Singapore, 4 September 2024 – Pioneer Singapore property developer Bukit Sembawang
Estates Limited (“BSEL”) is set to preview its highly anticipated residential development 8@BT
this Saturday, 7 September. Situated along Bukit Timah Link, 8@BT is conveniently nestled in
the heart of Bukit Timah, one of Singapore’s most historically rich and sought-after residential
enclaves. Following the success of the sold-out LIV@MB in Mountbatten, 8@BT represents the
latest chapter in Bukit Sembawang’s legacy of creating luxurious and thoughtfully designed
homes that stand the test of time.
Lisa Goh, General Manager (Marketing and Sales) at Bukit Sembawang said, “8@BT
embodies Bukit Sembawang’s commitment to creating thoughtfully designed living spaces that
cater to the evolving needs of today’s homebuyers. Every single detail has been meticulously
considered and crafted to create a truly unique space for residents, delivering a seamless blend
of tailored living spaces and modern conveniences – within and beyond each individual home.
We have infused every aspect of 8@BT with our design philosophy, creating distinctive,
aspirational homes where residents can build their own legacies. We are proud to preview 8@BT
this weekend, a development that will not only be a centrepiece in Bukit Timah’s continued
evolution, but also a testament to our dedication to delivering homes with enduring value for
generations to come.
Situated at the heart of the Bukit Timah district and overlooking Bukit Timah Hill, the exclusive
158-unit District 21 residential property embodies a harmonious blend of tranquil living and
modern conveniences. With Bukit Sembawang’s deep expertise in designing and developing
exceptional landed homes across Singapore, the developer has applied the same ethos in
thoughtfully curating every detail within 8@BT – from its main entrance to common spaces, and
individual units.
The 99-year leasehold luxury development consists of two 20-story North-South facing towers,
housing 158 exclusive units. The unit mix comprises one to four-bedders, and two penthouses
ranging from 517 sq ft to 1,593 sq ft. The estimated TOP date is set for Q4 2027.
A Strategically Located Sanctuary
Bukit Timah is a prestigious district well-known for its blend of natural, historical, and modern-day
conveniences. The district has consistently been one of Singapore’s most sought-after residential
areas due to this unique mix of tranquillity and seamless connectivity, offering a serene living
environment surrounded by natural beauty amidst Singapore’s high-rise, high-density urban
landscape.
The location is also famed for its proximity to top-tier educational institutions along the Bukit Timah
education belt. This provides easy access for residents of 8@BT to a wide range of schools
including Hwa Chong Institution, Methodist Girls’ School, Nanyang Primary School, NUS,
Singapore Polytechnic, and Singapore Chinese Girls’ School.
Just a 2-minute stroll from Beauty World MRT, residents of 8@BT will also benefit from the
convenience of the Downtown Line, providing residents with direct access to the Central Business
District (CBD), Orchard Road, the upcoming “2nd CBD” at Jurong Lake District, and other key
areas across the island. Additionally, 8@BT offers easy access to major expressways such as
the Pan Island Expressway and Ayer Rajah Expressway, ensuring that all corners of the city are
within reach.
Enduring Value for Generations to Come
Bukit Timah sits at the heart of the Singapore government’s plans to revitalize and conserve key
parts of the island, making it a focal point in the Urban Redevelopment Authority’s (URA) Draft
Master Plan 2019.
The Plan aims to enhance connectivity, green spaces, and community amenities, ensuring that
the district continues to evolve while preserving its rich heritage. Plans underway include the
construction of the Bukit Timah Integrated Transport Hub and Community Building, extension of
the Rail Corridor, conservation of historic buildings including the Bukit Timah Fire station and
Railway Station Quarters, and most recently, the unveiling of plans for the revitalisation of Bukit
Timah Turf City in May this year.
Amidst this ongoing transformation, 8@BT offers residents the unique advantage of living in a
neighbourhood that is both historically significant and positioned for future growth. It provides a
rare opportunity to experience the best of both worlds—tranquil living amidst lush greenery,
combined with the modern conveniences and enhanced infrastructure that the Master Plan will
bring to the area.
A Seamless Blend of Modern Architecture and Nature’s Elements
The stunning architectural design of 8@BT is a tribute to nature. The development’s facade
features unique cascading fins and natural contours, creating a striking visual connection to the
surrounding landscape.
This theme extends to the development’s facilities, which are thoughtfully designed to reflect and
celebrate the beauty of nature. The Quarry draws inspiration from the colour palette and outline
of quarries, featuring a Slide Pool, a 25-meter Quarry Pool, a pool deck, and the Furo bath that
replicates the calming experience of a Japanese sauna.
The Rainforest, surrounded by lush greenery, evokes the serene experience of being immersed
in a rainforest, with amenities such as a fitness pool, a sunbathing lawn, and a sensory trail.
Finally, the Campsite takes inspiration from Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, offering a dedicated
space for fun family outdoor activities. Much like having a camping ground in your own backyard,
it’s a perfect place for bonding, complete with BBQ facilities and a children’s playground.
A Life Enhanced by Sustainable and Smart Choices
Emphasizing sustainable design and construction at 8@BT is a key pillar of Bukit Sembawang’s commitment to creating homes that future generations can inherit and build their lives in.
The development’s common facilities such as the clubhouse, meeting room and pools are powered by solar panels, which help reduce energy consumption and enhance long-term cost savings for residents. Additionally, the inclusion of two dedicated EV charging lots supports the eco-conscious choices of residents, further contributing to the reduction of the community’s overall carbon footprint. To minimise the land footprint, promote lower energy consumption, and deliver greater convenience to residents, a portion of the parking spaces is also equipped with an automated parking system.
Within all residential units, Bukit Sembawang has also ensured that residents can enjoy cross ventilation for better indoor air quality. Each unit is also fitted with appliances that elevate both water and energy efficiency. 8@BT will be assessed for BCA Green Mark certification during construction, following in the footsteps of LIV@MB and The Atelier.
Complementing these sustainable features, 8@BT’s smart technology features enable residents to take control of their energy usage while managing their everyday activities conveniently. With the Smart Gateway, residents can effortlessly manage their home devices through a mobile app, while the Smart Air-Conditioning Control System allows for seamless climate management from any connected device. The Smart Digital Lockset ensures secure, keyless entry, and the Smart Invite feature enables pre-registration for visitor access. Booking amenities is made easy with Smart Booking, and the Smart Parcel service eliminates the need to wait for deliveries, offering flexibility in retrieving packages.
Thoughtfully crafted living spaces for the whole family
Each unit type at 8@BT is carefully crafted and sized to cater to various buyer aspirations,
whether for own stay or investment, different budgets, and family sizes.
Full-length mirrors are included in the bathrooms for selected units — an uncommon yet highly
practical feature that adds both practicality and a touch of luxury. Additionally, almost all
kitchens, bathrooms, and powder rooms are equipped with natural ventilation, ensuring a bright
and airy atmosphere throughout each home.
The 3 and 4-bedroom units feature balconies with slide-and-fold glass doors, allowing the living
and dining areas to be fully extended for a more spacious and open-concept environment. The
3-bedroom units also offer varying bedroom sizes, with the second bedroom accommodating a
queen-sized bed, while the third bedroom is designed as a versatile space, suitable for use as a
study or hobby room.
To maximize interior space, the 1 and 2-bedroom units are designed without balconies, making
them ideal for singles and small families. The 2-bedroom units also offer flexible configurations,
with options for 1 or 1.5 bathrooms, allowing homebuyers to tailor their living space according
to their needs, whether they prioritize additional living space or the convenience of a powder
room for guests.
8@BT’s two penthouse units are uniquely designed to reflect the evolving lifestyles of today’s
homebuyers. The 1,593 sq ft PH2 unit is ideal for buyers who prefer more spacious living areas,
and a luxurious retreat within their very own master bedroom. PH2 features a spacious master
bedroom, a second bedroom, and a study.
Catering to homeowners who require more individual spaces for added privacy, the 1,356 sq ft
PH1 is designed with a total of four bedrooms. Both penthouse units feature 4.35-meter-high
ceilings and are served by private lifts, enhancing the sense of luxury and exclusivity.

8@BT is set for previews from 7 September 2024, with sales commencing on 21 September
