Can anyone advise?

Am planning to buy a unit at floor 30, not much choice left...no balcony level 30 @.@

I wonder how many people replied here actually stayed in 30th floor with a balcony before. Most people would imagine the fantasied version of a 30th floor balcony. I have stayed in one in Sydney before and it was unusable. The wind is too fierce for it to have any use. And no, you would not want to stand on the balcony to enjoy the view. With the door securely locked, the view is much nicer and calmer. For me I think 20 something is the cut off point. No balcony above that. Or perhaps I am just too much of a coward to enjoy a balcony. Either way, you choose. smile.gif

Its easy, but might need MC approval la.

Get one with balcony. Install full height window at the balcony.

Dont like balcony, close the window, becomes part of the living room, a small office or library.

Like balcony, open the window, and viola...it is still balcony where by you can enjoy your views or breeze as whenever you like it.

bro, technically speaking, under the deeds of mutual covenants, you are not allowed to install anything that would change the external facade of the properties, which usually includes grills as well. Most of the high rise you have seen in Malaysia that owners actually modified are actually against the deed of mutual covenants that they have signed.
