Buyers snap up 70% of units launched at The Tapestry

Mar 26, 2018


About 315, or 70 per cent, of the 450 units released at The Tapestry in Tampines were snapped up over the weekend.

The average price per sq ft is $1,310.

Yesterday, developer City Developments (CDL) said all unit types had a "good take-up rate", particularly the one-and two-bedroom units.

The Tapestry, which has 861 units, is a 99-year leasehold property comprising seven 15-storey blocks, with unit sizes ranging from 441 sq ft for a one-bedroom unit to 1,765 sq ft for the largest five-bedroom, dual-key apartments with a study.

Prices start from $596,000 for a one-bedder. The two-bedder units are going at $796,000, and the three-bedders at $1.15 million.

Prices are $1.65 million for the four-bedroom units and $2.1 million for the five-bedroom, dual-key with study apartments.

The remaining 411 units will be released progressively.

CDL said 76 per cent of the buyers for the first launch were Singaporeans, while the remaining 24 per cent were permanent residents and foreigners from Malaysia, China, India, Indonesia and Hong Kong.

Among the buyers was Singapore Paralympic swimmer and medallist Theresa Goh, who bought a two-bedroom premium unit.

On March 15, CDL group general manager Chia Ngiang Hong said the firm had received "very strong inquiries" for the launch of The Tapestry.

He added that CDL expects "good take-up" from new home buyers, upgraders and investors.

The property, which is located in Tampines Street 86, is developed by Bellevue Properties, a wholly owned subsidiary of CDL.

The Tapestry is the "first premium suburban condominium" to be launched this year, said CDL, with over 50 facilities, including a 100m infinity pool, 24-hour gym, and a childcare centre.

Home owners will have the option to adopt a smart voice assistant that enables them to control most smart-home devices by voice.

CDL closed down 31 cents, or 2.4 per cent, at $12.88 last Friday.
