Robin Residences is a freehold boutique condominium located at 9 Robin Drive in District 9 (D9). With an exclusive 134 units, this low rise development makes for a good choice for those looking to reside in the Core Central Region (CCR) but would still appreciate some privacy. Robin Residences‘ main selling point is its close proximity to an MRT station. In three minutes, a fully sheltered walkway links residents to Stevens MRT station (DT10/TE11). For those who prefer commuting by bus, the “Leng Kwang Baptist Church” bus stop and “SCGS Primary” bus stop are less than two minutes’ walk away from Robin Residences. Both bus stops are served by bus services that take residents to areas in the Rest of Central Region (RCR) and Outside Central Region (OCR), such as Buona Vista, Choa Chu Kang, Kranji, Marsiling, and Woodlands. Via private transport, the Central Business District (CBD), Orchard shopping belt, and reputable schools in the Bukit Timah cluster are all a short drive away. With the Stevens MRT station (DT10/TE11) just three minutes’ walk away, residents will get to enjoy highly convenient connections to popular locations and key employment areas such as Botanic Gardens MRT station (CC19/ DT9), Orchard (NS22/TE14), Shenton Way (TE19), One-North MRT station (CC23), and Woodlands (NS9/TE2). Serving as an interchange for the Downtown Line (DTL) and Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL), the TEL at Stevens MRT presents an alternative to the North-South Line (NSL). Running from Woodlands to Marina Bay, the TEL shaves travelling time down by up to 40%. Concurrently, the DTL offers commuters alternative routes into the CBD, Marina Bay, City Hall as well as various parts of Bukit Timah, reducing commuting time by up to 30%. Ride one stop to Botanic Gardens MRT station (CC19/DT9), and residents can easily get there by using the Circle Line (CCL). Conversely, riding one stop in the opposite direction to Newton MRT station (NS21/DT11) will give residents access to the North-South Line (NSL). Continuing further on the DTL, commuters can also transfer at Little India MRT station (NE7/DT12) for the North-East Line (NEL) or at Bugis MRT station (EW12/DT14) for the East-West Line (EWL). Just four stations away from Stevens MRT, residents can also gain access to the upcoming Cross Island Line (CRL) at King Albert Park MRT station (DT6/CR15). As the longest fully underground line in Singapore, the CRL will run through the east, west, and north-eastern corridors to connect key employment hubs such as the Jurong Lake District, Punggol Digital District, and Changi. Drivers will appreciate the condo’s proximity to key roads and highways, giving residents access to the Pan-Island Expressway (PIE) and Central Expressway (CTE) in less than 5 minutes. As an added bonus, Robin Residences is also accessible via two routes - Bukit Timah Road and Stevens Road so drivers can effectively avoid rush hour jams. Residents who enjoy nature will get to enjoy the development’s proximity to the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. A short drive or a ten minutes’ walk will also take residents to Singapore’s first UNESCO World Heritage site - Singapore Botanic Gardens.

Founded in 1964, Sing Holdings Limited is a developer and property investment group that is listed on the mainboard of the Singapore Exchange. The Group holds an established track record with a wide investment and development portfolio comprising landed houses, apartments, condominiums as well as office and commercial spaces. Notable projects under their belt include Meyer Residence at Meyer Place, Bellerive, and The Laurels at Cairnhill. Sitting on a site area of 88,748 sq ft, Robin Residences spots a total of five tower blocks housing 134 residential units. Flanked by Bukit Timah Road, Robin Road, Robin Drive, and Robin Close which largely houses low-rise developments, residents get to enjoy relatively scenic views of Bukit Timah. The large site area as opposed to other developments in the area, is yet another selling point. The larger site area gives the developer ample space to build more facilities for residents. Notable facilities include a 33m pool, an adequately sized gym, and the one of a kind rooftop tennis court. Designed with roomy living spaces in mind, units are configured to maximise space and comfort for residents with balconies overlooking different views within the same development. Tanglin residents can anticipate more leisure and recreational spaces with the completion of the North-South Corridor. With completion planned in phases from 2027, the North-South Corridor and the new park connectors along Sungei Whampoa and Adam Road will enhance connectivity in the area. HealthCity Novena, Singapore’s integrated healthcare master plan development, is slated for completion in 2030. This translates to potentially high rental demand for properties near the area as medical tourists visit Singapore for our cutting-edge medical facilities. The completion of the TEL in the central area by 2025 will also significantly boost connectivity to the city centre, further reinforcing the investment potential of Robin Residences. Freehold condominiums in the CCR that are within a few minutes’ walk to MRT stations and bus stops are far and few. In addition to its impeccable locale, Robin Residences is a development worth considering given the unrivalled convenience offered by its proximity to important facilities such as neighbourhood malls, supermarkets, and plenty of food options.
