Jointly developed by two highly reputable Singapore developers, Keppel Land and Wing Tai Asia, The Garden Residences is a mid-sized 613-unit condominium located at Serangoon North View in District 19. The development consists of five 15-storey blocks, some of which overlook the well-known Serangoon Garden landed housing estate. The 99-year leasehold project is scheduled for completion as early as 2021.
Facilities
This mid-sized condominium boasts a full-suite of facilities characteristic of larger developments, including a sizeable 75-metre swimming pool, a tennis court and a 24-hour gym that faces the pool. The gym is part of a clubhouse that also consists of a gourmet kitchen, a karaoke room and an outdoor gym.
Of the condominium’s list of 55 facilities, many have been designed specifically with wellness in mind. Residents can rejuvenate their senses at facilities such as the hydrotherapy pavilion, floating pods, swim-up spa and a garden onsen.
Various lifestyles are well catered for at The Garden Residences. For dog-owners, there’ll be a play area for pets. Avid gardeners can grow their own herbs and plants at the development’s community garden. The floating yoga pavilion is an ideal spot for meditation.
Through the development and in keeping with its ‘Garden’ name, over 100 species of plants, shrubs, trees and flowers are being specially cultivated to create a “healing garden” environment. Species of plants will include the Osmanthus, whose flowers are used in scented teas, and Philodendron selloum, which filters toxins from the air.
