Looking for new cluster home projects located within hilly surroundings that come with luxuries like private lifts, resort-style residences and more unique features? Read on for our picks!
Villa life in the park
In modern Singapore, it’s not easy to find a centrally-located residence that is surrounded by lush greenery. Yet, located next to a Good Class Bungalow (GCB) area in Bukit Timah are the villas of Victoria Park. Encircled by nature, the nearby hilly surroundings add to the appeal. What’s more, being in District 10 means that these exclusive residences are just a 10-minute drive away from the malls of Orchard Road.
Victoria Park Villas
Overseen by award-winning Singapore architect Mok Wei Wei, the freehold residential development has roped in three other architects to design each of the three types of buildings — the pool villas, semi-detached garden villas and detached bungalows. Foliage and fencing are also strategically placed, to serve as privacy screens between each residence.
To add to the tranquil setting, the living rooms of these villas overlook the garden instead of the parking lot since the private carpark is hidden at the basement level of each villa. The hilltop bungalows also enjoy a vantage view of the area due to its elevated height.
Resort living
Picture living in a resort-like environment, where the pool is at your doorstep as every multi-storey home at Greenwood Mews has direct access to the lap pool. It’s also one of your last chances to buy newly-built property in the area, as the development is on the last major plots of land to be released there.
Greenwood Mews
All 62 units measure in at over 3,000 sqft, meaning that space is unlikely to be an issue. Each home is also fitted with a jacuzzi and BBQ area at its private roof terrace, which makes it easy to plan house parties with family and friends. Homeowners can choose between two types of kitchen (open and closed), depending on their cooking habits.
If you love such resort-style features, have a look at The Seawind as well. The striking landscaping makes the pool appear like a river stream that meanders along the bridges and walking path. Other facilities on site include a tennis court, playground, fitness stations, barbeque pits and a gym.

Unit types range from the spacious townhouses, the 1-bedroom condominium units to 1-bedroom plus study SoHo (Small office Home office). Townhouse owners get direct access to the communal pool; a transparent glass barricade prevents the pool water from splashing onto their personal space. For ground floor condominium units, the landscaped garden is right at their doorstep.
Indulgences for all
If you’re looking for a development where the amenities are close to your home, check out the Belgravia Villas. The residential project features plenty of family-friendly facilities that line each row of terrace and semi-detached units; such thoughtful placement mean that every unit is just a stone’s throw away from the nearest communal pool or garden.
Belgravia Villas
Each of the multi-storey terrace and semi-detached houses on site range from 3,520-4,026 sqft, has parking for two cars, a rooftop terrace and access to the swimming pools. Even better, it’s a freehold development so it’s yours to keep and pass down to your next generation. All units come fitted with a makes it easy for everyone to move across the floors too. It is a consideration that the elders in the family can appreciate.
Space for the whole family
For more peace and tranquility, look to the nearby Alana, which is also situated in the quiet enclave of Seletar Hills Estate. The area is surrounded by landed houses and private projects, but is still a short drive away from malls like Greenwich V and Ang Mo Kio Hub.
Alana
This cluster housing development is made up of four Hawaiian-inspired clusters — Kai, Nani, Kala and Ola. At each of these clusters, the pool facility and surrounding foliage have been selected to fit the themes of ocean, garden, sun as well as health and wellness. As with Belgravia Villas, this cluster housing project is catered to multi-generational living, with built-in features such as elevator access to all floors, a roof terrace and a 1st-floor bedroom that’s convenient for the elderly.
Thanks to the low-rise buildings in the neighbourhood, you’ll also get some calming views of the surrounding greenery.
