This year’s EdgeProp Singapore Excellence Awards received about 9,000 votes from members of the public who have crowned freehold condo MeyerHouse with the People’s Choice award for completed residential projects. Located in an affluent residential estate on 128 Meyer Road in Marine Parade, the development sits in the highly coveted Katong district and has close proximity to the East Coast Park beach. The 56-unit property is located on a large one-hectare plot within a landed housing zone.
Jointly developed by UOL Group and Kheng Leong Co, the project in prime District 15 was completed last year and houses 56 spacious units. These comprise a mix of 10 three-bedroom apartments each occupying between 1,862 and 2,013 sq ft, and 40 four-bedders which take up between 2,820 and 3315 sq ft. The remaining six units are duplex penthouses, which have five bedrooms each. The penthouses take up between 5,662 and 5,683 sq ft each.
MeyerHouse’s spacious apartments make the property a great choice for homeowners who seek privacy and large-sized homes in land-scarce Singapore, and at the same time desire to be surrounded by natural environments and breathtaking views.

Award-winning design
The property has been designed by the acclaimed local architectural firm Woha, which has developed an edge in tropical architecture and urbanism. MeyerHouse’s unique locality near the coastline of East Coast Park and lush park gives the property an added advantage in enhancing its design. Residents at the property can enjoy the views of the development’s gardens that lead to an adjacent park and cascade down to a lower water courtyard.
The green landscapes at MeyerHouse were designed by Singapore-based landscape architecture studio Ramboll Studio Dreiseitl, now known as Henning Larsen. Inspired by the English countryside, the designer has sculptured a landscape of crisp-cut hedges, soft grasses and flowering shrubs which provide vibrant splashes of colour across the garden. The seamless blend with the greenery from surrounding areas adds to the eye-watering view.

The garden also features Katong Park’s Heritage Tree, the Eucalyptus Deglupta, which has a rainbow-coloured trunk. This is the signature tree for the development and provides visual interest in its garden. To enhance its aesthetic and green elements, the developers took it upon themselves to upgrade and beautify the adjacent public park, Meyer Road Playground. The upgrade includes installing new fitness equipment and a playground at the park. This has improved the social value of the park and benefited the community at Meyer Road and the general public.
MeyerHouse’s exceptional design has earned it the Design of the Year award at the Singapore Institute of Architects’ Architectural Design Awards 2022.
High degree of privacy
MeyerHouse has maximised its locality by offering a high degree of privacy in its systems, creating a more exclusive and luxurious environment for its residents. The condo is the first in Singapore to offer a dedicated lift and private entrance lobby to each unit that brings residents from the carpark lots to their apartments. There are also dedicated, attached private parking spaces for occupants of the four-bedroom units and penthouses.

The property leverages the low-rise nature of the surrounding development and the natural park adjacent to the site to provide privacy, given adjacent condos. It also provides privacy away from the eyes of fellow residents by ensuring maximum separation of units.
