Watten House: A Freehold Condo With Big Units In Bukit Timah

Watten House is a new launch condominium in Bukit Timah by UOL Group and Singapore Land Group (SingLand). This new condo in District 11 brings a rarity in today’s market with 180 luxurious large-format units of up to 4,080 sqft, on a land size of 220,241 sq ft. With its freehold tenure, Watten House condo offers residents a legacy and a generational asset to hold – a low-density living within a prestigious address.

Located along Shelford Road (at the former Watten Estate condominium en bloc), Watten House is about a 7-minute walk from Tan Kah Kee MRT station along the Downtown Line (DTL). It sits on an exclusive private enclave while also offering such convenience in terms of public transport. The private launch of the Watten House condo on 18 November 2023 ended on a high note, with 57% (102 units) sold at an average price of about $3,230 psf.
