Neu At Novena is a freehold apartment development at 27 Moulmein Rise, with 87 homes in a single residential building. Its compact site and elevated communal spaces give it a different arrangement from developments spread across several blocks. Roxy-Pacific’s current portfolio lists two- to four-bedroom apartments and completion in 2024.
A new building on an earlier residential site
The project company is RH Novena Pte Ltd. Development partner Lim Wen Heng identifies the partnership behind Neu At Novena as Roxy-Pacific, Macly and LWH Holdings.
Contemporary reporting provides some background to the site. In May 2018, The Business Times reported that RH Novena had acquired two adjoining freehold plots at 27 Moulmein Rise. It identified the former Grand Tower as an earlier development on the site and said that building had already been demolished before the acquisition. This describes the site’s redevelopment history rather than a conversion of the old building.
A single tower with an elevated shared level
Project engineer KCL Consultants describes the scheme as a 17-storey residential development with two basement car-parking levels. Its record places communal facilities at the first storey and the 14th-storey sky terrace. This professional description is the basis for the building height stated here.
The project image published by KCL shows a curved upper façade element and a prominent open terrace within the tower. The combination gives the design a distinct upper section, with shared space incorporated into the building’s height as well as at ground level.
The two- to four-bedroom range covers different household needs, but bedroom count alone does not explain how a home will function. Compare the individual floor plan, living and dining proportions, storage and circulation. For an occupied unit, existing partitions and fitted furniture should be checked against the plan supplied for that particular apartment.
Facilities and everyday use
KCL’s project record documents a swimming pool and communal facilities across the lower level and sky terrace. The split between these levels is a useful feature to understand when visiting: residents’ recreation space is not confined to a single ground-level deck.
Current access, booking arrangements and maintenance condition require confirmation with the estate. During a viewing, check the lift route between the apartment, shared areas and basement, and establish the visitor meeting point. These practical details are more useful than assuming that an original project illustration represents today’s operating arrangements.
Moulmein and the changing Novena precinct
The surrounding area has a long association with healthcare. The Ministry of Health records that Tan Tock Seng Hospital moved to Moulmein Road in 1909. That history helps explain why hospitals, medical education and related institutions are such a significant part of Novena’s built environment.
The precinct continues to change through HealthCity Novena. In September 2025, the Ministry confirmed completion of the master plan’s first phase and launched the next phase. NHG identifies the completed developments as including the medical school’s Clinical Sciences Building, the National Centre for Infectious Diseases and the TTSH Integrated Care Hub.
The proposed TTSH Medical Tower belongs to the next phase. NHG’s update also describes proposed green corridors and pedestrian connections. These plans provide context for the area’s future physical changes; they should not be read as completed amenities or a promise of direct access from Neu At Novena.
Transport and checking the immediate setting
Novena MRT station serves the area on the North–South Line. When assessing a daily journey, follow the actual public route from the development entrance to the appropriate station entrance, including crossings and any sheltered sections, rather than relying solely on map proximity.
A visit at the time you expect to leave or return home can help establish the immediate street conditions. Within the apartment, assess daylight, surrounding buildings and privacy from the actual windows and balcony. The tower’s design and sky terrace do not establish the outlook of every home.
