Tre Residences

Tre Residences at 7 Geylang East Avenue 1 is a 99-year leasehold condominium located in District 14, situated in the city-fringe area of Aljunied. It is an RCR (Rest of Central Region) development. Distinguished by its dual-tower architecture connected by sky bridges, the project is best known for its immediate proximity to Aljunied MRT station, offering exceptional connectivity to the CBD and Paya Lebar regional centre. It serves as a more boutique, high-convenience alternative to larger neighboring developments like Sims Urban Oasis or the newer Penrose.

Key project facts

• Type & tenure: Private residential condominium on a 99-year leasehold tenure.

• Completion & scale: Completed around 2018/2019 with 250 residential units, making it a mid-sized, relatively exclusive development compared to mega-projects in the vicinity.

• Developer: Jointly developed by a consortium comprising Sustained Land, MCC Land, and Greatview Development.

Location and connectivity

• Address & setting: Located at 7 & 9 Geylang East Avenue 1, nestled within a mature estate that blends HDB heartland convenience with city-fringe accessibility.

• MRT access: Superb connectivity with a sheltered walkway to Aljunied MRT (East-West Line) just a 3-minute walk away. This puts residents just 1 stop from Paya Lebar and 4 stops from City Hall.

• Road links: Highly accessible via the PIE and KPE, allowing for short drive times to the CBD (approx. 10–15 mins) and the vibrant Katong/East Coast area.

Layouts and design

• Unit mix: Offers a range of 1- to 4-bedroom units, including Dual Key configurations and penthouses. The unit sizes are generally compact, maximizing efficiency for urban living.

• Design approach: The two residential blocks are linked by Sky Terraces on various levels, providing pockets of greenery and views throughout the vertical space. The project is elevated from the ground level to mitigate noise from the nearby MRT tracks.

• Positioning: Primarily targets investors and working professionals who value time-saving connectivity and proximity to the Paya Lebar commercial hub over sprawling resort grounds.

Facilities and lifestyle

• Facilities: Features a Water, Earth, Sky thematic landscape with amenities distributed across different levels, including a lap pool, gym, BBQ dining pavilions, and rooftop sky patio with city views.

• Living environment: Urban and convenient. While it provides internal landscaping, the external environment is bustling, typical of a mature city-fringe estate with significant foot traffic and urban energy.

• Nearby amenities: Surrounded by rich amenities including the Geylang East Public Library, Polyclinic, and a plethora of famous eateries along Geylang/Sims Avenue. It is also just one MRT stop from PLQ Mall, Paya Lebar Square, and SingPost Centre.

Market and buyer appeal

• Resale positioning: Competitively priced for an RCR project so close to an MRT, often offering a lower entry quantum compared to newer launches in the Paya Lebar precinct.

• Rental demand: Extremely strong rental catchment due to its doorstep MRT status, appealing to expatriates working in the CBD or Changi Business Park who require a short commute.

• Key appeal: Unbeatable convenience. The combination of sheltered MRT access, proximity to the transformed Paya Lebar hub, and reputable schools like Geylang Methodist Primary School (within 1km) makes it a strategic hold for both rental yield and own-stay convenience.
