More than ever, the pandemic has revealed to us that having space is a privilege. With a larger home, we can accomplish more — whether to work, relax, or bond with our loved ones. Yet, space also comes at a premium. In new projects, spacious units are hard to come by.
There are exceptions. Peak Residence, an upcoming freehold development, is one such development, offering spacious layouts in its 90 units, spread across three five-storey blocks.
With one- to four-bedroom configurations, all the living rooms in the development have a generous ceiling height of 3.2m. The one-bedroom units start from 528 sq ft, while the two-bedroom units are between 776 sq ft and 808 sq ft.
The rest of the units have an extra study area that can be flexibly used as a workspace, entertainment room or bedroom. Two-bedroom plus study units start from 829 sq ft; three-bedroom plus study units are from 1,066 sq ft to 1,088 sq ft and four-bedroom plus study units are 1,389 sq ft in size.

The units are also raised, thanks to the fact that the 57,383 sq ft plot of Peak Residence is on elevated ground, in a north-south orientation. This means that more than half of the units have unobstructed, panoramic views overlooking a tranquil residential enclave. Higher-floor units also enjoy views towards MacRitchie Reservoir Park.
Inside, units are equipped with high-quality finishings and appliances for everyday comfort. For instance, the stove, oven, fridge, and other kitchen appliances are from luxury kitchen brand V-ZUG, a renowned brand that was recently awarded Best Kitchen Appliances by Tatler Singapore this year. The bathrooms are fitted with sanitary ware from Duravit. There is also an automatic bidet in the three- and four-bedroom units.
While Peak Residence’s positioning on Thomson Road at a cul de sac next to Thomson Medical Centre offers exclusivity, the project is surrounded by a plethora of amenities. It is a short walk from Novena MRT Station, in close proximity to shopping malls such as Square 2, Velocity@Novena Square and United Square Shopping Mall.

For families with school-going children, the District 11 property easily ranks high as a choice home to own. It is within 1km of Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road), SJI International School and CHIJ Toa Payoh. Other schools in its vicinity include SCGS and Anglo-Chinese School (Junior).
For leisure and relaxation, future residents are within a five-minute drive to MacRitchie Reservoir Park, a popular spot for nature lovers with hiking trails and a treetop walk. Drivers can also easily access other parts of Singapore via major highways such as the Pan Island Expressway (PIE) and Bukit Timah Expressway (BKE). For instance, Peak Residence is a 10-minute drive to the bustling shopping district of Orchard Road.
The upcoming North-South integrated transport corridor, which will link towns in the north region to the city, will further improve connectivity around Peak Residence when it is completed in 2026. Aside from roads, this corridor will also include bus lanes, cycling trunk routes and pedestrian paths.

As it is adjacent to Thomson Medical Centre, property investors at Peak Residence can immediately rent to medical professionals working there. When the future Health City Novena is progressively built, Peak Residence will also benefit from being close to an integrated healthcare development spanning 17ha, comprising healthcare facilities and medical schools.
Facilities at the development include a 33m lap pool, jacuzzi, clubhouse and gym, which are located on the Sky Terrace, on the highest floor of the development. The expansive communal space not only provides an avenue to destress, it is also a place for community.
