Reading Time: 5 minutes
Faber Residence arrives at one of the most strategically significant moments in Singapore’s residential property market. The 399-unit new launch condo is positioned in the District 3/4 corridor — the gateway to Singapore’s Greater Southern Waterfront (GSW) transformation, one of the largest urban regeneration projects in the city-state’s history. With Harbourfront MRT (NEL/CCL interchange) and VivoCity, Asia’s largest mall, as immediate neighbours, and Sentosa just minutes away, Faber Residence offers a lifestyle proposition that is genuinely rare among Singapore new launches.
Priced from $1,943 PSF to $3,091 PSF, Faber Residence spans a wide range of unit sizes and price points — accommodating investors seeking rental yield, owner-occupiers drawn to the Harbourfront lifestyle, and long-term holders positioning for the GSW uplift story. For buyers comparing new launch condos in Singapore, this guide covers everything you need to know before registering for VVIP preview.
What Is Faber Residence?
Faber Residence is a new launch residential development in Singapore, comprising 399 units across a range of configurations. The development draws its name from the Faber area — synonymous with Telok Blangah Hill, Mount Faber Park, and the cable car ridge that defines the skyline of Singapore’s southern coast.
Project at a glance:
- Project name: Faber Residence
- Total units: 399
- District: D3/D4 (Harbourfront / Telok Blangah / Mount Faber corridor)
- Price range: $1,943–$3,091 PSF
- Status: New launch, VVIP preview registrations open
- Nearest MRT: Harbourfront MRT (NEL/CCL interchange)
The Harbourfront / Telok Blangah district has historically been underserved by new residential supply — particularly compared to its proximity to the city and the premium lifestyle anchors in the area. Faber Residence represents a fresh opportunity to enter a location that is on the cusp of major transformation, at prices that have not yet fully reflected the Greater Southern Waterfront premium.
For buyers evaluating costs, understanding your ABSD Singapore 2026 obligations and running a TDSR Singapore 2026 assessment are essential first steps before committing to any new launch purchase.
The Greater Southern Waterfront — Transformation Story and Property Upside
The Greater Southern Waterfront (GSW) is Singapore’s most ambitious urban transformation project since Marina Bay. Stretching across 2,000 hectares from Pasir Panjang to Marina East, it encompasses former industrial land, existing waterfront districts, and new reclaimed areas — all to be transformed into a world-class mixed-use precinct with homes, parks, commercial nodes, and waterfront promenades.
Key elements of the GSW transformation that directly benefit Faber Residence buyers:
- Southern Islands integration: Increased connectivity between the mainland, Sentosa, and the Southern Islands under URA’s long-term masterplan
- Pasir Panjang Power District: Heritage industrial buildings being converted to arts, culture, and lifestyle uses — creating a new creative precinct south of Faber
- Tanjong Pagar waterfront: New residential and commercial development north of the GSW corridor, adding F&B, marina, and lifestyle offerings
- Mount Faber and Telok Blangah Hill: Expanded green corridors and park connectors linking the southern ridge to the GSW waterfront
- Reduced industrial land: The gradual relocation of port operations from Tanjong Pagar and Pasir Panjang over the next 10–15 years will open up massive swaths of waterfront land for new development
Properties in the D3/D4 GSW corridor are positioned to benefit from a sustained, multi-decade investment cycle driven by government commitment, infrastructure spending, and the creation of a new urban precinct with international-calibre amenities. Faber Residence, given its location and timing, sits at the early phase of this value cycle — before the transformation premium is fully baked into pricing.
Tracking Singapore GLS tender 2026 results in the GSW corridor provides additional context on developer confidence and land pricing trends in this area.
Faber Residence Pricing Guide
Faber Residence is priced across a broad PSF range — $1,943 PSF to $3,091 PSF — reflecting the diversity of unit types and floor levels within the development. Understanding this range is essential for budgeting and investment analysis.
Indicative pricing structure:
| Unit Type | Indicative PSF Range | Ideal For |
|---|---|---|
| 1-Bedroom | $2,400–$3,091 PSF | Investors, rental yield play |
| 2-Bedroom | $2,200–$2,800 PSF | Couples, small families, investors |
| 3-Bedroom | $1,943–$2,400 PSF | Families, owner-occupiers |
| 4-Bedroom / Premium | $2,000–$2,600 PSF | Larger families, upsizers |
Note: PSF ranges above are indicative and based on available market intelligence. Actual pricing by unit type and stack will be confirmed at the official launch. Contact Alvin Tan for the most current price list.
The lower end of the range ($1,943 PSF) is particularly compelling when benchmarked against comparable new launches in Districts 1–4. Given the GSW transformation narrative, proximity to Harbourfront MRT, and the limited pipeline of new supply in this corridor, Faber Residence’s entry pricing represents strong relative value.
For investors modelling yield, Harbourfront is a proven rental market driven by corporate demand from Keppel, Mapletree, VivoCity retail, and the cruise terminal — providing a stable tenant pool for smaller unit types.
Harbourfront and Mount Faber — A Lifestyle Unlike Any Other
One of Faber Residence’s most underrated selling points is the sheer quality and variety of lifestyle it delivers — within walking distance, without a car.
VivoCity — Singapore’s Largest Mall
VivoCity is not just a mall — it is a destination. With over 300 retail and dining options, a rooftop park with views across Sentosa, a cinema, and direct connectivity to Sentosa via the Sentosa Express monorail, VivoCity gives Faber Residence residents access to a lifestyle anchor that competes with any CCR address. For families, it means groceries, dining, entertainment, and children’s activities all within a 5-minute walk.
Sentosa — Singapore’s Leisure Island
Sentosa is one of Asia’s premium leisure islands — home to Universal Studios Singapore, S.E.A. Aquarium, Resorts World Sentosa, Palawan Beach, and dozens of golf courses, spas, and private clubs. For Faber Residence residents, Sentosa is not a day trip destination — it is an extension of their backyard. The cable car from Mount Faber provides a scenic alternative to the land bridge for those who want a more dramatic approach.
Mount Faber Park and the Southern Ridges
The Southern Ridges is one of Singapore’s finest walking and cycling routes — a 10km green corridor connecting Mount Faber, Telok Blangah Hill, HortPark, Kent Ridge Park, and Labrador Nature Reserve. For nature lovers, cyclists, and anyone who values green lung access from their doorstep, Faber Residence’s proximity to this corridor is a genuine lifestyle differentiator that no amount of rooftop gym or pool can replicate.
Harbourfront MRT — Dual-Line Interchange
Harbourfront MRT sits at the interchange of the North-East Line (NEL) and Circle Line (CCL) — giving residents direct access to Dhoby Ghaut (NEL/CCL/NSL triple interchange), HarbourFront’s Circle Line connection to the CBD via Bayfront, and the full length of both lines without transfer. For professionals working in the CBD, Marina Bay, or Paya Lebar, the commute from Faber Residence is among the most efficient of any new launch address.
VVIP Preview Registration — Secure Your Faber Residence Unit
VVIP preview is where buying decisions in Singapore’s new launch market are made. It is the period before public launch when registered prospects receive:
- First access to complete floor plans and pricing by stack and level
- Priority unit selection before public balloting opens
- Direct briefings from the developer’s sales team and appointed agents
- The ability to make indicative choices on preferred units before competition intensifies
In strong launches — particularly those tied to infrastructure transformation stories like the GSW — VVIP preview registrations can be oversubscribed. Buyers who delay registration risk being placed in a later balloting queue with reduced unit choice.
The optimal approach is to register interest now, attend the preview briefing with a clear budget and unit preference in mind, and make a decision based on the confirmed price list rather than speculation.
