Hahaha..... First kena super expensive price at super small size. I read that 5-room is 105 sqm! On top of that, it comes with 12 sqm balcony and 5 sqm ac ledge and walkways to the room. Common room size is 2.5x3 m.... Go figure....

 

Trivelis floor plan

 

Now BTO popped up right beside it.

At this rate the rooms are shrinking, sooner or later a coffin will offer more resting space than the bedroom.

[Chewbacca]

2.5 x 3?????

 

That's smaller than standard 4 room HDB, isn't it?

 

 

[JackRabbit]

wow.. the balcony is bigger than the living room + dining room combined!!

[JackRabbit]

And the Aircon ledge is bigger than the kitchen.. wah piang.. who the fiack the architect who design this white elephant?

[Old-driver]

Why would they need such a big balcony anyway? bigger than the room

i am always not motivated to pay for balcony space.

 

but developers always like to build balcony to give a nice external facade

[Babyt]

cos balcony is a good way to add floor plan area and sell higher to customers?

Very simple reasons, cos it look big n nicer from outside.

balcony is aesthetically pleasing. easier to con buyers into buying.

 

it has been proven many times through research of consumer buying habits that buying decision is more often powered by impulse than by rational thinking.

the balcony, aircon ledge

all i can endure

 

 

y a BTO next to it.

 

i think EdgeDeeBee either

1) "forget" they need to manage the expectations of owners at DBSS

2) totally heck care this group of people called DBSS owners

3) have "greater" plans for DBSS in the future

 

 

 

my take?

2!

[Wyfitms]

if i am not wrong, developers were given 10% bonus GFA for balconies.

 

Just pay for DC which is approx half of land value psf.

 

So cost to them is >50% of land value but can sell 100% of psf value to buyers. This led to super sized balconies.

 

Not sure if URA is still giving out these bonus 10% or not...
