Singapore (EDGEPROP) – Having a residential address in the prime districts of 9 and 10 is the desire of many people. However, it is achieved by very few because of the sky-high prices of such homes. Owning a freehold condo unit of at least 7,000 sq ft in the prime districts is an achievement that most can only dream of.

We combed through the sales listings on EdgeProp and identified several freehold condo units of at least 7,000 sq ft in Districts 9 or 10 that may be your aspirational home.

The three-storey unit has a private pool on its roof terrace. The listing with the highest asking price of $63.0 million ($6,636 psf) is a brand-new three-storey penthouse unit with a private lift as well as a private pool on its roof terrace.

Living it up along Bukit Timah Road

Parents will love Wing On Life Garden because the 81-unit development is within a 1km radius of numerous reputable schools, including Singapore Chinese Girls’ School (Primary and Secondary), Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road), and St. Joseph’s Institution.

Additionally, the development is located near Balmoral Plaza, Newton Food Centre, The Tanglin Club, The American Club, Shangri-La Singapore, Goodwood Park Hotel, as well as Stevens and Newton MRT Stations. This freehold condo obtained its TOP in 1982.

At the time of writing, there was a listing for a five-bedroom penthouse unit in Wing On Life Garden. The 7,104-sq ft unit has an asking price of $18.8 million ($2,646 psf).

At the time of writing, there are about 10 unique listings for condo units of at least 7,000 sq ft in Beverly Hill. The freehold development has only 88 units and obtained TOP in 1993.

Residents of this exclusive development are within walking distance of Tanglin Mall and Orchard Boulevard MRT Station. Other nearby amenities include Ion Orchard, Forum The Shopping Mall, Wheelock Place, Great World City, St. Regis Hotel Singapore, Zion Riverside Food Centre, as well as Orchard and Great World MRT Stations.

The only drawback of the development is the lack of local schools in the neighbourhood, as only Alexandra Primary School is within a 1km radius.

The listing for the smallest unit in Beverly Hill is for a 7,550-sq ft penthouse unit with five bedrooms and has an asking price of $21.0 million ($2,781 psf). The listing for the largest unit is surprisingly more affordable with a lower asking price of $19.5 million ($2,579 psf). The 7,561-sq ft unit also has five bedrooms.

Buyers with deeper pockets could consider the massive 13,000-sq ft penthouse unit in One Chatsworth, which is located next to Beverly Hill. At the time of writing, there was a listing for such a unit with an asking price of $55.0 million ($4,231 psf). The unit is on the penthouse level and has six bedrooms.

One Chatsworth is an exclusive condo with only 45 units. The only drawback might be the age of the development, as it obtained TOP in 1976, but this is mitigated by its freehold tenure.
