About The Scotts Tower

The Scotts Tower is a condominium at 38 Scotts Road, Singapore 228240, in District 9 (Orchard, River Valley, Cairnhill). It is a single 31-storey tower with 231 apartments, developed by Far East Organization through Far East Success Development Pte Ltd. The design is by the Dutch practice UNStudio, with Ong and Ong as the local architect. Property records give 2016 as the year of completion, while UNStudio lists 2017. The land is held on a 103-year lease from 1 October 2010, and the site covers about 6,100 sq m.

Most of the homes are compact. According to published figures there are 128 one-bedroom and 80 two-bedroom units, 20 three-bedroom units and three four-bedroom penthouses. The tower is about 156 metres tall and stands close to the Newton end of Scotts Road, between the Orchard shopping belt and Newton Circus.

Interesting facts

  • UNStudio describes the design as a vertical city. A vertical frame divides the tower into four stacked neighbourhoods, each with its own unit types and outdoor terraces.

  • Two horizontal sky frames hold the shared facilities: one at the lobby on levels 1 and 2, and a sky terrace on level 25.

  • Shared facilities listed by the architect include landscaped gardens, sky terraces, roof gardens for the penthouses, pools, a dining deck and wellness areas.

  • The 103-year lease is unusual in Singapore, where leasehold residential land is normally sold on 99-year terms.
