The Serra Residences Location

The Serra Residences stands at 7 Bassein Road, in the quiet residential streets that sit between Balestier Road and the Novena medical district.

Novena MRT station on the North-South Line is about eight minutes on foot, and its Exit A serves Tan Tock Seng Hospital directly.

From Novena, Newton is one stop south and Orchard two, with the City Hall and Raffles Place interchanges a few stops further, so the Central Business District is an easy ride.

By car, the Central Expressway and the Pan-Island Expressway are both close at hand, and Orchard Road is about eight minutes away.

Square 2, Velocity @ Novena Square, United Square and Zhongshan Mall are all within a short walk, with Newton Food Centre five minutes’ drive away.

St. Joseph’s Institution Junior and Hong Wen School are both within 1 km, according to the developer’s fact sheet.

The Serra Residences location page covers each connection, with the six area guides linked from it.

A Rare Freehold Address

Freehold Tenure and Site Facts at The Serra Residences

Freehold land has grown steadily scarcer in the city fringe, and a freehold address within walking distance of an MRT station and a national medical campus is scarcer still. The Serra Residences holds its land in perpetuity, with no lease to run down, and it arrives as the first new launch in this pocket of Novena in seven years — a first-mover position for the buyers who move early.

From the developer’s fact sheet, information as at 18 September 2026. All particulars are subject to change at the developer’s discretion.

The development sits on two land lots on a plot ratio of 2.8, which keeps the tower to a single slender form of 133 homes and leaves room for a generous facilities deck. The Serra Residences project details page sets out the specification in full, and the site plan page shows how the tower, tennis court and pool sit on the plot.

The Design Concept

The Serra Residences Design: A Retreat Shaped by the Slopes of Bassein Road

The Serra Residences design concept: the tower, lap pool and green podium in the Novena skyline

The architecture takes its cue from the natural slopes and greenery of Bassein Road. P&T Consultants have designed a single tower whose base splays outward in tall sculpted fins, grounding the building in its landscaped podium, while the upper floors rise in a clean vertical form above the neighbourhood.

The homes are positioned for light, breeze and outlook. To the south, residents take in the city skyline and Marina Bay; to the north, the view is framed by greenery. The tower is planned around seven stacks on the lower floors and four on the upper floors, which keeps the number of homes on each floor small.

Two features give the development its character. The first is the elevated Sky Terrace on level 17, a green space between the two collections for residents to relax and unwind. The second is the 50-metre lap pool, set above the arrival courtyard so that it becomes part of the first impression as residents drive in. The Serra Residences gallery gathers the renders of both.

The Residences

The Serra Residences Unit Mix and Floor Plans

The Serra Residences offers thirteen unit types across its 133 homes. On levels 4 to 16, The Serra Residences collection has seven stacks: three 2-bedroom + study types, three 3-bedroom types and a 4-bedroom type, thirteen of each. On levels 18 to 27, The Summit has four larger types, ten of each, and level 28 is given to two penthouses.

A Private Resort at Home

The Serra Residences Facilities: Pool, Tennis and a Sky Terrace

For a development of 133 homes, the facilities deck at The Serra Residences is unusually generous. The shared life of the building is spread across three levels: a full tennis court at level 2, a resort deck at level 3, and the Sky Terrace at level 17.

At level 3 the 50-metre lap pool runs the length of the deck, with a spa pool and sun deck beside it. A BBQ pavilion and a dining room serve entertaining; a fitness room, steam room and sauna serve the daily routine. Families have a kids’ pool, pavilion and playground, a family deck and a pets park. At level 17, the Sky Terrace adds a social lounge, a retreat lounge, a zen deck and a wellness garden, with the city laid out below.

The building is designed to last as well as to please. It is Green Mark certified, and its car park of 106 lots includes five lots with EV charging, alongside 23 bicycle lots. The Serra Residences amenities page lists every facility, and the site plan shows where each one sits.

Connectivity

The Serra Residences and Its MRT Connections

Novena MRT station (NS20) on the North-South Line is about eight minutes’ walk from The Serra Residences, or three minutes by car. From Novena, Newton interchange for the Downtown Line is one stop south, Orchard two, and the City Hall and Raffles Place interchanges a short ride beyond, so the Central Business District and Marina Bay are within easy reach without a change of line.

For other routes, Mount Pleasant station on the Thomson-East Coast Line is about six minutes’ drive and Toa Payoh (NS19) about nine. The Central Expressway and the Pan-Island Expressway are close by for journeys across the island. The Novena MRT and connectivity guide sets out each route.

Walking and driving times from the developer’s fact sheet, based on OneMap. Actual times vary with route and traffic.

The Medical Hub

HealthCity Novena on The Serra Residences’ Doorstep

Few residential addresses sit as close to a national medical campus as The Serra Residences. Across Jalan Tan Tock Seng lies HealthCity Novena, the 17-hectare campus anchored by Tan Tock Seng Hospital, with the National Centre for Infectious Diseases, the National Skin Centre, the National Neuroscience Institute and NTU’s Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine all a few minutes’ walk from the site.

Mount Elizabeth Novena Hospital, Novena Specialist Center and Novena Medical Center are about ten minutes on foot. For medical professionals, specialists and researchers who work on the campus, and for families who value care close at hand, the address has an obvious appeal. The HealthCity Novena guide covers the campus and its master plan.

Schools

Schools Within Reach of The Serra Residences

For families, The Serra Residences sits within 1 km of two primary schools: St. Joseph’s Institution Junior, about eight minutes on foot, and Hong Wen School, about twelve, according to the developer’s fact sheet. Between 1 and 2 km are Anglo-Chinese School (Junior), Farrer Park Primary, Bendemeer Primary, Kheng Cheng School, Pei Chun Public School, St Andrew’s School (Junior), Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) and CHIJ Toa Payoh.

The guide to schools near Bassein Road sets out each in turn; for Primary One registration, distances should be confirmed with the Ministry of Education.

Daily Life

Malls, Parks and Food Around The Serra Residences

Daily errands are close. Shaw Plaza and the 2 Moulmein Road redevelopment are about eight minutes on foot, and Square 2, Zhongshan Mall, Novena Square and Velocity are within ten or eleven. United Square and Goldhill Shopping Centre are a little further, and Whampoa Drive Market Place and Pek Kio Market & Food Centre serve hawker favourites nearby.

The neighbourhood has a well-earned reputation for food, from Michelin-recognised hawker stalls around Balestier, Whampoa and Newton to the restaurants of Novena. For green space, Novena Park is about eight minutes’ walk and the Whampoa Park Connector two minutes’ drive, with the Singapore Chinese Recreation Club and the Singapore Polo Club a short drive away. The guide to Novena malls and dining covers each.

The USPs

What Sets The Serra Residences Apart

1. Freehold, in the city fringe

A freehold title in District 11, within walking distance of an MRT station, held in perpetuity with no lease to run down.

2. The precinct’s first new launch in seven years

The first new development in this pocket of Novena in seven years, bringing new homes to an established address.

3. A single tower of 133 homes

A boutique scale, with seven stacks below the Sky Terrace and four above it, so homes are few to a floor.

4. Resort facilities

A 50-metre lap pool, a full tennis court, a clubhouse deck and a Sky Terrace — an unusually generous set for a development of this size.

5. Beside HealthCity Novena

Steps from the 17-hectare HealthCity Novena campus and about eight minutes’ walk from Novena MRT, with Orchard Road a short drive away.

6. Far East Organization

Developed by Singapore’s largest private property developer, with more than six decades of homes behind it.

Far East Organization

The Track Record Behind The Serra Residences

Far East Organization was established in 1960 and has since developed more than 780 developments across residential, hospitality, retail, commercial and industrial real estate, including some 55,000 private homes in Singapore — more than any other private developer. Together with its Hong Kong-based sister company, Sino Group, it is one of Asia’s largest real estate groups, with operations in Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, Japan, China, Taiwan and the United States.

The group includes three listed entities — Far East Orchard, Far East Hospitality Trust and Yeo Hiap Seng — and has won 14 FIABCI World Prix d’Excellence awards. Its residential work spans Silversea on the East Coast and Hillvista, and its hospitality work includes the landmark Oasia Hotel Downtown. The Serra Residences developer page has more.

The Transformation

The Neighbourhood Around The Serra Residences Is Changing

Two public projects are reshaping the streets around Bassein Road. The first is HealthCity Novena: in September 2025 the Ministry of Health launched the HealthCity Novena Master Plan 2030 and Beyond, the next phase of the campus, adding a new medical tower, healing spaces, green corridors and walking trails that connect the campus to its surroundings.

The second is 2 Moulmein Road, the former Middleton Hospital and Communicable Diseases Centre site, about eight minutes’ walk away. The Singapore Land Authority awarded the heritage site to Country City Investment, the company involved in the transformation of Dempsey Hill, to create a lifestyle hub with restaurants and cafés, sports and wellness facilities, playgrounds and green spaces, expected to open in the first quarter of 2027. By the time The Serra Residences is completed, both should be part of the neighbourhood. The 2 Moulmein Road guide covers the plans.
