About The Paterson
The Paterson is a freehold condominium at 63 Paterson Road, Singapore 238539, in District 9 (Orchard, Cairnhill, River Valley). It was completed in 2004 by Ideal Homes Pte Ltd and designed by Axis Architects Planners. The development has 88 units and rises to 21 storeys. It occupies a site of about 5,370 sq m, with a gross floor area of around 11,277 sq m.
It was among the first of the current generation of condominiums along this stretch of Paterson Road, which runs south from the Orchard Road junction towards River Valley. The street filled up with newer freehold projects in the years that followed. The Paterson remains a private residential estate.
Interesting facts
The Paterson, finished in 2004, predates most of its similarly named neighbours: Paterson Residence followed in 2008, Paterson Suites and Paterson Linc in 2010, and Paterson Collection in the mid-2010s.
Its recorded floor area and site area imply a plot ratio of about 2.1, low for a plot a few minutes from Orchard Road.
OneMap records a separate development called The Paterson Edge at 26 Paterson Road, across the street. The two are unrelated strata estates and are easily confused in searches.
Orchard MRT became an interchange in November 2022 when the Thomson-East Coast Line platforms opened, giving Paterson Road residents a second rail line at the same station.
Nearby
Orchard MRT (North-South and Thomson-East Coast lines) is about 400 to 500 m away, a walk of six minutes or so. Great World MRT (Thomson-East Coast Line) is the next station south. ION Orchard, Wheelock Place and Wisma Atria are at the top of the road. Great World mall and Zion Riverside Food Centre are towards the Singapore River. River Valley Primary School is about 1 km away.
