Bedok Residences

This is one of the few projects where buyers queued up before the show suites started taking in bookings. Apparently foreign workers were being employed to queue for buyers! This kind of scene was not seen for the past few years. So what is so great about this development?

The developer, Capitaland, is selling the project as a development with integrated facilities. You have the bus interchange and shopping mall just under your development. It is connected to the Bedok MRT as well. Very convenient indeed.

All in all there are 583 units in this development. The units range from 1 - 4 bedrooms. Do take note as the project is seamlessly connected to public transportation, don't expect it to be cheap. At the time of writing, a 3 bedroom unit, size 100 sq meter is going at S$1.43M. This works out to be S$1324 psf. The finishes of the units could be better, given the high selling price.

Therefore it boils down to the question, do you really need to stay above a shopping mall and bus interchange to enjoy seamless transportation? In my humble opinion, I don't think so. I will give the development as miss.
