Last week, we visited Jago Close and Chapel Road – I found the heritage houses there very charming but the area was quite densely built up. This week, we’ll be visiting Peach Garden, a landed estate also in the East that feels miles apart from Jago Close and Chapel Road. Unlike Jago Close and Chapel Road, Peach Garden is a spacious estate with large houses but fewer amenities within walking distance. (It is, however, only 5 minutes on foot from Tanjong Katong MRT, which is on the Thomson-East Coast line.)
Landed markets are thinner and less transparent than condo markets. Good comparables can be difficult to find, and an enclave often behaves very differently from another just a few streets away.
That’s where a second opinion can be valuable: benchmarking a specific property against comparable transactions, understanding what you’re really paying for, and weighing whether it makes sense for your own plans.
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.
Here’s the map for you to orientate yourself. As you may have noticed, the estate is just across the road from East Coast Park – they’re separated by the ECP. Unfortunately, there is currently no easy way to get across so it still takes around 20 minutes (on foot) to get to the Park.
The eagle-eyed amongst you may also have realised that the estate is right next to Jalan Seaview, which we viewed a while back and which was recently in the news due to flash floods. However, despite the risk of flooding nearby, it seems that residents may be quite happy living at Peach Garden as there were only 2 sales in the last 12 years!
Let’s take a look to see what makes this estate special!To enter the estate, whether it’s by car or on foot, you have to turn in from Meyer Road. (As far as I could tell there is no public back gate, so this is the only way in/out of the landed enclave.)
Near the Meyer Road-Peach Garden junction is Peach Garden condo – the condo has a back gate which opens up to East Coast but I’m not sure if the residents of the landed area are allowed to use it. (There was a Google review by someone claiming to be a resident of the landed enclave expressing dissatisfaction with the condo’s security guards so…)The review in question. Peach Garden Condo. There are under 100 units here so it doesn’t make the estate feel hemmed in or densely packed. (The condo is known for its larger-than-normal units.)From the road, you can look into the condo’s swimming pool.Standing beside the condo and looking into Peach Garden landed enclave – see what I mean about the estate feeling spacious and open? Lots of easy parking in sight too. You may think I go on too much about street parking in these landed estate tours but you’d be surprised how much impact it can have on one’s standard of living. I have 2 friends who have lived in both condos and landed houses but (to my surprise) prefer the condos because of how hard it was to get parking/drive through their landed estates. (Not all landed estates are created equal, unfortunately!) The landed houses are arranged in a circle here – i.e. after turning left and walking around the estate, we will end up where we started (here.)This is what you see after turning left – ahead are the high-rise condos at Amber Road, which are right next to the landed estate. However, they are a distance away so they don’t feel too close for comfort.The houses here are all on the larger side – mostly detached and semi-D units. Not a single terrace house in sight.Most of the houses are still in their original style. i.e. not built up to the max.There are a few cars parked on the street here, but it is still easy to drive through this estate. Since the estate only consists of a circular road (it doesn’t open to another road) there is probably not much through traffic here. Turning back and looking at Peach Gardens Condo (there are high-rise condos on both sides of the landed estate.)Have you noticed something? Most of the units here are 2-stories only. (there is room to go higher if one wishes to rebuild.)You can see the houses on both sides of the street in this photo – hope it makes my point about the 2-storey houses on this side of Peach Gardens. (There are a few 3-storey units on the other side.)Taking a quick look at the Masterplan here. As shown, the units where we are at are slightly smaller than the ones on the other side of Peach Garden. (Nonetheless, note that the units in Peach Garden are generally bigger than the houses over at Jalan Seaview.)
You may also have noticed from the map that there is no playground within this estate. However, the closest is over at Jalan Nuri, which is a mere stone’s throw away.
A five-room unit at Pasir Ris One - a Design, Build and Sell Scheme (DBSS) project - has set a…

Look at the house at the end – that shows you how much higher you can build.Turning round the corner to the other side of Peach Gardens.The houses here are so expansive, there are no gates that open to this side of the road, which is one of the reasons the estate feels so spacious.Have you noticed something? All the houses have dustbins on the pavements/driveways, instead of using them to block the road. Very considerate of them!As mentioned earlier, we can find houses that have been built higher in this part of the estate.One thing to note in an estate which has many properties that have not maximised the plot ratio is that there may be quite a bit of construction projects nearby in the future (as people sell out and the new owners rebuild.) There was 1 house being rebuilt when I visited.I can’t decide – are these houses considered semi-detached, or detached? (They’re sort of linked but not as closely as the typical semi-D house.)These houses are the closest to the ECP (which separates the estate from East Coast Park) – despite the proximity, I didn’t realise there was a highway nearby till I looked at the map. (i.e. Traffic noise wasn’t an issue when I visited. In fact, the estate was exceedingly peaceful.)The estate is pretty small so we’ve actually seen all the houses here! Let’s head out onto Meyer Road to see what’s close by – the above photo shows the Meyer Road – Peach Garden Junction.Turning right. This brings you to Tanjong Katong MRT and Amber Road. All landed houses in sight with no shops or restaurants nearby, unfortunately.This is what it looks like if we turn left instead. Similarly, it’s all houses and no commercial units.
If we keep walking down this way, there is a small supermarket in The Makena condo (Makena’s Mart.) Apart from Makena’s Mart, the closest amenities would be daycare and childcare centres such as Brighton Montessori Mountbatten. You can also walk about 12 minutes to Tanjong Katong Road, where you’ll find many shophouses that house eateries and cafes – to find out more about the amenities there, you can check out my review of Bournemouth Road, Wareham Road, and Swanage Road (listed from closest to furthest from Peach Garden.)
Now that we’ve seen the entire estate and its neighbours, how did you find it? Let me know in the comments!
Unlike condos, there are very few true like-for-like comparisons in the landed market. Every purchase is effectively a judgement call based on imperfect comparables.
If you’d like to discuss how this applies to your own circumstances, you can reach out for a one-to-one consultation here.

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.

Those houses are called linked semi-detached houses.
I have a friend who got permission to get his detached house into a linked semi-d. This way he could have more garden on one side while being joined to the shared common wall (fence). He only “joined” on ground level. The 2nd & 3rd floors just did not have windows on that side.

Could you do a feature on the landed houses along Carpmael Road and Onan Road? But the side that is nearer to i12 Katong and not the side near to Changi Road
