Huttons Tips! North Park Residences (Integrated Development)

terchange. Further,

Northpoint City also

incorporates the Nee

Soon Central Commu-

nity Club (a first in

Singapore), as well as

sports and recreation-

al amenities. The lim-

ited availability of inte-

grated developments

in Singapore means

that NPR should gen-

erate good value

growth in terms of

Capital Appreciation &

Rental Yield in years

to come.

With its expected

completion in 2019, North Park Residences

together with the North-South expressway as

well as other new developments will change

the face of Yishun and bring more buzz and

activity. Be a part of it!

North Park Residences (NPR) by Frasers

Centerpoint got off to a roaring start as over

5000 excited buyers and investors flocked to

our showflat on its opening weekend. It was a

great start as no project has garnered such a

crowd since TDSR was implemented. North

Park Residences has been the talk of the town

and its much-awaited

opening was widely an-

ticipated by buyers

throughout Singapore.

On preview day (5 Apr),

313 out of 430 units were

snapped up at an aver-

age price of $1300psf, a premium of $200psf

over projects in the same area. By the end of

the first week (12 Apr), 413/600 had been

sold. Prices range from $612000 for a 431sqft

studio to $1.89mil for a 1432sqft 5-bedroom

unit. There are 920 units in total.

The strong interest in this project can be at-

tributed to North Park Residences being a rare

integrated development directly connected to

Northpoint City, the largest shopping mall in

the North with over 500 shops and 850,000sqft

of Retail GFA. It is also connected via an un-

derpass to the Yishun MRT station and the

Yishun Integrated Transport Hub and bus in-

Crown at Robinson is an

80-unit freehold strata com-

mercial project located in the

CBD, Robinson Road, just 2

minutes away from the up-

coming Shenton Way MRT

and 3 minutes stroll to Tan-

jong Pagar MRT. For busi-

ness owners, Crown @ Rob-

inson boasts a great location, a

superb business address, and

close reach to convenient

transport networks within the

CBD. Investors seeking a pie

of the commercial market need

look no further.

Rare & Freehold! At $3500 -

$3800psf, Crown @ Robinson

is a rare freehold opportunity

with potential for rental yield

and capital appreciation. Office

rents are widely expected to

continue rising this year amidst

a tight supply situation, with

occupancy rates in the down-

town area (of around 90%) at its

highest over the past 5 years. Best

of all, there is no ABSD & SSD!

Open for Level Sales! Following

its preview on 20th March, Crown

@ Robinson is now currently open

for level buyers for levels 11-17.

Don’t miss this rare chance for im-

mediate lock-in!

The 797-unit development is a

mere 3 minutes walk from

Bartley MRT and near top

schools such as Maris Stella

High School and Paya Lebar

Methodist Girls’ School.

70% of its units are priced be-

low $1m, with prices starting at

$598000 for one-bedders to

$1.65m for a 3-bedder. This is

one of the last residential de-

velopments in the Bartley area.

Attractive Pricing! Surrounding projects such as Bartley

Residences and Bartley Ridge sold at average prices of

$1,250psf (launched 3 years ago) and $1,263psf (launched

2 years ago) respectively. In comparison, Botanique at Bart-

ley’s selling price is very attractive, which explains its appeal

to both home-seekers and investors. Current supply is also

limited in this vicinity - Bartley Residences is fully sold, while

Bartley Ridge is more than 97% sold.

Botanique at Bartley by UOL Group

garnered strong interest on its preview on

4 April, where it sold more than 50% of

the 300 units released at an average

price of $1290psf. Local buyers and for-

eigners praise its high specs, unit layout,

lush nature living, and realistic pricing.

Singapore’s Founding Father,

Mr Lee Kuan Yew passed away on

23rd March 2015, 3.18am at the

Singapore Gen-

eral Hospital. He

is a visionary and

admired leader

who was an in-

spiration not just

to Singaporeans,

but to many

across the world. He dedicated his

life to Singapore, founded and built

it in one generation, to a first world

country that is well envied. With-

out him, we will not have our suc-

cess today.

Huttons associates paid their respects to late

Mr Lee Kuan Yew on 24th March 2015 at the

designated tribute centre at Ang

Mo Kio Central Stage @ Ang Mo

Kio Town Centre. A wreath was

laid on behalf of all in

Huttons as a mark of

respect.

Hundreds of associates

came together for one minute of si-

lence and three bows in respect to

the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew.

The best way we can honour Mr Lee is to continue living his spirit of Integrity,

Meritocracy, Courage and Learning.
