For those who seek a luxurious residence in the midst of their hectic lives, Fraser Centrepoint has a solution for your endless search at Seaside Residences.
Their upcoming project at East Coast of Singapore, slated to be delivered in the coming years is certainly one of its kind project.
The group battled out with 7 other property developers for this huge plot of land (207,847 sq ft) on Siglap Road under the Government Land Sales (GLS) programme back in January 2016, with a winning bid of S$624.18 million.
If you’ve been a big fan of properties in the East Coast – or rather along to coastal shorelines, there haven’t been any new launches or land sales within the precinct in recent years.
So what has Fraser Centrepoint to offer prospective buyers in today’s property market? Let’s take a look.
Seaside Residences Developer
Fraser Property is probably one of the top and most renowned property developers in Singapore, with property developments and investments all over across Asia, Europe and Australia.
In Singapore, their business focuses not only on the residential property segment, but also commercial – mainly shopping malls as well.
Under the group’s brand, it has constructed and sold more than 17,000 residential homes in Singapore (which includes Soleil @ Sinaran at Novena and RiverTree Residences at Fernvale), managing a total of 12 malls (such as Northpoint, Centrepoint, Causeway Point) and 10 commercial office developments (such as China Square Central and Alexandra Technopark).
Their most recent well-known success being North Park Residences at Yishun Central – a mega mixed-use property development with 910 homes constructed above a shopping mall (an extension of the current Northpoint).
The other developer involved in this project is Sekisui House. It is also the developer for the upcoming mega project, One Holland Village Residences.
Seaside Residences Location
The positioning of Seaside Residences location is certainly a rarity in today’s market as the development is being fronted by the East Coast shoreline which will offer most residents an unblocked sea view and accessibility to the East Coast Park for some recreational activities.
On top of what it has to offer within its proximity, what has really attracted potential buyers is the convenient location of the Seaside Residences.
- Located a stone’s throw from the upcoming Siglap MRT (part of the Thomson-East Coast MRT Line), the condo will be well-connected via train to the entire city of Singapore.
- Apart from the convenience of the train service by the time that Seaside Residences is completed, a number of expressways like the Ayer Rajah Expressway, East Coast Expressway and Pan Island Expressway are located not far from the plot, making it’s connectivity via driving an even more attractive feature.
- A number of shopping centres and schools (such as Victoria School & Junior College and Tao Nan School) await those who are interested in condos that provide luxury and convenience all in one development.
Seaside Residences Condo Facilities
Seaside Residences condo boasts of modern amenities in order to match high-quality living preferences of residents. The development will feature a 115 metre-long infinity pool and also a sky terrace between the 14th storey to 16th storey – a 3-storey ceiling height.
On top of that, there will also be a sunken courtyard, clubhouses, jacuzzi, cascading water feature, children’s playground, function room, BBQ areas, outdoor fitness station, swimming pool, and a sun deck – a fun-filled lifestyle awaits at the Seaside Residences.
Modern styling and competitive pricing make living at Seaside Residences a dream for mid to upper-class residents. Moreover, the wide-range of unit types are suitable for small and large families alike.
The condo has been designed to cater to the needs and requirements of families.
In order to live up to its name, Fraser Centrepoint mentioned that Seaside Residence has been designed with the intent to offer gorgeous unblocked sea views – with 70% of the units being fronting towards the sea.

Seaside Residences Price Analysis
The Seaside Residences price guide was given by the media on 11 January 2017 was in the range between S$1,550 to S$1,650 per square foot (psf), thus a 1-bedroom could be easily be priced from S$700,000 onwards.
As of 24 February 2019, based on given sources from various marketing agencies, here is an indication on Seaside Residences price:
- 1-Bedroom from S$956,000
- 1-Bedroom + Study from S$1,030,000
- 2-Bedroom from S$1,286,000
- 3-Bedroom from S$1,862,000
- 4-Bedroom from $2,820,000
- Penthouse – $6,673,000
The price does seem reasonable enough, but assuming the median psf price is S$1,600, how does the Seaside Residences price compare with its more prominent neighbouring resale condos?
PROJECT NAME | TENURE | COMPLETION | NO. OF UNITS | AVERAGE PSF (S$) |
LAGUNA PARK | 99-YEAR | 1978 | 516 | 817 |
MANDARIN GARDENS | 99-YEAR | 1986 | 1000 | 905 |
VILLA MARINA | 99-YEAR | 1999 | 432 | 886 |
FERNWOOD TOWERS | FREEHOLD | 1994 | 215 | 1,097 |
SEASIDE RESIDENCES | 99-YEAR | 2021 | 843 | ~1,600 |
The above figures are extracted based on transaction data from the last 6 months (from 23 January 2017). Notice that the nearby resale condos are very much older and dated, thus prices much lower than the brand new Seaside Residences, especially for those which are also leasehold properties as their lease term shortens.
Lets do a price comparison with some of the newer completed condos along the East Coast shoreline.
PROJECT NAME | TENURE | COMPLETION | NO. OF UNITS | AVERAGE PSF (S$) |
SILVERSEA | 99-YEAR | 2014 | 383 | 1,346 |
THE MEYERISE | FREEHOLD | 2014 | 239 | 1,969 |
SEASIDE RESIDENCES | 99-YEAR | 2021 | 843 | ~1,600 |
It does seem like the choices are very much limited for buyers looking at only newer developments, and the premium to pay for is almost twice as much as the much older ones.
