Exciting residential units right in the heart of the city
Post-pandemic properties with well-designed flexible layouts and provisions that allow residents to live, work and play seamlessly have become highly desirable.
Urban living, in which homes are well connected within the city, allows residents to save on travelling time while keeping their homes a sanctuary with amenities that provide quality of life.
The M is a premium residential development nestled in the heart of Singapore’s dynamic central region. Located in the Bugis district, where the city is vibrant both in the day and at night, the 99-year leasehold, mixed-use development along Middle Road comprises three 20-storey towers and a six-storey tower with 522 residential and commercial units on the ground floor. The project has recently obtained its Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP).
With 98% of its units sold, The M presents its final offering — 10 high-floor units comprising one- bedroom-plus-study, two- and two- bedroom-plus-study apartments, including four penthouse units. With just 10 units remaining, the development presents a strong value proposition for discerning buyers seeking a centrally located property that unlocks the ultimate urban living experience.
Connected city living
The M in District 7 is nestled right in the heart of the Bugis District and offers residents unparalleled city living with a strong focus on connectivity. Only two and three MRT stops away from Raffles Place and Marina Bay Financial Centre, respectively, the development has three MRT stations within walking distance, providing easy access to multiple MRT lines.
Bugis Interchange MRT Station, closest to the development at a three-minute walk away, serves the East-West and Downtown Lines; City Hall Interchange MRT Station on the North-South and East-West Lines and Esplanade Station on the Circle Line.

Exceptional value proposition
Aside from city living, the development also offers exceptional value in today’s real estate market. The past year saw a significant reduction in price gaps between properties in the Core Central Region (CCR) and other areas.
Recent property launches in the Rest of Central Region (RCR) have consistently set new price benchmarks. As of July 2023, average prices at RCR projects have ranged between $2,464 psf and $2,734 psf. The M’s final 10 units with a starting price of $2,567 psf are good value properties in the CCR.
Among the residential offerings in Bugis, The M stands out with its attractive pricing, serving as an appealing entry point into CCR developments. The remaining two-bedroom units at The M range from 614 sq ft to 710 sq ft, and two-bedroom-plus-study units spanning 764 sq ft and 980 sq ft start at attractive low prices of $2 million. This pricing is unmatched within the CBD, making The M a unique investment opportunity.
The M is strategically positioned to benefit from the ongoing rejuvenation of the Bugis district to see long-term capital appreciation, with the government’s concerted efforts to transform the area into an extension of the CBD bearing fruit. Completed mixed-use developments like South Beach and Duo have breathed new life into the area, introducing a blend of office spaces, retail establishments and residences.
The availability of two-bedroom units at The M makes it particularly enticing for owner-occupiers looking at future capital appreciation and for investors seeking attractive rental yield. With a robust rental market and demand driven by the reopening of Singapore’s borders, The M is poised to enjoy a ready pool of tenants.
HOMEWORK®
HOMEWORK®, a new concept trademarked and launched at The M, is a creative and functional concept designed to cater to compact urban living. Units come with additional stow-away tables and large storage areas tastefully tucked away, allowing for a seamless conversion of space for different purposes.
Ample and functional common facilities such as The Boardroom, Party Lounge and The Den are areas that residents can use for socialising and work meetings, supporting The M’s HOMEWORK® concept for the new work-from-home norm for many of its residents.
Living art, living heritage
Middle Road is also witnessing a remarkable transformation, with the nearby Rochor Planning Area becoming Singapore’s hub for art, culture, and education. Rochor is home to creative institutions like LASALLE College of the Arts at McNally Street, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts at Bencoolen Street and the School of the Arts Singapore at Zubir Said Drive.
As with many projects developed by Wing Tai Asia, art is often fused with architecture by creating spaces for people to discover and explore art. At The M, a three-year partnership with LASALLE is a first-of-its-kind, organic collaboration supporting local artists that promises to infuse urban living art from LASALLE alumni into the development. This includes sculptures, 3D art and interactive displays for the residents to enjoy and will especially appeal to those who appreciate creativity and culture.

Convenience at your doorstep
The M boasts many facilities that elevate residents’ lifestyles. The focal point is a stunning 50-metre Starlight swimming pool for leisure and exercise. A jacuzzi pool offers relaxation, while the 3,000 sq ft Club M is a versatile clubhouse featuring facilities like a baking studio, gaming room, private lounge, and a flexible boardroom suitable for meetings and activities.
The development sets itself apart by providing a self-sustaining ecosystem. Its ground floor hosts a commercial area with shops and dining options for residents and the public, ensuring daily convenience and adding significant value for potential tenants.
Adding to its appeal, The M incorporates intelligent technologies such as touchless wave sensors for lift lobbies, intercoms with facial recognition, smart locks, energy-efficient solutions and QR code readers for visitor management. These smart features enhance convenience, security and energy efficiency, further elevating the value proposition for residents.
Stunning views of the city
The M’s distinctive feature is its elevated apartments, offering stunning views of the Civic and Cultural District and the nearby Bugis area. It is an urban oasis for residents, providing a serene escape from city life while staying central to all the action.
This last phase of high-floor units consists of three one-plus-study apartments, five two-bedroom units and two two-plus-study units. Four are penthouse units located on the 20th storey with double the living volume and dining spaces, making them perfect for hosting or a work-from-home set-up.
