Why Sky Habitat
A landmark development that brings together an unbeatable location and trusted developer pedigree.
Designed by Moshe Safdie
CapitaLand engaged Moshe Safdie - the architect of Marina Bay Sands and of Montreal's Habitat 67 - to design Sky Habitat. The result is two towers linked by three bridging gardens, with stepped sky terraces rather than a flat curtain wall. It is one of the few residential buildings in Singapore with a genuinely recognisable silhouette.
Bishan MRT 462m - an interchange
Bishan station is about 462m away and is an interchange between the North-South Line and the Circle Line, which means Serangoon, Dhoby Ghaut and the city centre are all reachable without changing trains. Junction 8 is about 422m.
A deep school belt, including Raffles Institution
Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Primary is about 479m and Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Secondary about 435m, with Catholic High School at 941m and 818m for its primary and secondary sections. Raffles Institution is about 1.2km, and Ai Tong Primary and Marymount Convent are both nearby.
Bishan Park, and the Bishan-Ang Mo Kio park corridor
Bishan is one of the greenest towns in Singapore, built around Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park and its restored naturalised river. MacRitchie Reservoir and the Central Catchment are a short drive, and the park connector network links the town to much of the island.
A launch that reset Bishan pricing
Sky Habitat launched in April 2012 at between roughly $1,642 and $1,747 psf, having been described before launch as likely to be among the most expensive suburban condominiums in Singapore. CapitaLand had paid $550 million for the Bishan Street 15 site in a February 2011 Government Land Sales tender. The price record from that launch is public and checkable.
A 129,136 sqft site at plot ratio 4.9
The site is about 11,997 sqm - roughly 129,136 sqft - at a plot ratio of 4.9, with 509 units. That is a dense proposition, and the bridging gardens and sky terraces are what make it work: without them, a plot ratio this high would simply mean a wall of apartments.

Sky Habitat
D20 - Ang Mo Kio / Bishan / Thomson
Sky Habitat is a 509-unit development at 7 Bishan Street 15, District 20, developed by CapitaLand through Bishan Residential Development Pte Ltd. It is designed by Moshe Safdie - the architect of Marina Bay Sands and of Montreal's Habitat 67 - and takes the form of two towers interconnected by three bridging gardens, with stepped sky terraces rather than a conventional flat facade. It launched in April 2012, obtained its Temporary Occupation Permit in the first quarter of 2016, and reached legal completion in the first quarter of 2019.
The site economics explain the architecture. CapitaLand paid $550 million for the Bishan Street 15 parcel in a Government Land Sales tender in February 2011, on a site of about 11,997 sqm - roughly 129,136 sqft - at a plot ratio of 4.9. That combination requires height and density, and the bridging gardens and terraces are the device that makes it liveable: the three bridges create shared outdoor space at high levels, and the stepped profile means many units have an open terrace rather than a sealed window.
The launch, in April 2012, was one of the most closely watched of its cycle. Prices came in at between roughly $1,642 and $1,747 psf depending on unit type, and before launch the project had been described as likely to be among the most expensive suburban condominiums in Singapore. One broker's note described the take-up as muted and the pricing as lower than expected. URA records 374 of the 509 units as taken up, so the project sold down gradually rather than in a single launch weekend - which is typical of a development priced at a premium to its district.
The location is Bishan, one of the most established towns in Singapore and one of its greenest. Bishan MRT station is about 462m away and is an interchange between the North-South Line and the Circle Line, and Junction 8 is about 422m, with a Giant supermarket at 400m and a FairPrice Finest at 420m. On schooling, Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Primary is about 479m and its secondary section about 435m, Catholic High School about 941m for the primary section and 818m for the secondary, and Raffles Institution about 1.2km. Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park and MacRitchie Reservoir are both close by.
The Developer
Backed by Bishan Residential Development Pte Ltd.
CapitaLand (Bishan Residential Development Pte Ltd)
Sky Habitat was developed by CapitaLand through Bishan Residential Development Pte Ltd. CapitaLand is one of Singapore's largest listed property groups and was, at the time of this project, the country's best-known developer of large-scale residential and integrated developments, with a portfolio spanning residential, retail, commercial and serviced residences across Asia and Europe.
Notable Projects
Why Sky Habitat Stands Out
A closer look at the factors that make this development a compelling opportunity.
Location & Connectivity
Bishan is one of the most self-sufficient towns in Singapore, and Sky Habitat sits close to its centre. Bishan MRT station is about 462m away and is an interchange between the North-South Line and the Circle Line - a combination that puts the city centre, Serangoon and the eastern and northern corridors all on direct routes. Junction 8, the town's principal mall, is about 422m, with supermarkets at 400m and 420m. Beyond retail and rail, Bishan's great advantage is green space: Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, with its restored naturalised river, is one of the most successful pieces of urban waterway rehabilitation in Asia, and MacRitchie Reservoir and the Central Catchment Nature Reserve are a short drive. The park connector network links the town to the island-wide cycling and walking system. Road access via the Central Expressway and the Pan-Island Expressway is straightforward, and the CBD is roughly a fifteen-minute drive outside peak.
Amenities & Lifestyle
Provision within walking distance is strong. Junction 8 at about 422m, a Giant supermarket at 400m and a FairPrice Finest at 420m cover most everyday needs, and Bishan's HDB neighbourhoods supply markets, food centres and clinics accumulated over decades. Bishan Sports Hall, the swimming complex and the library are all within the town. The school belt is a particular strength: Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Primary at 479m and its secondary section at 435m, Catholic High School at 941m and 818m depending on section, Raffles Institution at about 1.2km, with Ai Tong Primary, Marymount Convent School, Guangyang Secondary and Raffles Girls' School (Secondary) all within the wider area - one of the densest concentrations of well-regarded schools in Singapore. Within the development, the bridging gardens and sky terraces are the primary amenity, supplemented by a pool island, lily ponds, a water wall, reflection garden, tennis court, BBQ and social areas, party lawn and children's play area.
Rental & Investment
Bishan's rental market is driven primarily by families rather than by the city tenant pool, and that produces a stable rather than spectacular profile. The tenant base is families attached to the school belt - which is unusually deep here, with Raffles Institution, Catholic High and the Kuo Chuan schools all within a kilometre or so of each other - together with staff working at the Bishan and Marymount hospitals and professionals commuting via the North-South and Circle Lines. The interchange at Bishan widens that pool beyond a single-line location. On the other side, 509 units in one development plus the surrounding private stock, including the companion Sky Vue, mean substantial internal and local competition, and the premium pricing at launch means gross yields are modest relative to the district. Buyers should underwrite the architecture, the location and land value rather than income yield.
Area Transformation
Bishan's transformation is long delivered and the town is now mature. It was developed from the 1980s onwards as one of Singapore's model HDB towns, with the MRT interchange arriving with the North-South Line in 1987 and the Circle Line extension in 2009, and the town centre building out around Junction 8. The most significant change in recent years is environmental rather than infrastructural: the conversion of the Kallang River through Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park into a naturalised waterway, completed in 2012, is widely regarded as a landmark in Singapore's approach to blue-green infrastructure and has lifted the amenity of the whole town. Sky Habitat itself, launched in 2012 and completed in 2016, was part of the later wave of private redevelopment that replaced older low-rise stock around Bishan Central. Looking forward, the changes to expect are incremental - continued replacement of older private apartments with newer towers, further enhancement of the park connector network, and the knock-on effects of the Cross Island Line, which will pass through the wider Bishan and Ang Mo Kio area and add interchange options over the coming decade. This is a mature town where the sensible expectation is preservation of quality rather than reinvention.
