Discover an unparalleled opportunity to enhance your lifestyle with this exquisite penthouse at Devonshire Residences — a true masterpiece of luxury and sophistication. This stunning one-bedroom sanctuary on the 25th floor offers not just a home, but also an exclusive retreat and prestige in the heart of Singapore.

Imagine sipping on a cup of coffee on a quiet Sunday morning at home while admiring Singapore’s iconic skyline from your balcony.

There are not many sky-high homes in Singapore where you can enjoy such a private 270-degree view of the cityscape.

But now, a rare opportunity has come up — a freehold, one-bedroom penthouse at Devonshire Residences has made its way onto the market. Perched on the 25th floor, this 947 sq ft unit is the epitome of urban living within a contemporary-designed home.

The unblocked views from this penthouse unit were what originally attracted the owner to buy it when the project was launched in 2011, says Sherry Yeo, Associate Director at Propnex Realty, and the exclusive marketing agent.

The height and prime central location of Devonshire Residences provide an uninterrupted 270-degree view of Singapore’s city skyline — a panoramic view that encompasses the rich historical and cultural landscape of Singapore. From the iconic landmarks of the Civic District, including the Padang and Fort Canning, to the vibrant Orchard Road shopping belt, every angle captures the essence of the city’s heritage and contemporary charm.

This phenomenal city view is best appreciated on the private open-air terrace, which is large enough to accommodate al fresco dining when entertaining guests. Alternatively, one could take in the views while soaking in the private rooftop pool above the penthouse. With none of the neighbouring residential developments blocking the view, it feels like a private oasis that only a handful of people get to experience.

This penthouse offers an exceptional opportunity for the discerning buyer to shape a luxurious living space tailored to their unique needs and lifestyle. The unit's open layout provides flexibility to redesign the living areas.

Yeo worked with an acclaimed interior designer to completely reimagine parts of the living room and bedroom. One novel concept transforms the existing kitchen and living room into a cozy bedroom, making the most of the high ceilings and bay windows to create a grand, palatial living space. Another converts the bedroom into a generous entertainment area, maximizing the use of the adjacent open-air balcony to create a larger space.

The prime central location of this penthouse at Devonshire Residences makes the unit ideal for those who want the benefits of city-living.

Devonshire Residences is situated less than 400m to Somerset along the bustling Orchard Road shopping belt. Major shopping malls like Ngee Ann City, 313 @ Somerset, Orchard Central, The Centrepoint, Cuppage Plaza and 111 Somerset are all within walking distance.

It is also close to MRT stations like Somerset on the North-South Line (NSL), Orchard Interchange on the NSL and Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL), as well as Dhoby Ghaut Interchange on the NSL, North East Line and Circle Line.

The Devonshire Road area is also within an upmarket residential enclave, with numerous condominiums and apartment blocks along nearby Exeter Road, Killiney Road, Saint Thomas Walk, Lloyd Road, and Oxley Road.

Enhancing the overall liveability of this area are conveniently located amenities and F&B options, such as a 24-hour FairPrice supermarket at Orchard Grand Court, which is less than 200m away from Devonshire Residences, as well as numerous F&B options along Killiney Road.

“It is rare to find a similar penthouse on the market today that boasts the stunning views, flexible unit layout, and prime location which this unit has to offer,” says Yeo.

This unit is perfectly suited for a young single working professional who appreciates the convenient and vibrant lifestyle of staying within the central area. Moreover, the freehold tenure of this property means that it will retain its capital value for the long term, potentially kickstarting a profitable investment portfolio for its new owner, adds Yeo.
