The Village @ Pasir Panjang

For anyone looking for a home near the NUS area or for a place with a good pool of potential tenants, The Village may fit the bill. It is located in District 05, at 417-471 Pasir Panjang Road, opposite West Coast Park. This a new freehold development by Champsworth Development Pte Ltd, the developers of OKIO in District 12 and Gilstead Two in District 11. T.O.P is targeted for Dec 2016.

This Singapore property has been in the market for some time and a only few units are left but its a good mix of 2,3 and 4 bedroom units. Towards the tail end, developers are often more flexible with prices so as to move the last few units faster so it definitely worth checking out The Village if you like the West Coast area or looking for a place with tenancy yield. The large potential tenant pool comes from the Science parks, NUS, NUH, expats with children in United Work College (SEA) and Japanese schools in the area.

The design of The Village is retro and the 148 residential apartments are spread between nine 5-storey blocks. The common facilities include a 50m lap pool, retro playground, 3-D tilted lawn, children's pool, gym and a 350m path for strolling, jogging or cycling.

The Village is 3-minute walk to NUS (at least to the nearest part of it as NUS is huge). Other well known schools such as ACS (International), UWCSEA (Dover), Singapore Poly, 3 Japanese schools, Nan Hua High School and Fairfield Methodist School are all a short drive away. The nearest MRT station, Haw Par Villa (CC25) is 1.6km away but is still convenient to access as bus stops are just at the door step, on Pasir Panjang Road and West Coast Highway. The bus trip is about 6-10 mins. Connectivity to other parts of Singapore is good via the AYE and West Coast Highway.

The main draw of The Village is its close proximity to NUS, NUH and Science Park II and III and the large tenant pool from these areas. It is also worth looking at for those who enjoy living in the West Coast area.
