobody would care about MRT. The place is so serene and the views are simply breathtaking. I would prefer to live in ES anytime compared to noisy projects like J gateway or caspian where there really isn't much quality of life.

I am involved, one way or another with ES and Skywoods. TH and FR too. And I can tell you for sure that standard reply of "cannot offer additional discount to be fair to previous/early buyers" is simply to make buyers feel better. Developers dangle "hidden discounts" and "special freebies" all the time in today's market. Even those you think wouldn't or didn't.

Very good detailed analysis
There are transaction record everybody can see.
Those transaction records doesn't cover everything. If a developer decides to pay a certain % of ABSD, this will never be captured. That is just one example, there are many ways to skin a cat....

Friends, why all the hostility? No cyber-bullying pls! Calling your forum members as vultures is horrible. I would prefer if you provide better thinking responses.
Perhaps you are under a lot of stress? If so, perhaps living in the sky among the woods may just be what you need.

Hello neighbors! Construction progress for anyone whom may be keen to know: Tower C @ 22nd floor (I think.....based on my counting), Tower A and Tower B @ 5th floor.

Sorry neighbours, have been busy in the past few weeks. Just realized the forum has heated up somewhat! Perhaps it's the haze in the air? Take it easy, people. Peace!
There were some questions asked about TreeHouse north facing units' view being blocked by ES once they are fully constructed. Well, we did go in with our eyes opened so there is nothing to blame lah. In any case, block C helps to block out certain amount of noise (and dust I hope) from BKE. The beautiful Lower Seletar Reservoir view may be gone but I am looking forward to enjoy ES's pool view! :-P
Here are the latest photos taken today from my unit's vantage point. Will try to keep up with a monthly posts to share with you neighbours.
As for those unkind remarks, been seeing them in other estates as well so obviously seeking for cheap attention. Let's just ignore, forgive and forget. Cheers!

Was bringing a client to Eco Sanctuary today. Seemed as though construction is progressing rather slowly. Perhaps it's because sales isn't going anywhere hence construction is crawling at a snail's pace?

Any updates?
hearsay almost ALL SOLD!:emmersed:
80% sold (which translate to more than 100 unsold units) is not "almost" fully sold.
Anyway, can expect better sales moving forward since more and more "goodies" available.....
Today is buyer's market, not seller's market.

....if indeed true...you are a double agent.....guess no choice as you are desperate to make a living.... a real CMI agent...I just wonder what would happened if the developers get wind of an agent like you who talk down on one properrty that you are also marketing, to sell the other ones that you are also selling......
But my guess is you are spinning stories as no developer would in their right mind use an agent who is also selling their competitors properties.....

I see it as my duty to not just inform my clients all the good stuffs but also the bad. This will enable them to make their purchase with eyes wide open. And get the best bang for their bucks. Perhaps you prefer agents who tells you only good things or only the things you want to hear.

The website has been updated. Towers A & B will reach 13th level by end Dec. If they stick to this schedule, we should be able to see 24th storey by June 2015 (assuming 2 levels a month).

From there they need another few months to rectify the defects and handover. Estimate 6 months to top.

I prefer agents who is transparent not one who hides behind a nick and talk down on competing properties.....if ECO is bad...why on earth did you show it to a client????? IF Eco is lousy why are you trying to sell to a a client???? hahaha do not try to sound like a noble agent here....fake agent..

6 months can finish building 11 floors?

I mean when all 3 blocks reach 24 floors and it needs another 6 months or more to top.

if can TOP by Dec 2015 it will be very good news..but i think not very likely.

hello guys! just to share i actually wrote to SP Setia before to ask about estimated TOP. They got the project manager to reply and the info given was that the carparks, roads and drains are expected to complete in Dec-15 based on current schedule and TOP will be in the 1st half 2016.

i went yesterday...my block reach 7th floor
I went to the garden side to see the contruction progress. There is a gradual slope while walking along blk A to blk B. Thus, if the fence is based on the current fencing height as shown in the picture, level 2 unit is very prominent (eye-level) to the people who walk along the garden for blk A while blk B is higher a bit. Frankly speaking, the garden is not well-maintained. Looks like a small forest than a garden. The picture shows blk B.

hey i noticed the same too when i went to look the last time...people walking along the park track will see directly into level 2 of blk A & B and the distance is actually quite near...even if they make the fence higher its still very visible...dont think ppl staying at level 2 will be happy with that....similarly for block c directly outside the condo there is a community farm/garden...
The community farm has been upgraded over the last year, the authorities cleared the makeshift and random cultivating parctice there and rebuilt the entire plot with extended area and proper fencing, unfortunately those who were unable to get a plot or find their plot too small are beginning to add makeshift plots ouside the fenced area. Over time the place will prbabaly degenerate to be like a slum as was previously. The authorities should come up with better ways of managing such activities and with proper enforcement.
The people involved are mainly retirees whom carried their kampung days practices with little atetntion or awareness of the appearance of the environment in the vicinity of the community garden plots.
The units facing the hilly park will definitely need to contend with prying eyes into their units....there are actually benches where one can sit and enjoy reality shows being played in the units there.
Have any of you bro and sis taken a stroll or walk in the park or someone in this forum call it a forest? The smell of fertilizer from the community garden can be pretty strong..............ahhchoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hmm the park is full of ants, the community garden is very near Block C low level resident.
I did a walk before and whoever brought low level facing the HDB should have reckon that before committing.
But who knows few years down the road situation may change, keep it positive first :D

If you purchase based on the mock-up/model in the showroom, there is no "forest" or community garden. Just a beautiful well maintained park beside it. Very impressive. It's what agents call...........advertising.
You are right! Of course the situation will change. More ants and an expanding community garden.
Anyway, hopefully it's for own stay. Will be difficult to sell.

Ermm I don't agree with what u said.
Anyways, yes it's our resident's problem which I assume u did not purchase a unit since u put it that way.
Hello future neighbours! October has flown past just like that! So how much progress has the builder made in the past month? Tower C is now at the 24th floor. The other towers are fast catching up too. Thankfully they don't work beyond 10pm nowadays... I can see the swimming pool between Tower B and Tower C having its foundation being laid. Really interesting to see how the tower cranes get raised to new heights! Enjoy the latest views! :glee:

Selling at lower price of course is easy. The challenge is selling at a highest possible price.

Hi All,
Confirmed with developer that all bedroom will have builtin wardrobes. I am wondering whether it would be beeter not to build at least in the smallest bedroom (mine is a 3-bedder unit). This room is only 8sqm so a buildin wardrobe will make it difficult to put table or book shelf in.
Any comments, what are the pros and cons ? Thanks !
P.S, already contacted SP Setia that they could arrange as reqesuted, as long as we settle with our lawyer on all paper works.
What paperwork do u have to settle so that they don't build the wardrobe? Like that u got to pay legal fees. We can save the cost of the wardrobe letting them build for us

I think its a good idea.
The room is small so if they squeeze in a full size wardrobe will make it even smaller.
And no point having a wardrobe if you are planning to use it for other purpose like a study.
I might do the same too. Can you share a bit on the paperwork involve?
Also has anyone thought of how to create storage space since there is no bomb shelter? Real headache....

I do not know exactly yet, from what they replied, it seems not complicated:"It is possible to accede to your request not to install the wardrobes. However, we would require an official request from your lawyer in order to formalise this request, as we are currently bound by the signed S&P agreement to provide. #xx-xx is a three-bedroom unit, we would need to know which wardrobe is not required, also if the you like the materials to be packed and left in the room."
I think its a good idea.

I don't think it will be a full size wardrobe for two small rooms, as for many other condos seen in the market, they are rather small and simple. Someone told me there should be a detail floor plan indicating where wardrobe being built, not the one you posted 😄

It may be a good idea to find out what kind of wardrobe they are planning to install.
Best not assume they are going to be small and simple. I have seen large/bulky ones installed in small rooms.
As for the placement i dont think they can place it anywhere else apart from beside the door.

Problem is the current floor plan does not include the placement of the furniture such as the wardrobe or bed (whether a single or queen-sized bed can be placed), plus it does not help that the show flat removed both wardrobes in the junior master room and the smaller room in the 3 bedroom units, so it's kind of difficult to gauge exactly how much space is left after the wardrobe is built.
Any idea whether we can get the exact floor plan (including measurements in all rooms) from the developer now?

The floor plan shows 1 of the aircon ledge is too big like over built, the second wasted area is the main door walkway towards your living room, approx about 1.5 meter in width and 3 meter in length. You can't ultilise them, The designer should save these area and built a yard or storage area. My house has the same walkway that just leave them empty.

Yeah its crazy.
The size of the AC ledge is 5 sqm and the smallest room is 8 sqm.
And i think the balcony in the master room is pointless too, lol.
The main door walkway to living room there is a transparent glass to see into the kitchen.
Hard to utilize for anything.
I just got the reply from SP Petia. The brown portions are wardrobes. The wardrobes for master room is 1.7m x 0.6m, and 1.5m x 0.6m for two other rooms. Seems not small.
Anyway, I now have to think again, the place where they build wardrobe is quite to my like actually.
P.S, have to say that this developer is really not bad, so far very impressed with its service, look forward to my unit
Who did you contact to get the floorplan with wardrobes?

Nice! Thanks for sharing the info!
Remember the ceiling is quite high so the wardrobes will be spacious.
I guess they can be used as storage areas too, haha.
Did you ask them for pictures of the type of wardrobe they are installing?
I like this developer too! They checked with project manager and gave me very detailed answers when i asked about estimated TOP dates.
Happy New Year, ES neighbours! The worksite's noise is getting even louder on weekdays due to all the grinding and hammering of building internal fittings! Still, it can't be helped. At least it's inching towards completion, hopefully by year's end...:panda:
Here are the latest compilation of its progress from my vantage view. Note that the viewing platform at 14th floor of the tower nearest to BKE has been put in place. The view there should be quite spectacular!
Enjoy the photos!

Thank you once again, TreeHse!!
谢谢楼上的人，照片拍得好，我们自己到现场也拍不到这么清楚。
The sky bridge linking Towers A and B is up!
Hello neighbours! Another month has gone by and it's time for another update again! :-)
Finally, Tower C is all built up and the cranes have been dismantled! Phew! At the rate the construction is going, I believe towers A & B will be completed well before June. This means TOP may very well happen in Q1 2016. Noise and dust will soon be gone. :onthego:
Enjoy these latest series of photos brought to you by your friendly neighbour at Tree House!

According to their website, they estimated that Towers A & B will reach 22nd level by end Mar. Now already Feb and they are still at 15th level, not sure if they can hit their target. Progress slows down again...
Yeah. Setia like no urgency to complete it fast since they have money

Thank you very much, we went to visit it recently after seeing your pictures was quite happy with the serene surrounding.
We even drove around the area to get a feel and i love the it.
I think by 2017 when the mrt is up and all construction around the area is settle the place would be peaceful and air would be fresh.
Looking forward, and if u don't mind I post your photos on my fb :D
i think it is a very tight schedule. the CNY will affect the progess by one week.
Thanks for all the updates. :)
I just received another letter from my solicitor informing that the developer has called for another 5% progress payment (Tower B).

Yesterday, I saw Tower A and B are on level 16 already.... so from now another 6 weeks to go, they should be on time to reach level 22 by end of March.

Visited the show flat in early Jan and was told the show flat will be torn down by end Jan to make space and the show flat will be moved to the actual units in Tower C. But now it seems the show flat will still be around by end Feb.
