Unique Selling Points

What’s nice about this Flamingo Valley condo.

Freehold. It is on a freehold (estate in fee simple) title, which is the best tenure to have, and getting harder to find as all new government land sales are only for 99 years leasehold.

As noted in the Business Times, 04 December 2009 edition: “A key benefit of owning freehold real estate is that the land value does not generally depreciate in the long term. Although all properties are subject to market fluctuations, the price of freehold land tends to be more stable than that of leasehold land over time.”
Location. Flamingo Valley Condo is located in district 15, on the fringe of the established private residential enclave of Opera Estate, known as the Holland Village of the East, with much of the same laid back charm.
Setting. Situated in the heart of Siglap estate, which looks to be a quiet and peaceful environment. This area has got probably the largest variety of mouth-watering foods around as well as the bonus of East Coast Park.
Accessibility. Flamingo Valley is pretty conveniently located – along Siglap Road off East Coast Road, which enjoys easy accessibility via the ECP and PIE to the Central Business District and the activities of Marina Bay. Eastwards, it’s a quick drive to East Coast Park and the airport. A leisurely walk brings you to Siglap Shopping Centre and the eateries around.
Layout & Design. The units are beautifully well designed, arguably the most functional of all the recent condo launches, with little wastage and no odd corners. The rooms are decently sized too, big enough to turn around without knocking into yourself.
Reputable developer. FCL is known for high quality developments like Martin Place Residences and St Thomas Suites.
Investment Potential. Solid scope for capital appreciation given its freehold estate and very nice location.

Feature Highlight

The dual key units are good investments. It means you actually own two units in one, each with its own entrance and kitchen. Like the very popular home + income properties overseas, where you don’t have to move out to rent out.

You could also rent out both units individually or live in it as one large apartment. Great flexibility for catering to different market conditions. Dual key units tend to sell quickly and there are only 36 of them here. Here’s a floor plan of one of these units.
