THOUSANDS of potential buyers thronged the showflats of private condominium projects Forest Woods and The Alps Residences over the weekend when they were first opened for preview.

MCC Land's spokesman said some 6,000 visitors were recorded over Saturday and Sunday, attributing this to a lack of new condo launches in Tampines since the launch of The Santorini, also a MCC Land project, in 2014.

More than 2,000 visitors visited the showflat of Forest Woods in the first weekend alone, a spokesman from City Developments Ltd (CDL) said. The project by CDL and its partners Hong Leong Holdings Ltd and TID Pte Ltd is said to be priced at an average S$1,300-1,500 per square foot (psf), according to agents. Nearly one- third of the units are likely to be priced below S$1 million.

A substantial number of cheques have been collected as expressions of interest for both projects but there are no official counts yet by the developers.

The strong turnout at the two showflats exceeded the expectations of market watchers, who had anticipated keen interest for the projects based on location and pricing.

"If these are translated to actual bookings, we believe they can be seen as a signal of further stabilisation in property prices," said DBS analysts in a note this week. "The property sales volume next month could be an interesting data point to note."

RHB analyst Vijay Natarajan said the strong turnout at the Forest Woods showflat suggests that there is a "dual-track property market" where some new launches will stand out amid an overall lull in the residential market. "In comparison, developers with unsold units in older launches are finding it hard to compete."

Apartments at the 519-unit Forest Woods are priced from S$688,000 for a one-bedroom with study unit, S$838,000 for a two-bedroom, S$1.1 million for a three-bedroom, and S$1.65 million for a four-bedroom, according to CDL.

Its location is seen as a major advantage given its proximity to NEX shopping mall and the MRT station. All eyes are on how sales will perform at Forest Woods given the involvement of Singapore's three largest agencies - ERA Realty, PropNex Realty and Huttons - as official marketing agents.

As for the 626-unit The Alps Residences, some 80 per cent of the units (including 1, 2 and 3-bedroom units) are priced below the S$1 million mark. This project will begin sales on Sunday, likely one week ahead of Forest Woods.

Forest Woods at Lorong Lew Lian is a 99 years condo by the consortium of City Developments (CDL), Hong Leong Holdings and TID that put the top bid of S$321 million. Stand tall on an ample of 14,001.5 sqm along Lorong Lew Lian & Paya Lebar Road in Serangoon, this prestigious condo can be home to 519 residential apartment units.

"Some developers may wish to replenish their land banks given the more subdued market, and the absolute price quantum of this land parcel might be within the range of quite a few large developers and consortiums," SLP International executive director Nicholas Mak noted.

Forest Woods Condo Factsheet

Design Concept

FOREST WOODS

Inspired by the development’s lush landscaping, greenery and trees. Woods as a name signifies the tranquillity and serenity of living amidst nature, an expression of a rich surrounding of botany to reside in peaceful harmony

Inspired by the historical context of “Serangoon” which is thought to be derived from the ranggong bird, a species of stork which abounded in the riverine swamps around Serangoon River or the Rangoon River, the development aims to capture the sense of nostalgia and lush shades of forest that is present on the existing site.

The architectural language is kept to pure forms, bridging between the landscape and the urban. The box and frame design language takes a humbler approach to complement the landscape, allowing the development to grow into a living forest. The riparian nature of the development immediately stands out among the urban neighborhood, recreating the experience of a sanctuary landscape in the heart of the Serangoon estate.

The landscape concept is to offer a lifestyle that is to engage more with the nature. A living that is among the woods, celebrating the daily enjoyment together with the large range of native and exotic landscape. The development is more than a net for the buyers. It’s also a platform for the kids to grow up with the nature, a place that they call home.
