To book a show flat viewing and learn more about the development's unit and floor plans, potential buyers can contact The Continuum's official development team or listed agents.The Continuum's site layout is truly one of a kind; it is by far the only condominium in Singapore that spans across 2 separate plots of land joined by a bridge with a through road running through. With ample space on a combined land plot of 269,995 square feet, The Continuum houses 816 units across 6 storey blocks. This translates to units being comfortably spaced apart so residents get to enjoy enhanced privacy. Those residing in blocks on the northwest of the development will enjoy unobstructed views of the CBD and Singapore Sports Hub while those residing in blocks on the southeast get treated to views of the Joo Chiat and Telok Kurau low-rise residential enclaves. Furthermore, residential towers at The Continuum are all north-south facing to avoid direct heat from the afternoon sun and to maximise natural ventilation across all units.Strategically located on in the Geylang-Marine Parade estate along the city fringe, residents get to enjoy a good mix of good food, amenities, and rich cultural heritage. The completion of the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL) by 2023, will unlock new MRT stations at Katong Park, Tanjong Katong, Marine Parade, and Marine Terrace. This will significantly increase the connectivity of the area which would in turn boost capital appreciation of properties in the area with the enhanced accessibility.Additionally, the nearby Paya Lebar Central precinct is also one of the nine precincts shortlisted for the Urban Redevelopment Authority's pilot Business Improvement District (BID) programme. With upcoming new commercial developments to revitalise the city and increase employment opportunities in the area, The Continuum residents can look forward to more employment opportunities closer to home. Moreover, the planned relocation of Paya Lebar Airbase in the 2030s will free up a land area five times of Toa Payoh to make way for a commercial hub with jobs and amenities. In time to come, this can also further drive-up rental demands for housing in nearby neighbourhoods so homeowners can enjoy increased rental yields.Hoi Hup Sunway was awarded the Government Land Sales tender of The Continuum at Thiam Siew Avenue with its bid of $815 million, which works out to $1,440 per sq ft per plot ratio (psf ppr). As one of the most sought-after residential areas in Singapore, D15 has seen several new project launches such as Tembusu Grand and Grand Dunman this year.It has been close to two decades since the launch of a new condominium on a large freehold plot of land in Katong. The Continuum is thus worth considering for upgraders and owner-occupiers looking to preserve a legacy to pass down to future generations in land scarce Singapore. Adding on to the appeal of the project, large-scale developments such as The Continuum have great potential to fetch higher selling prices in the secondary market as opposed to smaller developments. In the long term, this would help to boost demand for housing in surrounding residential areas such as The Continuum which would positively impact rental yields and reinforce price support for the development.
