Large crowds were drawn at the start of The Clement Canopy preview on the weekend of 11 and 12 February. The condo which has 505 units is located at Clementi Avenue 1. It attracted more than 5,000 people who packed its showflat to view the 2-4 bedrooms apartments over the 2 preview days.
The units of from 635 to 1,539 sq ft are in two blocks of 40 storeys each. The smallest unit is going at $850,000 and the average price being between $1,330 to $1,360 psf.
The 99-year leasehold condo is a joint development of SingLand and UOL Group and it is the first to be launched in 2017. It is conveniently located near Nan Hua High School and NUS School of Mathematics and Science.
“The Clementi Canopy has received strong interest since the area has not had any new launches for a while. I believe that the price is playing a big role to the excitement seen at the crowd,” said Anthony Wong UOL General manager of Marketing.
