Just be Clear & Practical with your Ideal Hom
Viewing at least 30 HDB units for the past 5 months, hoping the price would reduce but it keep increasing and a 5-room unit now can reach up to 480k even in Jurong area. So i was thinking why not take a look at the EC or condo in this area as i realise that with that kind of HDB price, i would rather top up about 30-40% more for a condo. I viewed more than 10 units of condo in Jurong for past one month. To my surprise, The Floravale is truly the one that attracts me! Why? 1. Quiet & peaceful, not too near MRT/interchange where it's always very noisy and polluted 2.. Price is reasonable & affordable 3. Full condo facilities & security (not available in HDB) 4. Walking distance to schools, community center, supermarkets, food courts, coffee shops, bakery, clinics, salon etc. 5. Free shuttle service to Boon Lay MRT/interchange from am to pm 6. Easy access to public transport linked to MRT/Interchange, offices/factories in the west & the city 7. Most units are spacious and well maintained 8. It's next to landed property with greenery and very near NTU Thus, with the budget that i have now, The Floravale is able to fulfill my requirements. It is ideal for practical people like me who is getting used to the West Zone. -

Not the best choice
Location location location. Staying in condo surrounded by HDB is not ideal, might as well stay in HDB then. Transport is really an issue. Visitors need to walk 5-7 minutes in order to reach the guard house if you take the public bus.... phew, not ideal and considering value for money. -

simply the best value for money
just bought 1 unit, 1249 sqft, 650k, so very happy. This project is right in the middle of landed houses, feel like staying in Bukit Timah. This project seats in 1 corner of Jurong west, near to NTU and River Valley Sec Sch and with the development of the new Jurong area, it is likely to be sitting in one of the best location to be in the furture. The Gek Poh shopping centre has food and everything thing we need for daily use, for serious shopping we can go to Jurong Point. SBS 181 just across the road operatres everyday to Jurong Point, including Sundays. The price has gone up by a fair bit, but with 500 psf and such great things, no other projects can come closed to it. -

not cost effective
Seen one unit last weekend and feel rather disappointed. This condo is basically middle in nowhere. It is the west most condo in Singapore, which means you can't find a condo that has a worse location in Singapore. The Gek Poh Shopping center nearby only looks nice from outside but if you walk in, you will find it is way too small if you want to do any serious shopping. It has a free shuttle bus to Jurong point which is just nice but it doesn't operate on Sunday. In other words, it is not there when you need it most. The condo is overpriced IMHO and with its current asking price you can easily find fully developed condos near Boon lay or Lakeside MRT which have better location and better schools if you seriously consider buying a condo in west. -

Simply love it!
This place is ideal for people who are looking for peacefulness yet easy accessibility to amenities, schools and the city in the west zone. It's equipped with full condo facilities and all kinds of pools kids and adults will surely enjoy. The interior is spacious with good finishing. The unit that I recently purchased is unblocked and facing the greenery. It is windy and bright. My family and I just simply love the place. -

Gem
Just bought an unit, this project is a hidden gem. 9 years old and everything still looks new, nothing reminds us that it is an EC, it feels more like a full condo. underground carpark, good squarish layout. big storeroom. The pools are just so great! Big pools, small pools, many many pools, water water everywhere, and they are so blue. Our kids don't like it, they simply LOVE IT! There are almost everything we need near by. Gek Poh shopping mall ( food and basic shopping) 5 mins walk away, Pioneer Pri Sch 5 mins walk without crossing any road, Westgrove Pri sch 15 mins walk away. In house bus to Jurong Pt, SBS 181 to Jurong Pt just across the road. SBS 185 to Jurong west st 52 at the same bus stop. PIE just 5 mins drive away. Best part is the address: Westwood Ave! -

Value for Money
I have just shifted here 5 mths ago,Initially I had a budget of 600k,including stamp duties etc.I have a big family and I needed space.I looked at most EC's in the West area, and found that many had high maintenance fees, area too small..or something else. But my first step into Floravale, blew me away.Upon entering, the waterfalls were so beautiful ,and the size of the pool was amazing.Very near to schools, supermarket,shuttle bus to Gek Poh.. I viewed 26 units here before finding the best that suits my budget and with an area of 1335 sq ft.Best of all the house was in move in cond.Now I am getting my brothers to buy a house here rather than to go for the 5 room HDB.And low maintenance fees also. A great value for money. -

Overall Feel
Personally I like the pool with blue tiles. Each unit is designed in a way that gives a spacious feel. However, in terms of transportation, it is not so convenient as it is not near to MRT station. -
