Pullman Residences condo is a new freehold residential development on Dunearn Road, near Newton Road in District 11, one of Singapore’s top three residential districts. It’s located in a private housing area surrounded by high-end condominiums, landed homes, and Good Class Bungalows.
Pullman Residences is one of the most attractive new launches in the Newton / Novena / Bukit Timah area. It’s just off Newton Circus, close to Orchard Road, and about a 3-minute walk from Newton MRT Interchange station. With limited land near Newton station, Pullman Residences Newton is in a prime location.
The development will be a 34-storey luxury condominium with 340 apartments ranging from one to four bedrooms. Large freehold condominiums like this are rare and generally more desirable than smaller projects of less than a hundred units because they offer more facilities and better resale value.
The area around Pullman Residences Newton, especially to the south, is quite open, giving the new high-rise development views of the city skyline.
Pullman Residence Newton is a luxury condominium under Accor’s Pullman brand, offering several special benefits.
Residents will enjoy hospitality services such as a doorman, a club lounge attendant, and concierge services. The concierge can arrange housekeeping, breakfast service, book personal trainers, or plan vacations on request.
Buyers will receive “platinum status” for LeClub AccorHotels membership, giving them special privileges at any Accor property in the Asia-Pacific region. These privileges include free breakfast, early check-in, late check-out, VIP service, and dedicated customer care.
This platinum status is valid from the purchase date until three years after the unit is ready for occupancy. After that, owners can continue enjoying platinum status by paying an annual fee.
The land where Pullman Residence condo is located used to be Dunearn Gardens. In April 2018, EL Development, a part of the construction company Evan Lim Group, bought Dunearn Gardens for $468 million in an en bloc sale.
Including an additional development charge of about $43.6 million, the total land cost was around $1,914 per square foot. EL Development paid this high price because they believed the prime location near the city would attract both investors and residents.
The Newton area is known for strong rental demand due to its closeness to shops, dining places, prestigious schools, and the Central Business District.
Pullman Residences Newton is particularly appealing to families with young boys, as it is within 1 km of Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) on Barker Road, Anglo-Chinese School (Junior) on Winstedt Road, and St Joseph’s Institution Junior on Essex Road.

Pullman Residences Newton Site Plan
The Pullman Residence site offers quite open views. The land is nearly rectangular, oriented north-east to south-west, with a cut-off corner on the eastern side.
The site is surrounded by similar high-rise condos like Newton One, Trilight, and Gilstead TWO, with ample space between them.
The views to the south-west, towards Newton MRT station, and to the north-west, over landed housing, are mostly unobstructed. Higher floor units facing south could enjoy views of the Orchard Road skyline, while those facing north-west might see the nature reserves beyond the landed estate.
Even the lower floor units at Pullman Residences Newton will have nice views, whether of the development’s pool and landscaping or neighboring gardens and pools. Generally, these lower floor units are also more affordable.

Read MoreDeveloper
Pullman Residences Singapore is being developed by EL Development Pte Ltd, a real estate development and investment company in Singapore.
EL Development began as a small business unit within Evan Lim & Co. Pte Ltd, a leading construction company in Singapore since May 1980.
In late 2006, EL Development successfully sold out its first high-end residential project, Rhapsody on Mount Elizabeth, within six weeks. Encouraged by this success, the company launched its first industrial project, Nordix, in early 2007. Nordix, a multi-user strata-titled terrace factory development in Woodlands, also sold out within two months.
As the business unit expanded, it became a separate company, EL Development, in June 2007 to focus solely on property development. Since then, it has completed numerous development and redevelopment projects, including private en bloc and government land sales, totaling over 3,000 residential and industrial units.
Their recent projects have received several property awards, such as:
- La Fiesta (FIABCI Singapore Property Awards 2018)
- Parc Riviera (Asia Pacific Property Awards 2018-2019 for Best Residential High-Rise Architecture)
- Symphony Suites (Asia Pacific Property Awards 2018-2019, Award Winner for Architecture Multiple Residence)
Other notable projects include SkySuites 17, Steven Suites, Illuminaire on Devonshire, Trivelis, Rosewood Suites, and Parc Centennial.
