Meant for people with deep pockets where money is not an issue. Everything must be Grand and showcase extreme class and quality.

Cheung Kong sells 50 units at Thomson Grand's preview
By KALPANA RASHIWALA
SINGAPORE - Hong Kong's Cheung Kong Holdings said on July 8 that it has sold all 50 units at its Thomson Grand condo project in Singapore set aside for the first day of preview.
The two- to four-bedroom apartments were sold at prices ranging from about $1,100 per square foot to $1,600 psf, reflecting an average price of about $1,400 psf.
Eleven of the 22 strata terrace homes in the 99-year leasehold project opposite Singapore Island Country Club were also sold, with the highest transacted at $4.1 million.
The developer said it will now release a further 20 units for sale this weekend.

Today max 4.5% discount. Stack #19-18 1689Sqft was $1,470psf after discount.
Terrace houses with 5000+ Sqft are min $3.4M or $ 660psf after discount. They sold about 8 units already.
Be Heard, not the Herd

Their marketing worked. Money was no object to that 50.

But that one got no view. This one got view and grand finishing. No mrt and no hdb malls better. Grand living not meant to mix with hdb crowd. Got exclusive thomson plaza and golf course view. Unique boutique shops and restaurants along upper thomson and thomson roads.
Grand living not meant to squeeze with people in popular sub urban malls during weekends, and certainly not for wannabes buying MM units.
Senior
At this rate. july's new home sales number is going to be hot hot hot!

Then they must also add fanciful gimmicks into their showflats and must have special features in their project before they can launch at $1600 psf...

Yes yes... for those who can buy and afford to leave that unit vacant for many months/years before deciding to come in for the summer vacation or weekend stay to play golf.But that one got no view.

Yah because those who bought believe that other buyers are of this kind of level, won't anyhow firesale when recession comes one. The higher the price the better haa haa, phase out those who cannot make it.Yes yes... for those who can buy and afford to leave that unit vacant for many months/years before deciding to come in for the summer vacation or weekend stay to play golf.

Wow well done LKS ! Another vision in the making !

No new developement in this area for a long time. So probably the reason for the strong response. Will be interesting to see how many local buyers...
Junior
50 units is not a lot. I'm not surprised if mostly sell to own people in dodgy deals. Hong Kong companies are famous for that. i still remember not too long ago the highest PSF transacted in HK of US$11,000psf turned out to be a fluke which is essentially selling to own companies. A few high profile individuals were investigated for that.
Senior
I suspect this is the scenario too. Upper Thomson is never a place where the super-rich or flamboyant people like to stay. It is an area more for humble rich people and loud condo designs or supercars are not their cup of tea.

Full page and stamp preview.... Why not full launch....
Might as well say 99 launched and taken....
Senior
i think i have seen lambors or ferraris in the soo chow estate.

Their strategy is to launch in small batches and with reducing discounts. This puts pressure on buyers to commit before the next launch which will be at higher price. Those units they launched were quite good.
I feel that the 2 bedders have better facing than the 3/4 bedders. They are further back from the main road therefore less traffic noise. And they face more of the reservoir side (water) rather than the golf side. I personally like the reservoir view (more to the north) better than the golf view. Around the 18th to 20th floor is a nice height. Can see far into the distance for the reservoir yet not so high that you can still see the individual trees of the nature reserve. The City View will be somewhat blocked by Gardens @ Bishan.

so-so project but not so-so pricing

70% local upgraders.... Seriously?

Very few compared to the condos I see at Orchard road like Ardmore park. Their basement carparks are full of these supercars. Amazing that it still manages to sell. Let's see what happens after the units with good views are taken up.
