The nearest stop to River Valley road is Fort Canning station.Arif246 wrote: ↑Sun, 16 May 2021 11:18 pmDear @dupontdc @lisafuller @abby Many Thanks for your kind response.
Is there any MRT station near River Valley area? After living in Hong Kong for many years, can’t commute without it.
Is there any good condo near Buona Vista MRT? Did you like any condo in botanic gardens area?
Another concern is, I am looking for comparatively bigger space (2500 sqf above, 4-5 bedrooms). But i heard its not too common size for Condo. And I don’t want to go for Bungalow.
How is Orange Grove road and Nassim Road area? Stevens? Will be better than Newton?
Off topic: I wouldn’t mind bit higher rent if the place is convenient and kids friendly.
Thanks for your kind support as always.

Thanks for your detailed response. Really appreciate your kind comments. I want to stay near the facilities including MRT, but in a comparatively less chaotic and more kids friendly environment. That made my search bit tricky. I Checked some of the condos you mentioned, some don’t have larger unit, some not available for rent.abbby wrote: ↑Mon, 17 May 2021 1:29 pmStevens road/Orange grove does have some large condo units, however not so near to MRT, but it's a quiet area. For buona vista, not many condos, those I saw were the rochester which is next to the star vista mall and BV MRT and One north residences which is also quite near the Mall and One North MRT.
I didn't see any condos along Botanic Gardens, but along Holland there's some condos like Serenade were quite modern and nice.
You can consider the slightly older built condos (built around 2000-2010), they are usually larger in interior and have bigger rooms than newer condos.
Along river valley, older condo like valley park is near the great world mrt and mall, but layout is quite strange. Newer ones are like tribeca and cosmopolitan, all very near MRT. Nice location very central and has many good food and amenities.
No worries, hope you’re able to find a nice place.Arif246 wrote: ↑Mon, 17 May 2021 4:55 pmThanks a lotLisafuller wrote: ↑Mon, 17 May 2021 12:25 amThe nearest stop to River Valley road is Fort Canning station.Arif246 wrote: ↑Sun, 16 May 2021 11:18 pmDear @dupontdc @lisafuller @abby Many Thanks for your kind response.

Yes, the older condos are typically larger and more comfortable. New condo units are often under 1000 sq ft which can be very suffocating (although since you’re coming from Hong Kong I doubt that will be too big of an adjustment).abbby wrote: ↑Mon, 17 May 2021 1:29 pmStevens road/Orange grove does have some large condo units, however not so near to MRT, but it's a quiet area.

My main work place will be in Shenzhen, I am planning to visit HK/Shenzhen 8-10 days per month and I will be working from home in Singapore. That’s why larger space is very important for me.
In HK we live in 1087 sqf(net) apartment and we are not very happy with the house, but its in a very convenient location, its close of everything (MRT, kids school, parks, supermarket, wet markets, lots of shopping, most of things work can be done within walking distance)Lisafuller wrote: ↑Tue, 18 May 2021 12:04 amYes, the older condos are typically larger and more comfortable.
