To welcome the start of 2020 on the public real estate front, we have our first BTO sales launch of the year in the estates of Toa Payoh and Sembawang.
For this feature, we find out more about the Sembawang sales launch, which includes the number of units, the estimated costs and also what’s around the area.
Did you know the first HDB BTO sales launch took place in Sembawang? The BTO was called River Edge and had 447 4-room and 5-room units! Oh how things have changed in the past 19 years!
For this Sembawang BTO launch, there will be 15 ten-storey blocks of 1,1,467 2-room flexi, 3-room, 4-room, 5-room and 3Gen units up for grabs.
If you’re eyeing this BTO sales launch, you better be prepared that you will come up against huge competition seeing as Canberra MRT is right by the residence. Introduced late last year, Canberra MRT is in between Yishun and Sembawang stations and is the 27th station on the North-South line. So you won’t have to worry about going all the way down to Sembawang MRT to get access to trains.
If you’re one for living in nature, you’ll love staying at Canberra Vista where there’s lush greenery all around. There’s also the Sungei Simpang Kiri that passes around the area so you can be immersed in nature.
Nature lovers will also look forward to some green parks located all around the area such as Sembawang Hot Spring Park, Sembawang Park and the Montreal Green neighbourhood park. Here you can take a leisurely stroll after a long work day or get in workout in.
Besides getting easy access to Sembawang Shopping Centre for all your shopping and F&B needs, you can also look forward to the upcoming Canberra Plaza neighbourhood centre. The three-storey Canberra Plaza has multiple communal facilities for everyone to enjoy, such as an water playground for the little ones together with an event plaza where you can expect many exciting activities week-in week-out. What’s more, you get access to supermarket, food courts, restaurants and more!.
