Habyt launches new flexible living space in Tanjong Pagar

/ EdgeProp Singapore |
Habyt has launched a new accomodation space at 5 Kadayanallur Street in Tanjong Pagar. The 18-room Kada at Maxwell is the flagship space for the operator’s Habyt Flex concept, which represents a strategic broadening of the company’s product offerings beyond long-term co-living.
In August, Habyt Asia Pacific CEO Jonathan Wong signalled that the company was looking to add more short-term living options to its local lineup. The first properties under the Habyt Flex concept are the 39-room Habyt Novena and the 27-room Habyt Kallang, both launched in August. Other properties under the Habyt Flex concept include Habyt Cantonment and Owen House by Habyt.
Kada at Maxwell will offer a range of rooms, including en suite studios and two- to three-bedroom units. Each unit has a fully equipped kitchenette. Guests can book rooms on a weekly basis, with a 12-month option also available.

Wong says Habyt Kada at Maxwell represents the company's commitment to redefining flexible living in Singapore and marks its shift towards the next phase of evolution for Habyt Asia Pacific. Room rates at Kada at Maxwell will start at $180 per night.
The flexible living space is located within a preserved 1920s colonial building. The three-storey building, designed by the architectural firm Swan & Maclaren, was one of the earliest modernist buildings in Singapore. It was built to house the St Andrew’s Mission Hospital for Women and Children.
A public tender to lease the property, now managed by the Singapore Land Authority (SLA), was launched in September 2023. The tender was evaluated based on the bid price and the quality of the proposed concept, and SLA encouraged bidders to consider creative lifestyle concepts.

The site was awarded to Bethesda Medical, which submitted a monthly rental bid of $103,000, the third-highest bid price after Wan Dormitory ($160,000) and The Working Capitol ($108,240).
SLA cited Bethesda's strong focus on community building and connecting people with businesses as what gave its concept the winning edge. The first floor will feature 10 F&B offerings, while the second floor will house a gym by Limitless, a wellness centre in partnership with Shiruki Studio, and a co-working space. Habyt’s Kada at Maxwell is on the third floor.
Residents of Kada at Maxwell will enjoy unlimited and complimentary access to the property's health and wellness amenities, such as the performance gym, cold plunge, infrared saunas, hot tubs and foot baths.

“By blending modern conveniences with the timeless charm of a heritage building, we’re offering guests a unique lifestyle experience that goes beyond traditional accommodation,” adds Wong.
