Experience the captivating blend of history and modernity in Tanjong Katong, a neighbourhood that gracefully evolved from a maritime hub to a picturesque residential haven. The name of this neighbourhood is rooted in Malay, signifying the point where the now-extinct Katong sea turtle species once dwelled. Today, Tanjong Katong seamlessly marries the old and the new with its quaint cafes and street art that coexist alongside its heritage architecture, creating an ambiance where history blends harmoniously with contemporary dynamism.
Beyond aesthetics, Tanjong Katong offers access to an exceptional lifestyle, as it’s a mere 10-minute walk from the iconic East Coast Park, providing an opportunity to indulge in leisurely strolls and picnics by the pristine shoreline. A 15-minute bus ride away is the Geylang Serai Market and Food Centre, which is a bustling market home to traditional Malay foods and cultural goods. This market is especially vibrant during the festive seasons.
Shophouse living means living within conservation shophouses – quintessentially Singaporean works of art. These storied shophouses boast high ceilings, patterned jalousie windows, unique façades and layouts, and each one with its own unique history that will make your everyday living experience that much more memorable.
As historical urban dwellings, shophouses are located in vibrant heritage districts that allow you to experience that street level ambience and belong to the neighbourhood. When you live at Figment, you are living in a boutique home – not a cookie-cutter, copied-and-pasted condo compound.
Not so much – this is Figment’s vision of shared housing for grown-ups – that’s mature working professionals. We aren’t here to slice and dice apartments into matchboxes just to stuff as many ‘tenants’ as possible into a building, adult-dorm style. With Figment you always have room to breathe.
