Nearby Amenities

‘Woodleigh Hillside’ describes its location next to a hill park and the surrounding greenery.

The 10-hectare Bidadari Park is an ecologically-sensitive regional park at the heart of the Bidadari Estate. It features a lake, open lawns, a 700-metre heritage walk and six kilometres of wooded experiential trails for nature lovers to observe flora and fauna.

On top of that, Bidadari Park will also have a greenway which will extend out from the park and connect to other public spaces within Bidadari. A 20-metre wide greenway, lined with rest spots, and commercial and communal facilities, will cut across the estate from Bartley Road to Upper Serangoon Road. A town centre called Market Square will feature public housing integrated with community facilities and a bus interchange.
