If one know the mkt well and ytl well, then he ll know it is impossible. Ytl normall price at or slightly lower mkt price. Sentul no way near 800psf yet. It is very dangerous to use non comparable items for relative comparison...by using high pricing of verve etc as benchmark to say 700 or 800psf is worth it in sentul is a dangerous thinking. Msian must be more rational to buy prop...not just bbb especially after attending seminars by so called guru.

I went to the site recently with a contractor to view the units. I'm quite disappointed by the end lot design. The wall at the side of the extra land, is actually the same side as the staircase going up.
There are few small window openings on the wall and one of them actually "cut thru" by the staircase, just like wrongly design (half window above staircase and half below)

There is no extra glass panel / glass sliding door on this side of the wall which could have helped lighting up the hall. Totally defeats the purpose of having end lot / corner lot!!!  doh.gif

The end lot unit looks as dark as any other intermediate units. 1st floor hallway is dark but still bearable. But the middle room is the worse. The only light source is from a small window facing internal air well. Give you a wrong feeling of a room in those apartment having air well window.....

It will be totally different if the room wall is at the same side of the extra land, then it can have more windows to allow better lighting.

This is a common sense for having an end lot / corner lot, right? Is this overlooked by architect?

I guess this could be done purposely to prevent owner hack down the wall for extension / add more window glass.
With the staircase on this wall, it is impossible for you to make any extension even if YTL allows it (of course they won't).

So it makes the only benefit of having end lot / corner lot is the extra land itself......plus a few small windows on the staircase side.  sad.gif

Is it worth to pay extra 200k or even 300k just for extra 10ft land without benefit from the light?

Also, it seems that the front hall (dining) is larger than the living hall at the back......feel a bit of wrongly design again.
The wet kitchen is miserable. Very dark and constrained by a small corridor outside maid's room and toilet.
I believe many owners will tear down the maid's room to make the kitchen bigger. But if you have a maid, then your choice is limited.

I like the front and back room at 1st floor though. Very good lighting. Lighting condition is the same for intermediate unit.
Master room at top floor is connected to study room and a balcony facade. Which looks nice but kind of wasted coz entire floor is fully occupied by one room.

One negative point is, there isn't a Guess Room at Ground Floor. If you have old folks with knee problem, they won't like this house.
Old folks usually also don't like kitchen at the centre of the house.  shakehead.gif
Moreover the dining hall + dry kitchen is facing the front gate......but those who like it won't mind.

Immediately after VP, write in to inform mgmt office abt the design fault issues to allow all end lot to modify it in the same way. Most of the time it ll be allowed and the modified design ll b the standard for future reference.
