Property District: D23 - Bukit Panjang / Choa Chu Kang / Dairy Farm

Welcome to The Botany at Dairy Farm, a new condo for sale in the Dairy Farm estate in the Hillview area, near Upper Bukit Timah Road. It is located at Dairy Farm Walk, Dairy Farm Heights, and Dairy Farm Lane, opposite the German European School of Singapore.

Though it is about an 11-minute walk from Hillview MRT station, The Botany condo has a unique advantage: it is close to the lush greenery and reservoirs of the Central Water Catchment area of Singapore.

Moreover, it is expected to be the lowest priced new condo launch currently.

Across from the low-rise German European School are Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and Dairy Farm Nature Park. These protected nature reserves ensure that higher floor south-facing units will have green views of Bukit Timah Hill and the parks.

To the east and southeast, across Bukit Timah Expressway, lies the Upper Pierce Reservoir and its surrounding forests, which are part of the Central Water Catchment area.

To the west and northwest, across Bukit Timah Road, is Hillview Estate, featuring Bukit Batok Nature Park, Town Park, and Bukit Gombak.

Homes in the Hillview and Dairy Farm estates attract buyers who prefer a quieter, greener environment over convenience and crowds. This area offers a relaxed and laid-back atmosphere.

Additionally, studies have shown that homes near the Central Catchment water bodies and reserves, like this one, are up to 2 degrees cooler and often have fresher and less polluted air. This is a significant benefit given the current climate changes and rising temperatures.

The Botany condo is developed by Sim Lian Land, part of Sim Lian Group, a local real estate company.

The design takes advantage of the best features of the site and its unique character. The architecture and landscaping will blend seamlessly with the surrounding greenery.

At the main entrance, there will be an open and welcoming arrival deck, surrounded by lush greenery. Similar open spaces will be placed between the blocks to allow plenty of light and air into the units.

The garden will have various water features and small landscaped areas, creating a spa-like and resort-like feel. Nature is a key focus throughout The Botany condo, with breezes through the trees providing a sense of peace and tranquility.

The communal facilities are designed to connect residents with the outdoors, featuring indoor-outdoor spaces woven throughout the area.

Floor Plans

The Botany at Dairy Farm Site Plan

This Dairy Farm condo is on a regular-shaped plot of land in the Dairy Farm Estate. It’s bordered by Dairy Farm Walk to the north, Dairy Farm Heights to the west, and Dairy Farm Lane to the south.

The main vehicle entrance will be from Dairy Farm Walk.

Currently, the land to the north and west is empty but is planned for future residential developments and a school. To the south, across Dairy Farm Lane, is the German European School Singapore, which is six storeys high, except for a school field at its east end.

Because of this, higher floor south-facing units at The Botany condo might have views of Bukit Timah Hill, especially since the nature reserves on Bukit Timah Hill are on elevated ground.

Similarly, higher floors might also have partial views to the east of the Central Water Catchment forests and Upper Peirce Reservoir.

Developer

The Botany at Dairy Farm is being developed by a joint venture between Sim Lian Land Pte Ltd and Sim Lian Development Pte Ltd, both subsidiaries of the Sim Lian Group.

Sim Lian Group

Sim Lian Group has been building homes in Singapore for over 40 years. The company started in construction before expanding into property development. Its core business focuses on efficient space planning and quality workmanship, earning a reputation for practical and functional layouts.

Today, Sim Lian Group is a well-known property development and construction company, involved in residential, commercial, mixed-use, retail, and industrial projects. The group also has an investment portfolio that includes commercial real estate in regions like Australia.

Sim Lian has adapted to changing market conditions over the years, guided by a management team with over 150 years of combined industry experience. The group is dedicated to creating quality living and working spaces that endure over time.

In Singapore, Sim Lian’s notable projects include Vision Exchange, Clover by the Park, Rochelle at Newton, Lincoln Residences, A Treasure Trove, Hillion Residences & Hillion Mall, and Trilliant at Tampines.

Location

The Botany condo is located in a private residential area between Cashew Road and Dairy Farm Road. The neighborhood consists of low to mid-rise condominiums surrounding a landed housing area. It borders the Bukit Timah nature reserve to the south and the Upper Peirce forests and reservoir to the east.

The landed estate features a mix of one to three-storey houses in various styles, with nature-inspired road names like Cashew Crescent, Almond Avenue, and Chestnut Drive.

Shops, Food & Beverage, Services, and Supermarkets

Residents of The Botany at Dairy Farm will have convenient access to Dairy Farm Mall, which is next door. The mall includes a food court, various F&B outlets, shops, and a supermarket.

Alternatively, a 15-minute walk will take residents to the Rail Mall, or a short drive will get them to the HillV2 lifestyle mall. The Rail Mall, a row of conserved single-storey shops with a charming facade, offers a mix of shops, bars, and cafes in a rustic setting.

HillV2, on the other hand, is a more upscale and trendy mall. It’s not very large but meets most shopping and dining needs. It features a pet shop, florist, dental and medical clinics, beauty and hair salons, and a tuition center. Hillview Market Place, the supermarket here, adds to the grocery shopping options.

The eateries at HillV2 offer a variety of cuisines, including Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Italian, and local fare. There’s also a Starbucks, a couple of bistros, and ice-cream parlors. The mall’s design creates a cozy and spacious atmosphere, making it a popular hangout spot for residents.

Nature and Outdoor Activities

What sets The Botany apart from other developments is its proximity to nature reserves and parks. Few places offer such quick access to a large nature park with cycling trails and walking paths, providing a great outdoor space for kids and promoting a healthier lifestyle.

Nearest MRT Station

The closest MRT station is Hillview on the Downtown Line, about a 10-minute walk down Dairy Farm Walk and Dairy Farm Road. While not extremely close, the Downtown Line is very useful. It connects to the Botanic Gardens (Circle Line), Newton, Bugis, Marina Bay, Fort Canning, Bedok, and ends at Changi.

Schools and Academic Institutions

The Downtown Line also provides access to the Bukit Timah education belt, which includes renowned schools like Nanyang Girls’ High, Methodist Girls’, National Junior College, Raffles Girls’, NUS (Bukit Timah Campus), Hwa Chong Institution, Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road), and Singapore Chinese Girls’ School.

Interestingly, it might be easier to secure a place in these schools compared to the popular ones in HDB areas due to lower housing density and less competition in the Bukit Timah area.

Accessibility

Drivers will find The Botany condo location convenient. It’s just a couple of minutes’ drive from Dairy Farm Road to the exit onto Bukit Timah Expressway. From there, you can head north to the Seletar Expressway (SLE) and Woodlands Causeway, or south to the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE).

The Myst condo is a new residential development located at 800 and 802 Upper Bukit Timah Road. It is being launched for sale by CDL Aries, a part of City Developments Singapore.

The project is situated in a mainly residential area and stands out for being quite close to an MRT station. It is about 450 meters, or a 6-minute walk, to Cashew station on the Downtown MRT Line via a sheltered footpath.

Additionally, the condo is near the Central Water Catchment area of Singapore, known for its reservoirs, lush greenery, and natural forests. The name “The Myst” is inspired by the misty mornings over Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.

The Myst Residences offers some open views to the north, west, and south. To the north, there are unobstructed views over low-rise buildings, the Rail Corridor, and greenery. To the south, the views include low-rise buildings and schools, with sightlines stretching to Dairy Farm Nature Park and Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. Higher floor units on the south side may have views of the greenery on Bukit Timah Hill and its nature reserves.

To the west/southwest, across Bukit Timah Road, is Bukit Gombak, another low-rise area that offers an open outlook.

Homes in this estate are appealing to buyers seeking a quieter, greener environment, providing a laid-back and relaxed atmosphere. Studies have shown that homes near the Central Catchment water bodies and parks are, on average, 2 degrees cooler than the rest of Singapore and benefit from fresher, less polluted air. This could attract future residents, especially considering rising global temperatures.

The residential blocks at The Myst condo use Brise Soleil to block sunlight and reduce heat inside the buildings. The exterior colors are neutral, with wood beiges and dark greys against ivory white backgrounds, giving a look of understated elegance.

All units face north-south to reduce heat gain and catch the prevailing winds. The two residential blocks are side by side, ensuring no overlap and maximizing privacy and views.

Seventy-five percent of the site is dedicated to landscaping and facilities, including two clubhouses. Service areas like M&E rooms and the bin center are hidden in the basement, and the tennis court is sunken to minimize noise.

The project has two entrance and exit points and two side gates, one of which leads to Cashew MRT station via a partly covered walkway.

Concierge services include arrival welcome and assistance, receiving deliveries, making reservations for facilities, hotels, restaurants, and transport, providing wet weather assistance, and helping with booking services like laundry, housekeeping, chef, pet grooming, and handyman services.

Myst Residences is conveniently located near various amenities.

 

 

It is about 500 meters, or a 6-minute walk via a footpath, to Hillion Mall at Bukit Panjang MRT station. Hillion Mall has a wide range of shops, including cafes, fast food outlets, restaurants, bakeries, a food court, a Fairprice supermarket, a bank, salons, clinics, pharmacies, and music schools.

In the other direction, it is also a 6-minute walk (partly sheltered) to Cashew MRT station, offering even more dining and shopping options.

One train stop south is Hillview station, which is a 5-minute walk from HillV2 and the unique Rail Mall. HillV2 is an upscale mall with F&B outlets, lifestyle shops, and a gourmet market. Rail Mall, with its rows of one-storey shophouses, features an eclectic mix of cafes and small shops.

Both HillV2 and Rail Mall provide an interesting change from typical shopping centers, offering pleasant places to hang out, like for afternoon tea or a chat with friends.

For serious shopping, the upcoming Reserve Mall, set to be completed in 2028, is the best option. Part of a mega integrated development at Beauty World along Upper Bukit Timah Road, it will connect directly to Beauty World MRT station via a pedestrian underpass. With over 200,000 sq ft of retail space across four floors, along with older shopping centers like Bukit Timah Plaza, Beauty World will become the retail heart of Bukit Timah.

Myst Residences also stands out for its outdoor options. A 15-minute walk south, past the MRT station, along a park connector, leads to Dairy Farm Nature Park and Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, which offer hiking and cycling trails for nature enthusiasts and green spaces for relaxation.

The Dairy Farm and Hillview areas have a higher-than-normal expatriate population, which could lead to healthy rental demand for homes in the area.

The Myst Site Plan

The Myst Singapore site is a pentagon-shaped, almost square, piece of land located off Upper Bukit Timah Road. On its north side, it borders an open space area and Fajar Secondary School.

To the east and south, it is adjacent to the Hazel Park condominium. The east side of Hazel Park has high-rise blocks, while the southern part near the Myst condo consists of low-rise buildings.

The west boundary borders a footpath next to a canal that runs parallel to the main road. This footpath allows residents to walk north to Hillion Mall and south to Cashew MRT station.

Across the canal and fronting Upper Bukit Timah Road is a narrow strip of old shophouses, which are unlikely to be built high in the future.

Thus, the site is relatively unblocked to the north, west, and south, offering potential greenery views, especially for south-facing units. Higher floor units on the south side might have views extending to Bukit Timah Hill and its nature reserves.

The main vehicular entrance to the site will be via a short lane directly from Upper Bukit Timah Road.

City Developments Pte Ltd (CDL)

City Developments Pte Ltd (CDL) is part of the Hong Leong Group, a diversified conglomerate with interests in various sectors. CDL was listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange in 1963, giving it a 60-year track record in property development, investment, and management. Over the years, CDL has developed an impressive portfolio of residential, commercial, and retail properties, hotels, and serviced suites.

CDL is considered one of Singapore’s most trusted and well-known developers, with a successful track record of over 48,000 homes in Singapore and other countries like Australia, China, Japan, and the UK. Some notable local projects include St Regis Residences, Nouvel 18, Boulevard 88, New Futura at Leonie Hill, Cliveden @ Grange, Gramercy Park, The Oceanfront @ Sentosa Cove, The Sail @ Marina Bay, The Pier at Robertson, Residences @ Evelyn, The Glyndebourne, Amber Park, Golden Hill Villas, and Goldenhill Park.

CDL has also developed several integrated projects, such as South Beach with South Beach Residences on Beach Road, Piccadilly Grand, and Canninghill Piers in collaboration with CapitaLand.

Over the years, City Developments Pte Ltd (CDL) has received numerous building awards and accolades. As of 2021, CDL is the only developer to have won the BCA’s Quality Excellence Award – Quality Champion (Platinum) – for nine consecutive years. This award recognizes developers and builders for their commitment to delivering high-quality homes with excellent workmanship. CDL is ranked as the top developer in BCA’s “Search for Quality Housing” online tool.

In addition, Euromoney’s 2020 Real Estate Survey named CDL as Singapore’s “Best Residential Real Estate Developer.”

CDL has also played a significant role in Singapore’s sustainability drive. Since 2022, the company has adopted a “Conserve as we Construct” approach, investing in resource efficiency and productivity innovations. This commitment has positioned CDL as a leader in sustainability, earning numerous awards for its “green” buildings.

CDL’s dedication to quality and sustainable development has reinforced its reputation as an industry leader.

Location

The Myst condo is located in the private residential Cashew and Hazel Park estate, which features a mix of landed houses and low to mid-rise condominiums. To the east, across the Bukit Timah Expressway, are Chestnut Nature Park and the Central Catchment Nature Reserve. To the south are Dairy Farm Nature Park and Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and Hill.

This residential enclave has been established for a long time. The landed homes here range from one to three storeys high in various styles. Given their proximity to nature reserves, the road names often have tree or “nut” themes, such as Hazel Park Terrace, Chestnut Crescent, Almond Avenue, and Cashew Road.

Amenities

The closest shopping and dining venue for residents is Hillion Mall, about a 6-minute walk along a footpath. This mall has a food court, fast food outlets, cafes, a Fairprice supermarket, and a range of shops and services.

For a different experience, residents can take a short ride to the HillV2 lifestyle mall or the vintage Rail Mall. HillV2 offers an interesting selection of shops and F&B outlets, including local, Italian, Korean, and Japanese cuisine, as well as bistros and ice-cream creameries. It also has a supermarket, Hillview Market Place, providing a change from usual grocery shopping trips. HillV2 has an upmarket, “hip & cool” vibe.

In contrast, the Rail Mall consists of old single-storey shops with an instagram-worthy facade, featuring a mix of shops, cafes, and bars in a quirky, laid-back environment. Both malls are popular hangouts for residents and visitors from surrounding estates and offices.

In the future, a major retail hub will develop around Beauty World station, two MRT stops down the Downtown Line. Currently, the area has a few old shopping centers, shophouses, and a market and food center. Bukit Timah Plaza has long been the main mall for Bukit Timah residents.

By 2028, the Reserve Mall integrated development at Beauty World is expected to be completed. It promises to become the main retail point of the Bukit Timah district, offering four floors of mall space spanning over 200,000 sq ft, directly connected to Beauty World station. Managed by Far East Organisation, it is likely to provide a comprehensive shopping experience.

Nearest MRT Station and Line

The nearest MRT station is Cashew station on the Downtown MRT Line, about 450 meters or a 6-minute walk via a footpath. The walk is pleasant, with no major roads to cross and a couple of open spaces along the way.

The Downtown Line is very convenient, passing through Bukit Timah with its many schools, the Botanic Gardens (which connects to the Circle Line), and on to Newton, Bugis, Marina Bay, Chinatown, and Tampines, ending at Changi.

 

Schools and Educational Institutions

The Downtown Line is also beneficial for families with children, as it passes through the Bukit Timah education belt. Bukit Timah is known for its highly-regarded schools such as Methodist Girls, Raffles Girls, Nanyang Girls High, NUS (Bukit Timah Campus), National Junior College, Hwa Chong Institution, Singapore Chinese Girls’ schools, and Anglo-Chinese Boys (Barker Road).

If you’re aiming for a place in a Bukit Timah primary school, it might be easier compared to getting a spot in a popular HDB heartland school due to lower housing density and less competition in Bukit Timah.

Nature and Leisure Activities

What sets the Myst location apart is its proximity to nature reserves and parks. Few places have as many large nature reserves nearby, offering walking paths and cycling trails, encouraging a healthier and more relaxed lifestyle amidst greenery.

Accessibility and Connectivity

The Myst condo location is very convenient. Besides being close to Cashew MRT station, it is also near the Bukit Timah Expressway (BKE). It’s a 2.5KM drive from the BKE, either via Bukit Panjang Road or Dairy Farm Road.

Once on the BKE, you can head north to join the Seletar Expressway or south to reach the PIE and the city.

Introducing Lumina Grand EC, a new executive condominium located in the northwest of Singapore, at the corner of Bukit Batok Road and Bukit Batok West Avenue 5, right across from the new town of Tengah.

Residents will enjoy the amenities of the established Bukit Batok HDB estate and benefit from the new features being developed in Tengah.

The name “Lumina” comes from the Latin word “Lumen,” meaning bright, reflecting its motto “Live Greener, Live Brighter.” This luxury EC is designed with advanced green and smart features.

The developer, CDL Zenith Pte Ltd, a subsidiary of City Developments Limited (CDL), plans to start Preview E-Applications and Sales in January 2024.

CDL is well-known for its quality projects, including several executive condos. Their last project, Copen Grand EC in Tengah, launched in October 2022 and sold out within a month.

This project is located in Bukit Batok HDB town, near its northwest border, very close to the new Tengah estate across Bukit Batok Road.

While the location isn’t very central or convenient, with no MRT stations or large shopping malls within walking distance, there are still nearby amenities. Just across Bukit Batok Road, at the Parc Residences precinct, there is a retail area with shops and food outlets. Another similar area is at the Plantation Village precinct. Additionally, the nearby Le Quest neighborhood mall has a Fairprice supermarket, a food court, shops, and clinics.

If you don’t mind a slightly longer walk, you can reach both Tengah Plantation and Tengah Park MRT stations on the Jurong Region Line on foot. Tengah Plantation station is a bit closer, about a 12 or 13-minute walk in a straight line.

To get there, walk through Parc Residences and follow the park connector that leads to the station. It’s a pleasant walk, with some parts sheltered and others offering greenery.

Alternatively, you can take a short bus ride to Bukit Gombak station on the North-South MRT Line.

One advantage of this location is its easy access to parks and the park connector network. Bukit Batok Hillside Park is just a five-minute walk east of the site. The park connector network also runs right across Bukit Batok Road. The Tengah estate is filled with green corridors, true to its “forest town” name.

A major draw for families with young children is the new Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) on Tengah Park Avenue, within a 1KM radius. This co-ed school is set to open around 2030, shortly after Lumina Grand is completed.

In addition to the new Tengah estate to the northwest, Bukit Batok also borders the Jurong Lake District to the southwest. Both are growing and developing areas.

The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) plans to make Tengah an innovative, sustainable “smart” forest town. It will be Singapore’s newest and most advanced estate, integrating native greenery into its design.

A 5km long, 100m wide forest corridor will run through Tengah, creating a biodiverse rainforest habitat with walking trails throughout the community. This will allow residents to enjoy nature and greenery up close.

Tengah is Singapore’s 24th HDB town, announced by the Ministry of National Development (MND) in 2016. Residents of Lumina Grand will benefit from the many new amenities and features this estate will offer.

The Jurong Lake District (JLD) and the nearby Jurong Innovation District (JID) have even more ambitious plans. URA’s vision for JLD is to become Singapore’s largest business hub outside the city center, creating a vibrant environment for work, play, living, and learning, along with tourism attractions in a lakeside park setting.

The Jurong Innovation District (JID) will be an advanced industrial, innovation, and manufacturing hub spanning 600 hectares. It is expected to create 95,000 jobs, increasing demand for housing and manpower.

Growing areas like these often offer better potential for capital appreciation. The Lumina Grand executive condo is well-positioned to benefit from this growth.

Lumina Grand EC Site Plan

The Lumina Grand site is a mid-sized L-shaped land parcel covering 178,937 square feet. It’s located at the corner of Bukit Batok Road and Bukit Batok West Avenue 5, positioned at a slight angle.

The site is mainly surrounded by other high-rise developments, both existing and planned, such as the new HDB flats at West Scape to its northeast.

Across the roads to the northwest and southwest are also HDB areas. Some, like West Edge, are already completed. Others, like Parc Residences, are still under construction, while the plot to the northwest is currently vacant.

One benefit of these high-rises is that they might block some of the afternoon sun from the west. The roads between the buildings also provide space and a bit of privacy.

On the southeast side, there is another executive condominium called Altura, which was launched for sale in August 2023. By September, Altura had sold 60% of its units, which is a positive sign for the upcoming launch of Lumina Grand EC.

The only side that offers a long-term open view is to the south, overlooking a school site across Avenue 5.

The most notable school is Anglo-Chinese (Primary) School, which will move to Tengah Park Avenue around 2030. This new location is also within 1 KM of Lumina Grand and will become co-ed, making it easier for siblings to attend. Other nearby educational institutions include Dulwich College and Millennia Institute.

Shops, Supermarkets, F&B, Banks

The Lumina Grand EC is not within walking distance to any major shopping centers. However, like most HDB estates, there are neighborhood shops and small shopping centers nearby.

Le Quest neighborhood mall is about 500m, or a 7-minute walk away, offering various shops and services, a food court, other F&B outlets, a Fairprice supermarket, and clinics. Across Bukit Batok Road, you can find HDB neighborhood F&B and retail options at Parc Residences and Plantation Village precincts.

Nearest MRT Station

The location is not very close to an MRT station. If you don’t mind a longer but pleasant walk, Tengah Plantation station on the Jurong Region Line is about 12 to 13 minutes away, partly through a park connector.

Alternatively, you can take a bus to the Bukit Gombak MRT station on the North-South line.

Parks & Leisure Options

The area offers quick access to park connectors and parks. Bukit Batok Hillside Park is within a 5-minute walk. Across Bukit Batok Road is Tengah, known as the “forest town” due to its many green corridors and park connectors. One of these connectors runs just opposite the site.

With enhanced green spaces, waterways, and new parks, residents can enjoy nature up close. These green and blue networks will also boost biodiversity in the area.

Accessibility

Lumina Grand has quick access to the island-wide expressway network. The nearest exit to the PIE (Pan-Island Expressway) is less than 3 KM down Bukit Batok Road. Alternatively, a 5 KM drive up Bukit Batok Road and via Bricklands Road leads to the Kranji Expressway.

Welcome to the launch of Hillhaven condo, a new residential project at Hillview Rise. This project is a collaboration between Far East Organisation and Sekisui House Singapore.

Hillview Rise is located in the Hillview estate, close to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, known for its lush greenery. This area is a private residential neighborhood undergoing significant growth and rejuvenation. Over the past ten years, developments like the HillV2 mall and several residential projects have been established. The most recent project, Midwood, launched in 2020 and sold out last year, with completion expected this year, 2023.

Hillhaven condo is situated next to the Hillview Community Club, directly opposite Midwood and HillV2 mall. It’s a 5-minute drive from the BKE and a 6-minute walk from Hillview station on the Downtown line.

The developer, Far East Organisation, is well-acquainted with the area, having developed The Hillier and HillV2 nearby. They also recently launched The Reserve Residences at Beauty World, one MRT stop away, and sold 80% of the units during the preview.

Mr. Marc Boey, an executive director at Far East Organisation, stated that for the partnership, this site represents “an excellent opportunity for the two of us to create another notable residential property project in the Upper Bukit Timah enclave.”

According to the architect, “Our design for Hillhaven draws inspiration from the nearby Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and other mature forests. We aim to capture the essence of the tropical rainforest’s beauty.”

The design incorporates the lush green canopy, the grandeur of tall forest trees, and the golden rays of sunlight filtering through the trees. This is reflected in the rich landscaping and natural sandy tones with champagne gold metallic accents.

Hillhaven will feature approximately 330 private homes, distributed across two 27-storey high buildings.

The neighborhood features a mix of condominiums and low-rise landed houses. Hillhaven is located just across from the landed homes on Elizabeth Drive and nearby lanes.

Most older condominiums in this area are not within a short walk to the Hillview MRT station. Only the sites clustered around HillV2 have that advantage.

The estate offers a calm and soothing atmosphere, likely due to its mix of landed houses and abundant greenery. It is surrounded by parks and nature reserves, including Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Dairy Farm Nature Park, and Upper Pierce Reservoir. To the west, you’ll find Bukit Batok Nature Park and Bukit Gombak’s “Little Guilin.”

HillV2, located opposite Hillhaven condominium, is an upscale mall. It has cafes and restaurants in two floors, a Cold Storage supermarket, lifestyle shops, and various services. Similar to the nearby Rail Mall, HillV2 has become a popular hangout spot for residents in the upper Bukit Timah area and is a convenient place for families to grab a meal.

Interestingly, HillV2 and its condo, The Hillier, were also developed by Far East Organisation. This means the developer is familiar with the area and understands its features well.

Hillhaven Site Plan

The Hillhaven site is a roughly rectangular plot along Hillview Rise, next to Hillview Community Club. It’s located in the private Hillview residential estate, which includes older condominiums on Hillview Avenue and the Hillview Garden landed housing estate between Elizabeth Drive and Hillview Crescent.

The site is almost, but not quite, facing directly north-south. Directly to the north, across Hillview Rise, are HillV2 and the newly completed Midwood condominium. Both are about the same height as the future Hillhaven condo, so views in this direction will be partial, between the buildings.

To the east of the site is the low-rise Hillview Community Club, offering a more open view in that direction. However, beyond that is Hillview Avenue and Hillview Heights condominium, allowing possible partial views towards Dairy Farm Nature Park and even Bukit Timah Hill.

The best views will likely be on the south side of the site. The land immediately to the south is designated for educational use and will probably be no taller than five or six storeys. Beyond that are Elizabeth Drive and the low-rise Hillview Garden housing estate, providing unobstructed views from the higher floors all the way to the greenery of Bukit Batok Town Park.

To the west of the site is currently empty land, which is planned for future residential development.

The two towers at Hillhaven are positioned side by side to minimize units overlooking each other, enhancing privacy and views. The site design also minimizes the building footprint, leaving more space for landscaping, facilities, and gardens.

Developer

The Hillhaven Singapore is a joint development by Far East Organization and Sekisui House. Together, they have successfully launched and delivered many high-quality residential projects over the years.

Far East Organization (FEO)

Founded in 1960, Far East Organization is one of Asia’s largest real estate companies along with its Hong Kong-based sister company Sino Group. They have several development and investment branches operating in Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, China, and Malaysia.

FEO develops, owns, and manages a wide range of properties, including commercial, residential, retail, healthcare, and industrial sectors. As the largest private property company in Singapore, FEO has significantly contributed to the transformation of Singapore’s skyline.

To date, FEO has been involved in over 780 projects, providing more than 55,000 homes, which equates to almost one in every six private homes in Singapore. Some of their recent projects include The Reserve Residences, One Holland Village, The Scotts Tower, Alba @ Cairnhill, Skyline @ Orchard Boulevard, Cyan, Altez, and the upcoming Amber Sea at East Coast.

FEO is also Singapore’s largest private residential landlord, with a significant portion of its annual income derived from rentals. The organization is dedicated to delivering homes that enhance the quality of life for its residents, earning 11 FIABCI World Prix d’Excellence awards, the highest honor in international real estate.

Sekisui House

Established in 1960, Sekisui House is one of Japan’s largest and most reputable design and construction companies. It has built over two million homes across Japan and worldwide. In Singapore, Sekisui House has partnered with local developers like Frasers Centrepoint and FEO on several projects, including One Holland Village, Watertown, Woods Square, Rivertrees Residences, Seaside Residences, and eCo at Tanah Merah.

Location

The Hillhaven condo is located in Hillview, Upper Bukit Timah. This area is well-known for its proximity to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and Bukit Timah Hill.

Hillview is a long-established private residential estate with a mix of condominiums and freehold landed homes. It has a laid-back charm, thanks to its surrounding greenery and mostly low-rise buildings.

Shops, Supermarket, F&B, Services

Just across from Hillhaven is the upscale HillV2 mall, which meets most shopping and dining needs. With cafes, coffee shops, restaurants, and bistros, it’s a popular hangout for local residents. Despite its small size, HillV2 covers all the basics. Dining options include local, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese cuisine. For socializing, there’s a Starbucks, an ice-cream shop, and a few bistros. Grocery needs are met by a CS (Cold Storage) Fresh supermarket. Additional services include a medical clinic, a dentist, a florist, a pet shop, hair salons, and a children’s enrichment center.

For those willing to walk 10 to 15 minutes, the Rail Mall across Bukit Timah Road offers a more colorful setting with more shops and food choices, including a popular prata place.

Nearest MRT Station

The Hillhaven condo is about 400 meters, or a 5-minute walk, from Hillview MRT station on the Downtown Line. This line runs through Bukit Timah, past the Botanic Gardens and Newton, and continues to Bugis and Bayfront, then turns around to Fort Canning and heads east to Tampines.

Along the route, it intersects with:

• The future Cross-Island Line at King Albert Park
• The Circle Line at Botanic Gardens
• The Thomson-East Coast Line at Stevens
• The North-South Line at Newton
• The North-East Line at Little India
• The East-West Line at Bugis

This means any part of Singapore reachable by the subway is no more than one transfer away.

Newton is just 7 stations from Hillview, approximately a 15-minute train ride. So, getting to Orchard Road would take about 20 to 25 minutes in total.

Additionally, the footpath from Hillview Road to the station is sheltered, making the walk more pleasant in both sunny and rainy weather.

Schools & Tertiary Institutions

Nearby schools include Assumption English School and CHIJ Our Lady Queen of Peace.

The Downtown MRT line passes through the Bukit Timah education belt, which features several well-regarded schools such as Methodist Girls’ School at Blackmore Drive, Nanyang Girls’ High School, Raffles Girls’ Primary School, National Junior College, Hwa Chong Institution, NUS (Bukit Timah Campus), Singapore Chinese Girls’ School, and Anglo-Chinese Primary School (Barker Road).

Leisure / Outdoor Activities

One of Hillview’s most appealing features is its abundance of parks and nature reserves. These areas not only provide fresh air and a relaxed atmosphere but also offer hiking and cycling trails for a healthier lifestyle.

Even if you aren’t into vigorous exercise, the surrounding greenery creates a pleasant, family-friendly environment.

Studies have shown that temperatures around Singapore’s central catchment area are 2 degrees cooler than in built-up areas. In the face of global warming, every degree lower helps.

Accessibility / Expressways

From Hillhaven condo, a 5-minute drive along Hillview Road and Dairy Farm Road takes you to the Bukit Timah Expressway (BKE). The BKE runs north to Woodlands and the Seletar Expressway (SLE), and south to the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE).

Hillview is a 20 to 25 minute drive from Orchard Road and the Central Business District (CBD). It is also about a 15-minute drive from the Jurong Lake District, which is set to become Singapore’s second CBD.
