AI-inspired conceptual illustration of Residence Twenty-Two — not a site photograph, architectural drawing or precise as-built representation.
Residence Twenty-Two is a freehold apartment development at 246 Telok Kurau Road. Its 22 homes occupy a single five-storey block, making it a small residential scheme within the Telok Kurau neighbourhood. The mix includes one- and two-bedroom apartments alongside larger three-bedroom layouts with an additional study or helper's room.
Development background
BCA's Quality Housing Portal identifies Grow99 Pte Ltd as the project developer. Tat Hin Builders' specialised-project portfolio also records the development at this address, names Grow99 as its client and dates the project to 2022. The portfolio does not specify an exact Temporary Occupation Permit date.
Older launch listings used an estimated completion date of 2021. This should be distinguished from the later corporate project record. For a transaction that depends on a statutory completion date, check the actual documents for the property rather than treating a marketing forecast as the TOP date.
Understanding the apartment plans
The archived plan set distinguishes Type A one-bedroom homes and a Type B two-bedroom layout from the larger C-series apartments. Types C, C1 and C2 are labelled three bedrooms with a study; Type C3 is labelled three bedrooms with a maid's room. This is worth checking when an advertisement describes a larger unit simply as four-bedroom accommodation.
The reproduced Type A plan places the kitchen and dining area near the entrance, with the living space leading towards a balcony. Type C shows a separate study beside the living and dining area and a private enclosed space outside. In Type C3, the helper's room is beside the cooking and service areas. These arrangements serve different household routines despite sharing a project name.
Ask for the plan of the particular unit and compare it with the installed layout. Assess whether an additional room works for the intended use, including its dimensions, access and ventilation. Check how balconies, air-conditioning ledges and any private enclosed space contribute to the stated area, using the registered strata plan where precision matters.
Shared spaces and everyday use
Launch-era project descriptions identify a swimming pool, children's playground and outdoor exercise area. These descriptions indicate the original facility programme; they do not establish today's condition, opening hours or access rules. Confirm the pool's actual location and the route to it during a visit.
In a development of this scale, everyday arrangements deserve attention alongside the apartment itself. Check visitor entry, deliveries, parking allocation and move-in access. Ask which shared spaces require booking and whether there are current maintenance notices. Do not assume that a unit comes with a particular parking space unless its documents and management arrangements support that.
Telok Kurau surroundings
The Telok Kurau setting offers access to a wider network of public outdoor spaces. NParks describes Siglap Park Connector as running partly alongside Siglap Canal and linking parks including Telok Kurau Park and East Coast Park. It forms a gateway to the Eastern Coastal Loop.
These are neighbourhood destinations rather than private facilities of Residence Twenty-Two. Plan the route from the development's permitted exit to a suitable connector access point, and check the crossings and conditions along the way. A connection within the wider park network does not mean that the apartment building has a direct gate onto it.
Marine Terrace rail connection
Marine Terrace MRT station serves this part of the East Coast on the Thomson–East Coast Line. LTA's fourth-stage opening brought Marine Terrace into passenger service on 23 June 2024. Older property descriptions calling the station upcoming are therefore out of date.
For a regular commute, walk the route from the actual building exit to the station entrance you would use. Assess shelter, crossings and the final approach with your household's needs in mind. Visit the apartment at a representative time to judge daylight, privacy and surrounding activity, and confirm current maintenance contributions, renovation procedures and included fittings before committing to a purchase or tenancy.
