Is This One Of The Most Tranquil Landed Estates In Singapore? A Review Of Swiss View (Prices From $4.25M)


TJ's interest in property was sparked after returning from the UK- where balconies are not counted in one's square footage!- and finding that the Singapore property had totally changed in the 7 years she was away.

A while ago, I saw a beautiful apartment on Stacked located in the condo, La Suisse II, which piqued my interest in the area. (It looked so peaceful and beautiful!) When I checked it out on the map, I realised that there were some terrace houses next to the development, so off I went for a walkabout!

Here’s a map of the area, for your reference. As shown above, there are 2 condo developments here – La Suisse, and La Suisse II. In addition, the estate is parallel to the PIE, so I was a little concerned about the noise levels.

I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the area wasn’t as noisy as I had expected it to be. For the photo above, I’m standing on the main road, looking out to the PIE (you see mostly trees and not the road from street level.) I can hear a bit of road noise, but nothing too distracting. If you live in the row of houses behind me, or at La Suisse, I think the noise level should be minimal.
However, if you are noise-sensitive and considering staying at La Suisse II or in one of the houses in front of me (not shown in the photo above), you may want to do an in-person viewing to check out the road noise levels first.

As shown on Google Maps, the estate is right at the end of the road. It is REALLY far in – there are no public buses this way, so you would need a car to make the most out of living here. The plus point of this is that the area is quiet and peaceful (refer to the photo above – looking back towards the way we drove in.)






















Next to and behind La Suisse is PUB land. I didn’t take a photo as we’re often not allowed to photograph state land.

For those who have been keeping track of new land releases in Singapore, it may seem like bit of a…






Unfortunately, this means the row of houses along the top line of the “T” junction, the ones at the top of the street are East-West facing (generally less desired in Singapore.)




Separating the tennis court and the house is more PUB land which, according to a sign, is a “Designated Hazardous Area.”

There’s also a path and side gate out of La Suisse. It’s a shortcut that brings you in front of the houses. This is super handy if your kids go to school at Holland International School, Chatsworth International School, Korean International School, Primus Schoolhouse or Chatsworth Kindergarten. However, it’s not really useful for anything else, as the schools are the only thing within easy walking distance of the houses (There is no MRT or bus stop nearby. It’s a 25-minute walk and a 35-minute walk to the closest bust stop and MRT respectively, according to Google Maps.)









One thing to note is that the road along Binjai Park is surprisingly narrow, given the fact that it’s a 2-way road and that the residents here mostly drive big cars.




This brings us to the end of today’s tour! How did you find the area? In the days before Grab, I can see how living here could be quite inconvenient. However, now that getting a taxi is so much more convenient, the inaccessibility (for Singapore) may be worth it given the peacefulness of the neighbourhood and the views!
Let me know what you think in the comments!
