Skies Miltonia, a recently launched project near the Orchid Country Club in Yishun, sold over 60% as of last Friday. Totalling 420 units, only 78 are one bedroom units, ranging 484-624sf. Let's take a look at the 484sf layout.
Generally a very decent layout, with potential use of the AC ledge as laundry 'yard' area. Looks like the kitchen may potentially be enclosed as well if you fix up a partition/door. Living, dining and bedroom all decently spacious, with added incentive of natural ventilation for the toilet. Not sure if you are able to have the bedroom door inside so toilet can be accessed by guests without entering your bedroom. From the floor plan looks like there are two doors - both inside and outside, quite rare.
However, from the site plan, it appears all the one bedroom stacks are facing the back of the site, where there is no view of the reservoir plus future blockage potential. This is not unusual, for any full condo project, usually the one bedders face the most disadvantaged facing.
At a indicative pricing of $1100psf, the lower floor units may work out to be <$500k, which is a steal in today's market, however one has to be prepared to live with no mentionable view (perhaps low floor is best if there is ample tree/greenery coverage) and lack of accessibility for own stay, and an untested location if it is for investment / rental purposes.
