Intro: ALBA brings a bold, petal-shaped architectural identity to Cairnhill Rise in the Newton planning area, offering large-format residences just a short distance from the Orchard Road shopping belt 🏙️.
Good to know: Features a distinct 18-storey petal-shaped design with only 50 freehold units 🏢; Located within 1km of Anglo-Chinese School (Junior) 🏫; Includes rare penthouse and townhouse configurations reaching up to 8,396 sqft 🏡.
Practical note: While the design is striking, the project consists exclusively of large units starting from over 1,900 sqft, making it better suited for families or those seeking expansive space rather than compact city living.
