Sceneca Residence

Sceneca-Residence-Overview

Sceneca Residence is a new housing development located right in front of Tanah Merah MRT station. It features private apartments with shared facilities and has commercial space on the ground floor.

The ground floor will have retail units covering up to 2,000 square meters. Of this, at least 1,000 square meters (about 10,700 square feet) will be dedicated to a supermarket.

Residents will have direct access to the MRT station, offering convenient connections to train networks, groceries, food, and shops. This makes for an easy and comfortable lifestyle.

The site is located in a private residential area, surrounded by other condos and low-rise houses, giving it an exclusive feel.

The project is being developed by MCC Land (Singapore) Pte Ltd, who successfully launched and sold out Provence Residence EC in early 2021.

Located in a well-established private housing area off New Upper Changi Road, the Sceneca Residence enjoys a breezier environment. It is within walking distance of amenities like the Bedok Sports & Fitness Center.

The development offers a direct sheltered walkway to Tanah Merah MRT station right at its doorstep. Such convenient sites are rare because there’s limited land around stations, and most are already developed.

Sceneca-Residence-MRT link

The connectivity is excellent. Tanah Merah station is an interchange for the Changi Airport Line and the East-West Line, making travel easy. It’s one train stop to Bedok Town Centre, the Changi International Business Park, and the Singapore University of Technology & Design (SUTD).

The station is also just two stops from Changi International Airport, including Jewel. It takes 22 minutes on a direct train ride via the East-West line to reach the CBD & Marina Bay Financial Centre.

The site is within 2 kilometers of the beaches and leisure activities at East Coast Park, making it very convenient. This location could be attractive to investors and parents looking for a safe home for their families. Additionally, there’s likely to be rental demand from professionals working nearby at Changi Business Park, logistics and industrial hubs, and the airport.

The project’s design will feature plenty of greenery, including on the building’s facade and facility decks. The focus will be on eco-friendly design and sustainability. Cars will access the site via Tanah Merah Kechil Link, a low-traffic road within the estate.

The commercial area will include a supermarket, retail shops, and food and beverage outlets. These shops can also be used for medical or dental clinics, fitness centers, gyms, or commercial schools.

Activities that could disturb residents, such as karaoke lounges, bars, pubs, or night clubs, will not be allowed by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA).

URA guidelines require that all commercial units, along with common spaces and walkways, be owned as a single strata lot. This is beneficial for the project, as a single owner can ensure a good mix of retail options and maintain the area well.

There are several reasons why demand for this project looks promising.

Sceneca-Residence-nature

Firstly, there is little to no competition for new units in the neighborhood. All other projects in this residential area have sold out long ago. The last one, Grandeur Park Residences, launched in 2017 and sold out its 720 units by 2020. Before that, The Glades launched in 2013. This suggests there may be pent-up demand for new units.

Regarding future supply, this is the second last plot of land available near Tanah Merah MRT station. While there is one more piece of land across New Upper Changi Road, it’s unlikely that the URA will release it for sale soon. There has been no indication of when that might happen. Typically, there is a lag of at least a couple of years from when a site is listed for sale to when units become available to the public. Based on past trends, it could be a 4 to 5 year wait.

Additionally, Sceneca Residence is a relatively small project with fewer than 300 units for sale, so finding enough buyers shouldn’t be a major issue.

Moreover, this project is a mixed development and is the most conveniently located. It is the closest to the station, with direct sheltered access to it and to the shops on the ground level.

All these factors suggest that there might be a strong response to the launch.

Floor Plans

Sceneca Residence Site Plan

The Sceneca Residence site is almost rectangular, with an indentation to accommodate the entrance B link to Tanah Merah MRT station. It is bordered by roads on two sides.

To the south, it faces New Upper Changi Road and the MRT station. Since the East-West MRT line runs above ground, there will be some train noise, but buffers are planned to reduce it.

Sceneca-Residence-Siteplan 1

The north side of the site is bordered by Tanah Merah Kechil Link, a small lane serving nearby condominiums. This side is quieter and more open, especially towards the west, where it faces the facilities at East Meadows, providing an unblocked view.

The main entrance and vehicular access to Sceneca Residence will be via Tanah Merah Kechil Link.

Sceneca-Residence-Siteplan 2

To the west and east are two other condominiums, Urban Vista and Optima @ Tanah Merah. Sceneca Residence is the last empty land parcel in this area.

Currently, there is a covered walkway running across the land, connecting Tanah Merah Kechil Link with New Upper Changi Road. This walkway will be enhanced and integrated into the ground-level commercial space.

These areas are managed by MCC Land (Singapore) Limited, China Jingye Engineering Corporation Limited (Singapore Branch), China Jingye Construction Engineering (Singapore) Private Limited, and MCC Bina Sdn Bhd.

MCC Singapore has been involved in various projects ranging from public infrastructure and large-scale entertainment parks to structural steel works, project management, and real estate development.

MCC Land (Singapore) Limited (“MCC Land”)

Since its inception in 2010, MCC Land (Singapore) has been active in property development. The company has co-developed two projects, developed five on its own, and managed five others.

MCC Land has been ranked among Singapore’s top ten real estate developers for three consecutive years and has received the “Asia’s Top Influential Brands” award.

Location

Sceneca Residence is located within a private housing estate in the Bedok Planning Area, along New Upper Changi Road. It is surrounded by other mid-rise condominiums and low-rise landed homes. The site is conveniently situated right in front of the Tanah Merah MRT interchange station.

Nearest MRT Station

Location is crucial for property investment, and having an MRT station right at your doorstep makes Sceneca Residence a very attractive option. The East-West line, which the station serves, connects Changi Airport in the east to the Jurong Lake District in the west, passing through key areas like Paya Lebar, Kallang, the CBD, and Marina Bay. A train ride from Sceneca Residence to the town center takes just 20 to 25 minutes.

F&B Outlets, Groceries, and Shops

Residents will enjoy the convenience of having shops and food outlets on the first floor of Sceneca Residence, including a supermarket. Additionally, neighborhood shops, markets, and food centers, such as those at East Village and Bedok Market, are within a 10-minute walk. For major shopping centers, residents can take a short ride to Bedok Mall (one train stop away), Jewel at Changi Airport, or Tampines Town Centre (two train stops away).

Sceneca-Residence-Map

Lifestyle Amenities

Bedok Stadium, Sports Hall, and Tennis Centre are about a 10-minute walk from Sceneca Residence. East Coast Park, with its beaches, cycling and jogging paths, and food centers, is just a 5 to 10-minute drive away.

Schools

There are three primary schools within a 1 KM radius: Bedok Green, Temasek, and St Anthony’s Canossian. Within a 2 KM radius, there are also Red Swastika and Yu Neng primary schools. Nearby educational institutions include Temasek Junior College and the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD).

Sceneca-Residence-Connect

Rental Pools

From an investment perspective, potential rental demand could come from nearby business and technology parks and commercial hubs, such as the Changi International Business Park, Singapore Expo, and Tampines Regional Centre.

The Landmark

The Landmark Featured Image

The-Landmark-OverviewIntroducing The Landmark, a new high-rise residential development with 396 units, set to launch for sale in mid-November 2020. It will be located on the site of the former Landmark Tower on Chin Swee Road.

The Landmark condo is a project by Landmark JV, a joint venture between ZACD Group, SSLE Development, and Singapore-based MCC Land.

This 99-year leasehold development will be situated on Pearl’s Hill City Park, between Outram and Havelock, near the Central Business District (CBD).

The Landmark will consist of a single 39-storey tower with a variety of unit types, including one to three-bedroom apartments. The sizes range from 495 sq ft for the smallest unit to around 1,141 sq ft for the largest.

The-Landmark-pool

Thanks to its elevated location, The Landmark will offer unobstructed views of the park and city skyline. The developers selected this site to provide residents with a unique combination of urban living and proximity to nature.

Few projects in space-constrained Singapore can boast such extensive greenery and open views, especially so close to the city center.

The design is by Swan & Maclaren, Singapore’s oldest architectural firm with a long history of successful projects.

The main downside is that there isn’t an MRT station right next door. The closest one is probably Chinatown station, which you can reach in about 7 to 8 minutes by walking through Pearl’s Hill Park and down Upper Cross Street.

If you don’t mind a slightly longer walk, Clarke Quay station and Clarke Quay itself are about 11 to 12 minutes away. Outram Park station is also nearby, about the same distance by the main road. You can get there faster by cutting through Pearl’s Hill southwards, especially if you use the nearest entrance of the Thomson-East Coast MRT Line (TEL).

Outram Park station is one of the few triple-line interchange stations, connecting the East-West, North-East, and Thomson-East Coast lines, providing great flexibility. This stage of the Thomson line is expected to open in 2021, before The Landmark condo is completed.

The-Landmark-places 1

This means residents will have a direct line to the Raffles Place/Marina Bay business district in the south and Orchard Road in the north, within 3 to 4 stops.

The closest comparison is probably One Pearl Bank, located on the other side of Pearl’s Hill City Park. This 99-year leasehold project launched in July 2019.

By November 2019, One Pearl Bank had sold 242 units at an average price of $2,387 per square foot (PSF). One Pearl Bank benefits from being closer to Outram Park MRT station.

However, The Landmark condo is expected to offer more competitive pricing, making it a good option for cost-conscious buyers. It still enjoys the same attractive location features that made One Pearl Bank a hit in 2019.

The-Landmark-places 2

In addition to its proximity to the CBD, The Landmark is near the Singapore River, Robertson Quay, Chinatown, and Tiong Bahru. These areas are known for their vibrant dining and nightlife scenes.

The Singapore General Hospital (SGH) is also nearby. There is a 20-year master plan to expand SGH into a larger medical complex, creating a major healthcare hub.

This proximity to the future SGH campus is likely to attract investors, as it will provide a strong potential tenant pool of medical professionals and healthcare staff.

The Landmark Site Plan

The Landmark site is an irregularly shaped piece of land fronting Chin Swee Road. It is nestled against Pearl’s Hill, with Pearl’s Hill City Park surrounding it from the east to the south.

This location offers expansive open views, at least 180° wide. Lower floor units facing this direction can enjoy the greenery of the park, with views of bushes and treetops. Higher floor units have distant views, stretching over the rooftops of Chinatown to the CBD city skyline and beyond.

The-Landmark-Sitemap 1 The-Landmark-Sitemap 2

Even on the north and northwest sides, there are relatively open views, facing the road with the CTE tunnel below. High floor units on this side may have glimpses of Robertson Quay and River Valley.

Overall, the nighttime views are quite impressive.

The Botany at Dairy Farm

The Botany at Dairy Farm Featured Image

The-Botany-Overview

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.

The-Botany-Map

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.

The-Botany-Map 2

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.

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.

The-Botany-Siteplan

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.

The-Botany-Location

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).

Midtown Bay Condo

Midtown Bay Featured Image

midtown-bay-overview

The Midtown Bay condo is a part of the new S$2.4 billion Guoco Midtown development, located in a vibrant and growing area of Singapore’s Beach Road. This mixed-use project will feature a total floor area of 950,500 sq ft, including 770,000 sq ft of Grade-A office space, 32,000 sq ft for entertainment and retail, and over 200 residences in Midtown Bay.

According to GuocoLand, Guoco Midtown will complete the transformation of the Beach Road area. The development will offer views of Kallang Basin, Orchard Road, Marina Bay, and the sea. GuocoLand has a history of successful projects, like the Tanjong Pagar Centre, which improved the Tanjong Pagar District.

Raymond Choong, GuocoLand’s president and CEO, aims to redefine the Beach Road area with innovative office, retail, and residential spaces. The project will also conserve and restore the historic 1934 Beach Road Police Station, adding a touch of history to the modern development.

Additionally, the Midtown Bay condo will have an underground pedestrian link connecting directly to Bugis MRT station, just 200 meters or a 3-minute walk away.

Recent mixed developments like South Beach Towers and DUO have brought new life and excitement to the Bugis district. Similarly, Midtown is planned as a unique and groundbreaking development that will enhance and complete the transformation of the area into a prime business and tourism spot.

GuocoLand is creating a cutting-edge project that will set a new standard for the location. They are using their experience from the Tanjong Pagar Centre and combining it with top-notch architectural design, environmental sustainability, and efficiency to develop Midtown Bay, catering to the growing “work-live-play” lifestyle trend.

midtown-bay-life

Guoco Midtown and Midtown Bay aim to be “future-ready” and “best-in-class,” fully utilizing the large site and offering panoramic views of Marina Bay and Kallang Basin.

GuocoLand, along with its parent company Guoco Group, acquired this prime mixed-use site opposite Suntec City and along Beach Road for SGD$1.62 billion. Their subsidiaries, GLL Prosper and GLL Thrive, won the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) tender as the top bidder on October 3, 2017.

Developer

Midtown Bay Singapore is being developed by GuocoLand Limited, a subsidiary of the Hong Leong Group and one of Singapore’s most reputable real estate developers.

GuocoLand Limited

GuocoLand is renowned for its eco-friendly projects and has received multiple awards for environmental sustainability, such as the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) Green Mark Awards. Some of their award-winning projects include Wallich Residence, Goodwood Residence, Leedon Residence, The Quartz, Sims Urban Oasis, Sophia Residence, Elliot at East Coast, and The Waterline.

In addition to environmental awards, GuocoLand has earned numerous other accolades both locally and internationally, including the FIABCI Property Awards, International Property Awards, South East Asia Property Awards, and BCI Asia Awards.

Listed on the Singapore Exchange since 1978, GuocoLand Limited (“GuocoLand”) is a regional real estate company operating in Singapore, Vietnam, China, and Malaysia. In 2017, it expanded into Australia and the United Kingdom through a strategic partnership with Eco World Development Group Berhad.

Headquartered in Singapore, GuocoLand and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) focus on property investment, development, management, and hotel operations. The Group’s portfolio includes residential, commercial, hospitality, and integrated developments across the region. In Singapore alone, GuocoLand has developed and sold 35 projects, totaling around 10,000 residential apartments and homes.

One of their flagship projects, Tanjong Pagar Centre, is a mixed-use development similar to Midtown. It features the 5-star hotel Sofitel Singapore City Centre, luxury apartments at Wallich Residence, Grade A offices at Guoco Tower, lifestyle retail and F&B spaces, and a landscaped urban park.

GuocoLand has also developed a significant portfolio of properties in major Chinese cities such as Beijing, Nanjing, Shanghai, and Tianjin. Additionally, its subsidiary, GuocoLand (Malaysia) Berhad, has developed community-centered townships and prime commercial properties in Malaysia.

Location

Midtown Bay is situated in the heart of Singapore’s Downtown Core, right across Nicoll Highway from Suntec City and close to the financial districts of Shenton Way and Marina Bay. The site is bordered by Beach Road to the northwest, Rochor Road to the northeast, and Nicoll Highway to the southeast. This prestigious address is surrounded by notable developments like South Beach Towers, Duo, and The Gateway.

Shops, Dining, Supermarkets, Banks

Guoco Midtown itself has retail spaces, and the surrounding area offers an abundance of shopping, dining, banking, and entertainment options. Nearby is the massive Suntec City Mall and Marina Square. On the other side, Bugis Junction is accessible via an underground pedestrian link. Additionally, the area is rich in local culture with old shophouses along Beach Road, offering traditional hawker fare.

Nearest MRT Station

Midtown Bay will have a 200-meter underground pedestrian link to Bugis MRT station on the East-West Line, about a 3-minute walk. Alternatively, it’s an 8-minute walk (520 meters) past South Beach to Esplanade MRT station on Bras Basah Road, on the Circle Line.

Accessibility

Midtown Bay is easily accessible from the expressway network, just off the Rochor Road exit from the ECP (East Coast Parkway). While Rochor Road is a one-way street, you can loop around to Ophir Road to get back on the ECP. The location is approximately 20 minutes from Changi Airport, with a slightly shorter trip coming into the city.
