Set within the heart of Tengah’s Plantation District, Plantation Acres is a visionary public housing project developed by the Housing and Development Board (HDB) of Singapore. With 1,193 residential units spread across a 47,222 m² site, this development reimagines community living by blending nature, connectivity, and sustainability.
The design takes inspiration from the site’s agricultural roots—reflected in the bold rectilinear forms and two well-defined central courtyards that echo the layout of historic plantation villas. These green courtyards not only foster community interaction but also provide open, breathable spaces in an urban setting.
Strategically planned, the precinct’s Multi-storey Carpark and Socio-Communal Facility Block serve as effective noise and visual buffers from the adjacent MRT viaduct. On the west, Plantation Acres seamlessly connects to Tengah’s iconic Farmway network, linking residents to linear parks, cycling paths, and recreational amenities, promoting active lifestyles and green mobility. To the south, direct links to future educational institutions ensure convenience for families.
Built with Pre-fabricated, Pre-finished Volumetric Construction (PPVC), the project enhances construction quality and efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. The integration of a Centralised Cooling System in residential units also reflects a commitment to long-term energy efficiency and climate-responsive living.
Plantation Acres is more than a housing development—it's a forward-thinking, eco-friendly community rooted in the past but built for tomorrow.
Where nature, comfort, and smart living come together in perfect harmony.
