<p>Over the past few months, we are gradually seeing more residential buildings coming up in Tengah (check out our site photos below). What was once a venture into a brave new, unknown world is now starting to feel a bit more concrete (quite literally). We take a look at Tengah’s latest BTOs that were launched in October 2023. Plantation Edge I and II sits. Our analysis here also looks at the best units to pick.</p>

<h2>What’s around the site?</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175442" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/1-Plantation-Edge-I-II-BTO-Tengah-October-2023-Unit-Analysis-2.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />Tengah town's up and running.</p>
<p>If you don’t already know, Tengah will officially have 5 districts within it. BTO Plantation Edge I and II will, of course, sit within the Plantation district, which is known for its community farming plots that are set to be woven through the housing blocks. These will also be integrated with other social and community nodes in the area.</p>
<p>Plantation Edge I and II edges out (#sorrynotsorry) in terms of its location right next to the upcoming Tengah Park MRT along the Jurong-Region Line (JRL). If you look at the MRT map for the JRL, it’s just three stops to the Jurong East interchange, which allows you to change over to the North-South and East-West Lines.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175443" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/2-JRL-Alignment-Map-1024x900-1.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="900" />Jurong Region Line.</p>
<p>One drawback of being situated near the MRT is definitely the noise. Since the JRL is an elevated train line, you can expect to hear some track noise, particularly from the stacks next to it. Plus, the BTO is positioned along the busy Bukit Batok Road, so it’s a combination of two sources of noise. Not the quietest of BTOs, I’m afraid.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175444" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/3-Plantation-Edge-I-II-BTO-Tengah-October-2023-Unit-Analysis-1.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />Bukit Batok Road.</p>
<p>What about amenities? The site itself will house a supermarket, eating house and several shops so getting everyday necessities probably won’t require you to travel too far. For a wider variety of shops and eating places, the neighbourhood centre within Plantation district is situated over at <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/nov-2019-bto-analysis-tengahs-plantation-grange-plantation-village-and-garden-vines" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Plantation Village</a>, and will take you around a 10-min walk or one MRT stop. Alternatively, drop by mixed-use development Le Quest (11-min walk) situated within the Bukit Batok West neighbourhood for other retail and food options.</p>
<p>There will also be a 3-storey community centre over at <a href="https://www.renonation.sg/tengahs-plantation-grove-nov-2018-bto-analysis-which-unit-to-choose" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Plantation Grove</a> that will also take you 10 mins by foot.</p>
<p>Based on our calculations, it appears that Jurong Primary School and Princess Elizabeth Primary School are the primary schools currently situated within a 1-km radius. Also, Pioneer Primary School at Jurong West is anticipated to relocate to the plot adjacent to the BTO development by 2026. There is a chance that Bukit View Primary School’s new campus on Bukit West Avenue 8 will also fall within this proximity by 2027. It's highly unlikely though that the relocated and highly-anticipated Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) will be within this 1-km range. So take note of that, parents!</p>
<h2>Unit Analysis for Plantation Edge I and II</h2>
<p>There will be rental flats nestled in a few of the stacks at two blocks, specifically at 105A and 109B. There will also be an entire block dedicated solely to rental flats at 106A.</p>
<h3><span style="background-color: #ffd2f6;">2-room</span></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175445" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/4-03_siteplan_tg_d1c5a-c5b-2room.jpg" alt="" width="2200" height="1556" /></p>
<ul>
	<li>For more private, quieter stacks: Regrettably, the 2-room units in this building don't offer much privacy or peace and quiet. They all face the on-site facilities, such as the lift lobbies, MRT tracks, or Bukit Batok Road. If you want a relatively quieter and more private unit, your best option would be to choose a corner unit on a higher floor. Stacks <strong>707</strong> and <strong>773</strong>, in particular, are corner stacks that offer this advantage. Although they overlook fitness corners and playgrounds, there isn't another building directly in front of them for some distance, allowing for a bit more privacy.</li>
	<li>Away from the afternoon sun: Stacks <strong>328</strong> and <strong>330</strong> are likely to get some shade in the afternoon. </li>
	<li>Decent views: Stacks <strong>328</strong>, <strong>330</strong>, <strong>701</strong>, <strong>703</strong> and <strong>705</strong>. Pick a unit on a higher floor (above the 7th floor) for relatively unblocked views.</li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="background-color: #bbffc6;">3-room</span></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175446" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/5-03_siteplan_tg_d1c5a-c5b-3room.jpg" alt="" width="2200" height="1556" /></p>
<ul>
	<li>For more private, quieter stacks: There isn't much privacy in any of the 3-room stacks, as most of them are located next to the lift lobbies. However, if you’re looking for a quieter option, stacks <strong>314</strong> and <strong>352</strong> would be your best bet since they are not close to areas where people usually gather.</li>
	<li>Away from the afternoon sun: Stacks <strong>314</strong>, <strong>352</strong> and <strong>779</strong> are likely to receive some shade. </li>
	<li>Decent views: Pick a higher-floor unit at stack <strong>779</strong>, preferably above the 6th floor for relatively unblocked views.</li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="background-color: #fff498;">4-room</span></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175447" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/6-03_siteplan_tg_d1c5a-c5b-4room.jpg" alt="" width="2200" height="1556" /></p>
<ul>
	<li>For more private, quieter stacks: Stacks <strong>316</strong> and <strong>354</strong>. </li>
	<li>Away from the afternoon sun: Stacks <strong>354</strong>, <strong>396</strong>, <strong>398</strong>, <strong>763</strong> and <strong>765</strong> are likely to get some shade in the afternoon. </li>
	<li>Decent views: Stacks <strong>322</strong> and <strong>324</strong> are likely to get unblocked views.</li>
</ul>
<h3><span style="background-color: #ffd39b;">5-room</span></h3>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-175448" src="https://d213h1b7vxzzl3.cloudfront.net/editor/7-03_siteplan_tg_d1c5a-c5b-5room.jpg" alt="" width="2200" height="1556" /></p>
<ul>
	<li>For more private, quieter stacks: Stacks <strong>312</strong>, <strong>364</strong> and <strong>761</strong>.</li>
	<li>Away from the afternoon sun: Stacks <strong>392</strong>, <strong>394</strong> and <strong>761</strong> are likely to get some shade from the afternoon sun. </li>
	<li>Decent views: Opt for units above the 4th floor at stacks <strong>721</strong>, <strong>723</strong>, and <strong>725</strong>; opt for units above the 5th floor at stacks <strong>747</strong> and <strong>749</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Finally, do take note that Plantation Edge I will be completed slightly earlier than Plantation Edge II, based on the estimated completion dates by HDB.</p>
