The Garden Residences is near so many food options that you’ll never be left hungry. With hawker centres like Chomp Chomp and Serangoon Garden Circus just over a 5-minute stroll away, you’ll have the luxury of choice and can always feast on plates of barbecued stingray, freshly-fried char kway teow, and bowls of piping hot prawn mee.

It’s also an easy stroll to shopping centres like My Village at Serangoon Garden and wet markets like Serangoon Garden Market. Otherwise, if you feel like whipping up your own meal, the common gourmet kitchen will come in handy with its shiny new appliances.

It’s not everyday you hear of a 75m swimming pool – especially when a full-sized Olympic pool is a mere 50m. But that isn’t The Garden Residences’ only facility: The Garden Residences also have other sporting facilities like a floating yoga pavilion, aqua gym, [b]and reflexology garden, so you can work out in perfectly zen surroundings.

You’ll be spending much of your weekends flipping grilled meats at the BBQ pavilion or pondering life while swinging on the tree hammock. [c]There’s also a stargazing garden on the 15th floor where you can bask in the cool nighttime breeze.

You’re already surrounded by lush greenery, but there are plenty of gardens to call your own. Pick your own herbs and spices at the Community Garden – whenever you’re cooking, feel free to run out to grab a few mint sprigs or pandan leaves for last-minute garnishing. But it’s not all just for a tasty meal.

There’ll be more than 100 plant species that’ll help with your overall wellbeing. Plants like mother-in-law’s tongue will help cleanse the air while plants like nutmeg, Indian bay leaf, and Malabar chestnut have medicinal properties.

The scent of flowers like gardenia and frangipani will be in the air as you stroll through the grounds.

Useful smart home systems
