Completed around 2002–2003 by MCL Land, it offers only 65 large-format apartments across two 10‑storey blocks, combining low-density privacy with a central, prestigious address near Orchard and top schools.

Facilities & lifestyle

• Swimming pool and pool deck
• Gymnasium
• Tennis court
• Children’s playground
• BBQ pits
• Landscaped gardens and seating areas
• Basement/ground parking and 24‑hour security

The scale and design lean towards a quiet, resort‑like residential feel rather than a “club resort” mega‑condo, which suits households who prefer privacy and less crowding.

Location & connectivity

The development sits within a coveted, leafy Balmoral/Goodwood Hill enclave:

• Near Newton MRT (North–South and Downtown Lines), typically a short walk or a brief bus ride depending on route
• One MRT stop to Orchard, quick train/bus ride to the CBD and Marina Bay
• Easy vehicle access via Bukit Timah Road, Scotts Road, PIE and CTE
• Minutes to Orchard Road malls (ION, Scotts Square, Far East Plaza, etc.) and Newton Food Centre

Nearby schools and amenities:

• In a strong school belt: near Anglo-Chinese School (Primary/Barker), Singapore Chinese Girls’ School, St. Joseph’s Institution Junior and other top schools
• Short drive to medical facilities at Novena and Orchard, plus numerous enrichment centres and clubs in the Bukit Timah/Novena area

Key appeal

• Freehold, low‑density condo (only 65 units) in a prime District 10 landed/condo enclave
• Very spacious 3‑ and 4‑bedroom layouts, ideal for families and multi‑generational living
• Quiet, upscale residential environment yet minutes from Orchard and Newton MRT
• Long‑term appeal as a “legacy” type property due to land size, freehold tenure and prestigious locale

Balmoral Residences is especially suited for buyers who value space, privacy and a classic prime district lifestyle more than having an extensive list of hyper‑modern facilities, making it a timeless family home choice in the Newton–Bukit Timah belt.
