Artra

Completed in 2021, Artra is a 99-year leasehold mixed-use development located at 10 Alexandra View in District 3 (D3).As the condominium is most closely located right next to Redhill MRT station (EW18), Artra residents enjoy the convenience of having a shopping mall, childcare centre, F&B establishments, and supermarket all within the confines of their home.One of Artra’s strongest selling points is its city fringe location in the Rest of Central Region (RCR) of Singapore. All it takes is a 10 to 15-minute commute to get to the Central Business District (CBD) at Raffles Place MRT station (EW14/NS26), Shenton Way, the Marina Bay Financial District, and the Orchard shopping belt.Situated along Alexandra View, residents are well served by arterial roads and major expressways that efficiently connect to key business hubs, choice schools as well as popular retail and lifestyle destinations.With the Redhill MRT station (EW18) on the East-West Line (EWL) right across the development, residents can quickly reach places.Ride two stops away from Redhill MRT, and commuters can transfer to the North-East Line (NEL) and Thomson East Coast Line (TEL) at Outram Park Interchange (EW16/NE3/TE17). The NEL connects riders to Harbourfront, where locals and tourists can take a monorail right into Sentosa. Cultural landmarks such as Chinatown and Little India are also accessible via the NEL.Serving as an alternative to the North-South Line (NSL), the TEL runs from Woodlands to Marina Bay. Bypassing high-traffic interchanges at Raffles Place MRT (EW14/NS26) station and City Hall interchange (NS25/EW13), the TEL shaves travelling time down by up to 40%.Also, on the NEL, commuters can access the NSL at both Raffles Place MRT and City Hall interchange. The NSL takes commuters to the Orchard shopping belt as well as Dhoby Ghaut Interchange (NS24/NE6/CC1) where they can switch over to the Circle Line (CCL) to head to places of interest such as the Esplanade and Suntec City.Travelling further down the EWL to Bugis MRT Station (EW12/DT14), commuters can explore heritage places such as Haji Lane as well as shop at Bugis Junction, Bugis Plus, and Bugis Village. This is where they can also transfer to the Downtown Line (DTL) to residential areas such as Bukit Panjang, Bukit Timah, MacPherson, and Bedok Reservoir.Those who drive can leverage Artra’s proximity to the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE) and Central Expressway (CTE), which efficiently leads to the rest of Singapore in just a few minutes.Artra residents can also take a short drive to visit various parts of the Southern Ridges Walk comprising Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, Henderson Waves, Hortpark, and Labrador Nature Reserve.Residents who enjoy reading can also head to the Queenstown Public Library nearby.CanopyChildcare PlaygroundLeisure Tennis CourtLeisure PoolLap PoolSplash PoolPlaygroundTennis CourtClub LoungeClub PavilionLeisure PavilionOutdoor LoungeAqua DeckLeisure PoolPool BenchPool DeckCabana PodChaise PodLap PoolJacuzziTea GardenFamily PavilionSplash PoolPlaygroundSun DeckRecreation DeckRecreational LoungeSky Terrace (Level 24)Recreation DeckRecreation LoungeSky JacuzziFitness LoungeFitness ClubFitness DeckSeating AlcoveRooftop LoungeRooftop PavilionViewing DeckAlexandra Primary SchoolCrescent Girls’ School (within 1km radius)Gan Eng Seng School (within 1km radius)Queenstown Secondary SchoolZhengde Primary SchoolFor residents with young children, Etonhouse pre-school (Newton) is a four-minute drive away.Nearby healthcare facilities include:Alexandra HospitalSingapore General HospitalOutram Community HospitalSingHealth Polyclinics - OutramAtra’s city fringe location gives residents easy access to a plethora of shops and malls.
