Singapore, 3 June 2013 – City Developments Limited’s (CDL) latest residential project, the 616-unit Jewel @ Buangkok, debuted strongly over the weekend as buyers packed its show suites during its preview launch which started on Saturday, 1 June.
A total of 203 units out of 280 released were snapped up by eager buyers who were drawn to the development’s premium location of being situated just 3-minutes’ walk to Buangkok MRT station. Jewel @ Buangkok is also surrounded with abundant amenities, a comprehensive transport network and leisure options, which offer unparalleled convenience.
CDL Group General Manager Mr Chia Ngiang Hong said, “We are delighted with the healthy sales that Jewel @ Buangkok has garnered. Its top draw is arguably its affordable pricing for a development that is located near the MRT station. Furthermore, Jewel @ Buangkok’s proximity to the future Seletar Aerospace Park will bolster its rental and capital value appreciation potential, making this an even more attractive purchase.”
Jewel @ Buangkok features six 15 to 17-storey towers that house a selection of one to five-bedroom apartments, dual-key units as well as penthouses. Unit sizes start from 463 square feet (sq ft) for a 1 bedroom unit, to 1,701 sq ft for a 5 bedroom type. Penthouses start from 2,067 sq ft to 2,540 sq ft.

Foreigners and Permanent Residents from Malaysia, China, Indonesia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Australia, USA and Japan made up the remaining 16%. All unit types enjoyed good take up rates. In addition, two out of the five penthouses were also sold.
