Livia near completion 07 February 2011

There wasn't any photos taken for the last two months as I fractured my left leg and was out of action. I am now back in action and will continue to take the pictures regularly until TOP....hopefully in June this year!

  3. Hello please take good care of yourself. I am equally excited too as Livia TOP is drawing nearer. I have been driving past Livia more frequently for construction update. Compared to other condo developments, I still like Livia. The site area is huge with comprehensive condo facilities. Cdl websiite indicates TOP date to be Q2/Q3. I hope it will be in Q2.

  4. Thank you all for your well wishes.

    I am glad that you like the updates and will keep it coming. The architect's certificate of completion for block 75 I received recently indicates that the remaining stages of completion are mainly infrastructure and facilities. If this is the case for the rest of the blocks, TOP by Q2 is very likely.

    Lets keep the excitement going!

  6. besides Livia, I look forward to knowing all of you since we will be neighbors soon. My girl is turning 2 1/2 years and she will definitely enjoy the facilities. my unit is facing Nv Residences and I hope won't be fully blocked by the new development

  7. Hi guys ...i hope there are a few indians who have bought livia ..hopefully we'll have good company

  8. Hi there! You mentioned that you received the architect's certificate of completion for block 75, how did you get that? Is it something one has to apply for?

    I own a unit in Block 79 and am curious about the actual status, do you have more info?

    Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  9. Hi,the architect's certificate of completion was attached to the loan disbursement notice sent to you by your lawyer. Other than the updates posted on this blog I have no further info.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Oh ok, I thought this was a certificate with the latest status. Thanks and keep up the good work! Look forward to more updates from you ;-)

  11. Hi guys ..anyone who had visited livia showflat...How was it ? is Living room for 4 bedder spacious..? Can anyone give their reviews regarding the showflat like is it spacious ? furnishings ? facilities etc ? I have bought a unit in livia. Hoping to recieve some info thanks..

    ReplyDelete
  12. Guess what? I just received letter from my lawyer that TOP is estimated to be in April 2011 !! Great news, isn't it? Wow, still can't believe that TOP is happening so soon!!!

    ReplyDelete
  13. Hi, I've seen the showflat and yes, it was very spacious and the furnishings were excellent.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Hi CS, Thanks a lot for the positive comments regarding the showflat. I was really concerned about the living room size..But now i am relieved. Hope the TOP is in April ..

    ReplyDelete
  15. A yahoo forum indicates stack 61, 63 and 77 to be among the first block to get keys in Apr. I will call CDL to verify tomorrow cos my unit is in one of the stack.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Just call CDL and the officer mentions I will get the keys most likely in April for my stack. This is subjected to site inspection approval. For those who are keen to know the estimated time of retrieving key, can check with cdl directly. I understand the timing of obtaining keys defer from stack as this is a big condo development.

    ReplyDelete
  17. I also called CDL today and was informed that the TOP will be done in 2 Phases. Phase-I will be TOP for Blocks 61, 63, 77, 79, 81 and all other blocks will get TOP in Phase-II. The Phase-I TOP is expected in April 2011 and about 2 weeks after TOP, the developer will send out the letters for key collection to the purchaser's solicitors.

  18. Hey I have been following your blog since last year .... good to hear you are ok. Take care. Keep up the good job!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Thanks Jason and CS for sharing the info.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Just called CDL.....Block 75 will get TOP in July. I believe this refers to phase II TOP which includes block 65, 69, 71, 73 and 75.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Based on the current progress, the Action Zone may not be ready for the 1st Phase of TOP in April

    ReplyDelete
  22. Recieved letter. Tentative finished @ April.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Good to hear that many of you have started recieving the letters of TOP..I hope i get it soon too..Can anyone comment about the kitchen cabinets, kitchen size and living room size of livia. Thanks

    ReplyDelete
  24. Hi all, I am one of the owner in Livia too and just wonder have you guys start to search for any ID? Pls share if you have any good one to introduce. Thanks.. :)

    ReplyDelete
  25. From what I recollect, the living room is fairly big. The kitchen unfortunately is quite small (like in most condos these days) and the kitchen cabinets/drawers are to be provided by the developer. I remember the agent showing us around telling us that the drawers are soft-close. Hope this info helps.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Hey thanks a lot for thr info...good to hear that living room is of decent size. coz i haven't seen the showflat. what is the best thing u liked about the unit. would appreciate if u share . thanks

    ReplyDelete
  27. Looking forward to April. So excited :)

    ReplyDelete
  28. Check out the showflats of NV Residences if you had not seen Livia showflat. It is converted from previous Livia showflat and the layout of 3 & 4 bedrooms apartment is almost identical to that of Livia.

    Congratulations to those of you getting your keys in April. I can imagine how excited you must be!

    Good luck to all in your search for ID firms! Even though our block will get TOP only in July, my wife and I started the search last weekend. I will post them in my blog here if I find any good ones.

    ReplyDelete
  29. There is a Yahoo forum dedicated for Livia owners (Livia_sg) and they are discussing about the various ID options. I have yet to receive the notification letter. I called up CDL instead and got confirmation on receiving the keys likely in April.

  30. Does anyone have a floor plan measurement of the individual rooms or spaces within the house? Or anyone know where can I get it?

    ReplyDelete
  31. Hey Phil thats a question i wanted to ask also...Since i've not seen the livia showflat and in the NV residences showflat living and dining area quite small..i was wondering how we can getthe indiviual measurement..

    ReplyDelete
  32. Hi all,

    I noticed that there is a new road (one way) created near NV residence showflat, going towards LIVIA. Is this the actual one? or only for construction access?

    ReplyDelete
  33. There will be a new road called Pasir Ris Grove. Not sure if you are referring to this.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I can see that the new Pasir Ris Grove has been constructed from Drive 1. Currently, it is ending somewhere near NV construction site.

    A new road has been made from Drive8 towards NV construction. Not sure if this is going to be part of Pasir Ris Grove

    ReplyDelete
  35. Anyone know whether is there a see thru glass for the kitchen?

    ReplyDelete
  36. If you are referring to kitchen & dining, then its yes.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Hi Jenny, Thanks alot. Can i visit your unit when you get your keys because mine is at stack 71 but we will only get our keys in July and i am very excited to see the interior. // Lynn//

    ReplyDelete
  38. Hi Anonymous,
    I dropped an email to CDL asking for a floor plan with dimension. Let you know if it works.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Sure Lynn, if time fits...

    ReplyDelete
  40. Thanks Jenny, hey by the way have you started to look for ID for your house? Care to share your contact if you have good one because i have started to contact a few ID but their price are high.. Thanks..//Lynn//

    ReplyDelete
  41. can you tell me what is an ID?

    ReplyDelete
  42. ID = Interior Design or Designer

    ReplyDelete
  43. ID = interior designer. No intention to look for one. DIY.

    ReplyDelete
  44. have anyone sold their unit(s) already? I'm not looking to sell after waiting for its TOP for so bloody long. Just need to check out any potential profits so far.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Hi all, for floor plan of your unit, you can write to CDL and in around a week's time, they will send it to you. I've requested for my unit, waiting to receive it.

    You can check on URA website for the latest transacted price for LIVIA units.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I have sent a floor plan (with scale) email to CDL on Monday. I am expecting to get it by Friday. The property officer in charge of the Livia is Ms Chang Hwei Min. Her email is hweimin@cdl.com.sg. Please remember to quote your unit number.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I have gotten a floor plan (with scale) from CDL quite sometime ago. However, there is no dimension given on the plan. Does it mean that we have to measure and estimate ourself?

    ReplyDelete
  48. hi all,
    I am also a livia owner. Also bought a unit in Stack 63. Wonder whether anyone has initiated a bulk purchase so that we can enjoy better discounts. ? This could be for clothes hanger, planter decking, curtains etc as this are commonly required for all units. what do you guys think?

    ReplyDelete
  49. Hi Chua, I asked CDL, they do not have floor plan with dimension. They only have floor plan with scale. I am wondering if it is reliable with our own calculation.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Hi everyone.. Can anyone reveal the living room sq ft according to the own calculation of the scale floor plan. I have bought subsale 4 bedroom unit can't wait till cdl replies.. tha

    ReplyDelete
  51. I have a floor plan with scale for C1a in hand. Let me know your email address if anyone wants it.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Hi All, I have received my floor plan with scale (Type E1) today and have created a new post "Livia Floor Plan" in my blog with a link for downloading.

    For those of you who have the floor plans for other unit types and would like to share with other Livia owners, you can email me through a copy at benloh168@yahoo.com.sg and I will post it to my blog post.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Hi Phil, I think for the purpose of estimation to choose furniture, it should be okay.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Hi guys, Can pls somebody email me the floor Plan Type E1 with scale if possible . I have a meeting with the ID Today it will really help. My email is geetu_parimal@yahoo.com. Kindly send it to me asap . Thanks guys.

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  72. So now is the right time to sell ?

    ReplyDelete
  73. any news about the TOP time??

    ReplyDelete
  74. Have wrote to CDL asking about the TOP dates. Their reply is May / Jun and subject to relevant authority approval for the TOP. Now it is coming to end May. Looks like it will be Jun..if we are lucky.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Does it applies to all blocks or just for phrase I?

    ReplyDelete
  76. I guess I am not the only one who was misled by Ms Chang Hwei Min regarding the TOP date. I was told by her that phase 1 will be after CNY in Q1, then it was postponed to Apr, then to May.....I think it is time for CDL to stop using the slogan "Dedicated to Surpassing Expectations" on their website. http://www.cdl.com.sg/app/cdl/customers/homebuyer_services/top_progress.xml
    Their project manager did not even know what is the progress on the worksite!

    ReplyDelete
  77. I am also an owner in block 77. Till now not even received any letter about TOP. Recently just paid for the phase before TOP. I suspect would be in June. Anyway still excited about it. I drive past LIVIA every morning cos got to send my son to school in Casuarina Pri. Hope to meet all of you in LIVIA when we finally move in. :)

  78. Hi, anyone of you heard of bulk buy of the planter flooring going on among Livia owners? I heard it from my ID, who heard it from another Livia owner.

    ReplyDelete
  79. I've called CDL and they informed me that CDL is in the process of applying for BCA permit. Once approved, it will take another 3-4 weeks for the documents to be prepared before our solicitors are informed.
