About This Home
Tucked into the heart of Tiong Bahru's conservation district, this 3-bedroom apartment at 78 Yong Siak Street puts you within a 9-minute walk of Tiong Bahru MRT (EW17) and just as close to the neighbourhood's well-loved cafes, hawker fare, and independent bookshops that make this one of Singapore's most character-filled addresses.
Inside, the 915 sqft layout offers three proper-sized bedrooms and a renovated, functional bathroom. A good-sized balcony adds outdoor breathing room, while a heritage spiral staircase linking the kitchen is a distinctive touch rarely found in newer flats. The layout is flexible enough that the bedroom and kitchen positions can be interchanged to suit how a new owner wants to live in the space.
The block itself is low-rise (5 storeys, 48 units) with guarded security at the main entrance, built in 1973 on a 99-year lease from 1967. For anyone drawn to Tiong Bahru's walkable, low-density charm — with Havelock and Outram Park MRT stations also within reach — this is a rare chance to own in one of the most sought-after enclaves in District 3.
