Sol Acres Condo - Singapore Largest EC in Choa Chu Kang

Sol Acres Condo - EC in Choa Chu Kang


Several ECs are in the pipelines for 2015 and Sol Acres EC is just one of them. Executive condominiums bridge the gap between HDB public housing and private housing but the decision to buy one or the other is not a given. Prices have narrowed and buyers should weigh the pros and cons because ECs come with a lot more terms and conditions.

Sol Acres Condominium Review

Sol Acres EC is a large development of over 1300 units with floor plans ranging from 1 to 5 bedroom units. The price of any unit depends on size, level and facing as well as subsidies and discounts. Prior to purchase, the buyer should consult the HDB on their eligibility and available grants and also consult their banker on how much money they can loan for the purchase as a result of the TDSR or Total Debt Servicing Ratio. More information can be obtained from the HDB and MAS websites.

A table of available websites can be found at SgPropertySource.com's Sol Acres EC link  and a study of the table shows tradeoffs between having a yard, a utility room instead of a study or between 1 or 2 balconies or PESs. Some units also have external vertical lourves and fins. The range of units available should accommodate most of the possibilities from couples without kids yet to multi-generational families.

The Sol Acres location is convenient to several major expressways and also the the LRT/MRT system. The closest MRT at Choa Chu Kang is only 4 stops away by LRT. Schools are plentiful in CCK as well as nature based attractions such as the Singapore Zoo, Night Safari, Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserve and the farm based attractions in Sungei Tengah.

Sol Acres EC is a good family choice especially for those working in the Jurong or Tuas areas and the northern part of Singapore.

Gramercy Park - New Condominium on 57, Grange Road, Singapore by CDL


The Grange Road area is right next to Chatsworth where several foreign offices and embassies can be found. The location of Gramercy Park in District 10 is a locale that is popular with expats and high net worth investors. Prices have fallen significantly over the past year and some investors with a bearish outlook on the real estate market will likely hold off for longer. The average psf for units in Gramercy Park is estimated to be in the $2.7 range. The smaller units start at 1.2ksqft for a 2-bedroom unit to over 7.3k for the largest penthouses. As befitting its posh address, the apartments come with high end finishings and designer wardrobe. There is ample parking and some lots are extra wide to accommodate the large luxury cars. Some 30 different facilities including a 50m lap pool are at the disposal of residents.

Gramercy Park is right next to the Orchard shopping areas and most amenities including access to the Orchard Road MRT is all within 1-2km radius. The design of this condominium was conceived by a famous architectural firm, NBBJ and offers excellent views of both the Orchard and Chatsworth area.
