It’s amazing how fast time flies, and here we are already in the middle of 2024. The housing supply crunch is in the midst of being reversed, and new launches are still moving despite the $2,200+ psf price tags.
Since Chinatown is just one stop from Outram Park MRT , we'd count it as having good access to four different train lines, making it one of the best-connected condo options around.This is a Harbourfront area property, in line with projects like Reflections at Keppel Bay . Of the various Keppel projects here, The Reef may be the one that leans most toward the investor/landlord side of the equation.
The other big draw is, as the name suggests, the waterfront view: this project literally is next to the dock and faces Sentosa on one side and Mount Faber on the other. You also have Singapore's first floating pool, which is still something very novel and not easily replicated in other developments. There's also a real possibility that, with the development of the Ophir-Rochor Corridor, District 7 could potentially overtake Districts 9 or 10 as the heart of Singapore.
One big draw to living here is the proximity of the reputable Maris Stella High, which is walkable , and Bartley Secondary which is even closer .This is the former Liang Court Mall, and it’s one of the most accessible condos to date. You can enjoy direct, underground access to Fort Canning MRT station and Clarke Quay MRT station is within walking distance, with Chinatown just one stop away.
The only issue is that Canninghill Piers will never be in a quiet area, and traffic here is inevitably heavy. It’s also not so much for families, as there’s a distinct lack of school access .
