Many of my clients avoid this location...
As many clients told me WHY?:-
1. The biggest turn-off is the Close proximity to Tengah Airbase. In addition, Paya Lebar air-base will close and will be relocated there also.
1.1. This is already an unfavourable: No, No and No to deter many .. from buying at this "ULU, ulu" location...
2. No good schools.. What school? The nearest schools are Princess Elizabeth Primary School and Bukit Batok Secondary School ..hmm Eden School...
3. Virtually it's neighbouring HDB blocks like HDB West Edge, West Plains, West Ridges and West Rocks to name a few are also under construction. Thus no existing within walking distance facilities or market.)
4. Most likely those who have bought a unit go for value and price: first time home buyers or Bukit Batok upgraders.
5. Ultimately, any part of Singapore is never too far away. And new estates ultimately become just like any other mature estates in a few years time.
