Ideal Home for Expatriates
I was once an expatriate in Singapore for over twelve years and have recently moved back to USA owing to my family commitment. I had stayed in a few condominiums before and fully understand the sentiments of expatriates having to move from place to place to hunt for the right place to stay in a foreign country. I would like to share my experiences here as I had been through all those hassles. I had stayed in Hill View (Upper Bukit Timah), Bukit Bataok and Yishun, and all of which I decided to change after a single two years contract primarily because these condominiums were either way too pricey or badly maintained. Over the past six years or so, I had been staying at Regent Grove as I simply loved its serenity and convenience. It is located only within 5min walk from Yew Tee MRT with easy access to supermarket, wet market, convenience store, etc. That was music to my ears as I love to cook especially over the weekends. I had been renting the same unit at Block 52 at the highest level among the few blocks at Regent Grove. My living room was facing the pool with the other rooms on the side overseeing the side where the park is. I had unblocked views and the place is indeed very airy and windy. The facilities (e.g. gym, swimming pools, etc) are very well maintained and being an avid sports person who frequents the gym and pool often this was really awesome. If you are looking for a place to stay, Regent Grove is an ideal choice. It would still be my first choice condominium should I have another opportunity to work in Singapore again. -

Ideal home for buyers and tenants
Regent Grove is a great place for living in Yew Tee/CCK area and I would regard it as the best among the rest. As it is located within a few minutes walking distance from Yew Tee MRT station, it is so much nearer to amenities such as Yew Tee Point shopping mall, wet market, etc as compared to other condominiums like Yew Mei Green, Quintet and Windermere. It does not have the high noise level you would experience with Yew Tee Residences of which is located directly above Yew Tee Point shopping mall and just next to the MRT track. I like the serenity and quietness of the surrounding environment at Regent Grove, and the facilities have been pretty well maintained (unlike what were posted earlier). The units at Tower B and B1 are especially superb with unblocked views (and very windy) and close proximity to the club house. It is a great buy for me and I would recommend you take a closer look at it if you are looking around for a unit in this area, be it for living or investment purpose. Cheers! -

Good Living, convenient location
Regent Grove is a gem with very good location situated near mrt(5 mins walk) but not so near that it is noisy. It is walking distance to shopping centre, food courts. For the units I've seen, most of the units are well maintained and good condtion. The facilities are not bad which inlcude a enclosed room with hot spa pool. I would strong recommended for family and those who want convenience.. -

Worst possible maintainance
Very poor condo management and maintainance. Cockroaches and ants all over even in the swimming pool. Very poor security. Tennis court being charged unfairly. BBQ pits are too expensive. Worst possible condo to stay in Singapore -

Property Management
Condo management is very poor. Rules for tennis court usage is very unfair for residents. In addition to maintenance fees ( which is same amount as other condos), you have to pay S$8 per hour for usage of tennis court. Moreover, each flat can book maximum 3 hours per week. Although courts are free (idle),you can not use the court after you played 3 hours in a week. Although you bought that private property with more than 1 million, you will not feel that you own it because condo management established unreasonable rules. No action was taken even you suggest or complain. Due to poor management team, security personnel also can not work for more than one month. Most of the time, you will see new security every week. -

Great place
Hi, Regent Grove is a great place, it is very near Yew tee Mrt station(less than 5 min walk) and facilites abound. Opposite Regent grove are also a wet market, 4 foodcourts, NTUC, POSB banks, shops etc...where eating out or buying food from wetmarket to cook at home is not problem. It is also near the park connector where one can jog or ccycle. The place is very serene, with a centre waterfall and the gym is located at 2nd floor overseeing the swiming pool. It also has suana, steam room, spa pool reading room etc...A nice and convenient to stay. -

Good Living
We can only buy private housing, and viewed all from Warren, Yew Tee Residences to Quintet. Althou' Warren TOP 2004, it looks old and badly maintain, exterior walls are falling apart. YTR is new, but too small a development for any landscape and environment. After so many viewing, regent grove is near to all thing in Yew Tee (less than 5mins walk) not very much different from YTR, while it is big enough for some landscape and environment (like warren and unlike YTR). regent grove does not have too many units which to give me a private living environment (unlike yew mei green). And the management here has done a good job to keep it well maintain. Take a look yourself at warren and regent grove and you will find the difference instantly. 2 Bed Rooms unit are square, large master bedroom (can fit in a kind plus another single bed!) and spacious full windows living room. I agree that interior finishing is not exactly good from the developer, however, a renovation will fix that easily. Happy staying at regent grove now for 7 months now. -

poor construction quality and congested
Quality of finishing and materials used are very very poor, and will result in a lot of wear and tear... also kitchens are toooo small and cramped, and dark with hardly any provision for natural light and there is just single light, so is very dark... Most of the apartments have noon sun, and that really makes the house very hot. Also, the waterfall in swimming pool is very noisy.. you have to keep your windows closed to keep noise out up till about 7-8th floor. Kid's playground is very small and congested, especially if there is a barberque... it is impossible for residents to even think about going through that way. Quite unsuitable for people with kids. No function room and very congested facilities. Also, car parking is far from block, so you have to drop off and park. Advantages are: close to mrt and good shopping facilities. Close to schools. -

Regent Grove
Regent grove is the "most value for money" condo available in the cck area, in terms of amenities and the proximity to Yew Tee mrt. Try looking at condos at other nearby mrts and you will realise that it is a gem waiting to be un-covered! -
