Finding that perfect residence that would suit your lifestyle is quite difficult nowadays. With real estate investments built just right about every corner, one must find a place that could cope up with one’s busy schedule. It should be accessible but at the same time comfortable. These two things and more are certainly offered by this new condominium ideally located at the center of the metropolis. Your own sanctuary at the heart of the big city, NeWest @ West Coast Garden will certainly be your dream home.
Constructed by Oxley Holdings, this 12-storey residential and commercial shops mixed development is situated at the former West Coast Garden Shopping Centre. It is at West Coast way, next to the Hundred Trees Condominium. The area is located near many recreational and shopping attractions. Within 15 minutes, anyone could easily explore the Orchard Road Shopping Belt. Shop with friends at nearby Clementi shopping mall and afterwards, enjoy different activities at Jurong East Entertainment Centre. You may also visit the nearby Clementi Stadium or the West Coast Recreational Centre. If you are finding even closer destinations, just choose from the different commercial shops at your own building. Have fun by just walking out of your doorsteps.
It is also important to enjoy the wonders of nature for in close proximity are different national parks such as the Clementi Woods, West Coast, Kent Ridge, Telok Blangah. From these places, anyone could enjoy the scenery and experience peace and serenity. Just minutes away are two of Singapore main attractions: the Resort World Sentosa and the Marina Bay Sands. After a day’s work, dine at close by Japanese restaurants such Chako, Minoru, and Kyushu Nihon Ryori.
The accessibility this condominium has to offer is even better than all of these attractions. Go to any destination by taking the Clementi MRT Station or take your private vehicle by using the different expressways such as the Pan Island Expressway, Ayer Rajah Expressway and the West Coast Highway. Be early at work since Singapore’s Central Business District and the upcoming Jurong Business Hub are just minutes away. Parents and students would definitely like the fact that it is near many superb educational institutions of all levels such as National University of Singapore, Nan Hua Primary School, Clementi Primary School, Clementi Town Secondary School, Pei Tong Primary School and Qifa Primary School. Also in the neighborhood are the Japanese Kindergarten, the Japanese Secondary School and Spore Polytechnic.
What is even greater about NeWest @ West Coast are its design and architecture. All 72 apartments and 66 shop units are built in good quality. Fixtures are constructed to ensure a spacious environment for its residence. The layout of each unit is very functional without bay windows and planters. With the characteristic and location of this property, it is a great real estate investment. It shows great rental and capital appreciation in the future. Also, Newest at West Coast is foreigner eligible. It definitely is for everybody.

The latest sub-sale price of Hundred Trees will set the baseline for this development. As of this moment, HT has clock >$1500psf for studio.
Just my guess for NeWest:
Studio : $1600 psf
2-bedder : $1500 psf
3-bedder : $1400 psf
Since developer is Oxley, don't think they will have anything bigger than 3-bedder.

dont waste time speculating. There is a brand new HT right next to is for comparison.
The value of this development will greatly depends on how they are going to managed the commercial part of this development. If the sell it as strata commercial lot, then I think this project will be pretty messed up.

This price range is possible, considering 99-year lease hillion can be priced at similar range.

commercial space will sure be more expensive. If you include that to average out, then residential will be around 1500-1600psf.
I think the commercial space will be sold out pretty fast and furious
If its just around $2000psf or more... the commercial sure sell out....
anyway everything is for sale by Oxley.. who keen to be updated on showflat opening and floorplan/brochure? :D

There are only 237 parking lot for 277units including shops. This could bring parking nightmares to those landed property around it.

information I got is that commercial shop lots are separate from the residential.
Gated residential area for the town houses are located on the 2nd floor (above the shops lots), and this is inclusive of the carpark lot and facilities exclusive for the triplex townhouses only.
1 2 and 3 bedder are located in the tower block which will have their own multi-storey carpark and swimming pools. There will be a basement carpark which is open to public.

I think it could be in the region of 3-5K psf.
Oxley is going to make a killing on the commercial for this one.
And the residential property will just be icing on the cake.

Try some resale ones in town or those subsales. I think there are still some good buys.
Not everyone appreciate the value of a FH shop in town. They may just want to flip it to make that $100-$200K, give it to them and you confirm next time make 2-3 times what they make now!
Good Luck!

If Oxley can sell their commercial space at 4000psf, they should be able to cover their cost en bloc and construction cost. So anything that they sell for the residential could possibly be consider as profit.

Impossible, look at the price of Alexandra central. Furthermore, Alexandra centra is 99-year lease, this one is freehold.
However, the retnal yield of these retail units can hardly beat MM.
Checked a 17sqm retail unit at Queesway shopping centre last Dec, asking price was 800k, yet the rental is $1,600 only, and the rate for loan of commecial units is much higher than residental.
To me, I cannot understand why such commercial thing is so popular. unlike residential, rental for commercial units cannot be raised at owners' will even if there is strong demand. Why, quite simple, for residential, no matter how high the cost is, people need a shelter for thermselves. In terms of retail unit, if one cannot make money from it, why bother to rent it? better window shopping everyday.

Super ulu place... But good if you want to go AYE to go Tuas.. If want to go AYE to go city then have to go Jurong Town Hall Road.. To go MRT you either cross the expressway and walk 20 min to Clementi.. or take bus to Jurong East/Clementi... But good to know next time will have shop there.. can go there shop shop...

Sounds good. The area won't have too many illegal parking then. I expect the residents staying in nearby landed properties to be fighting with shoppers for parking space.

You need to updated yourself with Cross Region Line and Jurong Region Line. Where it intercept will be the west coast station interchange.
This is another mixed development site from Oxley.
So commercial site for this Newest should be the same or more since its 999LH.
OXLEY Holdings and Lian Beng sold about 60 per cent or 65 of the 107 retail units of The Midtown development in Hougang at the project's preview yesterday. They also found buyers for about 40 of the 160 residential units at Midtown Residences, BT understands.
The 12-storey mixed-development project will come up on the former Hougang Plaza site, which the duo picked up from CapitaMall Trust for $119.1 million last year. The site's lease has been topped up to 99 years.
The 160 residential units are understood to have been priced at around $1,400 per square foot (psf) on average after all discounts. The units range from 441 sq ft for a one-bedroom apartment with a study to 1,572 sq ft for a penthouse.
Absolute prices start at around $660,000 for a one-bedder on a low level, reflecting about $1,500 psf. The priciest unit, a four-bedroom penthouse, costs nearly $2.1 million, which works out to around $1,330 psf. Units at both ends of this spectrum are among those understood to have been sold.
The project's 107 retail units comprise 55 food and beverage (F&B) units, 51 shop units and a supermarket space. The F&B units are duplex spaces with sizes of 721-969 sq ft and are priced at $4,039 psf on average, or between $3,588 psf and $5,013 psf.
Absolute prices of the F&B units are said to start at slightly above $2.8 million for a 786-sq-ft unit; this works out to nearly $3,590 psf. The priciest F&B unit is around $4.3 million (or around $4,460 psf based on its strata area of 958 sq ft).
Shop units span from 258 sq ft to 893 sq ft and cost between $4,687 psf and $6,737 psf; the average price is nearly $5,800 psf. Absolute prices of the shops range from $1.5 million to nearly $4.2 million, BT understands.
Sources suggest that balloting was done for only about half of the 40-odd shop units and only a few of the 20-odd F&B spaces that were sold yesterday.
Gauging from this, as well as the response to Novena Regency released earlier this month, some market watchers are wondering if buying interest in new launches of strata retail units could be starting to thin, compared with the frenzy seen during the release of Alexandra Central in January and Pavilion Square in Geylang Road last month.
Transactions for strata retail units, especially small units, gained momentum in the past couple of years as investors diversified from the residential sector, which has been the target of various rounds of property cooling measures here. Demand has been spurred by the launch of projects with small strata retail units.
Last month, the Urban Redevelopment Authority introduced a minimum average size for retail units of 50 square metres (538 square feet), along with guidelines for minimum corridor widths for retail developments.
You need to updated yourself with Cross Region Line and Jurong Region Line. Where it intercept will be the west coast station interchange.
The word "West Coast" station keep mentioning.. but sad to say is not within the heartland of West Coast HDB estate whereby the West Coast Plaza (formerly as Ginza Plaza) are right now..
So far almost all the HDB estate will have MRT station.. but not West Coast HDB estate :(

The word "West Coast" station keep mentioning.. but sad to say is not within the heartland of West Coast HDB estate whereby the West Coast Plaza (formerly as Ginza Plaza) are right now..
So far almost all the HDB estate will have MRT station.. but not West Coast HDB estate :(
Actual name of the station is not confirmed, but location wise it should be there because having a station there will not just serves residents at west coast, pandan area, but more importantly rip huge reward for the government when they launch those empty lands for development.
Those living to west coast plaza will unlikely to get any station along that busy and narrow stretch of west coast road due to space constraint. Speculation at the other forum is that this "west coast" station will in future link up with Haw Par station to create an alternative route from west to the city. So the future station serving Clementi West (as it is called) will be along west coast highway instead.
I think this is highly possible because the pasir panjang PSA port will eventually be vacant out for future development.
i must be darn slow...
just realised this condo name is Newest.
imagine 20yrs later... would be such an oxymoron.

Hi...how is the sales and response from the public?
You should not visit any showflats. They are afraid you would preach price crash. But if price crash, will you still be employed??
Who thinks that the commercial units will become white elephants as the majority of investors are probably more keen on flipping than finding tenants. Moreover I'm not certain of the commercial viability of the location given it's close proximity to Jurong Gateway. Having seen the pathetic commercial situation at Alexis, it may turn out to be the same.
I have just visited the showflat.
1 bedder/studio is about $1700 psf, 3 bedder is about $1600 psf, and the cluster house is about $1100 psf. There are very limited number of apartments. Furnishing is average so the key attractions are proximity to the schools and Jurong Lake District, 956 LH, shops below+market nearby, and height of 3.3m to the false ceiling.
There will be close to about 100 parking lots at the basement for the shoppers. In addition there will be shuttle bus to the Clementi MRT. It should also attract some lunchtime driving customers from Jurong Lake District and Pandan Loop. This should ensure some flow of customers to the shops.

VVIP on 10 May tentatively. I understand quite a lot of cheques are received. The apartments should be the first to go since there are very limited units.

Just drove around Alexis area over the weekends, the commercial units are slowly starting to pick up. Tenants moving in.
In Singapore, I think there is a lack of commercial units. Population keeps going up but amenities are not going up at the same rate. In the past 5-7 years, there are too many commercial building torn down to make way for residential.
DKSG
My opinion on commercial viability still boils down to location. Both Alexis and Newest location were previously white sites with commercial activities that frankly did not do well. Most of the so-called shops ended up becoming offices or storage locations. Unlike a mixed development like Seletar V which has a strong retail management unit, these strata units developments tend to be headless chickens. Coupled with low customer base and not too ideal locations, it will end up just like their predecessor developments. Just my two cents.

@ 6000psf for a tiny shop lot, it will be very difficult to make money selling food for lunch crowd unless you have enough seating capacity to capitalized on the sudden burst in human traffic.
Did you ask how much they are going to charge for the parking? And where does the parking collection going to?

My guess is all prices will go up quite fast over the next few years to cover rental. The restaurants are decently-sized. I didn't ask about parking, I was just a busybody at the showflat to gauge the capital appreciation of Hundred Trees upon TOP in June. The shuttle bus will attract residents in the area who might be encouraged to shop more there. The good thing is the mall's internal common areas will be air-conditioned.

Novena, Geylang and Robinson all have got existing human traffic to support such high price, but for this site the only people that goes there at the moment are nearby residents who uses the bus stop.
anyway, its pretty obvious that Oxley are moving from MM apartment to MM shop lot.

If I had money, will support you to buy hundred tree at $1400 PSF, instead of this one at $1600.
HT people can also go shopping at NeWest, right?

21-05-13, 19:00
Answer is cos the sales aren't great :)
I went to the showflat today after work. Observations:
very quiet - only 2 other prospective clients
lawn outside the showflat has wild grass growing all over - just doesn't feel classy
they said they previously put up the "sold" stickers on the commercial units, but removed them. Leads me to believe that sales have not been great. Asked them how well sold, and they were evasive - I think the kiosk units (around 250 sq ft, just under $8000 psf) have been almost all sold except 2, but the other ones are under 50% sold (around $7,000 psf). The supermarket unit is also unsold.
for residential, most of the units in the tall block are sold. All 1-bedders sold except for 2 units, almost all 2-bedders sold. 1 bedders are around $1600psf for the 450 sq ft units. Maintenance for the 1-bedder is $300.
they have 3 rows of 4-bedder triplex units. Distance between opposite blocks is apparently only 7m!! You better hope your neighbour is nubile and not an old auntie. They disingeniously made the centra block "ghosted" so it looks like the space between blocks is bigger. I think the triplex units have not sold well.All in all, not my cup of tea. Does not feel classy. They advertise the development as being "almost freehold" :p

this one developers sure win lah. retail cannot sell, just keep it for rental income.
Did they tell you who is going to manage the car park?

21-05-13, 20:27
Re car park, I didn't ask. Or was that a rhetorical question? :)
They were using BS numbers for the commercial rental. Basically ($30psf x 280 sq ft x 12 months) divided by $2m = 5%, which isn't even very great, even with the inflated numbers.

because this is mixed commercial with parking, it will be interested to know who will manage and collect the parking fee.
As for the town houses, I think their layout is
(AYE) LK KL KL (West Coast)
L = Living K = Kitchen,
so there will be no Living facing Living situation. But still very close.
As a matter of fact, the units/developments facing AYE are under price pressure. Compare Botannia with Infiniti/Carabelle.
I am still wondering if HT can hold its current price.

Thanks for the enlightenment! :)
So, in most such developments, does the parking fee (either directly or a cut of it) end up with the MCST, or does the developer take it?

I think with the traffic jam, there should be less road noise since driving speed would be turtle pace. Noise polution would decrease. Ok, i agree property prices will increase.

No choice, with 6.9 mil, definitely there will be more cars, more roads and more buildings. It is either you face the road or you face your neighbours. Even sea facing is not a guarantee, going by the land reclamation plans.
Due to the worsening commuting issues that are to come, more people will shift closer to their workplace, parents and schools. I'm projecting that D5 condos will enjoy good demand for housing with the rise of JLD and increase in number of companies in Tuas area. After all, not many plots of land in the west are available for future condos :D

as I have said before, D5 is the closest 999 property to JLD. For any Singaporeans wanting to buy a place near JLD, they will sure have to consider D5 first.
Actually in 10 years time when PSA shift to Tuas, traffic should gets better because there will be minimal trailer moving around for transhipment.

That's what I thought too. But I realised they have no practical solutions; someone just proposes a theoretical solution which looks good on paper, and in any event they make some money.
FYI, there have been "traffic observers" (that's what their fluoro vests say) on the various overhead bridges in the eastbound direction in the mornings on the stretch of AYE from Infiniti till NUS High the past few days. Guess it's a related exercise.

I believe their plan is to divert traffic from AYE to West Coast highway which at the moment is under utilize because there are no exit route from Haw Par till Keppel.

22-05-13, 18:57
You are right. They are also going to start that diversion through Faber to Commonwealth Ave West. But I wonder how useful both re-routes will be.
I stay in Jurong West and work at Harbourfront; I have tried using West Coast Highway a number of times, but traffic flow is very slow, with quite a few traffic lights. For me, it will probably be slower via West Coast Highway than braving the AYE.
It used to be (around 1.5 years ago) that I would have somewhat smooth traffic as long as I am around Infiniti by 0715... now, the stretch from Inifiniti to NUS High is slow even at 0650...
On a related topic, I have never found out how traffic can possibly come to a full stop on the fastest lane in the expressway. How is the first monkey in the line who actually fully stops? Is it to allow another car to get into his / her lane?

Usu e trucks will b in 3rd lane, e vans will b in 2nd lane, n e cars can only take first lane. In between e lanes u have bikes.
When e cars in first lane want to exit, they will b partially blocked by e slow 2nd lane vans, n fast bikes in between e lanes, so they have to slow down tremendously. How to move fast eh?
The solution is trucks n vans cannot travel in expressways during peak hours.

Actually, on the AYE in the morning, from around NUS to Portsdown, sometimes the slowest lane is the fastest one, cos the (i) monkeys in the fastest lane will come to a crawl near the non-working speed camera near NUH, and (ii) trucks are mostly on the 2nd-fastest lane :)

actually its the opposite. Being one of the world top transhipment hub, by consolidating all our ports into one location, we will be more efficient and productive because we will spend less time and resources to move containers around.
At the moment if a ship call at Keppel, to catch a ship in West Coast port, they will have to unload, reload on the trailer, pull it out of port, drive to west coast port, unload and then reload onto another vessel
With a fully integrate port, you will just unload from one ship and and then reload, all within the port.
What abt e mfg plants in e east n other parts of e island? Pp also need to buy goods leh. We also need food n consumer products.

those located in the east tend to use more air freight transportation then those in the West, hence you can see that there are many logistic companies located in the east to facilitate the income and out going cargo.
Things like electronic, automotive spare parts, etc
Anyway, in Singapore our export cargo is very negligible as compared to the number of cargo we move around for transhipment.

23-05-13, 08:45
That's correct. Idea is to group all the ports in 1 place so that trans-shipment between terminals is much faster. That is the main selling point of Hutchison buying the competitor terminal in HK recently, for example. If things are timed well, you can even transfer from 1 ship to another ship without stacking them in the container yard.
And also correct on Singapore primarily being a trans-shipment hub, i.e. domestic export and imports are small as % of total. A lot of the haulage we see is actually trans-shipment between Keppel, PP and Tuas, hence the elevated highway on the Keppel to PP stretch, with an exit at Keppel right into the container terminals.
That said, quite a lot of heavy vehicles are not container trucks - in the mornings, you see a lot of buses, petroleum product tankers, Natsteel flatbed trailers, Pan-United cement trucks, ship-chandler lorries, etc. You can't possibly get rid of those.

Hope you are right on this. I shall study impact of the future shift of the terminals in greater detail.
I stay near there but never once did I even go to Hong Leong gardens for dinner even though there was supposed a good jap rest there. Rather off the way.

Hi...how's Newest sales so far? Today is the stock market crash. I wonder if it impacts today's sale?
This is y I wonder y e govt wants to shift e container terminals to Tuas. It is going to b v costly exercise n prob a mistake. The jam will slow down e movement of goods n create cost pressure for companies. It will worsen e jam. I hope I'm wrong.
The reason lies in this paper.....

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately (1) the year 2000 report was grossly out-dated with the pro-immigration policy around year 2005 and election result in 2012, and (2) we are facing severe housing, transportation and other issues today. Either the government din take up the recommendations or the recommendations were wrong.

Sis, a lot went as planned... Ubin, park connector, port, etc... Only the population.

I'm projecting a lot of areas will face worse grid lock during peak hours, thereby forcing workers to move closer to their workplace. Tuas and Jurong have e highest concentration of companies. If e Keppel n Pasir Panjang ports shift to Tuas, it is even better for me. I just wonder is it better to spread e shipping volume among three ports rather than have it just at one big port.

It is not going to be one big port, it will be several ports operate independently but located in one location, so that transhipment container will be contain within the port area. Very similar to how Jurong Island operate.
This will help free up AYE and West Coast highway for other purpose

Difficult to imagine how crowded the sea lanes will be. Prob collision might arise.

Not really if the port could speed up the transhipment process then more ships will be able to get through hence reduces congestion. the new port s also design for the super large carrier.

No idea how
but if you go down to the showroom and tell them that market crashed
maybe they will give you a 30% discount
for further discount of 10% if you tell them Gold also crashed

Newest is a terrific project - it is accessible to future JLD and within 1km to Nan Hua Primary school. It has access to AYE and West coast highway.
It is indeed a good project, though it is missing a tad bit of tranquility Mt Sinai possess.

Those missing a tad of whatever is nearly fully sold at $1,600++ psf ...
When you work out what that means for Mt Sinai, I think it is nearing $1,900 psf ... moving further and further away ...

The buyers are going to rent out a 280 sqft shop at minimum $6k a month? What type of merchandise can justify this rent?

13% price cut for the cluster houses did the trick. 16 poor buyers who bought in june got shortchanged.

The space for a supermarket has been sold.

I think the developers are smart to get rid of the residential component first and then slowly milk the commercial units.

that one been sold long ago.
