The One Normanton Park showflat will be the next mega launch to open for viewing after those of Florence Residences and Treasure at Tampines. It sits on the site of the former Normanton Park condo, itself a long time landmark in the area. The land was bought over by Kingsford (Huray) Development in an enbloc collective sale, who offered $962 PSF PPR and thus managed to beat out the competition.
This new development will provide 1,882 units for sale, a quadrupling of the original 400+ sites on the land. Hardly surprising, given how big the original units were, but still a pity, as it goes the way of all the new projects. One sometimes wishes that some enlightened developer would buck the trend and offer bigger units for a change.
Anyway, one thing that will not change is that Normanton Park units facing south will still get to enjoy the unblocked views over Kent Ridge Hill park and to the sea off the Pasir Panjang coastline. Currently not a terribly pretty sight with all the port stuff off the coast, but set to change once it all moves to Tuas in maybe 10 to 20 years time.
And the other is of course the unique location that this project occupies. It is the only big size condominium so close, right next door to Science Park, and also to the NUS complex. The drawback here is that the nearest MRT station at Kent Ridge is 1km away, not a very comfortable walking distance.
Expect the Normanton Park showflat to open for the preview period around the May 2019 timeframe, give or take a couple of months.
