Faber Residence Offers Rare Waterfront Living Clementi’s Exclusive Private Enclave
GuocoLand’s Faber Residence: Bringing Modern Luxury Homes to Clementi
Faber Residence by GuocoLand is the latest highly-anticipated development set to redefine modern luxury living in Clementi. This award-winning developer’s signature design ethos will be on full display in this 399-unit riverfront condo, which is the first of its kind to be launched in the area in over a decade.
Strategically located between the serene Faber Hills landed estate and the lush greenery of Sungei Ulu Pandan river, Faber Residence boasts excellent connectivity to nearby schools, transportation networks, and regional commercial hubs.
The development is also well connected to an extensive public transport and road network, with the future Jurong Townhall MRT station on the Jurong Region Line (JRL) within walking distance. There will also be a direct link to bus stops along the Ayer Rajah Expressway (AYE), and the project is only four stops away from Clementi MRT station and Jurong East Interchange.
Strategically Positioned in Clementi
Positioned in one of the most exclusive residential areas in Clementi, the development offers the assurance of moving into an established and mature neighborhood. This is made possible by the convenience of numerous schools, well-connected public transport networks, and amenities like shopping malls.
With a high concentration of schools and educational institutions in the vicinity, Faber Residence is an attractive choice for families with school-going children. It is conveniently located less than 1km from the reputable Nan Hua Primary School, and other nearby primary schools include Qifa Primary School, Clementi Primary School, and Pei Tong Primary School.
There are also several esteemed educational institutions in the area, including NUS High School of Math and Science, Singapore Polytechnic, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, and the NUS campus at Kent Ridge.
Designed to evoke a serene environment, Faber Residence boasts 18 interconnected courtyards that are seamlessly integrated into the landscape.
Meanwhile, the upcoming Jurong Townhall MRT station, set to be completed by 2028, will only be one stop away from the Jurong East MRT interchange, which connects multiple MRT lines, including the JRL, East-West Line, North-South Line, and the future Cross Island Line.
The JRL is Singapore’s seventh MRT line, serving areas in the western region such as the Jurong Innovation District, Nanyang Technological University, and Tengah HDB town. It will have an interchange at Jurong East MRT station, which already connects the North-South and East-West Lines. When the Cross Island Line is completed, Clementi Station will also be an interchange.
Besides its excellent MRT connectivity, the AYE and PIE provide quick road access to commercial hubs in the west, such as the Jurong Lake District, which is only a 10-minute drive away. Buona Vista and the one-north precinct are also a short 15-minute drive from the development.
Faber Residence is also well situated within close proximity to several shopping malls in Clementi and Jurong East, including Westgate, JEM, and Clementi Mall. It is only a 15-minute drive to Holland Village, and the upscale lifestyle destinations of Dempsey Hill and Tanglin are just 20 minutes away.
The neighboring Faber Walk estate also offers a wide range of amenities, including markets, hawker centers, shophouses, and a polyclinic. Other nearby community facilities include Clementi Stadium, West Coast Recreation Centre, and Clementi Sports Hall.
Ideal for HDB Upgraders and Affluent Buyers
Clementi’s attractive location supports a resilient resale market, with a large pool of HDB upgraders, affluent private home buyers, and tenants. The demand for new private residential developments in the area has been on the rise, thanks to strong HDB resale transaction volumes and prices.
Recent caveats show that the most recent new project launch in Clementi, Elta, recorded an average price of $2,548 psf for its 501 units. The development was launched in February and has since sold 341 units (68%).
As the newest condo in Clementi, Faber Residence is sure to capture the interest of residents in the surrounding towns and estates, such as Jurong East, Jurong West, Bukit Batok, and Choa Chu Kang. Many potential buyers could be HDB upgraders living in these areas, including young families with parents already residing nearby. At the same time, the project is also appealing to residents living in the surrounding landed estates who are looking to right-size their homes. Families with children of varying ages will also find Faber Residence an attractive option, given its proximity to schools and universities.
Resident Amenities and Nature at Your Doorstep
Designed by P&T Consultants, Faber Residence’s design concept and architecture seamlessly incorporate lush greenery and the natural flow of the river. The condo comprises nine 5-storey residential blocks, which complement the adjacent landed estate with their low-rise profile.
The development features a mix of two- to five-bedroom units, showcasing GuocoLand’s best practices in home design, including highly efficient layouts and meticulously adjusted unit orientation that ensures a comfortable living experience.
The URA Master Plan has identified a crucial aspect of decentralisation – the effort to bring employment and amenities closer to residential areas. This strategy will greatly benefit Sembawang, with plans to develop regional centres and commercial nodes, such as the Woodlands Regional Centre in the North Region. Being the largest economic hub in the North, the Woodlands Regional Centre will offer a wide range of job opportunities in various sectors, including business services, technology, and logistics. This development is a significant boost for residents of Sembawang Road EC as it reduces the need for long commutes to the Central Business District and improves work-life balance.
The blocks are also thoughtfully oriented towards the river, landscaped grounds, or the surrounding landed estate to offer tranquil views for all residents. Selected units also enjoy unblocked views of the river and its expansive green riverbanks – a rare sight among new projects in Singapore today.
Elements of the natural riverside landscape are reflected in the development’s landscape design, which features three parallel swimming pools – a 50m lap pool, a leisure pool, and a wading pool. The southern edge of the development also includes a green corridor, interwoven with key recreational amenities, such as the Club House, gym, and dining pavilion. Over time, this landscape will merge visually with the upcoming Old Jurong Line Nature Trail, creating a seamless extension of greenery.
Each of the 18 interconnected courtyards at Faber Residence is designed to provide a serene environment that seamlessly integrates with the outdoors. These courtyards boast open vistas, intimate garden spaces, tranquil lily ponds, and elegant pavilions, among other features, designed to encourage residents to immerse themselves in nature and promote relaxation.
Faber Residence offers rare riverfront living in the exclusive landed home precinct of Clementi, providing an excellent opportunity to buy into the area’s future, including upcoming MRT lines and proximity to reputable schools. The development perfectly encapsulates everything that makes Clementi an attractive place to live.
