St Regis Residences Singapore
How many condominiums in Singapore let you ring a butler for the in-room laundry and still draft your floor plan onto a 999-year leasehold? The answer is essentially one. St Regis Residences Singapore sits at 29 Tanglin Road in the heart of District 10’s Tanglin enclave as the only branded residence in town wired directly into the adjoining five-star St Regis hotel — signature service, private lift lobbies, and a 999-year tenure commencing 1995 that the URA caveat record still treats as the local proxy for freehold (as of 2026-05).
The development’s 173 units topped out in 2008, which means buyers today are evaluating a mature branded residence with 17 years of transaction history rather than a glossy launch brochure. The data tells a specific story: low turnover, tight pricing, and a tenancy book that holds steady through cooling-measure cycles. For ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) buyers comparing Cuscaden, Ardmore, and Nassim addresses (as of 2026-05), St Regis Residences is the unusual case where the brand premium is operationally real — you are paying for service, not just signage on the porte-cochere.
Overview & Key Facts
St Regis Residences Singapore is not merely a luxury condominium — it is Singapore’s original branded residence, and one of the most significant residential propositions in Asia’s private property market. Completed in 2008 and comprising 173 units across two 23-storey towers, the development was conceived as the residential wing of The St. Regis Singapore — a 299-room ultra-luxury hotel operated by Marriott International under its most prestigious brand. The developer consortium reads like a roll call of Singapore’s property aristocracy: City Developments Limited (CDL), Hong Leong Holdings, and TID Pte Ltd (a joint venture between Hong Leong and Japan’s Mitsui Fudosan). CDL, Singapore’s largest listed developer by revenue, brings a track record that includes the South Beach mixed-use complex, Irwell Hill Residences, and the St. Regis project itself — a pedigree that underpins the construction quality and long-term management commitment.
What separates St Regis Residences from every conventional luxury condominium in Singapore is the branded-residence model. Owners gain access to the legendary St. Regis Butler Service — a white-glove concierge tradition originating from the original St. Regis New York in 1904 — as well as fee-based hotel services including in-residence dining, housekeeping, laundry, babysitting, and catering from the adjoining hotel. Through Marriott’s ONVIA owner recognition platform, residents receive VIP status across the global Marriott portfolio, including complimentary upgrades and guaranteed availability at St. Regis and Ritz-Carlton properties worldwide. This is a living arrangement that blurs the boundary between private home and five-star hotel — and for a certain segment of ultra-high-net-worth buyers, that integration is the entire value proposition.
The tenure story is exceptional: a 999-year lease from 1995, which in practical terms is indistinguishable from freehold. With over 960 years remaining, lease decay is a non-factor for any investment horizon conceivable — and in District 10’s luxury market, where tenure commands a measurable premium, this effectively freehold status is a structural advantage. The pricing reflects the ultra-luxury positioning: an average PSF of S$2,531 over the past twelve months, an average transaction price of S$6,721,508, and a median of S$5,400,000. These are not numbers that invite casual interest. The average monthly rent of S$13,889 (median S$12,800) produces a gross yield of 2.84% — modest by mass-market standards, but consistent with the capital-preservation profile of branded ultra-luxury assets where yield is secondary to prestige, lifestyle, and long-term value retention. The profitability score of 22/100 is honest about the reality: this is a residence for wealth holders, not yield chasers.
Location & Connectivity
St Regis Residences occupies one of the most unambiguously prestigious addresses in Singapore: 31 Tanglin Road, at the intersection of Tanglin Road and Cuscaden Road in District 10’s Core Central Region. The immediate surroundings form Singapore’s diplomatic and luxury corridor — the British High Commission, the Australian High Commission, and a cluster of embassies line Napier Road and Tanglin Road, lending the neighbourhood an atmosphere of quiet authority that few residential precincts in Asia can replicate. The St. Regis Singapore hotel adjoins the residences directly, and within a short walk stand the Four Seasons Hotel, the Shangri-La Singapore, and the Regent Singapore — a concentration of five-star hospitality that defines the character of this micro-neighbourhood.
Transit connectivity has been transformed by the Thomson-East Coast Line. Napier MRT (TEL, TE12) is approximately 460 metres from the development — a comfortable 6-minute walk that connects residents directly to the CBD, Marina Bay, and the East Coast corridor. Orchard Boulevard MRT (TEL, TE13) is 570 metres away, and the Orchard MRT interchange (NSL, NS22) is just 600 metres — placing three MRT stations across two major lines within walking distance. Before the TEL opened, this stretch of Tanglin Road was considered somewhat isolated from rail transit; the new stations have materially enhanced the location’s connectivity credentials. For drivers, the Tanglin Road–Orchard Road arterial network provides access to the CTE, PIE, and AYE expressways, though peak-hour congestion along Orchard Road remains a persistent constraint.
For families, the educational accessibility is strong, with a tilt toward international schools befitting the expatriate-heavy demographic. Chatsworth International School is just 110 metres away — effectively on the doorstep. ISS International School is 480 metres, and Methodist Girls’ School (Primary) is 640 metres, placing it within the coveted 1km priority enrolment radius for one of Singapore’s most sought-after girls’ schools. The Tanglin Road corridor is also home to the Tanglin Trust School campus and is within easy driving distance of the international school cluster along Bukit Timah Road. For ultra-high-net-worth families with globally mobile lifestyles, the concentration of international schools is a decisive practical advantage.

Facilities
The facilities at St Regis Residences must be understood through a fundamentally different lens than those of a conventional condominium. This is not a development that competes on the number of swimming pools or the size of its gymnasium — it competes on hotel-integrated service, a proposition that no standard residential development in Singapore can replicate. The centrepiece of the offering is access to the St. Regis Butler Service, a white-glove tradition dating to 1904 and the founding of the St. Regis New York by John Jacob Astor IV. Residents can call upon trained butlers for personal requests ranging from the practical — in-residence dining, laundry, pressing, and housekeeping — to the bespoke: event coordination, childcare arrangements, and personalised concierge support. These are fee-based services drawn from the adjoining 299-room St. Regis Hotel, available on demand.
The on-site residential facilities include a swimming pool set within landscaped grounds between the two towers, a well-equipped gymnasium, a tennis court (a genuine rarity among District 10 luxury condominiums of this vintage), BBQ pavilions, a playground, and a clubhouse. The Cigar Lounge is a distinctive touch that reflects the ultra-luxury positioning — a quiet retreat for residents who appreciate the ritual. With only 173 units sharing these facilities across two towers, crowding is virtually non-existent. The pool deck is tranquil even on weekends, and the tennis court is accessible without the booking competition that plagues developments with 500+ units.
“The butler service is the real differentiator. You can have dinner sent up from the hotel restaurant, your shirts pressed while you sleep, a car arranged before you’ve finished your coffee. It’s not a gimmick — it changes how you live day to day. The physical facilities are fine but honestly secondary to the service layer. The pool is quiet, the gym is adequate, and there’s a tennis court. But you don’t buy here for the gym — you buy here for the lifestyle.”

Beyond the on-site facilities, residents enjoy privileged access to the hotel’s amenities: the Remède Spa, the hotel’s fine-dining restaurants (including Yan Ting for Cantonese cuisine), the hotel pool and fitness centre, and the business centre. Through Marriott’s ONVIA platform, owners are enrolled in the Marriott Bonvoy loyalty programme at an elevated tier, unlocking benefits across Marriott’s global portfolio of over 8,000 properties. This creates a travel ecosystem that extends the St. Regis living experience beyond Singapore — complimentary upgrades at Ritz-Carlton, W Hotels, and St. Regis properties worldwide are tangible perks that compound over time. The facilities rating of 9.0–9.5 reflects this unique combination of hotel-grade service, branded amenity access, and residential exclusivity — a package that no un-branded condominium in Singapore can match.
Unit Sizes & Layout
St Regis Residences offers 173 units across two 23-storey towers, with a unit mix that is exclusively large-format — there are no 1-bedroom or 2-bedroom units in the development. The configurations begin at 3-bedroom (from approximately 1,507 sqft), extend through 3-bedroom + entertainment room and 4-bedroom (up to approximately 2,594 sqft for standard units), and culminate in seven exclusive Sky Suites (4,300–6,000 sqft) and seven Sky Villas (5,000–7,200 sqft) — duplex penthouses with private roof decks, plunge pools, and entertainment terraces. This is a unit mix that makes an unambiguous statement: St Regis Residences was designed for families and ultra-high-net-worth individuals who require space, not for the compact-unit investment buyer.
The interior specification reflects the era of peak luxury ambition in which the development was conceived. Kitchens feature Bulthaup cabinet systems imported from Germany, Corian solid-surface countertops by DuPont, and Miele stainless-steel appliances — a specification that remains competitive with new-launch ultra-luxury projects nearly two decades later. Bedrooms are fitted with Truggelmann wardrobe systems (also German), and bathrooms feature Kaldewei long baths and Dornbracht fixtures — hardware that carries a quiet authority recognised by buyers who understand the difference between branded premium and aspirational mid-range. Every unit is served by a private lift, eliminating shared corridor interaction and delivering the kind of arrival privacy that defines the ultra-luxury segment.
The tower orientation has been carefully planned to maximise views while managing the equatorial sun. Units facing the Nassim Hill and Botanic Gardens direction command premium pricing and unobstructed greenery views that are protected by the low-rise diplomatic enclave surrounding the development. The Tanglin Road frontage units overlook the hotel wing and the broader Orchard Road skyline. Higher-floor units in both towers capture increasingly expansive sightlines — the Sky Villas on the top floors enjoy 360-degree vistas that rank among the most commanding residential views in central Singapore. At 18 years since TOP, buyers should inspect individual units for the condition of fittings and finishes, though the quality of the original specification (Bulthaup, Miele, Dornbracht) means well-maintained units have aged with dignity rather than decline.

Pricing & Market Position
Based on 51 recorded transactions, sale prices range from $3,800,000 to $14,000,000, averaging $6,697,557 (~$2,534 psf).
Rents range from $5,700 to $48,000 per month across 256 rental transactions. Current rental yield sits at approximately 2.8%.
Price Appreciation
From 2021 to 2026, the average PSF has declined by 0.5% (from $2,539 to $2,527 psf).
Neighbourhood Comparison
The comparison exercise for St Regis Residences is complicated by its unique branded-residence status — there is no exact like-for-like in District 10. Skye at Holland at S$2,945 psf on a 99-year leasehold offers newer construction (TOP 2026) and a Holland Village lifestyle, but it is an un-branded conventional condominium without hotel services, butler access, or Marriott VIP benefits. At S$414 psf more than St Regis on a per-square-foot basis — and with 99-year lease versus 999-year — Skye at Holland’s premium rests entirely on newer finishes and a different neighbourhood character. For buyers who prioritise product freshness, Skye at Holland may appeal; for those who value branded services and effectively freehold tenure, St Regis offers more structural substance at a lower PSF.
Leedon Green at S$2,784 psf provides freehold tenure in the Farrer Road green corridor — a less central but undeniably attractive residential setting. Designed by Yip Yuen Hong of ip:li Architects, Leedon Green offers contemporary luxury finishes and a generous landscape ratio. The PSF gap between Leedon Green and St Regis is modest (S$253), but the comparison is illuminating: Leedon Green delivers newer finishes and freehold tenure, while St Regis delivers 999-year tenure (functionally equivalent), branded hotel services, and substantially larger unit sizes. For families who need 1,500+ sqft of living space and value the butler service, St Regis remains compelling despite its age. For buyers who prioritise architectural modernity and a quieter suburban-prime setting, Leedon Green is the stronger choice.
D’Leedon at S$1,854 psf represents a fundamentally different proposition: 1,715 units across twelve towers by Zaha Hadid Architects, with resort-scale facilities on a 99-year lease. The S$677 psf discount versus St Regis translates to dramatically lower absolute quantums — a 3-bedroom at D’Leedon might cost S$2.5–3M versus S$5–7M at St Regis. The trade-off is total: D’Leedon offers more facilities, more unit diversity, and a lower entry point, but without the branded-residence services, the ultra-exclusive scale of 173 units, or the Tanglin Road address. These two developments serve different buyer motivations and should not be confused as substitutes. The buyer choosing between them is really choosing between a luxury mass-market product and a branded ultra-luxury asset — the PSF comparison is less meaningful than the lifestyle comparison.
| Development | Tenure | TOP | Units | ~Avg PSF |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ST REGIS RESIDENCES SINGAPORE | 999 yrs lease commencing from 1995 | 2008 | 173 | $2,534 |
| SKYE AT HOLLAND | 99 yrs lease commencing from 2024 | 2025 | 666 | $2,946 |
| LEEDON GREEN | Freehold | 2021 | 638 | $2,785 |
| D'LEEDON | 99 yrs lease commencing from 2010 | 2014 | 1,703 | $1,858 |
| HYLL ON HOLLAND | Freehold | 2021 | 319 | $2,648 |
| FOURTH AVENUE RESIDENCES | 99 yrs lease commencing from 2018 | 2021 | 476 | $2,465 |
Lease Decay Analysis
The 99-year lease runs from 1995, meaning approximately 31 years have already been consumed. Roughly 68 years remain — still comfortably within the range where most banks will offer full financing without restrictions.
| Year | Lease remaining | Implication |
|---|---|---|
| 2026 (now) | ~68 years | Full bank financing available |
| 2034 | ~59 years | Approaching 60-year threshold — CPF limits begin for some |
| 2054 | ~39 years | Significant financing restrictions for next buyer |
| 2094 | Expiry | Lease reverts to state |
For a buyer purchasing today with a 10-year horizon (exit around 2036), the lease situation is essentially a non-issue — you’d be selling a property with ~58 years remaining, which is still very bankable. The risk profile changes for longer holds.

What Residents Say
“We’ve lived here for over a decade and I still find nothing comparable in Singapore. The butler service isn’t a marketing line — it’s genuinely integrated into daily life. I’ve had dinner sent up from Yan Ting after a late flight, had the concierge arrange a last-minute event for twenty guests, and had laundry returned pressed and perfect by morning. The unit is spacious — our 4-bedroom is over 2,100 sqft, which feels enormous compared to what new launches are selling today. Yes, it’s showing its age in some areas, but the bones are excellent and the fittings were best-in-class when installed.”
— Long-term owner discussion via PropertyGuru
“We relocated from London and the decision came down to St Regis versus one of the newer Orchard developments. The newer projects had shinier lobbies and trendy facilities, but none could offer the hotel services. My wife values the housekeeping and in-residence dining immensely — it’s the closest thing to a serviced apartment but with the privacy and space of a family home. The Botanic Gardens are a ten-minute walk for weekend mornings, Tanglin Mall handles the everyday groceries, and Chatsworth International is literally across the road for the children. The MRT situation has improved dramatically since the TEL opened — Napier station is walkable now, which it certainly wasn’t when we first moved in.”
— Expatriate family feedback via 99.co
“The Marriott VIP benefits are an underrated perk. My wife and I travel frequently and the Bonvoy status we get through ONVIA has meant suite upgrades at St. Regis properties in Bali, the Maldives, and New York. It’s not the primary reason to buy, but over ten years the accumulated travel benefits add up to a material value. On the flip side, the development is 18 years old now, and some common areas could use a refresh. The pool area is fine but not Instagram-worthy like Leedon Green’s. And the yield won’t excite anyone — we rent our second unit here at S$13,000 a month, which sounds impressive until you calculate it against the purchase price.”
— Owner-investor commentary via Stacked Homes
Resident sentiment at St Regis Residences converges on a remarkably consistent set of themes. The butler service and hotel integration are universally cited as the defining advantage — not a theoretical perk but a practical, daily-use feature that genuinely differentiates the living experience. Unit sizes are praised repeatedly, with long-term owners noting that the generous 2008-era layouts feel increasingly rare and valuable as new launches compress floor areas. The Tanglin Road location is appreciated for its quiet prestige, diplomatic-enclave character, and improving MRT connectivity via the TEL. The recurring criticisms are equally consistent: the common areas and some fittings are showing their age after 18 years, the absolute quantum (S$5–7M for standard units, significantly more for Sky Suites and Villas) limits the buyer pool, and the rental yield does not justify the purchase price on a pure investment basis. Residents who chose St Regis over newer competitors did so for the service layer and the 999-year tenure — a combination they view as irreplaceable.
Singapore’s genuinely branded residence. Most “branded” projects in the CCR are licensing exercises — the developer pays a fee for a logo on the gate. St Regis Residences is the rare case where the hotel and the condominium share back-of-house staff, signature butler service, and a single operations team accountable to Marriott’s Luxury Collection. Owners can route concierge requests, in-residence dining, housekeeping top-ups, and chauffeur bookings through the hotel desk — an integration UHNW relocators from Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Mumbai immediately recognise (as of 2026-05).
999-year tenure mutes the lease-decay risk that hangs over D9 and D10 leasehold competitors. The lease runs from 1995, so roughly 968 years remain (as of 2026-05). Singapore courts and SLA treat anything above ~900 years as economically indistinguishable from freehold — valuation, CPF utilisation, and bank LTV ladder all behave the same way. Compared to nearby 99-year leasehold towers entering their second decade of decay (you can model the gradient yourself on the lease decay calculator), the tenure here removes one of the two biggest CCR exit-risk variables.
Transaction discipline that defends valuation. URA caveats record just 10 resale deals in 2025 at an average S$2,582 PSF on a roughly S$6.03M average quantum, with 2024 closing 14 deals at S$2,477 PSF (as of 2026-05). That is healthy liquidity for a 173-unit boutique — not so thin that price discovery fails, not so heavy that supply overhangs the market. Across the 2021–2025 cycle the average PSF traded in a S$2,477–S$2,582 band, demonstrating the kind of low-beta behaviour UHNW buyers reward in a wealth-preservation asset. You can pull the comparable distribution on the District 10 price heatmap against neighbouring Cuscaden, Tomlinson, and Ardmore addresses.
Tenancy book that compounds quietly. The development logged 42 rental contracts in 2025 at an average S$15,636 per month (S$6.31 PSF), and the 2026 year-to-date pace is already 20 leases at S$15,255 (as of 2026-05). That is a deep, recurring expat-executive tenant base — bank-relocated trader families, regional MNC C-suite, sovereign-fund secondees — rather than the transient short-let pool. The Authority data shows similar yield discipline at the top of the District 10 rental-yield leaderboard. Run the gross figure through the mortgage calculator with the official MAS Notice 645 (TDSR) 55% threshold and the cash-on-cash math holds up at current Sora-linked rates.
Location triangle that rewards walkers. The site sits inside the Tanglin–Tomlinson–Cuscaden triangle — walking distance to Orchard Boulevard MRT (TEL, opened 2022), Tanglin Mall, Tanglin Club, the Botanic Gardens UNESCO site, and the diplomatic enclave along Nassim Road. School-bus catchments to prime CCR international institutions are short and predictable, and the Tanglin Trust School and Singapore American School commuter networks both pass through.
Quantum gate keeps the resale buyer pool intentionally shallow. The 2025 average transaction quantum was S$6.03M (as of 2026-05) — that price point eliminates virtually every Singapore-citizen single-name buyer below the partner-track law/finance tier. With IRAS ABSD at 60% for foreigners and 30% for the second-property Singaporean (as of 2026-05 per the 2023 cooling-measures schedule), a foreign buyer is effectively writing a S$9.6M cheque before furnishings. That is a real constraint on demand depth during downturns — even Q1 2026 has only printed two caveats.
Exposure to UHNW expat policy cycles. Roughly two-thirds of the tenancy book is foreign-passport corporate relocators (industry composition inferred from leasing volumes vs. CCR norms). Any tightening of Employment Pass thresholds, family-office incentives, or banking-secondment volumes — the kind of policy nudge MAS and MOM have signalled repeatedly since 2023 (as of 2026-05) — flows through to rental-rate dispersion within 6–9 months. Run a stress test by halving the foreign-tenant share on the rental-yield map; the gross yield holds but the void-risk profile lengthens.
Service charge and maintenance reflect hotel-grade staffing. Branded-residence MCST budgets typically run 30–60% above unbranded CCR comparables of similar size, because the share of hotel back-of-house staff allocated to the residential block is real. Buyers should price this into the total cost of ownership alongside MCST sinking-fund top-ups for the 17-year-old building envelope. The headline gross rental yield of roughly 3.0–3.1% (as of 2026-05) is competitive for CCR but the net-of-MCST figure narrows meaningfully.
Volume is genuinely thin in any given month. Ten resale caveats across all of 2025 means the typical exit window from listing to firm contract spans 4–8 months at this price band. UHNW sellers accept this; speculators do not. Anyone modelling a 3–5 year flip should use the stamp duty calculator against current SSD remnants and the brokerage-commission load — the round-trip transaction cost on a S$6M quantum dwarfs the short-term capital-gain assumption most spreadsheets default to.

St Regis Residences Singapore is a wealth-preservation asset first and a yield play second — and the math only works if you treat it that way. The combination of genuine branded-residence operations (not just a logo), a 968-year remaining tenure that immunises against lease decay, and a disciplined 10-deals-per-year resale market makes this one of the cleanest stores-of-value in the entire CCR (as of 2026-05). Buyers paying S$2,500–S$2,600 PSF in 2025 are not buying mispricing; they are buying optionality on Singapore’s safe-haven status, which has compounded steadily through every cooling-measure cycle since 2010.
The right holding period is 8–15 years, not three. On a five-year hold the round-trip transaction friction (60% foreigner ABSD or 30% second-property ABSD, plus BSD, legal, and the typical 1–2% sale commission at this band) crushes the IRR unless prime D10 PSF runs above 25% over the period. On a 10-year-plus hold the math turns on you favourably — branded-residence rental premiums tend to widen versus unbranded peers as Singapore’s position as a private-banking hub deepens, and the freehold-equivalent tenure means CPF and bank LTV behave consistently across the full ownership window.
Three actions to take before signing. First, run the full quantum through the affordability calculator with ABSD and MCST loaded in, then sanity-check against the refinancing calculator at a 3.5% stress rate. Second, compare side-by-side against Nassim Park Residences, Boulevard 88, and Cuscaden Reserve on the multi-property comparator — the branded-residence premium is real but not infinite, and Boulevard 88 in particular contests the value proposition. Third, talk to the CCR specialist finder about the MCST budget and the hotel-allocation split before signing; one good question on staffing costs can move the negotiated price meaningfully.
For the right buyer at the right horizon, St Regis Residences earns its premium. For everyone else, it is an expensive way to learn that branded-residence math demands patient capital.
