When choosing a new home, there’s only one factor that really matters, and that factor is this: location.
Wait, that’s a bit reductionist. There’s also location and location to consider.
On that front, the Peak Residence scores full marks.
Developed by Tuan Sing Holdings and expected to be completed in 2025, the luxury condominium has only 90 well-appointed, high-ceiling units, ranging in size from 528 sq ft to 1,389 sq ft, across five floors in its low-density compound. These units range in layout from one-bedroom to four-bedroom units (with a study area for certain units), making it perfect for a variety of living needs.
On elevated ground with unobstructed views in District 11, on a cul-de-sac just off Thomson Road, Peak Residence is next to the Thomson Medical Centre.
This means it’s just a stone’s throw away from Orchard Road with its multitude of high-end shopping destinations, within 2km of prestigious schools such as ACS Barker, CHIJ Toa Payoh and St. Joseph’s Institution, plus it’s just a few minutes away from the Pan-Island Expressway, linking you up with just about every corner of Singapore.
Given its location, Peak Residence will be a direct benefactor of the 21.5km-long North-South Corridor, which is scheduled for completion in 2027. Running parallel to the Central Expressway, the North-South Corridor’s new expressway will allow direct access to attractions such as the upcoming Mandai Nature integrated nature and wildlife precinct in the north and the Central Business District in the south.
Besides that, the North-South Corridor’s links to other major expressways make it so that visiting family or friends anywhere in Singapore is just a hop away. Whether it’s nature, serious retail therapy, delicious eats or socialising you’re after, Peak Residence makes getting to either a breeze.
That’s not all, however, because the North-South Corridor will also play host to cycling paths, footpaths and dedicated bus lanes along its length. In short, smoother journeys to and from your new home at Peak Residence wherever you wish to go, and lots to do with the family on weekends.
In more good news, it would also interest you to know that Peak Residence is also a brand-new freehold condominium development, a rarity in the area. This makes the property extremely desirable.
With easy access to such a wide variety of destinations, leaving home is certainly a tempting prospect, though Peak Residence also has plenty to offer should you choose to spend a day at home.
Whichever unit you decide on, you’ll be glad to know it offers an excellent base on which to build your dream home. From high ceilings to top-quality luxury fittings and appliances to floor-to-ceiling windows, your future home at Peak Residence is not just a home, it’s a sanctuary.
And there’s also lots to do in your own little slice of heaven. Sweat it out at the gym, enjoy a few vigorous laps of the 33m-long swimming pool. Or, if kicking back is more your thing, take a dip in the jacuzzi pool, take in the panoramic views at the Hammock Deck or soak in the calm at the Meditation Deck or Sunning Lawn.
While you do so, the little ones will frolic away in the Kids’ Pool or Play Area, the former’s proximity to the Hammock Deck allows you to monitor them while they splash around.
You probably won’t be surprised at how Peak Residence also has many social spaces. From the Poolside Lounge, Clubhouse, Skyline Pavilion, Gourmet Terrace with its attached BBQ pit and Party Lawn, you and your guests will be spoiled for choice. Of course, that’s on top of your hospitality and the magnificent views of the surrounding cityscape and greenery.
Perhaps we didn’t completely get it right at the beginning. For a fresh development to be good, location certainly is important, but for one to achieve greatness, well, that can’t be the only consideration.
The good thing is, Peak Residence doesn’t just have a good (actually, make that fantastic) location going for it, what with it being situated so close to the North-South Corridor, it also has the feel of a truly bespoke home and residential amenities that some other developments can only dream of.
