Hi Zac's Mum. You can consider Normanton Park. It is going to be launched in January 2021 (preview is 2 January 2021). Right behind Normanton Park is Kent Ridge Park so you'll get fresh air all year round and you can exercise there. It is like living next to Botanic Garden but at a fraction of the cost. Normanton Park also has a swimming pool that is 500m long! Maybe this weekend you would like to visit Kent Ridge Park to see whether you would like to exercise there when you retire?
Hi all, for my next property (hopefully to retire in), I wish to buy one near a PCN (park connector network) so that we can cycle for exercise. Any suggested condo developments (existing ones)?
Had a very nice ride from Satay by the Bay to Marina Bay Sands/Esplanade this morning. Wish we can do this daily instead of just turning into couch potatoes.
Alternatively, any condos with huge internal jogging track or cycling path as part of their facilities, also keen to consider.
Previously considered Pebble Bay area...but open to others.[/quote]
It is near NUS, NUH, Science Park, Metropolis, Biopolis, Fusionopolis, UWC (Dover Campus) and MediaCorp so you will have a huge pool of potential tenants if you want to rent out your unit before you retire there.
TOP is estimated Q2 2023.
You can pm me if you are interested. Thank you. -
May I ask how much psf Normanton Park will be?

A historical first, we have heard of babies born in taxis while on the way to hospitals but have not heard of babies born inside MRT cabins!
Yes Novena is good. Good for family with kids and when old too.MrsKiasu\" post_id=\"2008557\" time=\"1608472518\" user_id=\"43981:

Last time a good friend said she would like to stay near hospital too, cos she is afraid, in case of emergency, her ambulance got stuck in jam during peak hour. Lol.
Staying in Novena is not bad, kids have enrichment centres at United Square, old folks have Mt E/TTSH nearby and there are 3 major shopping malls/MRT.
We passed by KKH and I saw some constructions nearby not sure if it is mrt or what..so joked with dd, if near mrt better take mrt to hospital give birth..wait jam on road need give birth in vehicle.
[/quote]See can get free mrt rides for life

I don't mind looking after my grandkids but good having the own private space.. Don't think we have much problems staying with own kids but with additional member(s) not sure already hor.. we can dont meddle but if see our kids not fairly treated, dunno what will happen lor..
In theory yes lah. But there are projects out there, where security guards are “sleeping” and many smaller scale projects (lap pool/gym but no tennis court) where all that you need is an access card to enter, no physical guard.
Am thinking, if my kids stay at the 2bedder condo next door and during the day, we retirees staying at HDB next door, can just walk over for a swim or use gym and also cook dinner for them/look after grandkids, it’s like win-win situation. Not staying under same roof, both sides still have some personal space also. -

Having own space is important. Next block or estate close by is ideal.
