The Chancery Residences is a low density cluster townhouse project located at Chancery Lane, Singapore. The development comprises of 33 clustered terraces and 1 detached bungalow situated at a quiet and peaceful residential estate near Newton and Novena, not far from Singapore’s Central Business District.

Designed to give individual townhouses a maximum of privacy within the tight site, each space looks out onto extensive landscaped gardens designed to screen views. With a heritage listed “Black & White House” located on the adjacent large open estate borrowed views to this property were developed.

Each townhouse is 3 storeys inclusive of basement car park/ utility area with a roof terrace. Natural ventilation was crucial to the development with the basement areas being naturally ventilated by lifting of the buildings 1m above natural grade. Internal courtyards similar to those developed in the Traditional Singapore Shop-Houses were included to allow more natural light to penetrate the residences.

The Chancery Residence has full condominium facilities such as:

• Swimming Pool

• Wading Pool

• Jacuzzi

• Fitness Area

• Playground
