4 Reasons Why Melville Park Is an Ideal Home:

1. Specifications and Perks for Own Stay

Melville Park’s classic design is inspired by European architecture and created with families in mind. Choosing an apartment here isn’t too hard; you just need to decide between a three or four-bedroom unit. There are many ways you can spend quality family time here. There’s a clubhouse and function room to hold mini parties, barbeque area for occasional cookouts, swimming pool and wading pool for kids, a playground, street soccer and squash courts, gymnasium and sauna.

2. Accessibility, Amenities, and Recreational Spots

There are two train stations which are closeby: Simei MRT Station and Tampines East MRT Station. The bus stop right in front of the condominium has bus service that can take you to the train stations within 10 minutes. Melville Park is accessible via Upper Changi Road and Pan Island Expressway (PIE). It would take you about 24 minutes or less to reach the Central Business District (CBD) and Orchard Road via PIE.

Head down to the nearest mall, Eastpoint Mall, if you need to do grocery shopping or get any basic necessities. Surrounded by multiple towns like Changi, Tampines, and Bedok, Melville Park’s location gives you a plethora of dining and shopping options. The wide range of shopping centres and entertainment avenues include Jewel Changi Airport, Changi City Point, Century Square, Tampines 1, and Tampines Mall. The closest recreational spot would be in Changi, where there is the beach, park, and chalets.

3. Education, Employment, and Healthcare

Melville Park is close to several schools and colleges. There are seven childcare centres and three kindergartens, all less than 500m away, which takes less than a five minutes’ walk. Other nearby educational institutions include Metta School, East Spring Secondary School, Chongzheng Primary School, Pasir Ris Primary School, and Singapore University of Technology and Design.

You will also be strategically located close to Changi Business Park (six-minute drive), Tampines Central (10-minute drive), and Pasir Ris Wafer Fab Park (14-minute drive) – which is going through an expansion – resulting in more jobs closer to home and an increase in potential tenants.
