What do Klimt Cairnhill, Orchard Sophia, Parksuites, and 19 Nassim have in common? They’re all prime district condos, located in the Core Central Region (CCR), and they’re amazing options if you’re looking for a luxury home or investment property.

Why Buy Condos in Prime Districts in Singapore?

Location is key when it comes to Singapore property, and buying a home in a prime district is the dream of many.
Prime district properties are coveted as they are located in or near the city centre and typically enjoy excellent connectivity. They are also popular amongst investors as they generally retain their value well – many even increasing over time – and tend to enjoy strong rental demand from affluent tenants.
Property in prime districts also tends to be luxurious, which is a boon for buyers who long for a touch of class.
