Google search ‘Marine Parade condo for rent’, and you will get a list of condos that are popular among expatriates in Singapore. Trouble is, condos located in District 15 near East Coast Park don’t come cheap, with rents exceeding those of many suburban areas elsewhere.
That’s hardly surprising considering that the East Coast is one of the most popular areas to live in. And for good reason too: it’s close to East Coast Park and the area boasts some of the best waterfront condos with sea views in Singapore. Furthermore, most of the condos in the area were built between the 1980s and early 2000s, which means that they’re built big.
