For many landed buyers, the choice is usually between an older freehold home that needs rebuilding, or a newer house where the premium has already been built into the price. Every so often, a property sits somewhere in between, relatively new yet extensively upgraded and ready to enjoy from day one.

Built in 2023, this freehold semi-detached residence at Jalan Grisek is one such home. Designed by Brenda Ang of LAB Architects, the residence was subsequently enhanced with approximately $500,000 in renovations, additions and fittings, creating a thoughtfully considered home for modern family living.

The approximately 2,997 sqft freehold site accommodates around 5,678 sqft of built-up space, with 6+1 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. Beyond its generous proportions, however, it is the home's distinctive architecture, elevated living spaces and extensive features that make it stand out.

From its elevated living and dining areas to its private swimming pool and open roof terrace, the home offers a combination of features rarely found together in a landed residence.

Designed by Award-Winning LAB Architects

This Jalan Grisek residence was designed by Brenda Ang of LAB Architects, a Singapore architecture practice known for its contemporary residential projects.

LAB Architects has received industry recognition, including the Tatler Design Awards 2019 – Best Landed Project, adding architectural pedigree to the residence.

One of the home's more distinctive design decisions is the placement of the main living and dining areas on Level 2, rather than the conventional ground floor.

This elevated living arrangement creates a greater sense of privacy while making better use of the home's south-facing orientation. By elevating the main living spaces, the home also creates a more open and distinctive living experience compared to a conventional landed layout.

The result is a residence that feels deliberately designed around how the family lives, rather than simply built to maximise floor area.

Approximately $500,000 Invested After Completion

Although the house was completed only in 2023, the owners subsequently invested approximately $500,000 over and above the home's original specifications, further enhancing the interiors and overall living experience.

The extensive enhancements include bespoke built-in carpentry, interior fittings, CCTV and security systems, as well as branded bladeless fans. The home also comes equipped with thoughtful features for modern living, including a Schindler private home lift and a high-power 3-phase EV charging point.

Together, the original specifications and subsequent enhancements create a home that is both thoughtfully designed and extensively equipped, allowing the next owner to enjoy a move-in-ready residence without the need for major renovation works.

Private Swimming Pool for Resort-Style Living

A private swimming pool adds another dimension to the home, creating an outdoor space for family time, entertaining or simply unwinding at home.

Together with the spacious interiors and elevated living areas, the pool gives this residence a resort-like quality while retaining the practicality of a family home.

The thoughtful integration of indoor and outdoor spaces is particularly suited to Singapore's tropical climate, allowing homeowners to enjoy different areas of the house throughout the day.

Open Roof Terrace with Unblocked Views

An open roof terrace offers another distinctive space within the home, providing an elevated vantage point over the surrounding neighbourhood.

From the attic terrace, residents can enjoy unblocked views with a glimpse of Marina Bay Sands (MBS) on the skyline, a particularly attractive feature for evening relaxation and entertaining.

The elevated terrace also complements the home's south-facing orientation, creating an open-air setting to enjoy the surrounding views.

A Well-Connected Landed Home in Kembangan

Beyond the house itself, its location is another key attraction.

Situated within the established Kembangan residential enclave, the property is approximately a 10-minute walk from Kembangan MRT Station, providing convenient access to the East-West Line.

Bedok MRT, Bedok town centre and a range of everyday amenities are also within easy reach. Residents can enjoy convenient access to dining, shopping, recreational facilities and essential services in the surrounding neighbourhoods.

The area is also set to benefit from the future integrated development near Kembangan MRT, which is expected to bring additional amenities and commercial offerings to the precinct. This could further enhance the convenience and connectivity of the surrounding neighbourhood over time.

For drivers, major roads and expressways including the PIE and ECP provide connectivity to other parts of Singapore.

Within 1km of Established Schools

Families may also appreciate the property's proximity to several established schools. The home is within 1km of St. Stephen's School, Opera Estate Primary School and Telok Kurau Primary School, adding another layer of convenience for families with school-going children.
