Mi Casa (D23, 99 Years, Far East Organization)

[quote=zoros]

Fortunately or unfortunately to either side, a condo beside all shopping and transport amenities will have better resale value and more popular with tenants/families than those located in a corner of the estate.

Time has changed since decades back when people commonly perceived that a very ulu-located FH is worth > than a super-convenient located 99 LH condo.

And do REMEMBER, the WORLD is always changing, and mindsets change too.....

i agree the world is always changing ...
somethings dont .. like ..in general ..when one is younger 20-35 ..he wants to be near amenities ...35-55 he prefers Quietness/serenity ( corner of the estate).... 55-85 he may prefer to be near amenities again ...

anyway i moved out of CCK ... so thats a change of mindset .. to closer to town ..5 mins drive ...

and soon in 2 mths time..i wil be moving again ... to Manhattan ...

so if you are still looking at CCK ... ??? your world hasnt really changed much

to all and potential CCK-ians .. I apologise if i sounded arrogant and sarcastic in my previous input ..

what i want to say is ...
the world is indeed changing ... but to each and everyone of us ..we still have our own world .. which very often doesnt change as quickly as the real outside world ..

so long as we are happy in our own world ..and adjusting with time, within our own comfortable pace ... thats good enough ..

No worries. We are all here to exchange ideas. Most of us are residing in CCK area...i.e. ve a vested interest in watever is going on around CCK.

As for you, good luck to your next move to Manhattan.

Ha, ha, I'm just the opposite of bro proud owner, shifted from 05 FH to CCK after married. Anyway, I found here much more convenient than my old house, and AYE is worse than KJE, and I never fancy a job in CBD. Now, I seldom go to "town" (Orchard), may be JB more often, as it is nearer to go "overseas"!

Same as bro jonleelk, will be stucked here many years as kids schooling here, unless want to ballot again.

Good to share info abt the condos here, me in NV, Zoros in Warren, may be 1 of these days we may be neighbours, or we may swap places !

Mi Casa: The Allure of a Mediterranean Lifestyle Now at your Doorstep.

The Miditerranean.The very word conjures up stunning scenery, friendly people, beautiful beaches and delectable cuisine, shared among friends and family. The region is famous for its passionate use of colour, set amid whitewashed walls and blue skies. It is the warmth, colours, energy and romance of the Mediterranean that has inspired the design of
Mi Casa - Spanish for "My Home".

MY INSPIRATION. MY HOME.

Imagine having tea on your balcony, as you gaze at sparkling azure waters and listen to birds sing. This is life at Mi Casa, the Mediterranean-inspired home of your dreams. Located in a tranqil enclave, Mi Casa charms with it's cascading whitewashed residential blocks, reminiscent of homes on Santorini, in the Greek Islands. Sporting spontaneous splashes of colour, these towers are designed around a waterscape dotted with island pavilions where you can relax in jacuzzis, host intimate dinners or simply gaze at the stars. Welcome to an idyllic paradise that you call home.

MY ROMANTIC GETAWAY MY PRIVATE ISLAND.

Love needs to be nutured. Take some time out for each other. Enjoy the company of your loved one on any of the four island pavilions dotting the central waterscape, each named after an island in the Mediterranean Sea. A relaxing massage? Strawberries and champagne, prehaps? It's like having a holiday on a private island, without having to leave home.

MY BLISSFUL AFTERNOON. MY LAVISH INDULGENCE

Whether it's lazing by the pool or having a splash of fun with family, you'll be loving every moment at Mi Casa.

MY LEISURE HUB. MY BREATHING SPACE.

There are days when you feel like your body needs a good workout. Call up your friends for an invigorating game of tennis or work up a sweat at the well-equipped gym. And on those days when you feel like having a moment to yourself, serenity awaits at the garden courtyards tucked in-between the residential blocks.

MY FUN-FILLED DAYS. MY FAVOURITE HANG-OUT.

Kids just love to have fun. Bring them to the spacious playground and activity area, and you'll find yourself smiling as you watch them learn through play. At the children's fun pool, slides, water spouts, and massage jet foundations provide hours of amusement. A viewing pavilion allows you to keep an eye on your precious ones while mingling with your friends. Come evening, the whole family can bond over chicken wings and hotdogs at the BBQ pavilion at the Garden Terrace.

MY TIME-OUT FROM THE WORLD. MY RETREAT.

MY SUNNY PARADISE. MY PLAYGROUND.
Endless fun beckons on lush green spaces, while blissful relaxation awaits under the blue sky.

will cck ever come up? The condos there seem really cheap even from ten over years when my relative bought palm gardens. My only view of cck is that it is largely a hdb estate n ths condo is a sure buy for hdb upgraders who love cck. So far have nt heard gov plans to develop the area n as of now lot 1 seems to be the only draw.

It really depends on the URA masterplanning development. It's quite true that CCK for the past 8 years, have not come up with any major plans to develop the area, but i believe that the government are really pushing very hard to promote Singapore as an attractive site for expatriates to live in and make the country prosperous. There could be an interlink from one area to another, so that along the chain, one vibrant point could impact the other. This is good news for us..but still subjected to government's planning.

[jonleelk]

CCK condo cheap meh? Definitely not MiCasa.

[franzmark]

$500 to $600 psf for a condo in singapore is considered cheap. for the same floor area, a condo at Illuminaire would cost you about 4 condos at mi casa, so mi casa is cheap relative to prime D9.

Choa Chu Kang has very few condo projects launched for the past 8 years. In addition, this could be the last condo project that government is allowing based on the master plan set in. With an exclusive explosion of the launch price for Micasa, this is definitely one opportunity that can't be missed. Far East has been providing quality condominium for many years, as it is also the largest private developer in Singapore. With 4 FIABCI award (Equalvalent to an OCSAR award) internationally recognised. Quality is never compromised in the building materials of the condomimium as well as the service quality that is assured throughout the project development.
Just my 3 cents of thought.

Warmest regards.

I said Mi Casa is cheap relative to D9 Illuminaire, but I did not say it is a good buy. 8 years without a launch in the area doesnt mean anything as there may be good reason why developers are shunning that area.

[Geylang OKT]

CCK seems ok. Not too near our northern neighbour... but near enough to the upcoming Jurong Lake District in the Master Plan

[franzmark]

then might as well buy jurong...

Some folks dowan industrial area

[franzmark]

You lucky this is not any of the jurong condo threads coz u will be ruffling some feathers by saying that...lol

Some folks dowan industrial area

[franzmark]

but again...i do agree with you that it is an industrial area..

[propertysale01]

True, but its still all subjective to government's planning. Anyway..less would mean niche..in some way...which also = exclusive. With substantial vibrancy going on, this could be a good reason to buy especially during this recession period, where price is actually a good reason to place in before the bell curve actually revert back to it's uptrend if the economy actually turns good when the bull market charges back. Life still goes on..even at it's worst. Nobody knows..

[Geylang OKT]

but again...i do agree with you that it is an industrial area..

Yes, noted your thots on it too

[rayray]

To add, sometime it's smell.

[Geylang OKT]

Smell from where? from the industrial sites or the workers?
