Where is the tallest HDB flat in Singapore located? The answer’s easy: The Pinnacle @ Duxton. The allure of staying on a high floor has enticed an increasing number of people to part with upwards of a million dollars for an HDB unit at the project.
Personally, having an amazing view is the main reason we’d prefer to stay on a high floor versus a low one. If you’re like us and want to look for an HDB flat on a high floor, you’re at the right place.
According to Teoalida, 38 HDB blocks in Singapore are 41 to 50 storeys high, and 151 flats stand 31 to 40 floors tall. So we’ve used the website as a resource, fact-checked the information against HDB’s brochures and generally tried our best to compile this list of HDB flats that are over 30 storeys high. Enjoy!
Tanjong Pagar (Central)
The Pinnacle @ Duxton
At 50-storeys tall, these seven HDB blocks take high-rise flats to the next level. Residents on the higher floors can see all the way to Keppel Harbour, Tanjong Pagar and Sentosa.
There are two sky bridges on the 26th and 50th floor that connect the different blocks. If you don’t live here but want to visit the 50th storey sky bridge, you can do so for a small $6 fee. Browse listings for Pinnacle @ Duxton.

Holland Village and Buona Vista (Central)
Ghim Moh Valley at night.
The Holland Village and Buona Vista neighbourhoods have a high percentage of private property covering the areas. However, there is a smattering of HDB flats around the estate.
Prominent schools in the area include Anglo-Chinese School (Independent), Fairfield Methodist Secondary School, and Anglo-Chinese Junior College. Those who have young children can look into moving closer to choice primary schools such as Fairfield Methodist School (Primary) and Henry Park Primary School.

Commonwealth and Queenstown (Central)

Commonwealth used to be a part of Queenstown. These neighbourhoods are home to some of the oldest HDB estates in Singapore. Due to their city fringe location, many million-dollar HDB flat transactions which have taken place come from properties located in these areas.

New BTOs such as Kempas Residences are still under construction and expected to be completed in late 2024. And thanks to the Downtown and North East lines, residents of these estates experience excellent connectivity.

The centrally located neighbourhoods of Ang Mo Kio, Marymount and Bishan remain some of the most populated towns in Singapore. The trade-off for crazy peak hour crowds is excellent connectivity via public transport and roads to the CBD.
Those who live on high floors, especially residents of the DBSS Natura Loft, will have views overlooking the city and/or the park.

Estates in the North are typically not as tall, perhaps due to air-zone restrictions. Marsiling Heights and Marsiling Greenview comprise both rental and for-sale units to allow rental flats to better integrate into the heartlands. On the other hand, Woodlands Peak is made up of studio apartments and 3-room flats.
