About Mera Springs
Mera Springs is a freehold condominium at 81 and 83 Carlisle Road, Singapore 219647 and 219648, in District 8 (Farrer Park / Serangoon Road). MCL Land completed it in 2008. The development has 129 units in two addressed blocks on a site of about 5,304 square metres, with a gross floor area of roughly 14,851 square metres.
It is one of the larger private projects in the Pek Kio neighbourhood, where most strata buildings hold a few dozen homes at most. Unlike its small neighbours, it has full condominium facilities, including a swimming pool and barbecue areas. The estate is standing and fully occupied, and is managed by MCST 3410.
Interesting facts
The developer, MCL Land, is part of the Jardine Matheson group through Hongkong Land.
Carlisle Road is one of 22 roads in the Cambridge Road area named after English counties and cities, a naming scheme that gave the neighbourhood the nickname of an English estate.
The completion of the Central Expressway in 1985 cut through this group of streets, separating the Pek Kio side from the roads nearer Novena.
The area was known for flooding in the 1960s and 1970s. An old flood gauge on Cambridge Road survives as a reminder.
