Where is the balcony?
@KC
Haha…..there’s no balcony lah. Wihout a balcony which most people dont find useful, you can have a bigger internal space. The total gross floor area specified in S&P in Malaysia includes balcony, and any other external part of the unit that is accessible by the occupants, plus internal flor area.
To be honest, when i see the floor plan, i got shocked that the whole common corridor for one floor is all open. So if there is a fire in one of the unit on any floor, the whole common corridor will be fill with thick smoke, and consider so many units in one floor, and also very high rise, it is actually a safety hazard. They should at least put one fire door in the middle of the corroidor to separate it into half, at least can stop fire from spreading.
over high rise is good for developers but have ever gov think of the traffic?
road so narrow take alook at farlim or relau now.
if all 14 floor on all those area maybe still ok comparable to one building super high rise.
@biz
Traffic should be ok and the reason is :-
(1) Site clearance has already started for PORR, which runs from behind tesco to gurney drive. It should be ready by stages starting in 6 months time
(2) You may have 3000 new units here (tamarind + santorini), but 20% will be empty units waiting to be flipped, 40% occupied by retired empty nesters with 1 or 2 occupants max per unit (owner occupier + MM2H tenants), while the rest occupied by singles or small families.
@MDzul
You raised a very valid concern. A responsible developer should look carefully into that before tragedy happens.
@MDzul
State authority should carry the same responsibility too.
Anyone have a unit @ Tower B ?
Damm, sub-sales selling RM425K – Rm450K.
Where to get 300k unit ? The brokers open price suka suka saja
@Kelvin
300k??? I think finished liao lor, now only available developer left over open market units priced around ~RM430k (also selling out fast). Later when it comes to sub-sale, I think at least RM530k (if not higher). Even RM530k, where to find anything as good and as cheap in this area??
The rent unit as per posted in mudah from agent is refering to black c, unfurnished unit to be rented out to max 10 Bangla for rm1300/month.
Is there a control for this??!! Omg

@Kang
Hahaha!!!…..don’t worry, you can make an official complain to COB when it happens, COB will issue a letter to owner to stop it, after which all access cards for that unit can be barred. This is wihin he power of COB because it is strata titled (as oppose to some landed houses which are used as bangla dormitories for which is beyond the power of COB as it is not strata titled). There is already a precedent set at Tamarind, in which case the owner was served the notice by COB to vacate 8 banglas working for KP staying in a unit facing a very noisy car park exhaust fan.
What’s the allocation of affordable and public units in all the three towers? 50%-50%?
It’s interesting you asked that question. Isn’t the ratio 30:70 (30 public & 70 affordable) according to state gov guideline? 😉
Any 300k-350k owners here??
Yes, I bought a bare basic unit, only 300k, very very good buy. Really looking forwrd to moving in after renovation. Yeah!!
RM300k? 80 years left for leasehold will be hard to resell in future. No value unless for own stay.
Not sure about future value, but my aunt told me someone offered her 500k for her open public unit last week, seaview lah her unit
I was offered seaview unit at premium corner for RM499k, but I turn down it after was told 80 years left now. Banks refused to lend for the type.
You were offered seaview unit at RM499k??? Private seller? Or from developer?
From developer, the agent.
Would you kindly give me the agent’s contact, we are looking for another unit actually.
Vivien, I have tried to post the agent detail but blocked by this admin.
My aunt just checked with site sales office, it seems there’s no more seaview corner units being sold under 500k, they cost now 520k-560k. Only a few units of blkB unit 16 (problem is the living room shares the same wall wih the elevator shaft for the whole stack of BlkB unit16) left for under 500k.
@vivien
Hi Vivien, I also one of I-santorini owner. Do you wanna join our group? If yes pls send me your contact number.
My visit there dated on 21/9. I didn’t expect the seaview unit sold out so quickly after I decided not to buy it.
Anyone have any idea when will get the key for tower B?
By right, the flyover beside tesco will have to be completed first before blk A+B CCC, but while they are working round the clock clearing the trees and doing all the land survey now, it doesnt look like they can complete the flyover within 2 months, which is the ori targetted date for CCC.
Any owner willing to share their viewpoint and a few snapshots of their unit? Appreciate it!
