The Greenwood is a culmination of FEO's wide-ranging expertise in residential design development honed through nearly 50 years of housing Singaporeans. One aspect that distinguishes The Greenwood is the holistic approach to design and space planning. Careful consideration was made at the initial stages of design to understand what homeowners really want. By really listening to its customers and understanding their lifestyle needs, FEO has created a landed housing concept that sets itself apart from the rest.

The Greenwood is designed to allow homeowners to fully enjoy the vast expanse of space in their homes. Living spaces for the family have been maximised with a built-up area of almost 4,000 sq ft.

The standard of design features and high-end fittings has been continued in Phase 3 of this much sought-after development.

One of the most immediately apparent qualities of the design is the light and airiness in each home. Thanks to well-designed spaces and a skylight that converts the stairwell into a light-well, the centre of the house is almost luminous. Careful attention is paid to the way air flows through the house, keeping it cool and comfortable at all times.

Another key design feature are the large rooms. The master bedroom is especially large because it was designed for those with aspirations for refined living as well as those who are already accustomed to luxury. At around 377 sq ft, the master bedroom is almost 50 per cent larger than the average master bedroom in new developments. There is a large ensuite walk-through wardrobe and master bathroom which has a sunken jacuzzi bath. Thoughtful design touches also allowed for a small ledge with a parapet wall just beyond the jacuzzi. With lush landscaping, the atmosphere of an outdoor bath can easily be achieved.

A new feature in Phase 3 is in the design of the living and dining areas, which now flow as an expanse of uninterrupted space on one level minus the dividing steps. This thoughtful layout creates greater flexibility for different family lifestyles and needs, be it as a fluid, generous entertainment space or to accommodate the easy movement of family members.

Another unique feature is the roof garden. The addition of the green space on the roof gives The Greenwood the feeling of being buffered by nature on all sides, extending one's relationship with the land. On the ground floor nature is brought into the home with the garden forming an extension of the living and dining areas. The bedroom here opens out into the garden to achieve an indoor/outdoor feel, an important attribute that defines modern tropical living. If it is not required it can be added to the kitchen to make it even larger.

This key space in the home has also been given extra thought. Not only are wet and dry areas carefully incorporated into the kitchen design but the dry kitchen can also be completely shut off from the wet kitchen so that if you choose, you can have a display kitchen with an island counter-top that doubles as a serving area for special functions.

Good Location

Apart from design, there are other important factors to consider too. The stretch of Dunearn Road and Bukit Timah closest to The Greenwood has some of Singapore's top-ranking schools. These include Methodist Girls' School, Anglo Chinese School, Chinese High School, Singapore Chinese Girls' School and Raffles Girls' School, which is within walking distance from The Greenwood.

It is hard to argue with the advantages of a good location. The Greenwood is also in District 11, easily recognised as one of the most coveted districts in Singapore. It is not only just minutes to Orchard Road and the Central Business District but being centrally located, it is also close to popular recreational clubs like the Singapore Island Country Club, Raffles Town Club and Tanglin Club. You will also be close to the popular food haven of Holland Village.

But you won't really want to leave the neighbourhood often. Greenwood Avenue is fast becoming an enclave for those with discerning tastes. In the last few years, several restaurants have opened there, giving the neighbourhood a distinctive cosmopolitan flavour. On the same strip, you will find a famous bakery, gelateria, and butchery that has an almost cult following.

There are also pragmatic factors to consider when buying a home. It isn't very often that a development like The Greenwood comes onto the market because large sites for landed residential homes in the top districts are very rare indeed.

When buying a new home, you will want to know that experts have designed your home. You will want tangible as well as intangible benefits. At The Greenwood, we have considered them all for you.
