About Margaret Ville

Margaret Ville is a 309-unit condominium at 20 Margaret Drive, Singapore 149312, in District 3 (Queenstown, Tiong Bahru). It was developed by MCL Land, a member of the Jardine Matheson group, through MCL Land (Regency) Pte Ltd. The project is a single 40-storey tower on a site of about 4,810 square metres, with a 99-year lease that started on 13 March 2017. Listings credit the design to Architects 61. It was completed in 2021.

Homes range from one-bedroom units of about 460 square feet to four-bedroom units of about 1,180 square feet. Shared facilities include a 50-metre lap pool, gym, playground and barbecue pavilions. Because the immediate neighbours are low-rise schools and churches, many units have open views.

Interesting facts

  • MCL Land won the government land sale site in December 2016 with a top bid of about $238.4 million, or roughly $998 per square foot per plot ratio. The tender drew 14 bids.

  • Margaret Drive was the heart of Princess Margaret Estate, the first housing estate in Queenstown, which is itself Singapore's first satellite town. The estate was named after the sister of Queen Elizabeth II.

  • Queenstown Public Library at 53 Margaret Drive opened on 30 April 1970 as Singapore's first full-time branch library. It was gazetted for conservation in 2013.

  • Listings describe the tower's facade as a series of horizontal champagne-gold fins.
