The more popular locations of choice for Tenants will be the Singapore prime Central District 9, 10 and 11. The second tier will be the District 15, 16 in the East and District 4 and 5 in the Western part of the Island State.

Prime District 9, 10 and 11

Orchard Road is in the heart of the Shopping district and where you will find shops, first class hotels, entertainment, offices, private clubs, supermarkets, movie house within walking distance. So, if you like the hustle and bustle of a city life, Orchard Road area will be the choice.

Cairnhill Road/ Mt Elizabeth Road is another area to consider because it is within the Orchard Road area. A short distance from Orchard Road is Nassim Road where you find many embassies. This area is quiet and close to the Botanic Gardens , one of the more famous Singapore Tourist Attraction.

River Valley and Kim Seng Road is rapidly being developed with many new condos being built over the last 2-3 years. This area is approximately 5-10 minutes drive to Orchard Road and 5-10 minutes drive to the Business District.

Holland Road is another popular expat area which is about 10 minutes drive to get to Orchard Road. For food and entertainment, there is Holland Village where some very good restaurants, fast food outlets, bars are found.

Bukit Timah Road starts from Newton and stretches all the way to Upper Bukit Timah Road. You find many condos along this road but the ones closer to Orchard Road are the popular homes of choice. Right across Bukit Timah Road is Dunearn Road which leads to Watten Estate and Shelford Road. Transportation can be a problem because there are no buses and MRT station nearby.

Jervois and Nathan Road areas are also very sought-after due to its quiet and peaceful surrounding with more low-rise than high-rise condominium and just only approximately 5 minutes drive to Orchard Road. The Indonesian Embassy and the Malaysian Embassy are situated in this area. The latest shopping centre nearby is the Great World City which is approximately 5 minutes drive away.

Eastern District 15, 16

If you prefer to live near the sea and have homes with a view, you can consider East Coast area. This area has a beach, a lot of activities and amenities to offer. For recreational activities there are Parkland Gold Driving Range, East Coast Recreational Centre (Sailing Club), and Singapore Tennis Centre. The East Coast Recreational Centre is very popular amongst expatriates. For food, you can find many popular seafood restaurants by the beach and fast food restaurants.

There are many shopping centres in the part of the island, like Parkway Parade and Katong Shopping Centre. Many really nice condos, mostly sea facing like The Waterside, The Atria, Hawaii Tower, The Sovereign, The Makena, Amber Point, and Amberville. Further up, you find more condos like Mandarin Gardens, Bayshore Park and The Bayshore.

There are no MRT station around this area yet but getting around is no trouble. For frequent air travellers, you can also consider this area because it is a quick 10 to 15 mins drive to the airport.

Another very sought-after area not far away from East Coast Parkway is the water front Tanjong Rhu. Most of the condos you find here like Costa Rhu and Pebble Bay Condo has "great great" view over the Kallang River. However, transportation can be a problem if you do not have a car. If you do drive, it is a quick 5-10 minutes drive to shops and food outlets. You may also walk to the nearby Leisure Park or Indoor Stadium for food, shopping and clubbing too.

Western District 4 and 5

Much closer to the Central Business District area is Telok Blangah. Nearest shopping centre is the HabourFront Shopping Centre or former World Trade Centre Shopping Centre. The MRT station is up and running here and is just next to "Sentosa Island", another tourist attraction access via cable car, car, bus or ferry. .

The Pasir Panjang area has a laid back Village feel. Most Condos here are low rise and located near the green and hill side. This area too has a quite a nice park by the beach with lot of activities and amenities to offer. For food, you can find some good restaurants at the Pasir Panjang Village and yes the famous Pasir Panjang food centre which sell good seafood and satays..

Other Locations..

This is just a short tour or introduction to some popular locations favoured by the expats communities. Other locations equally sought after by Tenants include the Woodland area near to the American schools and areas close to MRT !
