So how does this Watten Estate en bloc fair as a new condo launch? Let’s weigh its pros and cons:
The Good 👍 | The Bad 👎 |
✅ Rare freehold status in mature estate ✅ Only a 7-minute walk from nearest MRT station ✅ Located in the affluent District 11 of Singapore ✅ Can get to any part of Singapore in under 30 mins by car ✅ Overlooking lush greenery and surrounded by 2 national parks and landed residential enclave ✅ Spacious large-format units | 🤔 Nearest hawker centre is a 12-minute walk away 🤔 May be too secluded for those who do not drive 🤔 May come with a big price tag 🤔 Only 3-5 bedroom units |
Overall, Watten House presents itself as a compelling option for several obvious factors, including its freehold status, excellent access to public transportation, and its placement within Singapore’s esteemed prime district. Nonetheless, the advantages of the condominium’s vicinity to amenities might be most accessible to those with personal vehicles, as these conveniences, although plentiful, appear to be more conveniently reached by car.
Watten House is tailored to cater to affluent families who value residences that afford them views of lush landscapes and the serenity of low-rise structures nearby, as evident from their exclusive range of 3 to 5-bedroom unit offerings. Consequently, this emphasis on premium features could potentially translate to higher price points for its units.
