    Location is bad. Killiney is a very busy road and the feel is not very high class as there are alot of run down shophouses. For this price look more towards Leonie side or on river vally itself.

    I live nearby so I'm very familiar with the area.

    i think the layout is not bad. this project is also behind AA and Residences @ Killiney? so can be considered more quiet. LOL. albeit getting in and out of Killiney traffic wise would still be the same.

    I hope u not the holland taitai who despise on lower class. Having shophouses does not mean define an area to be 'not very high class'.

    Sin shophouses have a lot of charm and value as they are preserved prewar houses. If u seen HK landscape what made their soho so high class? Is the mix dev of new and old Chinese walkup buildings. I cannot imagine sin having just new high rise buildings next to one another.

    Our next gen will not be able to appreciate those old housings in the 2nd world war if they are gone.

    I'm glad at least in tiong bahru we are still seeing these...

    And new development replacing Ming Gardens will complete the box-in effect. However, its exit is relatively close to RV.

    Precisely maybe our killing taitai should consider upper class in sentosa cove but lately got floating bodies. Hmm should I be more concerned with security than run down houses.

    not only meng gardens. beside AA Centre, there is this plot of land (South of Botanic on Lloyd) which apparently is owned by Far East. think they have been hogging the land for a loooooooong time. dunno when they will develop it. i m more concerned with how narrow Killiney road is going to support all the new developments along Killiney, St. Thomas and Devonshire area.

    Default 75% of The Boutiq units sold at soft launch

    Business Times - 21 Apr 2011

    75% of The Boutiq units sold at soft launch
    By UMA SHANKARI

    HEETON Holdings, KSH Holdings and TEE International have sold 39 apartments at their high-end Killiney Road residential project, The Boutiq, at an average price of $2,350 per square foot (psf).

    The companies said yesterday that 75 per cent of the 52 units released in the first phase of sales have been sold in a soft launch. The freehold District 9 project near Somerset MRT station has 130 units in all.

    Heeton chief operating officer Danny Low said that the developers are now giving buyers a discount of about 10 per cent off the list price. Prices will go up when subsequent phases are launched as the discount is scaled back and more choice units are released.

    'With its prime location, five-star hotel facilities such as porte-cochere (coach gate), concierge, welcome lounge, and well-designed lifestyle spaces, The Boutiq will be a compelling proposition for young professionals and cosmopolitan globe-trotters - anyone who appreciates the finest things in life,' said Mr Low.

    The architectural design of The Boutiq draws inspiration from chic boutique hotels around the world. The project's architect is Broadway Malyan Asia.

    Units in The Boutiq range from 506 sq ft to 2,853 sq ft in size. The bulk of the units are one and two-bedroom apartments.

    Heeton, KSH and TEE hold stakes of 45 per cent, 35 per cent and 20 per cent respectively in the development project. The three partners bought the site of the former Mitre Hotel in 2009 for $121-122 million - or almost $1,100 psf of potential gross floor area including a development charge.
    At Heeton's other high-end project, iLiv@ Grange, none of the 30 units on offer have been sold even though the project was unveiled in June last year. Units at the Grange Road condominium are expected to sell for above $3,000 psf.

    Heeton began construction of the project last year. It will step up marketing efforts in the second half of 2011 once a new showflat is ready, Mr Low said.

    The company also hopes to resume selling units in The Lumos in the second half of the year once the project is completed.

    Sales of units in the Leonie Hill project have been put off since early 2008 as Heeton and its partner Koh Brothers waited for the luxury property market to recover. As at end-March 2011, 19 out of the project's 53 units have been sold.

    Shame on the developer for trying to trick potential buyers into thinking this project is hot, and shame on BT for part of the trickery.

    I noticed that the same article mentioned that Heeton had many other projects in CCR that are barely selling. But you need to read to the end of the article to see that. All trickery. BT is complicit in the trickery.

    Can they please stop calling 500sq ft shoebox "luxury" PLEASE?

    And this iLiv@Grange can't even move ONE unit since launch last year (and the excuse about units are big are lame because they're just standard size)? Epic fail.

    Slow take-up' for high-end homes
    Straits Times Apr 21

    LUXURY home sales in Singapore are still being hurt by economic turmoil in the United States and Europe, although buyers are trickling back, said a top executive at local developer Heeton Holdings.

    Another factor is that the Republic is competing with many choice locations as some high-end investors also look to places such as London, Heeton chief operating officer Danny Low said yesterday.

    He was speaking on the sidelines of the soft launch of The Boutiq - a 130-unit high-end freehold project in Killiney Road on the former Mitre Hotel site - jointly developed with KSH Holdings and Tee International.
    Since the project went on sale early this month, 39 out of the 52 units launched so far have been bought at an average price of $2,350 per sq ft (psf). Half of the buyers were foreign - mostly Malaysians.

    Later phases will be priced at a higher level as the initial 10 per cent discount off the list price will be reduced, with more units released, Mr Low said. Nearby, 84-unit Devonshire Residences sold 53 units at a median price of $2,505 psf last month.

    Mr Low said the consortium did not lower its list prices as a result of the Government's property market cooling measures in January. The consortium had already priced its project lower than its competitors' as it had acquired the site at a 'very good price', he added. Mr Low said Heeton's other luxury project, the 30-unit iLiv@Grange, will be relaunched in the second half of this year. The Grange Road project has had no sales since it was launched in June last year.

    On the differing buyer response to both of its upscale launches, Mr Low said: '(iLiv@Grange) is an even higher-end project above $3,000 psf. The sizes are also larger, so the quantum is larger. It's a different target market.'

    Heeton and Koh Brothers' The Lumos project in Leonie Hill, to be completed in July, will also be relaunched this year. The 53-unit project has sold 19 apartments at an average of about $3,200 psf since it opened for sale in 2007.

    On whether luxury home prices will regain their 2007 peak, Mr Low said prices would catch up slowly, but were unlikely to surpass the previous high this year. The consortium also hopes to launch its recently acquired collective sale site, Camay Court, this year after it completes the purchase in June.

    Upcoming new launches include Wing Tai's Foresque Residences in Petir Road, which agents say will be launched at $1,000 psf to $1,200 psf. Auralis at East Coast and H Residences in Telok Kurau are also expected to be previewed soon.

    Separately, City Developments said at its annual general meeting yesterday that three more launches - Jean Nouvel Residences, Buckley 9 & 11 and a Segar Road executive condo - are due by June.

    Its executive chairman Kwek Leng Beng told The Straits Times that the cooling measures have helped curb speculation and stabilise prices. 'Since then, property prices have come down in some cases or have remained the same in others. Volumes declined initially but have gone up again as a result of the increase in launches by developers.'

    Buyers are confident in Singapore's medium- and long-term future, with the Government laying a solid foundation for growth, he added

    to buy a MM unit in this project, a buyer has to shell out roughly $1.4 million. for that kind of dough, the buyer can buy a OCR condo with a more reasonable size. and he would spend only slightly more time commuting to work in CBD.

    why would anyone buy a MM unit in this project is beyond me. I guess most of the buyers are investors thinking of good yields. well, they will be disappointed.

    I concur with u. How can a shoebox 500sqft ever consider luxury. It is miserably small - living and dining combined into a common place, little walk room, pathetic bedroom size leading to tumbling over the hinges of the bedframe etc.

    Perhaps BT or even public label orchard as luxury living due to all the luxury goods and branded and high-class residents living in that district.

    Vision, a west coast project by renowed dev cheungkong shld be labelled as luxury. Good top finishings, at least from showflat and sky lounge overlooking the coastal, landscaping with diff themes of garden. This is really luxury!!!

    Default The Boutiq (D9, Freehold, HEETON Holdings, KSH Holdings and TEE International)

    Published April 21, 2011
