Thanks for sharing bro. Not sure whether approval had been archived or still being on hold. If this flyover will connect straight to DPC (for future DUKE2 access) & also turn towards LDP toll, it is the best!

Agree, I'm still scratching my head on how to design the kitchen area. Any idea? 14xx unit's kitchen area layout is the best.

Yalo yalo... I have the exact some thought leh... While type D has bigger space, the layout makes it seems the intermediate units are better la...

DF is basically for family judging from the size and absolute price, and those who likes to live next to the natural forest.

The oversupply of highrises may apply on certain area such as Mont Kiara, or cyberjaya. PJ/ Dsara do not have many new launches of late.

Ya lo type A has all 3 rooms overlooking the forest for pool view units while type D only the master bedroom

Only thing is the big bathroom with the bath tub, if u are a fan of that

I have the same opinion as well.

And in addition to that, it is a freehold property.

Furthermore, completing at end 2015 or early 2016 would be the perfect timing.

I tend to differ in my opinion.

If you check carefully, type D has got the widest and grandest living area(~19ft) while the other units are 5 ft smaller.

This means that you will have more rooms to play with when designing the center piece of the house.

You will see the different when you place the furniture in the living and dining area.

If you want, you could build back the 5 ft area(to form kitchen) which will bring back your dining area to the 14ft width like other units.

You may goto the link below to compare the different layouts.

Please also note that type D gas bigger bedroom 1 and longer balcony

And for the fact that all type D are corner unit, the views are multiple and not limited to only the pool view.

and also type A has got redundant corridor area(although you could place some sort of entry table to decorate that
place.)

type B and C, there are also redundant areas just next to the kitchen.

Given the second chance, I still choose Type D

When it comes to design preference, to each his own la

If I would like to request for the developer to make adjustments to the fittings in the kitchen area during construction period, does anyone know how I can do that. I understand that some developers have provisions for such adjustments with the only condition being that you pay for the adjustments, which I think is fair.

Does anyone know how I can do the same for Foresta?

Bro, of course cannot compare the size where type D is 200 sf more and RM100k more costly

My point was all 3 bedrooms of type A pool facing units have the direct forest view vs only master room for type D

Noted. Type D balcony(depending on which block).

For my unit, balcony facing forest/pool, master bedroom facing forest pool & BSD, second bed room facing bandar sri damansara, 1st bed room facing opposite block.

I actually prefer this combination of views.

Of course it is personal preference. You get to enjoy all views.

Don't you feel a bit ark ward for the location of the bathtub in the middle of master bathroom? it will be better design if they place it horizontal along side the windows which give ample space area to the whole bathroom while enjoying the nice view outside with bubble bath, don't you agree?

I trust most 1st impression include me when going into Type D showroom, is a WOW so spacious nothing like condo but landed house. Type D design implementation is called the industrial minimalist concept, where open space achievement is paramount...thats why the wet and dry kitchen combines in a open concept. This are young and modern trend living preference and taste. With that you will find the entire interior is spacious and tugged in neatly in a corner allowing ample moving space with careful placing of furnitures that flows with the concept. Type D layout is design mend for that concept but if those prefer the conventional segregated wet kitchen from dining is still achievable but need to compromise on the spacious feel.....

When comes to alteration of toilets layout when it is H/O...it will cost a bomb When you start hacking away walls or tiles...the entire floor area will need to re-do the water proofing again with all existing tiles to be removed and re-install if used back or new selection. Piping relocation and etc....

Everyone will have the 1st impression that if the bathtub is next to the full window panel will b good...but bear in mind not all units are facing open areas view some will be noticeable from the other facing buildings & etc. That is why it is place in such a way just a few feet distance from window panels and also the optimal placing of amenities as per the squarish layout to achieve open space movements.
If you op to change it to a ready made jacuzzi set there will be a headrest for you to place your head up to view from that distance which is safe enough to be expose if there is facing buildings. Just like watching a TV from that distance and the view will be nicer rather than next to the window.
Neway i planned to install a concealed TV at the side of the vanity mirror wall and watch TV from the headrest is better. Through experience, after a while you will get fed up watching the outside view from there..

Just my 2 cents thots..

Cheers

If this changes can be done during the construction is the best. But i felt that the developer will not entertain much cos need to re-study and redesign the toilet layout and to get all relevant findings and feasibilities before can approve and also the cost of the new design layout.
Unless if there is quite a number of people in a group request for that with a common selection of the same layout changes...maybe there is a hope. That also include that the group should get a Test fit layout to submit to them on the request placing of amenities changes. This i trust the same with the wet kitchen cabinet area if there is intention to segregate the wet kitchen to enclosed with more practical use cabinets sets.
I will be doing some test fit soon on my Type D layout for the best way to create the kitchen area and island and dining set-up. If there is other Type D owner who interested to have the said exercise where group request for the common kitchen area enclosed to the developer during construction. i don't mind sharing the layout if i can get the best way to do that segregated kitchen test fit layout for the group to make this happen.

Cheers

Same here...block D type D...balcony, master bedroom n bathroom full window panel facing west ( good for sun tanning or natural resources sauna in bathroom ). Another corner of M.bedroom is facing north along with bedroom 2 and bedroom 1 facing east to the opposite Type D units..Just short of another side view of south or we will have 360 deg view.....

Build your kitchen using glass wall. Classy,trendy, eat up less space compared to brick wall and easily removed in the future in you do not want it.

Yours is which block and what unit number?

Hi BDSM,

Yes, I would be interested to see what your proposed layout to the Type D kitchen is. Can you share it?

Anyway, just to let you DF forum-ers know, I contacted a Siti Fazlina from L&G regarding the possible changes to my kitchen cabinet layout for my unit. Was simply informed that they are unable to accede to my request without any explanation given.

I frankly don't understand their attitude towards their customers and why it would be impossible to make changes before the fittings are installed. I'm willing to bear the additional costs anyway. Disappointed.

Hi Jasonv,

Same here. I thought of changing my house layout (just changing of the toilet) and my unit is not even build yet. My sis who is an architect drew a few proposed layouts and I submitted to L&G. I was rejected outright without explantion given. And yes is Siti Fazlia.
