Highlights: The Antares has received a bit of a mixed reaction; but those of you who need to live near the CBD (on a budget) owe it to yourselves to know about this place. The immediate location of The Antares is not very exciting: there are no nearby malls, no cinema, no lifestyle zones, etc. Barring the FairPrice at Block 77 nearby, there isn’t much to do. However, what The Antares offers is a simple convenience: It’s right next to the Mattar MRT station (Downtown Line), and it’s an 7.7 kilometre (roughly 12-minute drive) to Raffles Place. Now we wouldn’t usually mention schools here, as $1.6 million is for smaller units and we assume most of you aren’t family buyers.
