R&F Princess Cove Phase 3

Prices, floor plans and an honest view before you shortlist.

Project perspective

Real, not promised, connectivity: the CIQ bridge exists and the RTS terminal is walkable. The trade-off is scale: 4,385 new units join an estate that already has hundreds listed for resale. Buy the specific stack and price, not the story. Developer headline "from RM430k" refers to a 313 sqft studio that is not on the current released charts.

Editorial judgement · pending review

The Strategy

Freehold title, which is uncommon for a serviced residence this close to JB city centre.
About 650 m covered link bridge straight into the JB CIQ, with the Bukit Chagar RTS terminal within walking distance.
Same developer has already delivered Phase 1 (2018) and Phase 2 (handover from April 2024) on this site.

Cons / Things to check

You need to move in soon (VP target 2029), want residential utility tariffs (commercial title), or dislike competing with a large existing resale pool in the same development.
Confirm current pricing (from RM 626K) and the 2029 completion timeline before booking.

Own stay & investment

Own stay

Integrated township with R&F Mall and a hotel on the masterplan, plus its own sky park facility deck. Suits a lock-up-and-go city lifestyle rather than family space.

Investment

Pricing is built on RTS proximity. New units sit roughly 16% above the in-development resale median on the entry 1-bed and much more on larger or higher units, so yield and exit depend on the RTS premium holding.

How it compares with nearby options

Different entry prices also mean different home sizes. Compare both before deciding.
