Factsheet
Why The Brooks I & The Brooks II @ Springside
A landmark development that brings together an unbeatable location and trusted developer pedigree.
Retail on the ground floor, residences above
The Brooks is a stacked mixed-use development rather than a condominium with a shop next door: retail units occupy the first level, the communal facilities and some apartments the second, and apartments the third and fourth. With 34 retail units across two blocks, the retail component is substantial enough to give the address a genuine village-centre character.
Freehold, and part of a paired development
Both The Brooks I and The Brooks II are freehold. The two blocks were developed together as a pair - 33 residences and 19 retail units in The Brooks I on a 3,309 sqm site, and 28 residences and 15 retail units in The Brooks II on 3,020 sqm - which is why the combined development has more retail amenity than a single block of 61 units would normally carry.
Springleaf MRT 704m on the Thomson-East Coast Line
Springleaf station is about 704m away. It is on the Thomson-East Coast Line, which opened along the Upper Thomson corridor and now runs through the city to Marina Bay and the east coast - a line that materially improved the connectivity of this part of District 26 when it began service.
Springside, an enclave of landed housing
Springside is a low-density landed-housing enclave in District 26, on the edge of the Central Catchment Nature Reserve and close to Upper Thomson, Yio Chu Kang and the Seletar corridor. The surrounding zoning is low-rise and largely landed, which means the outlook and the quiet character of the neighbourhood are unlikely to change.
Upper Thomson and Springleaf eating houses nearby
The Upper Thomson corridor has one of the better concentrations of cafes and eating houses in the north, and the Springleaf and Thong Hoe area adds local food options within walking distance. Casuarina Curry, the Springleaf Prata Place and the Upper Thomson cafes are all close, and Sembawang Hills and Tagore add more.
Freehold commercial units alongside the residences
Because the development is stratified as both residential and commercial, the retail units are separately owned and traded separately from the apartments. For an investor that means exposure to two different markets within one building, and for a resident it means the shops and services downstairs are permanently part of the address rather than a neighbouring leasehold landlord's decision.

The Brooks I & The Brooks II @ Springside
D26 - Mandai / Upper Thomson
The Brooks I & The Brooks II @ Springside is a freehold mixed-use development at Springside Walk, District 26, developed by Kallang Development Pte Ltd. It comprises two four-storey blocks designed by ADDP Architects, together holding 61 residential apartments and 34 retail units, with facilities on the second level, retail on the first level and apartments on the second to fourth levels, plus two basement car parks. The Brooks I holds 33 residences and 19 retail units on a site of about 3,309 sqm, and The Brooks II holds 28 residences and 15 retail units on about 3,020 sqm. Both obtained their Temporary Occupation Permit on 30 June 2017.
The stacked format is the defining characteristic, and it is what makes the development work as an address. Rather than a gated condominium with an occasional shop at the entrance, The Brooks places retail at street level beneath the homes, and with 34 retail units across the two blocks the ground plane is a functioning row of shops and services rather than a token commercial element. For residents, that means daily errands are downstairs rather than a drive. For an investor, it means the residential and commercial strata units are separately held and traded, giving exposure to two distinct markets within one building - with the commercial units typically producing higher gross returns but carrying business-cycle and vacancy risk that residential does not.
The unit types are modest and practical: one-bedroom plus study apartments of around 571 to 603 sqft, and two-bedroom units with activity space of about 818 sqft. The development is not aimed at large families, and it is better understood as housing for singles, couples and small households who want a low-maintenance home in a low-density location with shops at the door.
The setting is Springside, a landed-housing enclave in District 26 on the edge of the Central Catchment Nature Reserve, near Upper Thomson, Yio Chu Kang and the Seletar corridor. The surrounding zoning is low-rise and largely landed, so the outlook and the quiet character of the neighbourhood are unlikely to change - a meaningful and durable advantage in a market where most new supply is high-rise. Springleaf station on the Thomson-East Coast Line is about 704m away, and the line runs through the city to Marina Bay and the east coast. The Upper Thomson corridor, with its concentration of cafes and eating houses, and the local food options at Springleaf and Thong Hoe, are within walking distance.
The Developer
Backed by Kallang Development Pte Ltd.
Kallang Development Pte Ltd
The Brooks I & The Brooks II @ Springside were developed by Kallang Development Pte Ltd, with ADDP Architects as design architect. The two blocks were planned and delivered as a pair on adjoining Springside Walk parcels, with the residential and retail components stratified separately. The same developer is associated with the Brooks Collection at Springside, a landed housing development nearby.
Notable Projects
Why The Brooks I & The Brooks II @ Springside Stands Out
A closer look at the factors that make this development a compelling opportunity.
Location & Connectivity
Springside is a low-density landed enclave in District 26, and that setting is the primary advantage. The surrounding zoning is low-rise and largely landed, on the edge of the Central Catchment Nature Reserve, which means the outlook from the development is unlikely to be built up and the neighbourhood will retain its quiet, semi-rural character - a durable advantage in a market where most new supply is high-rise and where few freehold parcels of this type exist. Connectivity improved materially with the Thomson-East Coast Line: Springleaf station is about 704m away, and the line runs from Woodlands in the north through Upper Thomson, Stevens, Orchard, Marina Bay and on to the east coast, so a single line reaches the city core and the financial district. Road access via Upper Thomson Road, Yio Chu Kang Road, the Seletar Expressway and the Central Expressway puts Yio Chu Kang, Ang Mo Kio, Bishan and the city within reasonable reach, and the Seletar Aerospace Park and the northern industrial corridors are close for employment. The Upper Thomson corridor, with its concentration of cafes and eating houses, and the local food options at Springleaf and Thong Hoe, are within walking distance rather than a drive.
Amenities & Lifestyle
The development's own ground floor is a significant part of the amenity, and that is unusual. With 34 retail units across the two blocks, the street level functions as a small commercial row, so residents have shops and services downstairs rather than depending entirely on the surrounding area. Beyond the building, the Upper Thomson corridor has one of the better concentrations of cafes and eating houses in the north, with Casuarina Curry, the Springleaf Prata Place and the Upper Thomson cafe strip all close, and Sembawang Hills and Tagore adding more within a short drive. Larger retail means the Ang Mo Kio town centre, AMK Hub, Northpoint City at Yishun or the Thomson Plaza area, all within a reasonable drive. On recreation, the Central Catchment Nature Reserve, MacRitchie Reservoir with its trails and treetop walk, Lower Peirce Reservoir, the Springleaf Nature Park and the round-island and park connector routes are all in the immediate area - an unusual concentration of green space for a residential location. On schooling, there are no schools within a kilometre, which reflects the low-density setting; the nearest primary and secondary schools are in the Yio Chu Kang, Ang Mo Kio and Upper Thomson areas within a short drive.
Rental & Investment
The rental market at Springside is a niche one and it should be assessed as such. The tenant base is small households - singles, couples and two-person households, which matches the one-bedroom plus study and two-bedroom unit formats - who want a low-density, nature-adjacent home with the Thomson-East Coast Line within walking distance, plus a component of professionals working at the Seletar Aerospace Park and in the northern industrial and aviation corridors, and tenants who value the Upper Thomson eating scene and the proximity to MacRitchie and the nature reserves. The 34 retail units generate their own rental demand from small business operators wanting a freehold strata shopfront in a landed enclave, which is a different and often more resilient tenant pool than a residential one. What supports returns here is scarcity: freehold stock in a landed enclave turns over slowly, the development is small enough that an owner competes against very few comparable units, and the retail units are freehold strata shops, which are a limited category in the north. What limits the case is the small unit sizes, the absence of schools within a kilometre, the rail station being about 704m away, and the narrow comparable pool - this is not a high-turnover, high-yield location. Buyers should underwrite the freehold tenure, the low-density setting and the mixed-use structure rather than rental growth.
Area Transformation
Springside and Upper Thomson have changed relatively little, and the changes that did occur were about conservation and rail rather than redevelopment. The area was historically a rural and agricultural fringe of the island, with kampongs, rubber and fruit smallholdings and market gardens, and the landed estates around Springside, Sembawang Hills, Tagore and Thomson Hills were developed from the mid-twentieth century as low-rise residential enclaves. That pattern has held: the surrounding zoning remains largely landed and low-rise, and the Central Catchment Nature Reserve and the reservoir system to the west and south have been permanently protected, which effectively caps how much the immediate area can be built up. The most significant change to the wider area was the Thomson-East Coast Line, which opened through the Upper Thomson corridor - adding Springleaf and Upper Thomson stations - and connected the area directly to the city, Marina Bay and the east coast for the first time. Before that, the corridor depended on buses and on the Central Expressway. The other meaningful development has been the growth of the Seletar Aerospace Park and the northern aviation and industrial cluster, which has added employment within reasonable reach. Looking forward, the changes to expect are incremental and constrained: continued improvement in the park connector and nature park network, the piecemeal replacement of older landed housing with new individual homes, and the ongoing evolution of Upper Thomson as a food and lifestyle corridor. The conservation of the nature reserve and the low-rise zoning mean Springside should remain recognisably itself, which is the main long-term protection for an owner here.
