2008-01-09 07:42:00 Singapore Reflections at Keppel Bay units to set new price benchmarks By Geraldine Ding and Yvonne Cheong, Â SINGAPORE : Remaining units at upmarket waterfront residence, Reflections at Keppel Bay, are expected to set new price benchmarks for condos in the harbourfront area. This bullish view came from its joint developer Keppel Land. The units released under phase one of the project last year had already set benchmark prices for the west coast. Mirroring the buoyant property market, Reflections at Keppel Bay set new record prices for high-end luxury properties in the west last year. 620 units released under phase one were sold for an average of nearly S$2,000 per square foot. They were snapped up within eight months of the launch last April. Keppel Land says they expects even higher prices for the remaining 509 units as some of the more expensive blocks have been reserved for phase two. He believes the super penthouse, which has an area of more than 12,000 square feet, will set a ...
