Imagine waking up to soft morning light filtering through your windows on the upper floors of a peaceful HDB block, right in the heart of one of Singapore’s most vibrant and well-connected neighborhoods. You brew your coffee as the city slowly comes alive below you yet inside, it feels calm, private, and just right.
That’s the kind of everyday life waiting for you at 49 Dorset Road, a charming and practical home in Farrer Park Gardens. Whether you’re a couple starting your journey together, a young family looking for your own space, or someone seeking a central yet cozy city haven, this unit might just be your perfect match.
What Makes This Home Special
This 3NG HDB flat offers 731 square feet (around 68 sqm) of thoughtfully designed space. There are two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a layout that’s pleasantly squarish no awkward corners, no wasted space. It feels open, bright, and easy to live in.
Being on a high floor, the home enjoys natural breezes and sunlight throughout the day. It’s the kind of home where you rarely feel the need to turn on the fan or air-conditioning. The air flows naturally, the light lifts your mood, and the elevated view gives you a sense of peace amid the city buzz.
This is not just a flat. It’s a quiet retreat in a bustling city. It’s simple, well-kept, and full of potential for someone to make it truly their own.
Everything You Need Is Just a Walk Away
One of the biggest joys of living at 49 Dorset Road is how incredibly convenient everything is. Just a few minutes’ walk brings you to Farrer Park MRT station (NE8) sheltered all the way. Whether you’re heading to work, meeting friends in town, or running errands, getting around is quick and effortless.
And it doesn’t stop there. You’ll also be near:
Little India MRT (NE7 / DT12) and Jalan Besar MRT (DT22) so you’re connected to both the Downtown and North-East Lines
City Square Mall great for shopping, dining, or even catching a movie
Mustafa Centre the 24-hour go-to for literally anything and everything
Pek Kio Market & Food Centre where hawker favourites and fresh produce are just around the corner
Fancy brunch on Sunday? A late-night grocery run? A short walk to pick up fresh flowers or handmade kaya toast? This is a neighborhood that lets you live fully, with options everywhere you turn.
A Community You Can Belong To
Farrer Park is a special place. It has history, culture, and a sense of real community. Walk down the streets and you’ll find charming bakeries, quiet temples, indie cafes, neighborhood parks, and friendly uncles who’ve lived there for decades. It’s the kind of neighborhood where new stories are being written every day and you can be part of it.
There’s also a strong family-friendly vibe. Within just 1 km, you’ll find several well-known schools, including:
Farrer Park Primary School
St. Joseph’s Institution Junior
St. Margaret’s School (Primary)
Anglo-Chinese School (Junior)
If you’re planning ahead for your children’s education, this is the kind of location that gives you peace of mind and flexibility for the future.
A Smart Investment in City-Fringe Living
Priced at S$475,000, this unit offers one of the most accessible entry points to owning a city-fringe property in Singapore. That’s roughly S$649.79 per square foot a fair price in a mature estate like Kallang/Whampoa, where homes are known for their great connectivity and lasting value.
The area continues to develop and appreciate, and as demand for central-living grows, homes like this will become even more sought after. It’s a place to live now and a decision that’s likely to pay off in the years ahead.
People Are Already Noticing
Eight people have already marked their interest in this listing, and at least four potential buyers have made enquiries. It’s easy to see why. This home has the right combination of location, layout, comfort, and price the kind of combination that doesn’t stay on the market for long.
Final Thoughts: Could This Be Your Next Home?
Sometimes a home doesn’t just check the boxes it feels right. Maybe it’s the way the light hits the living room, or the quiet evenings just minutes away from the city center. Maybe it’s knowing your kids can walk to school. Or that your commute is just two MRT stops from the office. Or simply the peace of mind that comes with living in a place that has everything you need within arm’s reach.
If any of that sounds like the kind of life you’re looking for, then this flat at 49 Dorset Road could be exactly what you need.
