North Gaia is an executive condominium on Yishun Close, comprising 616 homes in eleven 14-storey blocks. Its three- to five-bedroom apartments give the development a family-sized residential mix, while shared recreation areas and landscaped spaces sit between the blocks. Sing Holdings lists its addresses as the odd numbers from 25 to 45 Yishun Close.
Development background and completion
The developer is Sing Holdings (Yishun) Pte Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sing Holdings Limited. The site has a 99-year lease beginning on 15 February 2021. This lease commencement date is separate from the building’s completion date.
Sing Holdings’ 2025 annual report confirms that North Gaia obtained its Temporary Occupation Permit in July 2025 and that sold units were delivered during that year. This later record is more useful when establishing completion than the estimated dates in older launch material.
Homes and residential layout
The apartment range includes three-bedroom layouts with different combinations of yard and study space, alongside four- and five-bedroom homes. These distinctions matter when comparing usable space: a household needing a separate work area may assess a study differently from a larger open living room.
The original launch information also described optional configurations for selected three-bedroom apartments, including a guest room, hobby room or study. These were specific design options, not a feature of every home. For an individual unit, check the approved floor plan and existing partitions before relying on a listing’s room description.
The developer describes most units as having a north–south orientation. Actual daylight, outlook and privacy still depend on the particular block, stack, floor and surrounding buildings, so the development-wide description should be followed by an inspection of the unit itself.
Shared spaces and everyday use
North Gaia’s launch specification included two 50-metre swimming pools, a tennis court, exercise areas and a co-working space. Gardens and pavilions provide a different kind of shared space from the sports facilities, with places intended for quieter use and small gatherings.
These are features of the original development specification. Before arranging a move or planning regular activities, confirm which facilities are operating, their booking arrangements and any visitor restrictions. The route from the particular block to the entrance, refuse point and shared spaces is also worth checking during a visit.
Yishun’s waterways and changing green spaces
Khatib Bongsu gives this part of Yishun an environmental context beyond its residential streets. NParks identifies the area with mangrove habitats, while plans for Khatib Bongsu Nature Park include mangroves, mudflats and secondary forest. These habitats should not be confused with a landscaped condominium garden or an already-open visitor attraction.
URA’s 2026 information describes the nature park as upcoming, with new nature trails planned to open progressively from 2028. Access and completion remain subject to the public project’s progress; a nearby home does not guarantee a particular view or direct access.
The existing Khatib Bongsu Park Connector is a separate route. NParks describes it passing Khatib MRT and Yishun Park before following Sungei Khatib Bongsu, with an end at Yishun Avenue 6. Check the current connector map and the public-road approach from North Gaia when planning a walk or cycle.
Getting around and planning a visit
Yishun MRT station provides a reference point for journeys on the North–South Line. Assess the complete trip from the development entrance, including the bus or walking connection, road crossings and the destination beyond the station, rather than relying on a train journey alone.
For a viewing, confirm the correct block and meeting point in advance. Compare the home’s actual layout with its floor plan, inspect the outlook at a relevant time of day and ask for current estate rules where they affect everyday use.
