Boasting arguably Asia’s most thriving property market as well some of its most majestic cityscapes, it is no wonder that Singapore’s residential high rises continue to be among the most coveted real estate tickets right now.
And just months after billionaire inventor James Dyson tapped Singapore as his new home and moved into his £43m five-bedroom luxury penthouse atop Wallich Residence – the Lion City’s highest point at 290 metres – another super penthouse has been officially unveiled in the past weeks.
Perched across the 39th to 41st floors of the Concourse Skyline residential tower in the heart of Singapore’s Beach Road is The Concourse Skyline Penthouse, which spans an extraordinary 11,130sqft (giving it its ‘super penthouse’ status according to List Sotheby’s International Realty) and was conceived by developer Hong Fok Land Limited in collaboration with magazine Robb Report Singapore and acclaimed design firm The I.D. Dept.
These star-studded credentials set the stage for the lair’s masterfully considered interiors that suavely marries timeless splendour with urban sophistication, outfitted in bespoke furnishings and décor items, extensively sourced pieces and smart technologies.
Lending to the grandeur of the marble-clad, high-ceilinged ground floor, reached via a private elevator, are many exclusive made-to-order items such as a Nathalie Ziegler’s glass chandelier, a rocking chair (one of 12 pieces in the world) by British-Israeli designer Ron Arad and a Lasvit installation suspended above a Yamaha GB1K grand piano. Paintings, sculptures, hand-crafted wallpaper and fabrics embellish many of the rooms.
Steps away from the main living and dining areas on the ground floor is a bespoke spa and wellness room sure to thrill the jet-setting occupants the penthouse is designed for. The ultimate luxury after a hectic work trip? A pampering session by an on-demand Six Senses Spa masseuse just one call away, of course.
Further gems are uncovered as you climb towards the second floor that exudes a more intimate sensibility. Five bedrooms include a master en suite huge enough to fit two king beds; next to which a private outdoor pool sits on part of the terrace, offering just the perfect little al fresco breakfast spot every morning. Over in the bathroom, a bespoke Meisterstuck Soundwave matte black bathtub – which can be transformed into a speaker and pulsates to the beat of the music when connected to a bluetooth device – sits next to his-and-hers walk-in closets, twin sinks and a standing shower.
The stunning roof garden in turn is transformed into a sprawling entertaining space that is perfect for al fresco barbecues – all that, to be enjoyed right in front of spectacular panoramic views of the city’s glittering skyline punctuated by Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore Flyer.
The property is handled by List Sotheby’s International Realty.
