"Summer Place Condo"

This is the new condo which interest me the most... called Summer Place, just recently obtained OC:



Contains 3 towers



Guard house



Entry to each tower requires security access card



Multi-level carpark. Each unit gets 2 car parks, which is rare in Penang!



Swimming pool



Playground



3 lifts to service 12 units per floor



Corridor



One of the units we visited... there are different types available



This is the 1012 sq ft type... cheapest :P



Kitchen for the 1109 sq ft type... forgot to take one of the 1012 sq ft, but it is one or more tile lesser in width



It has a dry yard... could be problematic as people can climb in from outside..!



Master room



Master room's toilet.. the nice thing is that it already comes with the glass panel



Bedroom 2



Bedroom 3... very small.. potential candidate to be converted into the Museum! :P



Common toilet.. both toilet seems pretty small I feel...



The best part is the balcony! Depending on which tower and which unit, you can get the Penang bridge view....



Or the jetty view...



Or the most expensive.. swimming pool view!

So... why don't buy it yet?

1) Price skyrocketed from RM 395K to 420K, depending on view! Original developer price was starting from RM298K, which is almost RM100K increase..........

2) Leasehold... left 97 years...

Sigh...property in Penang has really become the playground of speculators and investors, driving property to ridiculous prices... :( Pity those of us who really want to buy for own stay. The saddest part is that I could actually have bought it from the developer TWICE at cost price... double SIGHHHHH~~~~~~~~~~~
