Dairy Farm
whilst previous commentators were already remarking about the downsides of the Dairy Farm, I must emphasize that by now most people seem to have acquired a dog - am assuming to give their maids - a chance to go for a walkabout. The constant barking of these dogs has now really become a total nuisance - and unless you are a dog lover yourself I can only warn you about taking up residence here... an absolute pity - as it remains a nice enclave -

It has its downside.....
Whilst I must agree that Dairy Farm has its attractiveness of lush greenery and space, the estate has a number of issues like leaking ceiling, monkeys running around the estate (even climbing up to high floors), facilities within the estate are severely worn out….etc. The estate can also get quite noisy from barking of big dogs and noises from the main road. The current asking prices are also way beyond banks’ valuation. Unless, the specific unit has gone through a major overhaul, otherwise most units at its original condition (from 25-28 years ago) will require substantial renovation before the house is livable. -

lovely place to live
The construction is right next to the blocks next to the road, (3, 5,) however if you aren't near Dairy farm road or the construction it is a very quiet place to live. Dairy Farm is huge, and the low rise units at the back (21-29) look over a nature reserve. Lovely. Some units are lovely, others are not (same as in any other place). Common bathrooms are not that bad. Great for families. -

Dairy Farm
Very noisy with the construction of the new MRT just outside the condo grounds. Units are old and moldy. The exterior is quite spacious if you have small kids. Large pool but common bathrooms are horrid. -

Nice resort living if well maintained
Seen a few units, really have a resort feeling! The living, dinning and rooms are spacious. If you get a high floor with unblocked view, would be even better. Swimming pool is nice, but the toilet is like those old public swimming pool toilet - very old and not well maintained. The barbecue pits and tennis courts are far, as if it's in another condo. Heard that enbloc is quite hard since a lot of resident likes this place, management should look into improve the facilities. -

Dairy Farm
Far too noisy now. Road- busy, traffic- heavy, building works- non-stop till 2015, mosquitos. Unpleasant. -

Home is where the heart is
Nestled in the lush rain forest of Upper Bukit Timah, you hear the laughter of children playing amidst the chorus of birds. Generous spaces to breathe, a big pool to float your cares away and well manicured gardens that delight your soul. This is condo living like no other. Welcome to Dairy Farm Estate. The timeless architecture of over 600 units complement the green surroundings. Recently given a new coat of paint, this well managed property hardly feels the 20 years that it is. The mini-mart is almost as well stocked as Cold Storage which is just a stroll away at the Railway Mall. There's a pet store (dogs love this place), a hair salon and even a pub! This is truly a private retreat after a day's work in the city. Which by 2015, you can get back to in no time with the MRT right at its doorstep. With so many plus points, the only downside is finding an owner to part with his beloved home. En-bloc whispers have come and gone. Living here can buy what money cannot. Your heart. -
