While we focused on units with swoon-worthy balconies last week, we’re expanding our list to include units with private pools.
For those who love hosting parties in the comfort of their home, a pool often makes all the difference in setting the mood. For this week’s list, we have picked out 5 freehold condos under $2.3M that would make the perfect party setting.

138 I Suites






$1,280,000
Address: | 38 Ipoh Lane 438646 |
---|---|
Tenure: | Freehold |
Size: | 1,066 sqft |
$PSF: | $1,200.75 PSF |
Developer: | Sustained Land Pte Ltd |
TOP: | 2014 |
Why I like it
Sized at 1,066 square feet, this unit has a rather simple layout with 1 bedroom, 1 study room and a bathroom that connects those two rooms together in a jack-and-jill manner.
Undoubtedly, the main highlight of this penthouse unit is its roof terrace and the private pool that is surprisingly rather spacious. Owners can easily fit a simple lounge spot on their private patio for intimate parties and gatherings. Adding to the outdoor space available, there’s also a balcony with unblocked views of the Paya Lebar neighbourhood, which is always a plus point.
Those who prefer a more private development might appreciate that there are only 120 units.
To me, its location is also very ideal. There are numerous shopping malls such as KINEX, Paya Lebar Square and SingPost Centre nearby. With that being said, it’s around a 14-minute walk to Paya Lebar MRT (East-West line and Circle line) and Dakota MRT (Circle line) stations. Alternatively, Haig Road Market and Food Centre is a quick 5-minute walk away for more affordable and convenient dining and grocery shopping options.
However, it is its vicinity to the Joo Chiat shophouses and cafes that make living in this location special. It is around a 6-minute walk away from famous cafes such as Tiong Bahru Bakery and Wunderfolks, which completely adds to the character of the neighbourhood.

28M Residences






$2,200,000
Address: | 8 Margate Road 438049 |
---|---|
Tenure: | Freehold |
Size: | 1,324 sqft |
$PSF: | $1,661.63 PSF |
Developer: | Gcap Properties Pte Ltd |
TOP: | 1985 |
Why I like it
8M Residences offers a rather sizeable unit at 1,324 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. In terms of location, this development is great for outdoor lovers since it is less than a 15-minute walk to East Coast Park and a short walk to Geylang Park Connector which leads residents to the Singapore Sports Hub, Gardens by the Bay and Marina Barrage.
One of the key pain points for this location is its lack of direct access to public transport options. However, the announcement of Katong Park MRT (Thomson-East Coast line) which is estimated to be completed in 2024 is just a 4-minute walk away from 8M Residences would make a big difference to the liveability in the area.
This is a great spot for young families with schooling children since great schools like Dunman High School and Chung Cheng High School are a short distance away. Not only that, the Singapore Swimming Club is also located nearby.
The unit itself has squarish layouts to maximise space usage and the pool is of a decent size for young families to lounge in. The surrounding area is rather serene and breezy for a peaceful home setting.

3Bliss Loft







$1,490,000
Address: | 25 Kim Keat Close 328933 |
---|---|
Tenure: | Freehold |
Size: | 1,399 sqft |
$PSF: | $1,065.05 PSF |
Developer: | Oxley Hume Investment |
TOP: | 2009 |
Why I like it
Located near the Novena area, this 1,399 square feet unit has been recently renovated with mostly neutral designs and many tasteful corners, which would save the next owners quite a fair bit on renovation costs.
It has a long hallway with bay windows that allow ample natural lighting and unblocked views of the neighbourhood. With two bedrooms and a bathroom, it’s a great space for a small family or ideally a couple to call home. The living and dining area also receives a lot of sunlight given the full-height windows, though my highlight would have to be the private pool that has really great views of the city – something that would be very nice especially during the night time.
Bliss Loft is located directly beside Whampoa Food Centre for affordable dining options, topped off with other eateries located in shophouses along Balestier Road. Zhongshan Mall is about a 10-minute walk away.

4Suites @ Shrewsbury






$1,380,000
Address: | 84 Shrewsbury Road 307842 |
---|---|
Tenure: | Freehold |
Size: | 818 sqft |
$PSF: | $1,687.04 PSF |
Developer: | Macly Capital Pte Ltd |
TOP: | 2013 |
Why I like it
For those who enjoy hosting gatherings at home, this unit offers owners a great balance between privacy and ample space.
At 818 square feet, the master bedroom is located on the upper floor with the pool and jacuzzi with a private pool deck. On the other hand, the entirety of the lower floor is catered to the living, dining and study area, along with a balcony to enjoy unblocked views of the Novena neighbourhood. I appreciate that there are numerous glass windows in the stairwell connecting the two floors for ample natural light to filter into the house.
The nearest MRT station is at Novena (North-South and Downtown line) which is located just a brisk 10-minute walk away. With that being said, it is near malls such as Velocity, United Square and Square 2.
I do like the fact that it’s a rather family-friendly area since there are multiple schools nearby, such as St. Joseph Institution and Anglo-Chinese School.

5Suites @ Topaz





$1,830,000
Address: | 3 Topaz Road 327849 |
---|---|
Tenure: | Freehold |
Size: | 1,464 sqft |
$PSF: | $1,250.00 PSF |
Developer: | Goodland Development Pte. Ltd. |
TOP: | 2013 |
Why I like it
In terms of generous outdoor space, I’d say that this unit might just take the cake.
With 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 balconies, ample roof garden and private pool space, it is 1,467 square feet big – especially great for those who appreciate alfresco living. The rooms are also sufficiently spacious, which is great for a couple or a small family to live in. It’s also facing the Kallang River, which adds on to the entire ambience of the development.
Just under 10-minute walk would get residents to Potong Pasir MRT Station (North-East line) and dining and shopping options at The Poiz Centre. Alternatively, there are a handful of eateries just below the development along Opal Crescent, The Venue Shoppes and Tai Thong Crescent.
Outdoor lovers might also appreciate the location since it is a short walking distance to Kallang Park Connector, which is also connected to Kallang Riverside Park. Most notably, it is located just across St. Andrew’s Junior School.
