Situated on prime District 10 in the heart of Bukit Timah, Fourth Avenue Residences was launched earlier this year to much fanfare. The reason? It’s a remarkable location. The 99-year leasehold condo, when built by Dec 2022, will sit right next to Sixth Ave MRT along the Downtown Line, with direct sheltered access to the station. That, and the fact that it’s sitting within one of the most prestigious neighbourhoods in Singapore.
Update: Fourth Avenue Residences is currently 98% sold.

The site was won at $553m or $1,540 psf per plot ratio by developer Allgreen Properties, who is also known for other luxury condominiums like RV Residences, SkySuites@Anson, The Sorrento, and One Devonshire. Fourth Avenue Residences will be eventually part of the developer’s The Bukit Timah Collection, a trio of luxury housing within Bukit Timah that will also comprise Juniper Hill (the former Crystal Tower) as well as the former Royalville.

When it comes to location, there’s much to shout about for Fourth Avenue Residences, whether it’s relating to transportation options, the accessibility to amenities, or the choice of schools.
Site of Fourth Avenue Residences
Nestled amidst a Good Class Bungalow (GCB) zone, the condo gets to enjoy relatively unblocked views, particularly for units on higher floors, as the surrounding building heights are restricted to only two storeys.

Types of Units and Pricing
There are a total of 476 units, filled into nine blocks of between two and 10 storeys. Buyers can choose from 1- to 4-bedroom units. Luxury living continues in the interiors of Fourth Avenue Residences with the apartments decked out in marble flooring for the communal areas and timber for the bedrooms. Kitchens are fully furnished with top-of-the-range appliances from brands like Miele and De Dietrich. The master bedroom’s wardrobe also comes with full-height glass panels for that extra exclusive feel.
1-BEDROOM
Size: 474 – 517 sqft
Getting a smaller unit is one way to maximise rental yield, if you’re looking to buy to rent. This 1-bedroom type packs all the essentials within its limited square footage. The communal facilities are set in a single line for an open-plan layout that improves traffic and light and air flow.
2-BEDROOM
Size: 624 – 646 sqft
For 2-bedroom units, there are several layouts to opt for. Some units come with both bedrooms located at opposite ends with the communal spaces in the middle, while some units come with bedrooms located on the same side and the communal spaces on the other side. There’s also a unit type that affords more privacy to the master bedroom, as it’s located right at the end and doesn’t face the communal spaces directly.
2-BEDROOM PREMIUM
Size: 689 – 721 sqft
Unlike the 2-bedroom units, the premium ones come with an additional bathroom, with the master bedroom having its own en suite. There are some layouts that feature a larger common bathroom, which can work with a tub. If you prefer more privacy from nosy neighbours, opt for the units whose front entrances face only the kitchen without a view of the living room.
3-BEDROOM
Size: 915 – 969 sqft
Some units come with an extended foyer area, which is great for folks with an extensive shoe collection or if you just want a bit more privacy from prying eyes. Kitchens in the 3-bedroom units feature a boxy, galley layout and you can work in a dry and wet kitchen concept with the dining area. If you’ve always wanted an open concept bathroom for your master en suite, Type C6 is worth a consideration as the flexible space allows you to hack the walls of the bathroom.
3-BEDROOM + STUDY
Size: 1,076 – 1,130 sqft
The 3-Bedroom + Study options are a huge upgrade. You get a laundry and yard area, an extra toilet, an open study area that can essentially double as another bedroom or a guest room, as well as a balcony with access via the master bedroom. Pay attention to the kitchen, yard area, as some units come with a larger kitchen but a smaller yard, and others come with a larger yard but smaller kitchen.
4-BEDROOM + STUDY
Size: 1,475 – 1,496 sqft
The 4-bedroom units have an additional suite, a Junior Master Bedroom that comes with its own en-suite bathroom. The main master bedroom is extremely spacious, with an en suite that has a fitted bathtub. In the communal areas, the living and dining rooms are in a large, open space while the kitchens are separated into wet and dry areas, making it the perfect setting for frequent hosts. Take note of the difference in layouts. Some units come with front entrances facing into the living room, while others are more private and face the foyer storage area. Also note that some layouts come with the Junior Master Bedroom separated from the Master Bedroom, while others are located adjacent to one another.

Final Thoughts
While most of the condominiums in the area are freehold, Fourth Avenue Residences’ proximity to Sixth Ave MRT is so good that it offsets its leasehold status. Plus, if you’re thinking of buying to rent, a leasehold condo might be a better option to maximise your rental yield as they tend to be slightly cheaper.
Location is stellar, in terms of transportation, amenities and accessibility to local and international schools. There’s also a good selection of units to choose from, catering to a wide range of lifestyle and family needs.
The only minor gripe we can think of is that it faces Bukit Timah Road. This major arterial road is heavily used in all parts of the day and is particularly busy during peak periods. Thankfully though, units at Fourth Avenue Residences won’t be directly facing the traffic as it’s buffered by the MRT station, the greenery as well as the tennis court.
