Bad choice for me
I have recently moved into Shore Residences. I chose it because it was brand new. However to my dismay, the brand new unit I have rented has full of defects. The bathroom and kitchen have leaking issues from the ceiling. The laminates of my drawers came off too, cutting my fingers. Also, I feel the facilities are seriously undersized. The pool is often crowded with noisy kids, and the gym smells bad on a typical evening. This project is too cramp for my liking. I will not recommend it to those who are looking for a quiet and peaceful stay. I am looking to shift out when my 1 year lease has expired. -

Impressive project by FEO
Quite surprised by some of the negative review posted. Doubt the true intention of some of them. Personally, on the whole, I am delighted to have bought a unit and stay at the Shore. The interior provided by the FEO is excellent. The facilities e.g. pools, function rooms, gyms are great. Overall, a wonderful experience! -

Major defects. Stay at your own risk
This project just top but Toilet is leaking with smell of sh*t. oven not working , when the man came and unscrew to remove the oven, the operation manual is still on top of the oven which we have no way of know. It will most likely catch fire if the oven is used. They is no way you can take out the manual unless you unscrew and remove the oven . The water has taste soil. Every morning , we must boil the water to remove the taste. Washing machine water outlet is filled with sand . The first time we use the washing machine the whole kitchen was flooded. Stove burning rubber smell. When we use the stove there was burning rubber smell. Dangerous sand pool. 2 deep hole in the sand pool due to leaking water from pipe underneath, my son got injured when playing in the pool. It is very difficult to spot the 2deep hole. I can go on and on about this place. Stay here at your own risk. I am renting the place here and planning to move out. -

Inferior materials, huge defects, DONT BUY
This Condo TOP in February 2014. Three months have past and my unit defects are still not fully rectified. Unit have more than 60 defects and some are really ridiculous ones such as loose water faucet, holes in the walls and dented air con compressor fin. The unit was handed over to us in an appalling condition which we did not expect it to be the kind of standards Far East would deliver. Far East Customer Service Department is responsible for unit's defect rectification and they are super irresponsible, inefficient and unprofessional in handling my unit's issues. The management did not deliver promises which they have made verbally, worst still, they even dared to not deliver those promises they made via emails. The manager have made countless of empty promises to us such as failing to return calls , not giving email updates by the end of the week as promised by him. The occurrence of such unprofessional service attitude was not once or twice but many times! He even said that our unit defect rectification is taking a long time because there are many more units. So, is this manager implying that Far East is short-staffed? Why did they take on so many projects if they are short-staffed? Far East staffs are not sincere in rectifying our unit defects. We have talked to so many levels and NONE OF THEM ARE SINCERE. They kept us waiting for so long, I still do not know when Far East can hand the unit over to me despite waiting 3 months for the defects to be corrected. It was a terrible home buying experience with Far East. Because of this disappointing and shocking home buying experience, We will not consider Far East Homes ever again. -

stay here and you will regret it.
The shore residences just TOP since it is new, I tot it should be a nice place to stay. Boy was I wrong! After moving in, I find out that the washing machine could not be turned on, later I found out that the plug and water was not turn on. To make it worse, it could not be turn on,unless the washing machine was move out. Next the coffee machine was not working, called the servicing agent which came a few days after later.they had to change the front panel of the coffee machine. However, Aftet they left, I found the coffee brew was cold. Have to ask them to come back again to service. Next the hood cannot be used because it is not connect to the exhaust,need to inform the management about it. Next, the water in toilet does not flow out when the floor is wet. I tend to pond at one end but not the side when water is suppose to flow down. No way, they can fix it without hack the floor. Flooring, the wooden flooring has some deep scratches on it. Not that it is a serious matter but I did not expect it for a new condo. Noise level. Because it is at the junction. You can hear the bus accelerating loudly. Jaccuzi. It turn off automatically after 1 min. You then have to swim over and press the button again. Wardrobe suppose to be of high quality but the finishing of the wardrobe was really bad. Kitchen Cabinets. 2 of the stoppers already fell out. I have to fixed it myself. Water, the tap water has a soil taste. After boiling it, the water is better but still not 100% removed. I had previously stay in a 8year old condo and I don't have such problem. Not sure what are the reasons but I see a lot of empty units. Gym. only has 1 weights machine. 400 units in the shore residence and 1 weights machine. really have to queue up to do your weights workout. I just move in 1 week and there are so many problems already. really disappointed with this place. I wrote this review so that others will not be in the same situation as me. -

Fantastic
Just bought a 2 bedrooms unit at premium tower lately. What a wonderful project paying to a very fine detail. I personally like the very practical layout, fully utilization of internal space ( that's what buyer should pay for). Fantastic folding glass panels open up living hall space to balcony with full utilization, 50m lap pool just in front of me. Location, of course, is also no questionable at all. Future capital appreciation is great. High rental potential too!!!. -

Bringing the shore to the condo
Trust Far East to bring a new concept to the landscape of the condominium! This one is probably one of the first condos that bring in real sand to create its own shoreline. The two pools (one in front and the other at the back) means that the views will not be too bad either way. Location is amazing. -

Good Investment
Shore looks like a good investment as it has good facilities (150-mt beach pool and 50-mt lap pool are esp attractive). Comparing the rentals at surrounding One Amber & Cote'd Azur, the future investment for this development looks good too. Once the Eastern Region Line is announced, I think the prices will reach a new peak. Location is highely prefered with expats as it is mins drive to CBD and short walk to Parkway Parade (many of my colleagues stay in this area) Layouts are compact and neat with no baywindows (it is BIG relief!) I just bought a high floor unit and am very satisfied with the service of Far East sales person. I recommend this property for those who are looking at good rental yields in future or those who might just want to stay in this appealing development (like me) I dont care too much on the Leasehold sympton cos if I like it, I will buy it! And Far East being a BIG developer would do things to make residents happy too. Good Luck to all property hunters! Adam -

Good Deal
Upon confirmation of the DTL, I think the price will go up higher for this new development. Location is very important as its only minutes drive to CBD. When the market is good, lease hold is as good as free hold. The full condo facilities also very attractive. The only bad thing is this project will only TOP in 2015 which is quite far away. But who knows what will happen in 5yrs time. -
