New Condo at Chestnut Avenue - Tree House by CDL

Sales Preview starting this Thursday.

Need to "register" with an agent, with IC and a blank cheque (YES!) to secure a place for viewing showflat and balloting!...to enjoy "early bird discounts".

Location is very very quiet, with NOTHING surrounding...good for nature lovers.Very near BKE,but not so near from the nearest LRT,or future MRT.

Layouts are simple, practical and functional,No surprises,no odd corners.Slight difference in sizes for different floors for same stacks are mainly due to difference in sizes of balcony.

It's 99 yr LH by CDL. I have confidence in CDL's projects so far, but what we have viewed before are mainly freehold or 999yr projects.Not sure if their 99yr LH projects are as good?!

Agents didn't have firm prices yet, but guess it would be around $700+ psf.

The Visions in West Coast

We visited the showflats on Good Friday,as after-breakfast activity.Partly because we are curious why it's priced above $1000 psf,much higher than Blue Horizon next to it, which is also 99 LH.

After visiting, I am still not convinced that it's worth the price. Yes, they did use lots of high end,premium brand fittings and fixtures.But it's not going to cost anyone more than $100k to install those. And who needs chandelier in common bathroom???

The 2 bedroom units left are not ideal facing. One on 3rd floor,904sqft,facing stair cases to pool cost S$982k. The others,818sq ft units don't even have attached bathroom.It's sharing a common bathroom with the other room,not ideal if one is buying for investment.

Layout of the 4 bedroom units are quite nice and pratical,but they are all sold-out! The agent said the remaining unreleased units are all having afternoon sun,something I am qutie sceptical, as this is not an usual tactic adopted by other developers.

New Partner in our Company

Yes, there will be one.

Hb doesn't really like this person's character,neither do I,but we have no choice....it's a long long story.

Our comapny will no longer be Private Exempt Company, and I can foresee there will be some unhappiness,but I have no choice,no control....whatsoever...

BTW, the Geomancer we inquired in Taipei a few years ago, did specifcally warned my hb not to "partner" with other people when doing business, and not to be guarantor for anyone...Reminded hb about this, but he just brushed it aside with black face...

B2's 1st day in school...

B2 started her Playgroup at Tulip Montessori on 07 Apr 2010. It's a 2x/week sessions, from 10.30-12.30pm. Fee is $550/term of 10 weeks. There is a deposit of $220, $50 registration and $18 for a set of uniform.

I would say I have prepared her quite well for the playgroup. Bringing her to visit and join the class before signing up.Keep teaching her the songs that the sang,and talked to her about going to school, whenever there are such scenes on TV.

She enjoys her playgrouop very much, didn't cry and didn't show any separation anxiety. Finished all the snacks that I packed for her. She didn't seem to have any appertite after school,but would sleep for long hours.

The backpack that she's carrying was passed down from B1. B1 used to carry the same backpack when she attended Tullip Montessori. That's Esprit backpack bought from Bangkok in 2003!
