Gentle Villa

An uncommon opportunity to own a detached bungalow in prime District 11, combining the privacy and space of landed living with the convenience normally associated with a city-fringe condominium.

Located within the established Gentle Villas / Gentle Drive landed enclave in Novena, the property sits on approximately 4,414 sq ft of land, with about 2,900 sq ft built-up, and is currently vacant. Current listings for the same property indicate a 99-year lease commencing in January 1993, with completion in 1995.

The standout advantage — landed living near Novena MRT

What makes Gentle Drive particularly unusual is its location. Novena MRT (NS20) is only about 400–600m away depending on the exact route/address, with current property sources quoting approximately a 6–8 minute walk. 

This gives the buyer something relatively difficult to find in Singapore: a sizeable detached home within walking distance of an MRT station, major shopping centres, medical facilities and everyday conveniences.

Nearby shopping and lifestyle destinations include Velocity @ Novena Square, Square 2 and United Square, while Goldhill Plaza and the wider Novena precinct provide restaurants, cafés, enrichment centres, childcare and everyday services. 

The location also benefits from proximity to HealthCity Novena, while Orchard Road and the CBD remain readily accessible.

Strong education belt

For families, Gentle Drive is surrounded by established schools. Available location data places both St. Joseph's Institution Junior and Anglo-Chinese School (Primary) within approximately 1km of Gentle Drive. 

Within the broader 1–2km vicinity are schools including Anglo-Chinese School (Junior), CHIJ Primary (Toa Payoh), CHIJ Secondary (Toa Payoh), Catholic Junior College, Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road), Singapore Chinese Girls' School and St. Joseph's Institution. 

For Primary 1 registration purposes, the exact distance should be verified using the specific property address and prevailing MOE/OneMap methodology.

A compelling proposition for the next owner

At S$6.843M, this property offers an entry into detached landed ownership in the Core Central Region, with a substantial 4,414 sq ft land parcel and the added advantage of being within walking distance of Novena MRT.

The existing house can serve buyers looking for a family home, while the land dimensions may also interest purchasers considering a future transformation of the site. Any rebuilding, additional storeys, basement, pool or other redevelopment potential would be subject to prevailing URA requirements and approvals.
