Advantages:
Great location and great facilities sum
up the great demand for Leonie Condotel.
Leonie Condotel as viewed from the Great World Serviced apartment pool, is
within walking distance to the Great World City shopping mall and Cineplex.
8-minute walk to Orchard Road and 2 subways (Orchard & Somerset) and many shopping
malls and supermarkets in Orchard Road's malls besides the Great World City
Shopping Centre.
If you click thumbnail, you will see Leonie Condotel within a 3-minute drive to Orchard
Road/Paterson Road and the Overseas Family School
Though not new, it is extremely popular
with Americans and other nationalities as it is close to 2 subways and Orchard Road.
It has an impressive visitor's foyer of polished Italian granite which is important for
expats who need to impress clients. It has a unique Graeco-Roman architecture.
A squarish-layout for the living and dining areas and the bedrooms make it easier to
arrange furniture.
Outside the CBD (Central Business District) Restricted Zone's toll gate and therefore no
need to pay the vehicle electronic tolls per entry into the CBD.
Away from traffic noise.
Leonie Condotel. Big balcony, swimming pool, gym and great location.
Big balcony from the living room for a table and 4 chairs has always been an asset to any
serviced apartment or condo. Some floor plans have a smaller 50 sq. ft balcony off
the master bedroom.
Powder room present. Kitchen is air conditioned.
From the main door, an entry foyer with steps leading to the living area and then the
separate dining area on one side. Bedrooms are at the sides of the entry foyer.
Maid's room available, with air conditioning. Most serviced apartments in Singapore
don't have maid's room.
Medium density condo with large Caucasian population and many children.
Air-conditioned kitchen. However, the air conditioner is a window unit type, not the
ductless type seen in new luxurious condos like Grange 80, Nassim Woods and The Paterson
Edge.
Many taxis plying along Leonie Hill.
On-site management is important for tenants.
A big billiard room, uncommon in any condo.
Disadvantages:
Except for top floors, an unobstructed view from the living area is rarely available
as neighbours are high rise condos. You may see some ships and sea from the top
floors. |
