In this week’s episode, we explore the biggest, and most expensive home we’ve ever toured to date on our channel. 

Spanning 11,012 sqft, this $60.6m super triplex penthouse is set atop the 53rd story of Marina Bay Residences, featuring five bedrooms, a 25-meter private lap pool, and an entire open roof deck.

Shortlists like this are a useful starting point, but the units that make the list aren't necessarily the ones that make the most sense for your budget, lifestyle or long-term plans.

The harder part comes afterwards: comparing the trade-offs, evaluating the numbers, and deciding which home is actually the best fit for your situation.

Over time, that's also why we decided to work with agents who shared the same data-driven and advisory-led approach behind our editorial, consultants who could help readers think through decisions more objectively, rather than simply push transactions.

Today, the team has worked with more than 2,000 clients across over $5B in property transactions.

In fact, this unit is just one of three penthouses in all of Singapore with an unblocked panorama of the bay area. It also boasts views over the CBD skyline on one side, as well as the meandering Singapore River down below.

This voluminous living space certainly establishes an immediate sense of grandeur, and is perfect for hosting large social gatherings.

It’s also worth noting that the unit was left intentionally empty, allowing the next occupant to fully customize the home to their needs. 

Continuing on, we discover the dining area - again with captivating views over the bay and the iconic Marina Bay Sands.

A dry kitchen is set to the side, and it could easily double as a bar counter.

The wet kitchen is situated further down. It’s well-lit, and set in a spacious galley layout, with direct access to an open terrace, providing glimpses of the Singapore Straits.

Moving on, a passageway leads to the family room, connecting the penthouse's five bedrooms while ensuring a private retreat from the main common areas. The bedroom wing comprises generously sized rooms, each revealing stunning views of the water.

It can be combined with the adjacent room (also an ensuite) to create a seamless open floor plan with a walk-in wardrobe and a lounge area. 

The master bath features dual sinks, a bathtub, a separate shower area, and even a sauna.

Round-ups like this are a good place to start a shortlist, but the real work begins when you start comparing the final few options, looking beyond the headline criteria to decide which property is the best fit for your own situation.
