Slated for completion in 2024, Midtown Modern comprises 558 residential units across two blocks of 30-storey apartments with retail shops on the first storey
In recent years, there has been a shift in homebuyers’ preferences for more spacious residences — a trend that was vastly accelerated during the pandemic. Homes today serve a variety of functions that require ample space, be it for entertaining guests, ensuring adequate personal space for the entire family, or having a dedicated area for work and hobbies.
As a developer at the forefront of the industry, GuocoLand was quick to recognise the changing lifestyle needs of homeowners and the growing preference for larger homes. This was a key reason behind the inclusion of four-bedroom units at Midtown Modern, its residential development on Tan Quee Lan Street which is a joint venture project with Hong Leong Holdings and Hong Realty.
Generously sized from 1,432 sq ft to 1,808 sq ft, the four-bedders offer a rare and precious offering: spacious homes tucked in the heart of the city. Midtown Modern is part of Guoco Midtown, a 3.2ha mixed-use development by GuocoLand in the thriving BugisBeach Road area in District 7. Once completed in 2024, Midtown Modern will feature 558 residential units spread across two blocks of 30-storey apartments and retail shops at the first storey.
From Midtown Modern, homeowners can walk to establishments like Suntec City, Marina Square and Millenia Walk via sheltered walkways, and even further to Marina Bay Sands and Gardens by the Bay through the Helix Bridge. The development is also situated right above Bugis MRT Station, an interchange for the Downtown and EastWest Lines which provides convenient access to the CBD and good schools such as Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road), Singapore Chinese Girls’ School on Dunearn Road and National Junior College in Bukit Timah, making it convenient for working parents. While homes in such a coveted location tend to skew towards more compact units, the four-bedders at Midtown Modern are a prized opportunity to own a home that is perfect for families or those looking for a truly luxuriously-sized abode.
For the last one year, four-bedders at Midtown Modern have been sold for between $3.81 million and $8.65 million on an absolute basis or between $2,595 psf and $4,784 psf. This offers a comparatively palatable price point for units of this size within a premium development in the city.
The four-bedroom units have thoughtfully crafted layouts, including an open-concept living and dining area that transitions seamlessly to the balcony
With its ample sizes, four-bedders at Midtown Modern are the ideal residences to accommodate families. Layouts of the units have been crafted thoughtfully, featuring large bedrooms, an open-concept living and dining area, and a sizeable balcony. Large windows allow the units to capitalise on the neighbourhood’s picturesque city views, while also letting in plenty of light and ventilation.
With four full-sized bedrooms, each resident will be able to have their own sense of privacy, making the units also suitable for multi-generational families.
To accommodate the different preferences of family members and their various lifestyle needs that may change over time, flexibility was weaved into the layouts. The developer opted to have the living and dining areas to be regular in shape, allowing residents the freedom to convert the spaces into other uses. The areas also transition seamlessly to the balcony, providing a sense of continuity that makes the space feel larger and more functional. Owners can also opt to convert one of the bedrooms into a home office, an entertainment room, a family area or for other uses, depending on their evolving lifestyle requirements.
On top of that, units will be installed with the latest state-of-the-art smart home system, which will include a smart digital main door lockset, app-controlled lighting in the bedrooms, and motion sensor light fixtures in the foyer area.
