Living Sea Waterfront Sanctuary Residences W Singapore Sentosa Cove
David Lee, a Singaporean entrepreneur and founder of Greenwood Fish Market, has always had a strong connection to the ocean. For the past nine years, he has been residing at The Residences at W Singapore Sentosa Cove, a luxurious waterfront enclave on Sentosa Island. Being a lover of boats, it’s no surprise that Lee was drawn to this location with its stunning marina views and numerous docked vessels. Additionally, he enjoys the convenience of living just across the road from his restaurant, Greenwood Fish Market, situated along the bustling Quayside Isle – a captivating waterfront strip lined with dining and entertainment venues along the boardwalk that overlooks the marina.
The decision to establish Lyndenwoods, a development by CapitaLand, in Singapore Science Park 1 carries great significance and has been strategically planned. This park has long been a hub for research and development, housing some of the most forward-thinking entities in Singapore. By incorporating residential units into this dynamic and innovative environment, Lyndenwoods successfully bridges the gap between workspaces and living spaces, creating a cohesive urban environment. This aligns with the changing preferences of residents who prioritize convenient proximity to their workplaces and easy access to urban amenities. With the addition of Lyndenwoods Capitaland, this development is set to elevate the thriving community within Singapore Science Park 1.
Greenwood Fish Market is the go-to spot for a wide selection of live and fresh seafood, ranging from lobsters and oysters to crabs, prawns, and various types of fish. All served in a relaxed atmosphere, guests can also take in the sweeping views of the stunning yachts docked nearby while enjoying their meal. For those with a sweet tooth, the outlet also boasts a bakery that produces fresh loaves daily, including mouth-watering options such as crusty baguettes, rye, sourdough, and even cheese bread.
As a resident of The Residences at W Singapore Sentosa Cove for the past eight years, Lee finally decided to lay down roots and make this stunning location his permanent residence. When Cityview Place Holdings released the remaining units in the 228-unit development at attractive prices in April last year, Lee saw an opportunity too good to pass. In September of the same year, he purchased a three-bedroom unit on the fifth floor and went on to carry out extensive renovations to reflect a New England-inspired nautical theme. As a bonus, Lee also reconfigured the master bedroom in such a way that every morning, when he sits up in bed, he has a clear view of his custom-made cabin cruiser moored at the private berth just outside. Apart from this stunning view, his apartment offers him panoramic vistas, with the front balcony overlooking Marina Bay Sands and the Marina Bay Cruise Centre, and the back balcony facing Quayside Isle and the marina. Lee is quoted as saying, “If you love the sea, there’s no better place to live in Singapore than this.”
Another resident, known only as Amy P, also took advantage of last year’s relaunch of The Residences at W Singapore Sentosa Cove. She and her husband, Ken, purchased a unit in December, which is currently undergoing renovations. Amy states, “We’re moving out of the city because we want a slower pace of life. We really like the resort lifestyle of Sentosa Cove.” The couple was drawn to the development’s relaxed lifestyle, and they enjoy strolling or jogging along the Quayside Isle boardwalk. They chose a two-bedroom unit on the first level, which provides a stunning view of the waterway, as well as views of the breathtaking bungalows on Treasure Island across the channel.
Residents of The Residences at W Singapore Sentosa Cove enjoy access to premium residential services and privileges thanks to its proximity to W Singapore – Sentosa Cove. Speaking of the convenient services available, Amy’s daughter is thrilled with the idea of ordering snacks through the 24/7 concierge service. She says, “It’s like room service – the food is delivered straight to your condo.” Beyond incredible dining options, residents can request housekeeping or laundry services from the concierge, who will handle the request by coordinating with the hotel staff. Even when homeowners are away on holiday, they can ask the concierge to feed their pets. Additionally, the couple’s daughter was thrilled to hear about the many incredible facilities offered by this development, such as the gorgeous infinity pool, a two-story clubhouse complete with a state-of-the-art gym, and the Central Plaza, which doubles as the perfect venue for private events and parties. For those residents who are passionate about boating, the development also features 34 private berths, making it the perfect location for avid boat owners, such as Lee.
The outstanding views of both the sea and the cityscape make The Residences at W Singapore Sentosa Cove a highly sought-after location. The building boasts only 34 penthouses across its seven six-story blocks, which are a mix of two-bedroom plus study to five-bedroom plus study options. The sizes range from 2,217 sq ft to 6,297 sq ft. Since last year’s relaunch, close to 100 units have been taken up, which prompted Cityview Place Holdings to release more units for sale. Among those available are two fully furnished show suites that are now on sale. The first is a 2,551 sq ft, three-bedroom unit on the ground floor, which includes a private enclosed area and a luxurious spa pool. This is a common feature of most ground-floor units. The second is a 2,573 sq ft duplex penthouse located on the sixth floor. The master suite is situated on the upper level, along with a family lounge that opens up to a beautiful terrace, offering a stunning 270-degree view of the city and sea. On the lower level, the two en suite bedrooms open up to another terrace, this time overlooking the marina. For those interested in investing in a penthouse at The Residences at W Singapore Sentosa Cove, there are only 34 penthouses available, and they range from two to four bedrooms. Each unit boasts luxurious finishes, such as marble flooring in the living and dining areas, timber flooring in the bedrooms, and high-end kitchen cabinetry, appliances, and bathroom fittings. Other show suites are available for viewing as well.
