I've just made my move to buy a unit on 21st floor, anyone bought one on the same floor? We could be neighbours! smile.gif

Pretty impressed with the developer as I know they always emphasize on quality, I trust them for the actual final works on the corridors, lifts and park.
Ameera SS2 are pretty impressive, are hotly sort after.

Info that I found about Windows on the Park
The land is actually part of a huge empty forest, still there's a lot of development to go. Would be awesome if they build a mall here. Most of BTHO area are owned by UDA, most of the projects are SemiD and Bungalows, so its gonna be an upper class place, pricing between 700K - 2-3mils.

There will be 20+ security cameras along the running path, security is pretty tight.
There might built a basketball court at the entrance(Where the show units are) if government approved it.
There is a hill next to it, that most probably wont be developed.
There will be an MRT 4km away,..all though its not within walking distance.
The buildings are earthquake proof (As it getting more common, heard many of my friends, their condo flooring tiles and wall cracks when it happens)

Thats all I have to share! Cheers!

What's the price range for the 16xx sqft units?
*
1680sqf should be between 820K++ - 960K++

What SDB offering is something unique in Cheras, comparing to altitude236, I would still prefer WOTP as the unit layout is something you can't find, long spacious space, designed like a landed unit. The huge balcony and the huge park is something can't find anywhere else in Cheras.

Although the location is a little deeper inside it has so much more potential compares to altitude236, there's still lands to be developed at the surrounding, MRT is 4K away, best of all it's in a quiet residential area, I guess it will be much more serene.


It's expensive, but 3 years later. All lower end condo will be more expensive than this. My opinion is based on my own stay, I can't be sure for investment wise.

Almost same price range as Foresta Damansara for the same size. For own stay, definitely no issue.
*
Foresta is on a hiltop, built on slopes, with overly crowded place. Once all the units are done, they will be 2,700 units.
They have more facilities there but their maintainance fee are 0.33 cents, and frankly I don't like the design, the more complicated the design, the sooner it will looks old, think of it in the next 5 years.

It's 0.25 cents, not 0.33. Btw, totally different area / market. I was just comparing the price point.
*
Just went to Foresta showroom. Their facilities looks good, but still it's on a hill, that seems like a drawback, it's not as spacious and a lot of staircases. The canopy looks cool, at the back of those blocks, but the path leads to a dead ends, it doesn't form a lap - (if you into running, you know what I mean, it sucks to turn back after you ran to a dead end and with those slopes,..it's not gonna be a good place to run).

The units are from 1400sqf to 1600sqf, with a typical square and L shapes layouts. Their windows are larger, looks better than what WOTP offers and Balcony fences are glasses made and pretty huge!. Balcony are quite alright although not as big as WOTP's, don't really like their balcony. The larger unit (1600sqf) offer Bathtub and have two basins in their master bedroom unit, but they don't offer built-in wardrobes, fridge and microwave..

Their units are actually cheaper than WOTP slightly, but overall concept, material quality and layouts, WOTP are definitely better and classier. Foresta are overly decorated, in my opinion. Look closely and study the surrounding area, Foresta park area is actually just on the left hillside and the back area from the entrance view. It isn't exactly built right 'in the park', it isn't exactly the same concept as WOTP. The pool, gym, most of the main facilities is on an man-made open center space, with not much of greenery.

Look at Five Stones, SS2.. It's really awesome just by looking at the exterior, it's all about quality and trust, thats where exactly where the money goes to I guess.

U can also view the video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=playe...d&v=LcYPJ201dLI

Btw, its the closest concept with Kinrara Rimba Residence and WOTP. Anyway, back to the main thread/topic.

How much is the maintanance fees for WOTP?
*
Its the same 0.25 cent, less facilities but bigger park space. The facilities will shared by 500+ units(WOTP) vs 900+ units residents(Foresta).

It's really something unique here SDB offering, but I think Cheras residents wouldn't appreciate such details and concepts, they always prioritize of space. RM800K most of them would rather go for Alam Damai Perdana SemiD or UDA properties.

I think thats the main reason, its not selling that well those 1600sqf and above units especially Penthouses.

On the opposite of the road (Carrefour side), most of the developments are by UDA, what about those development on WOTP side? Anyone have any idea? If you view from Google Map, there's a huge empty land, although the actual location are busy on development, when on the way to WOTP, will be able to see that.

Lol, yeah a little high on the price, frankly I think so too, but thats a 1680sft, pretty large space. I think those leftover units are 900K+..

WOTP is 540 units on 8.9 acres so per acre density is 60.7 units

I took the 53,274 sq meter for Phase 1 of Foresta (as per S&P) and that's convert to 13.2 acres. 928 units over 13.2 acres is 70.3 units.

Not sure is the above correct, if yes, the density for WOTP is lower by 10 units per acre...

WOTP has 4.2 acres of park on 8.9 acres of land so community space is 47%. Aragreens has 4.76 acres of community space on 7.5 acres of land and at 63% they claim to have the highest ratio of community space in the market.

I wonder does my computation above make sense??
*
Wow, aragreens is huge! 1.4km running path, thats sexy!
When is the completion date? Any how idea how much per unit for the size in between 1500 - 1800 sqft, if they have any?

I sent email to their management on this, and yet to received their reply...

I'm wondering Y they are selling more expensive with this small lot apartment and the price just can't be justified!!!
*
Bro relaxlah bro, this is SDB. I think part the high fee that we paying, is for the trust and quality they provides. Yes all bigger units usually have a lower psft. Be cool.
About the facilities, its not fair either as bigger units have to pay higher maintenance fee and sharing the same facilities, even only one guy staying alone, so thats how it is.

I bought a unit too, I think I'm lucky, because it's what I want.

Is all about the same for the purchase... Even the smaller unit are without free oven, refrigerator, kitchen cabinet, hood, cloth cabinet and bigger door.,.

Bigger seize come with cheaper psf and lots more furnitures....
*
Ah man...really? No furnitures at all? As I know 1680sqft, has kitchen cabinet wet and dry, oven, fridge, stove, hood and for the master bedroom, has shower head, mixer and wardrobes.

Then I advise you buy 1680sqft, thats what I bought and we could be neighbours,..lol

I think the 900sqft+ also won't be too badlah, you'll feel 'premium', should have no weird people staying here.

thats very cheap and reasonable only rm 0.245psft

0.25 psf maintenance fee. Is that consider cheap? I don;t know, seem like a standard for condo nowadays.

Actually I don't know why they set the playground, children pool (Away from the 50 metre pool) at Block C, I assume those smaller units are mostly young adults who has no kids, but good thing is, you and your kid can see each other as soon as coming in from the entrance.

I don't really bother as I do not have kids anyway, and setting the children pool away from the 50 metre one is actually a good thing, more quiet, no kids running around and maids chatting.

Anyone have any idea where exactly the BBQ area is?

at least i can use this new and premium condo project from my case reference, my apartment jmb is seeking revising the rate from current to no more than rm0.25 psft.

Btw, BBQ pit thing always subjective. everytime brochure says got BBQ pits, but come to VP and committee meeting, most tenants will ask for demolish of such due to nuisance from smoke, noise when partying and dirty surrounding
*
Ah thanks for sharing, I really have no experience staying in a condominium, but I heard about committees complaining about things at the time. It's not a good thing, in the end everyone has their own lifestyles. If removing of BBQ pit,...will only make people to find their own way doing it (Balcony). Hope they find a better spot on the corner somewhere empty space, surrounded by trees. As I being told, they might be planning to place it somewhere on that empty field near the pool between block A and B, is that a good idea?

BTW, peri peri, what do you do? I'm in design and advertising field. :-)

haha, talk about BBQ at balcony, happened at my apartment block too. those iranian tenant really dare do anything.

Anyway, we had shifted the BBQ pits to nearby hill park to avoid nuisance.

paiseh, im in small scale developer line
*
Lol, check out the attachment, I think WOTP has the similar balcony fences.

If they take away the BBQ spot, I'll do this and invite my neighbours upstairs for BBQ, so they get to enjoy too.

Bro, working with small or big scale developer line doesn't matter, as long as we do well at our job. smile.gif

Yes, u r rite... They said wanna forfeit just because they don't wan u ro cancel as most bank is not going to finance this block....

As this block C is quoted as medium low cost apartment categories, it definitely unable to get banker to finance... It just like u ask a bank financial u a Ferrari price but in fact u r just buying a kancil....

The only solution come to this is ro wait for AP and see any bank will do finance or else this block will be a death block haunted....

Good luck to those bought and hold block C...

My advise is negotiating with developer to get back 7500 at least as this is their problem of not getting any panel bank for this block...

Too bad for developer as use our money to fulfill their low cost of 30% on this project... If fact they could just to pay more to the authorities and wipe off this rule... But developer is unwilling....

My friends is going to cancel him booking for 3 units this weekend.. I see many more will cancel their booking these few days....
*
Damn sorry to hear about it, is that confirmed by SDB, they are having such issue? I think eventually they will solve it, yeah wait for approval first, if you managed to book a nice unit, you might be losing a great deal.

Go for Block A 1680sqft instead maybe?
