Why I like it

Daisy Suites offers a balance for homeowners seeking a bit of everything: a peaceful neighbourhood, proximity to an MRT station, and a location that’s just a short walk from amenities and scenic green trails.

Woodleigh MRT Station (North-East Line), Woodleigh Village Hawker Centre, and The Woodleigh Mall are all within a 9-minute walk. For those willing to venture a little further, Serangoon MRT Station (North-East and Circle Lines) and NEX mall are about a 17-minute walk in the opposite direction. 

Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby Bidadari Park and Alkaff Lake, while families with school-going children will also value its location within a 1–2 km radius of sought-after schools like Paya Lebar Methodist Girls’ School, Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Primary School, and Pei Chun Public School.

This freehold 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit spans 798 square feet, featuring a dumbbell layout. While compact, the unit includes features like a home shelter (accessible from the common bedroom), a living and dining area, and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom connecting to the master bedroom.

Why I like it

City Studios sits just 3 minutes from Farrer Park MRT (North-East Line) and 8 minutes from Little India MRT (Downtown and North-East Lines) - so this is as convenient as they come. 

Nearby landmarks include Mustafa Centre, City Square Mall, and a park connector leading to Kallang Riverside Park. However, the area is best known for its wide variety of eateries found along the shophouses close by.  For families, City Studios is within a 1-km radius of the popular St. Margaret’s Primary School. 

This 1,023-square-foot freehold penthouse features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a squarish layout. The lower floor houses the common bedroom, a bathroom, and a dining area with double-height ceilings. The kitchen layout offers the flexibility to be enclosed.

The upper level, accessed via a spiral staircase, includes the master bedroom and an ensuite that opens to a private pool, jacuzzi, and pool deck.

Why I like it

With Stevens MRT (Downtown & Thomson-East Coast lines) just 5 minutes away, Robin Suites is in a convenient spot. Orchard MRT is a single stop away, and Balmoral Plaza is within a 15-minute walk for everyday needs (NTUC and several food joints). Families will also value the proximity to reputable schools like Singapore Chinese Girls’ School and Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) although this probably isn't well suited for even a small family.

This 861-square-foot penthouse keeps it simple with a 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the balcony on the lower level and a rooftop terrace with a private pool above. The staircase connecting the two is located outside, which may be a downside for some.

Why I like it

If you’re looking for a practical apartment with the bonus of a private pool, this unit at The Luxurie offers plenty to consider. Situated just across from Sengkang MRT Station (North-East Line) and Compass One, it’s hard to beat the convenience for daily commutes and access to amenities. You’re also a 10-minute walk or a quick MRT ride away from Buangkok MRT and Sengkang Grand Mall, with Rivervale Plaza about 15 minutes on foot for even more options.

Families will find the proximity to Nan Chiau Primary School (within 1 km) particularly appealing. Meanwhile, nature enthusiasts can enjoy Sengkang Neighbourhood Park and the nearby park connector, which leads to scenic spots like Punggol Promenade and Coney Island.

This ground-floor unit spans 1,690 square feet and includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a WC. Its standout feature is a spacious patio with a private pool. Inside, the layout feels practical, with clearly defined living and dining areas and a decent sized kitchen that’s thoughtfully designed.

Why I like it

Tanjong Pagar MRT Station (East-West Line) is an 8-minute walk from Eon Shenton, but the real game-changer will be the upcoming Prince Edward MRT Station (Circle Line), set to open in 2026 right across the road. For those who appreciate a good view, this unit offers glimpses of the city skyline, and certain parts of the development even offer views of the sea near Tanjong Pagar Terminal.

At 1,087 square feet, this penthouse is a decent size. The lower floor houses two bedrooms and one bathroom, while the upper level is dedicated to a private pool. The open-concept kitchen complements the contemporary vibe but can be enclosed if preferred.
