Choiced location!!
Been looking around for a freehold property around city fringe for a while. new developments in district 3 have become very pricey and has to compromise with the small bedroom size especially when compared to my hdb bedroom. Chance upon a unit at Anchorage and fell in love with a unit at blk D. Good location, windy and with good size bedrooms. D is sited on the 'hill top' with quiet & serenity around. It's definitely a reasonable and good buy for me in comparision to the very pricey and smaller units in the nearby new developments. I recomend a buy both for own occupation and investment at Anchorage!Was this review helpful? Report review -

Large units and excellent location
I have been staying at The Anchorage for over 6 months now. I like it so much I have decided to extend my stay here. The unit I am staying in is very spacious. There are great facilities, with very little advance booking required.T The location is excellent,, meters away from Anchore Point and Queens shopping center, Alexandra Village and all the amenities. There are a large number iof bus connections and the MRT is 10 minutes away.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Poor Construction Quality
A key problem with this development is the total lack of sound proofing between units. You will hear every footstep, every door being closed, furniture being scraped on the floor etc etc. So if there is a large family above it will simply never stop, from orning till night. In terms of sound isulation this is the worst place I have lived, thankfully though it is only temporary. The other issue is the facilities are extremely over used, the pool and gym often being very crowded. Not a place to recommend unfortunately.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Good location
Good location, except traffic outside the development is not as smooth especially during the 4-7pm period. very good amenities nearby, especially its attached to a mall. Overall condition of the development is above average. Security is tight which is good. However have seen some units internal condition are quite poor. Not sure is due to original developer's quality or renovation issues. Many units do not have great views, especially those low rise blocks. Units facing the mall is noise issues as the road is very busy.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Very convenient
Location is superb. Given the economic crisis, its probably easy to find tenants esp expats that desire the convenience of being close to town yet pay a lesser premium. Since it is 10 yrs old, the facade is of yester years. However the project is well maintained with a sizeable swimming pool and everything is a stroll away from AnchorPoint. Supermart, IKEA, food, MRT etc One of the few freehold projects around and believe it remains undervalued. Be careful of facing as this is a multi block project. The good blocks are E, D, H. Not too many are non-sun facing.Was this review helpful? Report review -

Excellent location and amenities
The Anchorage condominium is one of those not-so-new condos, but it is located at an excellent location in the Queenstown district. Being connected (and served) by the newly revamped shopping centre Anchorpoint, and within a overhead bridge proximity to IKEA, the condominium residents/tenants has access to a wide range of household amenities. Even local hawker fare is readily available just across the traffic junction at Alexander village. It is especially convenient as well, for people who work in the city area, as the Anchorage condo is a mere 10 min drive to reach downtown.Was this review helpful? Report review -
