Your riverfront home from S$578,000

Riverfront Residences is the perfect retreat from the city

Just when you think there is little more left to be said about waterfront living and all that it brings, along comes a new development to challenge the status quo.

A buzzword in the last year or two, waterfront living typically conjures images of spectacular landscapes, idyllic environs, access to leisure activities and the like. But the newly launched Riverfront Residences, located at Hougang Ave 7, offers all these, and more.

Here are four reasons why you should consider snapping up a unit here, especially if you are a HDB upgrader or a savvy investor keen on settling in this mature estate.

1. COMPETITIVE PRICES

As Singaporeans, we have a compulsion to compare the price tags attached to everything we buy — and this is especially true for big-ticket purchases.

Land in the north-east region of Singapore has become increasingly popular in recent years, but Oxley Holdings’ first-mover advantage has put its housing prices significantly lower than most other developers.

Developed by an Oxley-led consortium which comprises Oxley Holdings, KSH Holdings, SLB Developments and Apricot Capital, Riverfront Residences boasts the lowest square foot per plot ratio of any north-eastern residential site sold in 2017, at $706 per square foot. It comprises various unit types from one-bedders — which start at $578,000 — to five-bedroom homes to strata terrace houses. There are also six shops on the premises, for when you really need that retail therapy stat.

2. THREE DISTINCT STYLES OF LIVING

The 1,472 units of Riverfront Residences, all equipped with a suite of smart home capabilities, are divided into three coves with their own distinct identities and clubhouses.

Settle down in the greenery of the Botanic cove, where you can sit back, close your eyes and lose yourself in nature.

Or choose the tranquil vibes of the Resort cove that offers its residents an easier and more convenient access to the clubhouse and gym.

If you love living it up by the riverside, you will want a home in the Lifestyle cove, a premiere entertainment space complete with outdoor dining areas and river pool.

3. COMMUNE WITH NATURE

Surrounded by lush greenery, there is no excuse not to step out and explore the beauty of nature and partake in some outdoor fun.

Located on the banks of Sungei Serangoon, Riverfront Residences is directly connected to the Serangoon Park Connector network, making a morning jog or bike ride an experience that looks positively inviting. You might just make time for some daily outdoor exercise now to enjoy this indulgence.

Not keen to work up a sweat?

Be one with nature in a whole other way when you move into one of the 21 strata terrace houses located along the riverfront. It is the perfect place to sit back, pour yourself a generous glass of wine, and watch the sun set.

4. EXTENSIVE CONNECTIVITY

Riverfront Residences puts you within close reach of transport nodes. There are plenty of MRT stations a few minutes from Riverfront Residences, on both the Circle Line and North-East Line. Come 2030, the Cross Island MRT Line will cut directly through Hougang and reduce your commutes.

There is also a plethora of buses available directly from the condominium; these zip you from your home to nearby malls, super-markets, eateries, schools and more. If you have your own set of wheels, taking the Kallang-Paya Lebar Expressway offers a shorter and faster route to the city centre.
