Needs TLC
We've rented for 18 months. Love the layout and space for 2 in our 3 bed unit. Peaceful on the amber road facing side. Great pool. Super location for bus and east coast f&b and shopping. Proximity to park. But major light pollution from the condo opposite from all the exposed stairwell lights. The management/owners don't seem to be investing in upkeep. Common areas like lobbies on each floor look tatty- it all needs a major repaint. Condo name has letters fallen off and not replaced, same for some of the unit names. Water features need some attention. Ground floor fire exit door was left hanging dangerously off a hinge obstructing an exit for 10 months, not fixed due to a disagreement with developer. Now the door has gone leaving just the broken frame. Part of a wall at the entrance is still broken where a taxi drove in to it a couple of months ago. ' My paper' daily deliveries dumped outside condo door whether you read them or not or leave them there makes me question security. Family centered so pool area is busy and noisy from 4-6pm. -

Esta
Pretty good and squarish layouts but interior finishings are average. The towers are very close to each others, feels crowded and many units have not much of a view. Not very convenient, especially if you don't have a car. Overall "ok" but does not feel "prime" -

enter outside??
saw the 3 bedroom. first thing that got me was that the entrance opens into the balcony. found that a bit weird and unnerving. like one of those twilight zone scenes where you open the door into outer space. practically though, the door will undergo more wear and tear as it is exposed to the environmental effects. noticed the wood was a bit bumpy already. balcony also placed at an un-optimal position. at the side of the house instead of the front. so the width instead of the length faces the outside. otherwise space is quite good. bright. pool is big and to the point. but won't buy it at those asked prices. -

Nice and Nothing is wrong
I am writing in response to Jak's remarks. I have been staying in this estate for the past 1 year. The car park is always full of parking lot for all, as not all the residents owns a car. I suppose it is only 60% used. The facility is properly established for all to use. I swims almost every evening at 8pm, without having any problem to share the pool with others. The Esta is a modern estate which the residents comprises of local and foreigners. I do not find any distinction from HDB upgraders or others among the local. The neighbourhood is friendly and warming. Everybody share a good estate to live in. I hope Jak will write something more objectively and truthful about the estate, than dishonest remarks. I suggest those who are interested to live in this estate to come by yourselves during the evening time esp weekend. -

Nice & nothing is wrong
I have a different school of thought from User Jak. On the contrary, i find: ~ the unit layout squarish & efficient, ~good size bedrooms where even king size bed is alright for the common rooms, ~ not over-sized balcony that cost so much in psf yet yield very little, ~ all units facing NS ~ good place for family living with full condo facilities and a big Olympic length pool, ~ 1 unit entitled for 1 car park lot with some excess lots for guests, ~Most units are 3 bedders, naturally attracting families or those that prefer bigger size units instead of Mickey Mouse studio units. So there will be kids, maids, etc seen in the pool/ common area, ~ Convenient with amenities within 10min walking distance, Parkway Parade Shopping Centre, East Coast Park & Beach, Big Splash, Katong Eateries, etc. ~ Mins drive away from Marina Bay, Raffles Place, Suntec City, Changi Airport with good public transport available. ~ Walking distance to Local & International Schools for kids studying there -

Nice but something is wrong?
nice development...the usual inefficient layout. good for families but as a estate, it is noisy with many kids. heavy utilization of facilities. very packed carpark; looks like the type where selfish singaporeans will call relatives over for the weekend to use the pool....very surprising to me, but looks very HDB upgrader style....not my kind of home. -
