Tour these 12 beautiful luxury homes in Orchard

Renowned as a high-end shopping destination at the heart of the city, Orchard is also the cream of the crop of Singapore’s residential neighbourhoods, exemplified by these gorgeous penthouses and other abodes in the area

Singapore’s Orchard area is synonymous with luxury shopping, but beyond its gleaming storefronts and bustling roads lies a collection of some of Singapore’s most exclusive and opulent residences.

Nestled within this coveted neighbourhood are exquisite homes that redefine urban living, blending contemporary interiors with breathtaking city views. From soaring super penthouses to elegantly reimagined apartments that capture the essence of living in a “garden city”, these homes offer glimpses into the lavish lifestyles of their owners, and epitomise the pinnacle of luxury and sophistication in the heart of Singapore.

This 6,000-square-foot super penthouse was created by merging two large apartments, featuring delicate, botanical-inspired interiors by Studio If. The super penthouse was imagined as a combination of two “villas in the sky”, each one a three-storey home the size of a landed house, with panoramic views of the city.

As architect and Studio If founder Gwen Tan shares: “It encapsulates the true essence of villa living, with a luxurious 2,000-square-foot master suite over two floors with private spa baths, large private sky gardens, and a private lift lobby exclusive to the suite.”

To ensure the grand master suite would feel intimate within the expansive double-volume interiors, the bed was tucked under a lower section of the ceiling, facing the Orchard skyline. “The owners can fall asleep to magical city views at night and wake up to stunning sunrises,” Tan remarks.

Another super penthouse merged by Studio If, this 6,000-square-foot master villa was similarly fitted with a magnificent master bedroom that takes up a third of the home’s footprint.

Aptly titled Oasis in the Sky, this super penthouse offers exclusive views of Orchard Road and the city beyond, while cocooning the residents in an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre.

Designer and architect Gwen Tan highlights the rarity of the oversized master suite in particular, a feature almost unheard of in Singapore. As she tells us: “The master bedroom is like a villa within a villa.”

A creation of New York-based designer Mark Curley, this Singapore condominium apartment is a colourful potpourri of vivid hues, patterns and personal stories. Designed for a globetrotting husband and wife, from France and Honduras respectively, the interiors of the apartment were inspired by the couple’s Miami residence, which had been previously crafted by the same designer. The pair loved the colourful interiors of that space, vibrant yet harmonious and comfortable, and requested a similar design for their Singapore home.

The interiors were further adapted to maximise the distinctive semi-circular layout, featuring high ceilings, a spacious living room with grand views and plenty of natural light, and two terraces. On top of that, the bedrooms are conveniently located down a curved hallway, lending them privacy from the common areas.

An apartment housed within freehold condominium The Marq, this residence was turned into a home with warm hues and textured finishes, the result an airy sanctuary that fosters feelings of serenity.

The intent of designer Adrian Ong, founder and principal of Anthracyte Studio, was to introduce understated elegance and renewed vigour into the space. Considered wall treatments, new metal trims, subtle accents in the form of soft furnishings, and luxurious finishes are just some of the elements the designer opted for to infuse the interiors with contemporary allure.

Artwork is displayed throughout the apartment as the final touch, lending energising pops of colour and visual interest.

Bringing out the inherent charm of this semi-detached house, Summerhaus D’zign drew inspiration from the abode’s neoclassical exterior architecture for the interiors while streamlining the living spaces for a more minimalist finish.

The design team reworked the layout of the two-decade-old house by removing non-structural walls, which allowed natural light to flood the interiors and improved the usability of previously underutilised spaces.

Opening up the floor plan then made room for the introduction of personalised touches without the risk of overwhelming the interiors, the result a fuss-free, minimalist home that yet exudes a “quaint sense of elegance”.

Taking a cue from the family’s vivacious personalities, Summerhaus D’zign gave this Singapore penthouse near Orchard Road a vibrant and fully functional makeover.

“When we first went to the site, we were awed by the full-length windows across level one, which not only brought in a lot of light but also a panoramic view that was mostly unblocked,” shares the lead designer. “It was quite clear that we wanted to keep the airy, open and bright feel of the space.”

After visiting the family in their previous home to observe their daily habits and lifestyles, the design team thoughtfully let their minute observations inform the spatial planning and design of the refreshed abode. This further helped them identify the most intuitive spots to keep daily items within easy reach, while selecting the focal areas to display the family’s most cherished objects and artworks.

Serving its owners as their retirement home, this chic five-room penthouse near Orchard Road spans a generous floor area of 5,800 square feet, with a striking new design by Antone by D.

Rich layers and bespoke touches characterise the stylish interiors, with scenic views of the Orchard Road shopping belt from almost every room in the apartment. “There was so much potential,” recalls designer Divya Anthony. “It’s rare that you stumble across a space like this with open unblocked views of the city. The view took my breath away.”

Drawing inspiration from this picturesque panorama, the designer selected a material palette with understated hues and rich textures to sculpt the interiors. “Instinctively, I knew that anything that I wanted to introduce to the space should not compete with the view for attention,” she explains.

The elegant transformation of this Orchard apartment was executed by designer Renu Chainani of Ren Home Design, maximising the unit’s enviable views over the city, which are cherished by the well-travelled jewellery designer residing in the space.

Wishing for a “warm, cosy and personal” apartment, the owner requested modern-luxe interiors to reflect her personal style and to allow her collection of artworks and striking accent pieces to shine in the relatively pared-back space.

Therefore, soft and neutral tones were chosen for the home, complemented by pops of pink. Transforming a space into a blank canvas to add in art and accessories is the designer’s specialisation, having made her the perfect fit for this project.

Designed by Sean Hafiz, principal designer at ArchLuxe, this contemporary apartment’s classic palette puts its playful décor touches centre-stage.

The designer opted for a neutral greige base when tasked to give this District 10 home a makeover, brightening the interiors according to the homeowners’ requirements. A modern, contemporary look was introduced with the liberal use of earthy shades, punctuated by accent fixtures and colours that bring character and depth to the home.

Exuding luxury and opulence, this penthouse serves as an inviting space for both the family and their loved ones. With the bustling Orchard Road at their doorstep, they are yet treated to a haven of calm when they return home, surrounded by the things they love.

Designed by TDC & Associates, the apartment differentiates itself from the many sleek and minimalist homes that neighbour it. Against the panoramic view, a palette of dark wood, reflective surfaces and glamorous elements lends the interiors a sense of classical refinement.

Fulfilling the owners’ request for a space to relax with a glass of wine while enjoying the view, a bar was built into the penthouse, doubling as the centrepiece during dinner parties with a dramatically lit shelf of spirits as the backdrop. Reinforcing the abode’s classical influences, the living and dining room walls were clad in bespoke floral wallpaper, and the floors in distinctive Greco-Roman-inspired carpets.
