A stunning 2 1/2-storey bungalow on Chiltern Drive is now up for grabs at a price of $14.5 million. The owner, who goes by the name Dr. Lim, was immediately drawn to the property’s large land size over 30 years ago when he first discovered it. At the time, he was looking for a spacious home that could comfortably accommodate his large family of seven, including his wife, four young sons, and mother. The original single-storey bungalow was a perfect fit for his family and they made the purchase back in 1991.
The property is situated on a generous land size of 12,758 sq ft and is a corner plot in the reputable landed housing estate of Braddell Heights. With an asking price of $14.5 million, the bungalow boasts a land rate of $1,137 psf.
Dr. Lim, now in his retirement years, and his wife, are looking to sell the property as their children have grown and moved out. They have engaged the services of Martin Goh, principal consultant at Realstar Premier Group, as their exclusive marketing agent for the sale of the bungalow.

“Over the years, our family has made this house our home. As our children have grown up and the family needs less space, we have decided to sell this property and plan for our legacy,” says Dr. Lim.
The impressive car porch and driveway can accommodate up to 15 cars, and the ground floor boasts a separate living and dining room, wet and dry kitchen, and a helper’s room. The second floor houses four bedrooms, including a spacious ensuite master bedroom, while the third floor has two bedrooms.
Dr. Lim also highlights the recent renovation of four toilets in the house, and the generous space it provides for his gardening hobby, including a wide variety of plants and animals such as a rambutan tree, coconut tree, grapevine, chicken coop and koi pond.
Living in Braddell Heights for 33 years, Dr. Lim has witnessed the transformation of the neighbourhood, with the opening of the nearby Lorong Chuan MRT station and the renovation of New Tech Park, which added F&B and retail amenities.
According to Realstar’s Goh, the property has generated interest from eight potential buyers, who are attracted to the land size and proximity to reputable schools. The property is within 1km of four primary schools, including St Gabriel’s Primary School, Yangzheng Primary School, CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel, and Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Primary School.
Goh also highlights the potential for redevelopment of the bungalow, given its large land size and its prime location in Braddell Heights. It could potentially be redeveloped into a new house of approximately 10,000 sq ft, with reconstruction costs estimated at $3 million to $5 million.
The bungalow is also an attractive option for those looking to downsize from Good Class Bungalows or larger bungalows in the Bukit Timah area. In recent years, there has been a notable increase in demand for large bungalow sites in the Braddell Heights neighbourhood, with interest coming from homeowners residing in the suburbs who want to move closer to the city.
With its impressive land size, green surroundings, and convenient location, this freehold bungalow on Chiltern Drive presents an excellent opportunity for buyers looking for a family home or a potential redevelopment project. Don’t miss the chance to make it your own.
