The Florence Residences

Getting a home to call your own is probably one of life’s biggest decisions. You want to make sure it provides ease of access for your life outside of its confines, but still have it be a sanctuary you can return to.

An 8-minute walk away from Kovan MRT, The Florence Residences provides convenience, no doubt. But it’s also a one-of-a-kind club-condo hybrid, meaning there’ll be facilities way beyond just a pool and gym. From Amphitheatres to a Hydrotherapy Club equipped with Onsen spas, you’ll barely want to leave home sweet home.

The Florence Residences is an 8-minute walk from Kovan MRT – connected to stations on the North East Line like Dhoby Ghaut, Clarke Quay and Outram Park. Just one MRT stop away is Serangoon Interchange, which connects you all over the island through the North East Line and Circle Line.

Come 2029, the Cross Island MRT line will be situated just a 6-minute walk away, sending you to stations such as Pasir Ris, Ang Mo Kio and Bukit Timah.

Foodies are in luck as the condo is right smack in between good eats such as Lola’s Cafe, Kovan Market & Food Centre, Teck Chye Food Street and more. For all your grocery and shopping needs, Heartland Mall is a stone’s throw away.

With renowned schools like Junior Champs Preschool, Xing Hua Primary School and Dimensions International College in the vicinity, it’s also the perfect location to settle down and start your happy little family.

Unique “club-condo” amenities

The Florence Residences has a club-condo living concept, which means there are 128 different facilities dotted around the vicinity as well as 12 clubs with complimentary lifestyle activities* just steps away from your door.

Don’t underestimate the powers of good ol’ H2O. The Florence Residences comes equipped with a Hydrotherapy Club, where you can take a rejuvenating dip in an Onsen spa. Imagine slogging it out at school or work all day and coming home to a mini Japan hot springs getaway. Bliss!

Bonus: For those looking to add some pep to their workout routines, the Aqua Bikes provide a killer workout for those lower body muscles.

Hosting parties in Pavilions  gourmet-style

If you’re hosting the next group get-together, say goodbye to boring BBQ pits and wow your guests with full-fledged gourmet facilities instead. There’s an Italian Pavilion complete with a pizza oven, a Japanese Pavilion fitted with a teppanyaki grill, and an Outback Grill so you can throw some shrimps on the barbie.

With the variety of themed cooking facilities, it’s hard not to channel your inner Jamie Oliver.

Pretending you’re overseas at the Island Lap Pool

No more counting down the months till your next overseas vacation, the island pools at The Florence Residences will whisk you straight to coastal paradise. Besides a 80-metre Lap Pool and a smaller Lounge Pool, kids will have a blast at the various pool adventure zones.

They’ve got a Ripple Deck, a Mystery Island with swings, and a Discovery Island with little tepee tents to duck in and out of.

Work out at a Sparring Ring with Punching Bag Corner & Bouldering Wall

It’s one thing to stay at a condo with a gym, but the mundanity of running on a treadmill like a hamster on a wheel probably won’t help in your long-term fitness goals.

Say hello to a Sparring Ring Pavilion and Bouldering Wall, all within the confines of home with no external gym membership fees to speak of. You can also channel some pent-up frustration into a hearty cardio sesh over at the punching bag corner.

Entertain yourselves with pool, darts, karaoke or Netflix under the stars

Those who fancy a round of bar games will love the Pool Table with Dartboard Pavilion. If you prefer to sit back and relax, the Amphitheatre provides quite an out-of-this-world viewing experience.

Bonus: There’s also a KTV Suite within the condo so you don’t have to deal with the thin, non-soundproof walls of many public karaoke establishments. Be as extra as you want!

Complimentary lifestyle activities (T&Cs apply)

If you’re all about upgrading yourself and living your best life, you’d be pleased to know that The Florence Residences has a slew of enriching classes. All free* for the first 2 years of your stay, too!

*Terms and conditions apply.

Try your hand at popular fitness and dance classes, inch closer to Masterchef status with cooking and baking classes, and even pick up some niche skills like flower arrangement! Those with tiny tots can also enrol them in kids’ music classes.
