About Uptown @ Farrer

Uptown @ Farrer is a mixed-use development at 2 Perumal Road, Singapore 218773, in District 8 (Little India / Farrer Park). It was developed by Perumal Development Pte Ltd, a vehicle of Low Keng Huat (Singapore), on a 99-year leasehold site with tenure running from 17 April 2017. The developer secured the 3,848 square metre plot at a government land tender in early 2017 for $174.08 million, or roughly $1,001 per square foot of permitted floor area.

The scheme has two towers over a shared podium. A 23-storey block holds 116 private apartments. An 18-storey block holds 240 serviced apartments that operate as lyf Farrer Park Singapore, a co-living brand of The Ascott. There are seven shops at street level. EdgeProp records the gross floor area as 17,703 square metres and the completion year as 2021.

Interesting facts

  • Homes, co-living serviced apartments and shops share one site here, an unusual mix for a plot of under 0.4 hectares.

  • lyf is aimed at younger travellers and project workers, with shared kitchens and social spaces. Ascott states that the Farrer Park property holds sustainable-operations certification.

  • Perumal Road takes its name from the Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple around the corner on Serangoon Road, one of the main Hindu temples in Little India.

  • The Little India conservation area was gazetted on 7 July 1989, so the modern towers look out over protected low-rise shophouse streets to the south.
