Floridian Floorplan / Sitemap Leaked: Miami Theme?

There you go. Just remember you got it from Property Leak! Apparently only Tower 2 and 9 (Downtown and Hideawat respectively) are for sale (if i am not mistaken!).

Floridian: Update

Just got an update on the Floridian @ bukit timah and here are my thoughts.

A couple of stacks actually overlook the Good Class Bungalow (GCB) area in Bukit Timah, effectively removing the view that the Nexus currently enjoys. Somehow its a blessing to be behind this time! A long cascading pool runs through the estate and apparently one stack located at the end will enjoy the full view.

I always liked that area behind Bukit Timah Rd, it basically consists of really really huge houses and a nice large open field. Expect lots of greenery and a beautiful glow at night. If you are in the area, drive down Old Holland Road, and you might get what I mean. Now imagine that with a 10 storey view from the Floridian.

Price wise, I can't say that it is exactly a bargain, but it is merely following market prices from Cascadia's sale of an entire block earlier at ~$1500psf to a large investor (with mass discounts of course). Resale units of next door 10-year old Maplewoods was asking for $1350psf last time I checked, so this justifies the Floridian's pricing of ~$1680psf.

Floorplan wise, there are apparently large 4 rooms at 1800sf, rare in these days, as well as large 3+1 rooms. Oh, and for those MGS alumni, the school is just beside the condo.

Floridian Prices Leaked

Far East sure knows how to set the benchmark, $2000psf for Jardin and now the Floridian for an
estimated $1670psf upwards.

Floridian @ Bukit Timah Soft Launch! I Eat My Words!

Okay, big sorry to those people whom I led into believing that Floridian is holding out. Perhaps Far East Organization is finally using common sense and is launching the much awaited Floridian to sweep up the hungry mass market (Keep to the left along Bukit Timah Rd and there is a small slip road just after the white Cascadian showroom).

I always thought that Cascadia would launch before the Floridian, but this time its the later that will be doing the benchmarking.

Cheques are being collected already as I type...

Hillvista Prices Leaked

Only $1050psf to $1150psf for West Side Mass Market Living at Hillvista. Ugh.

Seriously what are the Fareast guys thinking? No one is going to pay those prices for something so deep in...but I have been wrong before!

Details:

• 2rm 915-1055sf (~1.21m)
  
• 2+1rm 990-1087sf (~1.25m)
  
• 3rm 1130sf-1238sf (~1.42m)
  
• 3+1rm 1184-1292sf (~1.48m)
  
• 4br 1292-1324sf (~1.52m)

FYI, $1.5m can get you a large, full seaview, high level unit along East Coast.

HillVista, Yet Another Mass Market Project

Watch out mass market, here comes another ultra overpriced project from Far East Organization! While details on this project is still sketchy, heres what I have found out about it:

Location: Hillview Ave
Units: 127
Price: $1050psf

Don't bother taking a look if you want a big 3-room. This is another Condo that features nothing above 1300 square feet of living space.

ICON goes TOP.

Well i was driving past and noticed quite a number of people fiddling around the area and got off to check.

Alas, it has gone TOP finally and my oh my...the ICON is really an icon. Heard that unsold units there are being leased out and marketed by our good old Fareast Agents - though a tad bit too pricey for my liking.

Launching this weekend. Really. Promise. Guaranteed.

Well heres a post in tribute of The Jardin by Fareast Organization.

Again my agent from Knight Frank called me to tell me how the amazing Jardin will be launching this weekend, and would like to have my blank cheque.

My response?

"Siao!"

Yes I have been watching The Jardin grow from whispers to now Universal Public Secret No.1. It's a really nice project (albeit surrounded by Garden Vista, King Albert Park and a Flyover) with modern designs and some green lungs at your doorstep.

But till now its the same every week.

Sigh.
