HDB’s August 2022 BTO Launch: Prices, Site Plans and Smart Home‑Hunting Tips
HDB’s latest Building‑To‑Order (BTO) push just hit the mark—August 2022 units are up for grabs, complete with price ranges and fresh site plans. And guess what? You can now peek inside the mystery and decide which properties are worth your hard-earned bucks.
What’s New?
- Price Info: SCF’s got a clear table—units start at SGD 140k, go up to SGD 220k with a sweet slice of 10% for those with a marroned light.
- Site Plans: Digital blueprints that show exactly how units sit on the plot, the shape of the block, and the layout of the public amenities.
- URA Master Plan: Gives you the big picture on where the neighborhoods will grow, public transport links, and school zones.
- Google Earth: Witness your future block from a satellite view—think of it as the “pretty photo” before the actual house.
How to Choose (or Skip) a Unit
When the pricing and schematics are laid out, you can spot the real gems—units that are close to an MRT station, own a good walk to a primary, or sit on the ground floor with high ceilings. The trick is to give the sub‑mature plots a quick glance. Those that are too “behind the curve” often need a lot of upgrading or face local government restriction. Better skip them.
Dialed Up Wisdom
- Check your budget first—saving a few hundred thousand trillions is tough.
- Scrutinize the distance to MRT and the total number of buses that will serve the block.
- Remember, future development plans can add or trim your property’s value.
Bottom line: with the price range and site plans in your toolkit, you’re armed to lift the curtain on the best BTO unit you can sage your future for. Happy house hunting!
Ang Mo Kio August 2022 BTO (Central Weave @ AMK)
Central Weave @ AMK BTO – Your Future Home Awaits
Units on the Market
- Two‑room Flexi (Type One): 40
- Two‑room Flexi (Type Two): 86
- Four‑room: 398
- Five‑room: 333
- 3Gen: 39
Building Overview
Five high‑rise blocks, each ranging from 21 to 32 storeys, promise a blend of spaciousness and skyline charm.
Key Dates
- Estimated waiting period: 5 years
- Projected completion: Q2 2028
Why This Location Rocks
Most apartments face north‑south, so nobody will be blasting the afternoon sun right at your window. That means you can enjoy a bit of shade, even during the sweltering hours.
And don’t sweat the neighbour factor. The units are set back 40‑50 metres from each other, giving you plenty of privacy without putting you at the edge of a crowded block.
Views Worth Your Money
If you crave a clear vista, head to the 20th or 21st floors in stacks 142, 186, 188, 170, 172, or 174. From there, you can spot the river‑like Lower Seletar Reservoir up north. The reason? The Grandeur 8 condo across the street clips the horizon at about 19 storeys, so you’ll have an unobstructed line of sight.
All in all…
Central Weave balances modern living, sensible orientation, and a touch of scenic grandeur – all while giving you enough space to feel at home.
Finding Your Dream Home in the Southside of the BTO
Struggling to pick a spot that fits your vibe? Here’s a quick rundown of the stacks that might just set the stage for your new life.
The Lower‑Risk Stacks
- Stacks 140, 138, 136, 134 – These south‑facing units are your golden ticket to sweeping views of Bishan‑Ang Mo Kio Park. If you snag a high‑floor flat here, the scenery will keep the city’s chaos at bay.
- If your ears are a bit picky, blocks 174, 176, 162, 164, 104, 106, 128, 130 might not be your cup of tea. They’re lunge‑in on the MRT track running straight along Ang Mo Kio Ave 8, so expect some train sounds to sneak into your morning coffee.
Make the Most of the Childcare Centre
- You’ll find the little ones’ playground on the first level of the multi‑storey car park (MSCP). If a preschool’s proximity matters, aim for Block 731C or 731A.
- Heads up: Block 731A is all about two‑room rental flats, so make sure that’s the plan before you lock your decision in.
Bottom Line
So if eye‑watering vistas and a calm-noise environment are what you’re chasing, stack 140, 138, 136, or 134 might be your sweet spot. Want a quick route to the little ones’ childcare centre? Stick to 731C or 731A. Pick wisely, and you’ll have a place that feels both lively and peaceful.
Bukit Merah Aug 2022 BTO
Alexandra Vale
Big News About Alexandra Vale BTO
Got 782 units on the menu from two towering blocks that stretch between 41‑to‑50 stories? That’s how many homes you’re looking at. Here’s the scoop on the layout, waiting times, and when you’ll finally get to brag about owning your slice of Singapore’s skyline.
What’s the Mix?
- 3‑room units: 182
- 4‑room units: 600
Blocks, Floors and the 5‑year‑plus Waiting Game
Two blocks, each 41 to 50 stories high, line up to deliver a “first‑come, first‑served” lifestyle. The estimated wait? Roughly five years and one month. Hang tight – the grand opening is slated for Q2 2028.
Orientation & Privacy—Take a Deep Breath!
Most flats face north‑south, which means the sun’s luxury is a given. The rare blocks 236 and 215 are exceptions; they don’t share the same scrolling view.
Worried about nosy neighbours peeking? Good news: this complex is built so that slides don’t face each other. No more porch voyeurism—just your own front‑door view (minus the house‑twin buzz).
Unblocked Views Are an Elite Affair
Fair warning—clarity comes at your price. To open that panoramic gate, you’ll likely need a unit on the higher floors.
Take the north side, for instance: Echelon pops up at the 43‑story peak, while Alex Residences climbs 40 stories high.
If you’re chasing that dreamy view of Chatsworth Park’s GCB area, consider a high‑floor spot in stacks 227, 231, 233, 207, 209, 211, or 213. These hubs will grant you a bird‑eye view under the sky (and leave you bragging rights that are citywide).
Summing It Up—Your Kids Will Love It
So, with 782 units, a clear block layout, and a fairly long wait, you’re investing in a fresh, future‑proof home in a tops‑tier location. Your next move is to pin down that high‑floor plot to keep the view—and the neighbors—at bay. Happy house hunting!
Finding the Perfect Spot in the South‑Facing Marvels
Hey house hunters! If you’re eyeing a sunny slice of the city, here’s the lowdown on the best and worst spots to check out. Grab a coffee, and let’s dive in.
High‑Floor Heaven
Want breathtaking views of the Southern Ridges? Aim for the top of the south‑facing stacks: 225, 223, 221, 239, 237, 205, 203, 201, 219, or 217. The higher you go, the better the panorama.
Whispers of Noise
These stacks run by the elevated MRT track and the MSCP, so the lower floors (2nd‑4th) can get a bit noisy:
- Stacks 205, 203, 201, 219, 217 – avoid the 2nd to 4th story.
- Head for 6th floor and above for a quieter stay.
They’re right next to the carpark and the MSCP—noise level: medium to high. If peace is your vibe, stick to loftier levels.
City Vibes and Pool Dreams
Stack 215 is your go‑to if you want a city view, plus a splash of the Delta Swimming Complex. Imagine sipping iced coffee while watching laps—pure bliss.
Convenience Central
Just like Central Weave @ AMK, block 109B offers two‑room rentals and a childcare centre right on the first floor. For families, it’s a dream: you can hop down the lift to the childcare hub whenever you need. Fun fact—future facilities on the 2nd floor could bring even more buzz, so if you’re leaning toward the lower floors, keep in mind early‑morning noon‑rush sounds.
Quick Checklist
- Best to buy: 6th floor and up on stacks 205, 203, 201, 219, 217.
- Avoid lower floors where the MRT and MSCP echo.
- Picture‑perfect: high floors on stacks 225, 223, 221, 239, 237 for ridge views.
- Family‑friendly: block 109B with childcare access.
So pick your floor, pick your stack, and let the city’s rhythm sync with yours!
Havelock Hillside
Havelock Hillside BTO – Your Future Home in the Making
Imagine turning your dream into a reality, one floor at a time. Below you’ll find the juicy details of the upcoming BTO that’s more exciting than your favourite take‑out menu.
Unit Breakdown
- Three‑room apartments: 171 cozy spaces ready for your everyday adventures.
- Four‑room apartments: 698 roomy spots where the fridge can actually fit in the kitchen (yes, that’s a thing).
Block Specs & Timeline
The development boasts two blocks, each soaring between 42 and 45 stories high.
Estimated waiting time: 5 years and 8 months — just enough time to binge‑watch a new series or finally learn how to do a proper “lawnmower” haircut.
Estimated completion date: Q4 2028. By then you could be tossing your house keys on a beach while sipping a cocktail—if you’re lucky.
Orientation Tips (Because Views Matter)
All units at Havelock Hillside BTO face north‑south, making crowding views a non‑issue—just like their neighbour, Alexandra Vale BTO.
Want a City View?
Grab a north‑facing unit on a high floor in stacks 613, 615, 591, 593, 595 or 597. You’ll glance across the skyline like it’s a postcard printed from a Bond Magazine.
Craving an Unblocked View?
Choose a high‑floor unit in the south‑facing stacks: 619, 617, 641, 639, 609, 607, 605, 603 or 601. There’s a good chance you’ll spot a splash of Sentosa in the distance.
Remember…
Every skyscraper has its perks. Whether you’re chasing the city lights or the tranquil glow of Sentosa sunsets, Havelock Hillside BTO’s lineup brings you a pocketful of views that’ll make you feel like you’re living on the edge of a dream. Happy house hunting!
Quick Guide to the Latest Development Twists
1. Where’s the View Going?
We spotted a free‑standing plot along Kampong Bahru that’s still waiting on its gross plot ratio. That means it might soon be a tall story, potentially snipping the skyline that’s currently enjoying our BTO.
2. MSCP‑Facing Stacks – A No‑Go Zone
Take a look at these stacks: 633, 611, 613, 615, 591, 593. They all face the MSCP, so if you’re eyeing a higher floor (2nd to 8th), steer clear. Those levels are practically a “no‑frills” spot.
3. Keep the Kids & Your Peace
The childcare centre sits on the 1st floor of Blk 98A. If your first‑floor units in 621, 619, 617 feel a bit too lively, consider looking higher. The noise might just turn your den into a full‑time playground.
Choa Chu Kang Aug 2022 BTO (Keat Hong Grange)
Coming Soon: Keat Hong Grange BTO Project
Ready to settle into a brand‑new home? Here’s the low‑down on the newest BTO launch that’s sure to grab your attention:
Unit Breakdown
- Two‑room Flexi (Type One): 38
- Two‑room Flexi (Type Two): 156
- Three‑room: 96
- Four‑room: 374
- Five‑room: 323
That’s a total of 987 units waiting for their future owners.
Building Layout
The complex is spread across five blocks, each boasting between 19 and 23 stories. It’s a tall, tidy structure that promises plenty of space for the whole family.
Waiting Game
Patience, dear reader: you’ll be on the waiting list for about 3 years and 7 months. But think of it as a countdown to the day you’ll finally pick up the keys.
Completion Countdown
Mark your calendar: the project is slated to finish in Q4 2026. That’s roughly a year and a half from now, assuming everything kicks off on schedule.
Orientation & Views
Like most BTO units in this launch, the flats at Keat Hong Grange enjoy a north‑south orientation. This means natural light does a nice big sweep across the living spaces.
Stack Sneak Peaks
- Blocks 824B: Stacks 486 & 488 – these two are the only units that actually face each other.
- Blocks 824A: Stacks 456, 476 & 474 – again, a rare glimpse of mirrored living.
Good news? They’re all located about 40 metres apart, ensuring plenty of privacy even when neighbors eye each other’s doorframes.
Wrap‑Up
So if you’re dreaming of a modern, spacious home with a bright orientation and a little space to spare from your neighbors, Keat Hong Grange might just be your sweet spot. Get ready to pick up those keys once the countdown hits Q4 2026 – otherwise you’ll be the one who laughs at the door while the residents unpack!
Choosing Your Sweet Spot at Blk 822A & 823A
Ever feel like a detective in a maze of concrete blocks? The stairways (aka “stacks”) at 822A and 823A give you the full Mysterious Stack Circuit Parade—but don’t worry, there’s a decent distance between the two barrios thanks to the helpful MSCP.
Why the Lower Floors Might Not Be Your Best Friend
The first few levels of the stacks (think 410, 408, 406, 404 vs. 452, 454, 436, 438) look over the MSCP. Picture your personal space getting a snoop from the parking lot—yikes!
Pro tip: Skip the ground‑level choices if you’re all about privacy. Jump up to the ninth floor or higher, and you’ll feel like you’re living on a cloud.
Trade‑Offs: An Unblocked View vs. Noisy Days
Want a panorama that tells you you’re actually outside the building? Stack numbers 480, 482, 484, 458, 460 are your go‑to spots—facing the upcoming school site. Alex the Alarm Clock might have a hard time keeping up because these units are no strangers to daytime noise. Think “cuckoo‑time every morning.”
South‑Facing Stack: Your Ticket to Bukit Batok Town Park
If you’re a park‑lover or in need of scenic mental breaks, check out 444, 442, 440. They’re higher up and face south, so you’ll snag views of Bukit Batok Town Park and the legendary Little Guilin—all without the city’s gritty backdrop.
Where the Childcare Centre Lives
Need to be close to the childcare centre? Blk 823A and 824A are top picks. You’ll be right next to the closest units—first and second floors of 823—so taps to the daycare are mere steps away.
- Infinity Tower: 9th floor and beyond—privacy level 5/5.
- Noise‑worthy Panorama: 480, 482, 484, 458, 460—sound‑proofing optional.
- Park‑Watcher View: 444, 442, 440—sunset included.
- Childcare Proximity: 823A & 824A—door to daycare and your day.
Make sure you weigh the trade‑offs: scenic views, quiet vibes, or proximity to the kids’ fun zone. The right stack, right floor, and right block can make living here feel less like a puzzle and more like a well-crafted story.
Jurong East Aug 2022 BTO (Jurong East Breeze)
Jurong East Breeze BTO: A Sneak Peek into Your Future Home
Units & Floor Plans
- Two‑room Flexi (Type One) – 62 units
- Two‑room Flexi (Type Two) – 161 units
- Three‑room – 87 units
- Four‑room – 252 units
Building Layout & Timeline
- Number of blocks: 2 (ranging from 22 to 38 storeys)
- Estimated waiting time: 5 years
- Projected completion: Q2 2028
Sunlight & Views
Most of the units at Jurong East Breeze enjoy a classic north‑south orientation. But if you’re lucky enough to snag a unit that’s angled a bit east or west, you’ll be looking toward a glorious afternoon sun – particularly those squarers labeled stacks 781, 755, 753, and 751 that are south‑west facing. Picture waking up to sun‑kissed blinds, whether you’re a sunrise lover or just want that warm glow to power your morning coffee!
On the flip side, the BTO sits amid a cluster of HDB blocks, so dream‑big for unblocked views. If you’re aiming for that panoramic skyline, you’ll need to go high – think 30+ storey lift‑er. Otherwise, you’ll be staring a little longer at your neighbours’ countertops.
Stack Dynamics
Some units even face each other. In block 291B, you’ve got stacks 779, 777, 775, 773, and 771, all lined up facing stacks 757, 759, 761, and 763 in block 291A. It’s almost like a polite block‑to‑block conversation. The good news? They’re still 40‑50 metres apart – so you’ll have the right amount of distance to enjoy a quiet balcony while being in good shock‑wave proximity to your future unit neighbour.
Final Thoughts
Whether you’re going for the classic two‑room or dreaming of that spacious four‑room suite, Jurong East Breeze is ready to offer a range of options. Keep an eye out for those pockets of afternoon light, and come prepared to negotiate your way to the perfect view – or, at the very least, the best‑ranked unit to start your next chapter in 2028!
Welcome to the Whimsical World of the BTO Block
Behind the Scenes: The Hidden High‑Def Soundtrack
Picture this: the Picture‑in‑Picture Explorer (PIE) and the Jurong Region Line (JRL) are chugging along the northern and eastern edges of the BTO block. Think of it as the neighborhood’s version of a Saturday drive‑in theatre—only this time the soundtrack is two loops of modern train tracks.
Soporous Sound Shielding
Good news for apartment dwellers who hate the hum of commuters: the McP’s (Medical Care Plaza?) and Blocks 292, 293, & 294 serve as your personal noise‑cancelling shield. These rooms are bustling with community amenities and, hopefully, everyone’s favorite snacks.
Sound‑Sensitive? Keep Your Distance
- Stacks 783, 785, 773, 771, 765, and 767 are the most likely to let you hear the bustling vehicle symphony. If your ears feel like concert microphones, steer clear.
- Stacks 783 and 785 face the McP’s, but the first seven floors are a bit ear‑candy. Want a quieter spot? Look for units starting from the eighth floor upward.
Facilities 101: No Childcare, But a Sweet Spot for Seniors
Surprise! This launch is the only BTO that has made the creative decision to skip the childcare centre. Instead, they’ve built an elderly care facility on the first floor of Block 294. Because respecting the golden years is part of the block’s charm.
Bottom Line
Choosing a unit in this BTO all hinges on what you want to hear (or not hear). If you’re noise‑averse, stay away from the bustling stack corners; if we’re all about family vibes, you’ll have to make a trade‑off. And for those who need a senior corner, Block 294 is the place to be.
Tampines Aug 2022 BTO (Sun Plaza Spring)
Sunny Side Up: Sun Plaza Spring 2025 BTO Scoop
Three blocks of charm, 11 stories of ambition, and a wait time that sure feels like a test of patience.
What’s in the box?
- 150 four‑room units – perfect for families or those who love extra closet space.
- 117 five‑room units – because sometimes you just need a room for your collection of vintage spoons.
Block Breakdown
The project is split into three blocks, each stacked up to 11 floors high. Imagine a skyscraper that’s been patiently waiting for its turn to brag about its skyline.
Timing, Timing!
They’ve slotted in three years of construction and anticipation. The forecast comes down to Q2 2026—so mark your calendars, folks!
Where the Sun Glooms
- Stacks 202 & 204 are the east‑facing winners, catching the first rays of dawn.
- Every other unit is a north‑south delight, promising balanced light all day long.
Site Snag Checker
When you glance at the grid, here’s what the planners have in mind:
- Stacks 238 & 212 are facing the MSCP—the 5‑story Main Street Commercial Plaza. Picture those lower floors (2nd to 6th) being a tad shadowed; best to skip them if you’re all about the sun.
- Stacks 226, 224, 242 & 240 in Block 400B align with stacks 244, 245, 248 & 250 in Block 400C. They’re only 30‑40 metres apart, so if you’re into tiny neighbor gossip, you’re in the right place.
So, grab your coffee, toast the “study” of layout, and maybe ask your future neighbors about the best coffee spots. The wait’s worth it—Sun Plaza Spring 2026 is coming, and it’s going to be sleek, sunny, and oh‑so neat!
Got a Crush on the Tampines Eco Green Park? Here’s the Real Scoop on Your View
Why the Sun Plaza View Might Not Be All Sunshine
Picture this: you’re dreaming of a stunning panorama of the Tampines Eco Green Park, and you think a resale flat at the nearby Sun Plaza View will do the trick. Think again. All the blocks at Sun Plaza Spring are only 11 storeys tall, so the northern-facing stacks get their rays snatched away by the neighboring HDB towers of Sun Plaza View. Blk 428 (right across from Blk 400B of this BTO) stands shoulder‑to‑shoulder in height, while Blk 425 pushes a bit higher at 12 storeys. The result? Your view is, unfortunately, noisy, blocked, and slightly disappointing.
Stack Your Eyes on the Right Spot
- Look for units that face Gongshang Primary—rooms 254, 252, 238, or 212 will give you an unobstructed panorama.
- Just a heads‑up: noise and traffic from the school will be your constant companions. It’s a school‑yard hustle, but the view is worth it.
Dreaming of a Quiet Life Near the Childcare Centre?
If the proximity to the MSCP childcare centre is your fancy, hop over to Blk 400C. The childcare setup is on the first floor, so you’ll feel right next to the action—without the long‑haul commute.
Final Thoughts
In short, if you’re all about those green‑scenic vibes, the Sun Plaza View might see you wrong. Instead, aim for one of the Gongshang Primary–facing stacks or the Blk 400C units for an honest view and sweet proximity. Good luck finding the perfect spot for your Tampines oasis!
Woodlands Aug 2022 BTO (Woodlands South Plains)
Woodlands South Plains BTO – Your “What‑to‑Buy” Playbook
Unit Breakdown
There are 630 units spread across six block stacks, each full of energy‑sized 12‑storey apartment opportunities.
| Flat type | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Two‑room Flexi (Type One) | 66 |
| Two‑room Flexi (Type Two) | 209 |
| Three‑room | 87 |
| Four‑room | 268 |
Block Overview
- Six blocks, each ten stories tall (12 storeys, because who’d want a 10‑story block in the 21st century?)
- Strategically located in Woodlands South Plains, offering that contemporary Singapore vibe.
⏱ When Can You Move In?
Loading the waiting list composes a fun countdown: roughly 3 years and 9 months. That means you’ll be able to settle in sometime in Q1 2027. Hang tight – it’s almost summer!
Solar or Zen? Choosing Your Block for the Right Light
Much like the trendy Jurong East Breeze flats, the Woodlands South Plains units come with a north‑south orientation. That means some of the stacks lean to the east or the west, and that can be a blessing or a buffet of afternoon sun.
Sun‑sizzle Alert: Avoid These Stacks
- Stacks 192, 190, 188, 186, 184 – all face south‑west. If you want to keep your living room cooler than a snow‑cheese, steer clear.
- Lower floors in stacks 174, 176, 178, 180, 182 (below the ninth) face the MSCP (it stands for “Mani’s Secret Cooling Palace,” joking aside). Skip these if you’re craving privacy over a privacy‑from‑neighbors situation.
Think About Your Sun Exposure Preferences
– East‑facing units get that glorious sunrise and a morning glow that feels like a latte in a mug.
– West‑facing units tend to bask in the sunset; perfect for an evening cocktail or a “grabbing the view” vibe.
– North or South grids give you a lot of practicality with either comfy overcast or mild firelight—depends on your aesthetic.
A Few Final Tips
- Plan ahead: note the stack numbers and your sun tolerance.
- Consider floor level: higher floors usually bring better privacy and a breath of fresh air.
- Remember that a block’s orientation won’t dictate your entire lifestyle—just the vibe of your windows.
Happy house hunting at Woodlands South Plains! With the right block, you’ll keep the sun at bay or harness it for some fantastic light—your call.
The BTO that’s practically next to the MRT
If you’re on the hunt for a home that feels like it’s just minutes away from a train, this Build‑to‑Order (BTO) project is a top pick.
The Woodlands South MRT station sits right next to the development, so you’ll have instant access to Singapore’s transit network.
Where the vibes are best
A unit here means you can hop on the train without a single “get out of the park” trip.
The used‑to‑be silent spots will turn into a prayer space with a pleasant hum during prayer times.
Located next to stacks 186, 184, 180, 182 of Block 591B and stacks 150, 152, 148, 146 and 144 of Block 590C, it’s a nice touch for those who enjoy a bit of community vibe (just watch out for those early morning “Mosque‑Bus” sessions! ).
Views that switch the hustle
What we love about this BTO is the unobstructed vistas of the Central Water Catchment. Pick one of the south‑facing units from the 9th floor onward and you’ll have views that are literally a window to nature.
These face the upcoming Woodlands Health Campus— a seven‑storey medical facility that will become a new focal point in the area.
If you snag a unit overlooking the hospital, you’ll catch sweeping views of the reservoirs. A perfect backdrop for morning jogs, sunset selfies, or just watching the city’s daily hustle from your balcony.
