Singapore Project (I) - Water Front Living

If you ask 10 people, 9 would tell you that they would like their house facing the sea (er....until the tsunami struck recently). This Caribbean At Keppel Bay project in Singapore is one that we can only dream of in Malaysia (well, first of all, there isn't a sea near KL):-
  1. Only 10 minutes drive to Raffles Place, the financial district
  2. Fronting the sea and all units have sea view
  3. Sit 'north' and face 'south' - the chinese believe that a good house must face the south
  4. Master plan project with marina water front living (but I dun know whether you would get sea sick by simply staying there though)


If you take a look at the master plan below..(bloody hell, I dun know how to post 2 pictures into the same blog and it took me nearly 20 min but to no avail %#%&%*$*#*#), all units are facing the sea and fronting the private water way...isn't that cool? The selling point is the sea...so the architect did everything they could to maximise that.

I also like a couple of other features:-
  • You can log on to your smart home system and monitor your kids' activities - there are cameras every where in the project (monitor kids my foot, it is for checking out bikini girls....)
  • Smart home system to pay all your bills......and book amenities (this is what I call smart home mannnnn)
  • Private lift to your units (ahem, imagine you come back from a fine dine with your partner, then you two can make out make out in the lift, tearing off her bra...then ....tiu lor, this blog is getting more and more errotic...)
  • More than 40 different types of floor plan for all 900 units. Ok, a project in malaysia will typically have say 4 different floor plans (ie. Type A, Type B, Type C and Type D ler...), this one, you need to use NUMBER not ABC (you can buy Toto)

This is true lifestyle mannnn (I am telling Binjai people in KL)

What is dissapointing is that this site is a historic site, one the the first docks in singapore and named after a bastard...hmm...I guess it has to be Keppel...if they could keep some of the shipyard or ships and turn them into the club house etc, that would be very good la...

Selling at S$800 psf (high end but not luxury) and this is indeed a little pricy for a 99 year lease project. But what the heck, lifestyle is the way to go man....

Don't you wish that you are rich enough to live in Singapore?

hi.. i'm from singapore and i agree with you that the caribbean at keppel bay is indeed a dream waterfront-living home for many! there are seacanals stretching in between the blocks and bridges across them. they also have yatchs for you to sail out to sea. my parents are going to view that place again this friday and i'm really excited! i hope my dream of living there will come true.
