Hillview Estate, not to be confused with Hillview Garden Estate, a larger landed area we toured a while back (which, interestingly enough, doesn’t have a single street with “Hillview” in its name) is a small freehold landed estate in Upper Bukit Timah.
The two areas are separated by just one street (Hillview Avenue) and a few condos, but with quite a different feel.


Unfortunately, when exploring the neighbourhood, you don’t get that sense of open greenery, as the estate is bordered by towering apartments.


On the bright side, I didn’t see any monkeys when visiting both this estate (and Hillview Garden estate.) A Google search also did not turn up any reports of monkeys in the area (the closest reports I could find were over at Hindhede Walk.)
The above photo was taken near the entrance to the estate, so let’s start our photo tour there. One thing I like about this estate is the number of entrance/exit points. When driving, you can enter and exit via Hillview Crescent and Hillview Drive- very generous, considering how small this estate is. For pedestrians, there is a 3rd entry/exit point in between these two roads, that brings you directly to the bus stop.
























































So how did you find this estate? Personally, I found it easier to navigate than Hillview Garden thanks to the wider roads. Unfortunately, the tall condo does loom over the properties. Let me know how you like it in the comments!
