THE OLA EXECUTIVE CONDOMINIUM

Here we present the OLA EC. OLA is a new executive condominium that launched for sale in February / March 2020. It is located at Anchorvale Crescent in Sengkang estate, in a de facto executive condo enclave, and is being positioned as a “Luxury Branded” EC.

This new Sengkang EC site is bounded by Treasure Crest and Bellewaters ECs to its north, and Vales EC to its east across the road, all of which sold out sometime back.

So what are the attributes, and drawbacks of the Ola executive condo?

One advantage it has is that it doesn’t face much competition. The last EC launch in Sengkang was Rivercove in 2018, that sold out within a short time of its preview then.

In 2019, Piermont Grand at Sumang Walk in Punggol was the only new EC for sale. As of now, it has sold almost all the most popular unit types. So the Ola EC launch comes at a good time to meet demand that has built up since.

The other advantage of the Ola EC location is that it is within easy reach of most amenities. For one, it is within 1 km of Nan Chiau Primary School, popularly considered the top primary school in the Sengkang / Punggol district. The 600m or so walk there takes about 8 to 9 minutes.

Sengkang is an established residential estate, with a full suite of amenities. The town centre has an MRT station, a post office, Kopitiam Square, and the Compass One mall that houses a food court, supermarket, community library, banks, shops, cafes and F&B outlets and coffee joints.

Perhaps Ola EC’s biggest drawback is that it is not extremely close to an MRT station. It takes around 11 minutes to walk to Sengkang Town Centre and station.

The alternative is to take the LRT. You have Cheng Lim LRT station within a couple of minutes walk, that is one stop from the town centre.

This Anchorvale Crescent EC is also just opposite the new Sengkang Hospital. That could be good or bad depending on how you perceive it.

On the one hand, you may not like the idea of being near a hospital. It’s a personal preference.

On the other, it might present possible upside potential if you are looking from an investment perspective. Whether you choose to rent out or sell after the 5 years MOP (Minimum Occupation Period) is fulfilled, there could be demand from medical and ancillary staff or related healthcare professionals.

    Architecture / Lifestyle Concept

    The design of the OLA EC is inspired by Spanish art and culture. It incorporates artistic touches derived from the best of Spanish art and design sensibilities, that has played a major role in shaping modern architecture.

    Multi-Generational Living at OLA EC

    Multi-Generational Living at OLA EC

    It also takes its inspiration from aspects of Spanish culture, such as the warmth and love of family, quality of craftsmanship, and ways of living an inspired life. The spaces are designed to promote the right dynamics between people, architecture and the environment.

    OLA seeks to forge a distinctive presence in the neighbourhood, with a contemporary lifestyle set within classically refined spaces.

    Its 548 apartments are designed with residents in mind. Each home is a sanctuary. Each is thoughtfully designed to optimise views and allow natural daylight into the apartment, while avoiding the east-west orientation.

    To that end, the residential towers are intentionally placed in a rhythmic, yet ordered manner. They are also deliberately staggered to avoid an oppressively solid façade.

      The OLA EC Site Plan Features

      The Ola EC Site Location Plan

      The Ola EC Site Location Plan

      The Ola executive condo occupies a rectangular parcel of land oriented in a slightly tilted north-south direction. Hence the blocks and units will be laid out along the same north-north-east / south-south-west axis, which also helps channel the seasonal wind flows.

      The site itself is a corner plot, bounded by Anchorvale Crescent, and Anchorvale Street, along which runs the LRT line. Cheng Lim station is about a minutes walk away, in front of the Vales EC.

      The units fronting Anchorvale Street will face the Sengkang Community Hospital, which means higher floor units should overlook it. To the north of the site is Treasure Crest EC, that recently completed, so its residents have just moved in.

      While west of the site is an empty plot of land that is zoned for a school. That would likely be not more than 5 or 6 storeys high, which will allow better wind flows as it is relatively unblocked.

      The Ola Price Estimates . Click to Open / Close

      The Ola EC site spans an area of 184,465 sq ft. Under the Master Plan, it is zoned for residential use, with a plot ratio of 3. This translates to a maximum permissible built-in floor area of 553,397 sq ft.

      Hence the $318,888,899 paid by the developer for the site, will work out to a land rate of $576 PSF PPR (per square foot per plot ratio).

      This could mean a break even of around $1,050 PSF PPR, after taking into account all the development and construction, as well as admin, financing and overhead costs.

      So what will the selling price be like after factoring in the margin? If Piermont Grand EC with a similar land cost, is anything to go by, we could be looking at an average of around $1,100 PSF.

      The OLA Location Features


      1. Location. The Ola executive condo is located at Anchorvale Crescent / Anchorvale Street in Sengkang. This is an established HDB estate next to Punggol and the future Punggol Digital District, highlighted in the latest URA Master Plan as one of the upcoming growth nodes.

      2. MRT / LRT Stations. The Ola EC location is 800m, or 10 to 11 minutes walk, to Sengkang town centre and the MRT station. From there it is 19 minutes train ride to Doby Ghaut station at one end of Orchard Road.

        It is possible to shave a minute or two from that walk, by cutting diagonally across the HDB blocks of Compassvale North Gate. Starting at block 262A, past 262D, and out under the void deck of 260A. With practice you should be able to find the shortest route after a while.

        Alternatively there is the choice of walking a couple of minutes to the Cheng Lim LRT station, that is one stop from the Sengkang MRT station and town centre. Useful option to have in bad weather.

      3. Shopping, Banks, Dining, Supermarkets. You can find a complete range of amenities at the town centre. Such as Compass One mall that houses a supermarket, a community library, shops, banks, a food court, restaurants, cafes, and fast food outlets. As well as Sengkang Community Hub with its post office and polyclinic, and the Kopitiam Square market and hawker centre.

        You can also opt to take an LRT ride 4 stops in the other direction to Fernvale station, where one can find Seletar Mall with its various shops and an NTUC Fairprice Finest Supermarket.

      4. Leisure & Sports Facilities. The Ola EC location is within walking distance too, about 500m or 7 minutes walk, from the Sengkang Sports Complex and Sports Centre with its three huge pools and slides, and a stadium.

        Just beyond that, across Punggol Reservoir / River and linked by a wetlands bridge is the Sengkang Riverside Park. This comprises a constructed wetland with a rich biodiversity that should appeal to nature lovers, and provides an oasis of green amidst the concrete around. What is interesting is that the park also boasts a mega-childcare centre, designed to blend into the greenery.

        From the sports centre, a park connector and cycling path runs along the river bank to Punggol Waterway, with its riverside dining and sporting facilities. Or you could pop into Waterway Point mall for a spot of dinner and some shopping, before making your leisurely way home.

      5. Sengkang Riverside Park near this Executive Condo Location

        Sengkang Riverside Park near the Ola EC Location

      6. Medical Facilities. Directly across Anchorvale Street, we have the newly opened Sengkang General and Community Hospitals, one of the largest and most modern regional hospitals in Singapore. It should provide a good source of tenants and buyers if you are considering future capital appreciation prospects for the Ola EC.
      7. Schools. Nan Chiau Primary School is less than 600m away, within the necessary 1 km radius for priority admission. Note however that in recent years, balloting was still needed within this range. Hardly surprising, as Nan Chiau has a well earned reputation for caring and experienced staff, for nurturing students, and achieving results above the national average.

        There are also other primary schools within the 1 km radius. Such as Springdale Primary, Anchor Green Primary, and Compassvale Primary.

      8. Accessibility. The Ola location is actually more accessible than it appears at first glance, being just a couple minutes drive to the Tampines Expressway (TP). From there it takes around 20 minutes drive to get to Changi Airport or 25 minutes to the Raffles Place / Marina Bay area via the KPE (Kallang Paya-Lebar Expressway).
