Live la belle vie or the good life, as they say in France
Before work-life balance was a thing, the French were already the envy of other countries with their 35-hour work weeks. Clearly, these folks understand that a well-rested mind is a productive one.
With the pandemic breaking down boundaries between work and home, the need to elevate our precious downtime has become a key priority, and many have begun to realise the importance of investing in a comfortable abode you can call home.
Expressing that promise is Provence Residence, a collection of nine high-rise blocks of executive condominium near Canberra MRT, designed to bring a little French flavour to your doorstep.
A HOME FIT FOR ROYALTY
Whether you’re working from home or returning after a long day at the office, your home at Provence Residence will always be a welcome retreat.
Evoking the effortless flair of the French and restful vibes of its namesake region, every apartment brings you creature comforts in a stylish, contemporary design. Through the inclusion of French-inspired glass details and symmetrical paneling, the thoughtful crafting quietly impresses while presenting a soothing ambience for its owners.
Finished in a sophisticated palette of black, grey and white accents, all Provence Residence homes also feature prestigious Swiss fittings from Franke in the kitchen and Axent in the bathrooms.
Whether you’re choosing from a Chic, Luxe, Elite or Grande unit option, you’re looking at either three- or four-bedroom apartments that boast a spacious floor plan (starting from 883 sq ft), most with en-suite rooms, yards and household shelters. This residential equity is achieved through clever design and also promotes a harmonious setting for families who cherish privacy. In tribute to Provence, each block is topped with its very own roof terrace, for when you need to catch a scenic moment.
SPARK THAT JOIE DE VIVRE
A significant part of fulfilment in life is the sense of belonging. Other than offering relaxing home escapes, Provence Residence invites communal interactions within its beautifully designed compound.
A 50m lap pool is the highlight of the property, stretching out like an oasis. It drops off into an infinity edge as it leads the eyes to the green horizon and is accompanied by the Infinity Edge Walk. This idyllic feature is surrounded by generous decks to sun or lounge at, as well as pavilions inviting residents to wind down for the day.
As part of the Jardin d’eau (Water Garden) compound, the lap pool is joined by other pool options, including one for the family and a jet option to ease tired muscles. Upholding the garden aspect are striking topiaries that decorate the area, as well as Romance Court – a breezy seating area surrounded by curated flora on trellises and murmuring water features.
For more garden escapes, the Sanctuaire du Jardin (Garden Sanctuary) hugging the north-west section of Provence Residence offers a botanical adventure. Thematic gardens extend solace at any time of the day, with offerings ranging from fragrant plants to manicured landscaping to uplift and soothe.
When you’re ready to connect, the condominium offers picturesque pavilions and settings for intimate social gatherings. The Dining Pavilion and Chill Out Lawn grant relaxed privacy, and when the pandemic is over, the Party BBQ Pavilion and Party Alfresco Dining are ideal for larger groups to mingle. If the weather’s right, sky dining and sky lounge options are available on the second level, for those open-air romantic soirees.
The active-minded are not forgotten. On top of a well-equipped gym room, there’s a half basketball court, fitness corner and jogging track to sweat it all out. The nearby Sembawang Park and Sembawang Hot Springs Park are destinations that also invite you to visit on your bicycle.
CONNECTION IS KEY
From the convenience of urban essentials to the green retreats of nature reserves, Provence Residence positions you within easy access to all that life has to offer.
Only a seven-minute walk away, Canberra MRT sits in the middle of the North South (Red) Line, allowing for a seamless commute to important hubs like Orchard, City Hall and Raffles Place on one end, and a gateway to the west of Singapore on the other.
Just across the road, Canberra Plaza is an easy fix for daily necessities. Familiar brands such as BreadTalk, Starbucks, NTUC FairPrice, Guardian, McDonald’s, A&W and Daiso are housed in this four-level mall. For more shopping options just a few extra minutes away, Sembawang Shopping Centre, Sun Plaza and Chong Pang Market & Food Centre will satisfy any needs.
Besides being near to modern conveniences, including two primary schools and three healthcare facilities, Provence Residence is also well-connected to nature. A short drive away is the Mandai Wildlife Park, where the world-famous Singapore Zoo, Night Safari and River Safari make for an enriching excursion trio.
The Bukit Canberra project is also generating excitement. The integrated community hub, due to open in phases, will not only have generous green spaces with 3km worth of trails and a 700-seater hawker centre within, but be home to a polyclinic with senior care facilities, multiple swimming pools, a 500-seater sports hall and Singapore’s largest gym spanning 1,500 sq m.
Included as part of the plan for the North Coast Innovation Corridor, residents of Provence Residence will enjoy a future-ready development that melds the best of urban and active iving.
