*Raises hand* 4r under mcps

Thanks for starting this thread!

both of us are staying in the north that's why chose to apply canberra plus my workplace also in the north. I'm curious as to why u guys chose this proj as well!

Anyone else applied under mcps?

Idk why they built so many 3r, tts undersubscribed whereas 4r is so oversubscribed.

 

[ShineBelle]

We applied 4rm with MCPS. How about you?

Yes, good luck to all applying.

 

[ShineBelle]

My other half stays in the North all his life and his parents live walking distance. Price is reasonable and future MRT coming up with nearby Chong Pang attractive to my other half.

We initially wanted to try Punggol but didn't like that the FW dorm nearby. So we looked at this project and we liked the future plans for this area better

 

[Shion]

Good location, upcoming MRT nearby.

But for now, lack of public transport. Only got bus 169.

 

[hydeyoshi]

I see no one create a thread on this bto ma.. Haha..

Anyway applied but not under mcps.. You all have better chance than me..

Honestly mrt is the main draw for me and also the price is reasonable..

I also think they shld have build more 4rm..

Thanks hydeyoshi! Was wondering why don't have. Hopefully the applicants in this forum will have the luck to get, hehe.

3rm is undersub here, also think they should have made more 4rms and all the buidings only till 11 and 12storey, make higher would have more units but of course more ex.

My guess is that they cant build higher due to height restriction as the airbase is nearby..

I think many ppl think sembawang is birds no lay eggs place but so long we can appreciate the place can liao..

Haha no worries la. Pretty sure the canberra mrt will be ready by the time eastlink is ready. Its the current earlier projects tts almost complete nw tt suffer.. bad transport and noisy/dusty environment.

Having lived in sembawang for the past 15 years, I must say I really love sembawang for its serenity. Its away from the hustle and bustle of the city life. I like to chill by the seaside at sbw park and jog along the canel.

The location isnt that bad afterall.. One stop away from northpoint and sun plaza.. Ssc also nearby.. Next time gt north south expressway also..

But for how long ? Around Sembawang, it is developing fast. Even Sembawang Beach they also renovate until very modern unlike last time which is more natural.

SSC nearby but no direct route in...

NSE a distance away. Luckily !

Those living along Sembawang Road at Yishun section may suffer as the viaduct passes on top of it...

Sembawang HDB BTO

On the Northwest of Canberra MRT Station there're 2 plots of land for Sembawang Road EC and The Brownstone EC. Both ECs are opposite Eastlace @ Canberra HDB Flats.

Not sure what's in store yet for the plot of land where the planned Canberra MRT Station is. Could be called HDB BTO Westlink I & II @ Canberra. Hahaha.

Anyway no matter what sure huat lah. The earlier you purchase the higher your ROI. Price quantum of Sembawang not so high yet.

The first batch of BTOs here (Eastwave, east bank) were under subscribed for 5rms. You could wait for HDB to launch them as SOBF down the road.
