Hi Chronograph, It is a low floor unit (not ground floor) and at Clementi Ave 6, not Sunset, so it is lower than 600k. No complaints as the owner has a super metoculous maid that has upkept the house very well - she puts chairs back in their place when it is slightly out of place etc. Still, am changing the room doors, painting the whole house, changing toilet bowls and some light fittings plus ceiling fans and changing curtains (EM has so many windows and windows are soooo long - total about 15k inclusive of some new furniture pieces. Flooring is granite and parquet, so can't bear to hack as it is in pristine condition - kitchen already has solid countertop (in white). And no more balcony as living room has been extended and levelled with balcony, which is what I prefer. Still, I wish the older EMs had a smaller balcony. Was eyeing the Toh Yi area - made an offer of 680k for an EM but was rejected! Didn't realize Clementi was so much cheaper. Sunset is more expensive as it is more hip I guess But the Clementi EM blocks are solely executive-only flats, and no multi-storey carpark, which is what I prefer.

Dear All, I just bought an EM @ Clementi, 23 years old, well-maintained unit. 150 sq m, but it isn't a corner unit. Not doing any renovation work as the recent renovation was done 5 years back and it was well done. Not 100% to my taste, but the condition is too good to redo. Bought at valuation, though price is still high.... moving in Oct. I'm converting the dining area to a study area with two L-shaped tables - will be using the area outside the kitchen as the dining area. Thanks for all the tips received on this thread. Best regards
