Anyone living in Changi/ Upper East Coast?
Anyone living in Changi/ Upper East Coast?
Hi,
I am a recent arrival to Singapore and will be working near Expo MRT soon. I am looking for a 2/ 2+1 bedroom condo around the Changi area (or Upper East Coast near MRT).
I have seen an apartment I liked at Changi Green (about 1,000 - 1,100 sq m) and have been quoted rental of $2.2K (partially furnished) or $2.4K.
Is this a reasonable range? I've also heard that the rates for a similar apartment at Changi Court (pretty much right next door) are only about $1.8K tops.
Any comments & suggestions would be much appreciated - many thanks in advance!

Its never walking distance in Singapore....coz of the rain or humidity ... either ways you will reach work soaked...

Thanks for the heads up!
Rich D, I have looked in Simei but unfortunately didn't really like the surrounds or any of the options that were available. I ended up getting a 2+1 for $2K fully furnished per month.
As for getting to work soaked...well hopefully my hours will mean I can beat the rain or the worst of the humidity! Either that or have to invest in a strong can of deodorant (amongst other things
)

Hi greta,
Can you tell me what condo building this is in?

I'm really interested in what kind of condo is going for $2k.
Thanks!

Hi stacey
we have a maid room in our condo (Tropical Spring in Simei). The surface area in the room is about 1.5 meters x 1.5 meters. So it is great if your maid is short.
There is a combined toilet/shower next to the room. But judging from the 'standing area' in this toilet/shower, they expected the maids to be quite petite...
They did not think I might want to hire an au pair from the Netherlands...
