  Heartlander condo

  I was watching this condo, after the enbloc of Fairways. The entrance faces inwards of Telok Blangah Road, so it is not that near to the MRT Station as mentioned. VivoCity is still a distance away. To gauge yourself, visit the condo Enbloc is a potential for this condo and, if done quickly, may fetch a good price. Fairways was sold to Bukit Sembawang and it makes sense for them to bid a higher price, so that the site can be joined, although Fairways is already a nice size at about 150K sq ft. I, also understand that the owners are also keen on the enbloc. This condo, has some potential for the time being, as there is not much condo at the moment. Come 2025, when PSA moves to Jurong and the area seaward of Telok Blangah will be developed into seafront housing, then you gauge the impact. Overall, it is a touch and go, if you buy into this condo. If you know history, in the early 2000s', you will see the cracks along the entire height of the condo with the patching work being done and the gondola moving up and down. It is a sign of water seepage and poor workmanship One plus point is the support of the Telok Blangah neighbourhood, where the food can be a bit cheaper. That is if you don't mind the heartlanders. Good luck.

  Harbour View Towers is a condo nestled within an HDB area with good proximity to ammenities. Close to Vivocity. Was looking at buying a unit there. Overall feel and surrounding moderately good but my last visit there saw it sporting a new lobby colour which was different from the building's Iconic White colour. Its a shade of beige, pink and light brown. Sadly, this makes the place cheap as its entrance being the first point of entry, looks a bit like an HDB. Otherwise, the carparking is ample and pool area looks and feels comfortable. Good for expats and executives with young families.

  Great choice for expats rental

  I have just shifted to this 2bed renovated unit, here are my views of this project.. 1. Excellent location, Bright rooms, Windy and refreshing sea breeze throughout the day. 2.Near Central Business District, Sentosa and my favourite VivoCity Mega Shopping Mall. 3.Public transport is readily available especially with the Telok Blangah MRT station at stone throw distance ready in few months time. (really looking forward) 4. Nearby HDB housing for groceries (NTUC), hawker food and other amenities which is wonderful.
