Keppel Land's fifth home project at Keppel Bay

Who is developing The Island Residence, and how many homes?

Keppel Bay Pte Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Keppel Land, is developing The Island Residence with about 84 homes. It is the only residential project planned on Keppel Island, and the smallest condominium in a precinct where Keppel Land has already completed four projects with more than 2,800 homes between them.

About Keppel Island

Why is Keppel Island such a rare address?

Keppel Island is a privately owned island of about 5 hectares in Keppel Bay, and The Island Residence is the only residential project planned on it. Homes on an island like this are rare in Singapore, and this one will hold about 84.

The island is in the northern part of Keppel Bay, between the mainland and Sentosa. It was known as Pulau Hantu until 1983 and was part of Keppel Shipyard until 2000. When the shipyard moved out, Keppel Land turned the surrounding waterfront into the Keppel Bay precinct, and in 2008 the island was linked to the mainland by the Keppel Bay Bridge. Today it holds the Marina at Keppel Bay, with yacht berths and waterfront restaurants.

The Island Residence is one of the last sites that Keppel held in the precinct after the conversion. It is a 99-year leasehold development. The lease start date will be confirmed at launch.

Large homes only

Every home at The Island Residence is four bedrooms or larger: four-bedroom, four-bedroom flexi, five-bedroom and penthouse units. There are no one-, two- or three-bedroom types. That makes it a very different product from The Reef at King's Dock nearby, which offered smaller units from under $1 million. Unit sizes and the number of each type will be confirmed with the price list.

Location and connectivity

Where is The Island Residence, and how close is the MRT?

The Island Residence is on Keppel Island, reached from Keppel Bay Vista across the 250 m Keppel Bay Bridge. HarbourFront (NE1/CC29) is the practical nearest MRT station, about 1.1 km away in a straight line. The bridge is the island's only land link, so walking routes are longer than the straight-line figures.

By car, the Ayer Rajah Expressway and West Coast Highway run just north of the precinct, and the Central Business District is about 8 to 10 minutes' drive away according to developer materials. For a household that drives, the island is well placed. For one that plans to walk to a train every day, walk the route to HarbourFront before deciding.

What changed with the Circle Line in 2026?

Circle Line Stage 6 opened on 12 July 2026, with new stations including Keppel (CC30). It closes the loop, so a train from HarbourFront now runs to Marina Bay without a change. For residents of The Island Residence, the benefit comes through HarbourFront: the precinct's main station now reaches the CBD on two lines.

Keppel MRT is on Keppel Road, about 2.5 km away. Its value to the island is as part of a better-connected precinct rather than as a station residents would walk to.

  • Ayer Rajah ExpresswayThe main route west to Jurong and east into the CBD.
  • West Coast HighwayRuns along the northern edge of the Keppel Bay precinct.
  • Marina Coastal ExpresswayTowards Marina Bay and the East Coast, about 10 to 12 minutes to Marina Bay Financial Centre.

Neighbourhood plans

What is being built around Keppel Bay?

Four dated projects surround The Island Residence: the completed Circle Line loop, the HarbourFront Centre redevelopment, the new Berlayar Estate on the former Keppel Club site and the Telok Blangah Road GLS condominium. Behind them is the longer Greater Southern Waterfront plan.

Greater Southern Waterfront20 to 30 year programmeAbout 1,000 ha and 30 km of coastline freed up as port operations move to Tuas

The Island Residence is not inside the Berlayar Estate itself. It is in the established Keppel Bay enclave next door, so it gains new offices, shops and parkland nearby without being in the middle of the estate's building works. HarbourFront Centre's new office floors would bring a large number of office workers close to the island from 2031. The Greater Southern Waterfront is a multi-decade plan, and buyers should treat it as long-term context rather than a near-term driver.

Price guide

How much will The Island Residence cost?

The developer will release official prices at launch. The land belongs to Keppel Land rather than coming from a Government Land Sales tender, so there is no public land price to work from. The clearest public guide is what Keppel Bay's existing condominiums trade at today.

Those resale prices run from about $1,909 psf at Caribbean, the oldest, to $3,230 psf at the top of The Reef at King's Dock, the newest. A new launch usually prices above older resale homes nearby, and The Island Residence will be the newest and smallest project in the precinct. Because every unit is four bedrooms or larger, total prices will be high even at a moderate psf.

Worked example

How much stamp duty is payable on a $5 million home?

Buyer's Stamp Duty on a $5,000,000 purchase is $239,600, worked out band by band below. A Singapore Citizen buying a first home pays no ABSD on top. A Permanent Resident buying a first home adds 5% ABSD ($250,000), and a foreign buyer adds 60% ($3,000,000). The $5 million figure is an example, not a price for The Island Residence.

Investment view

Is The Island Residence a good investment?

The Island Residence is better suited to a buyer who wants a scarce waterfront address and plans a long hold than to one looking for rental yield. It has three advantages: scarcity, a proven developer and an improving precinct. Buyers should also weigh the large-format unit mix, a smaller resale pool and the fact that prices are not yet known.

What Keppel Bay's record shows about views

Sea-facing homes in this precinct have a documented record of selling for more than other units, which is the most relevant evidence for how The Island Residence's own units may differ in price.

Historical prices for other Keppel Bay projects, shown to illustrate the precinct's view premium. They are not a forecast for The Island Residence. Past performance does not indicate future results.

Where it stands out

Supply is fixed at about 84 homes on an island that has no room for a second project, and a buyer who wants a new home on Keppel Island has no other option. Keppel Land has completed all four earlier Keppel Bay condominiums, and each still has an active resale and rental market. The Circle Line loop is already running, and the new HarbourFront Centre, with 26 office floors, is due in 2031. Demand in the precinct has been strong before: The Reef at King's Dock sold more than 90% of released units on its launch weekend in January 2021.

What to keep in mind

The Reef's quick sale relied on its one- to three-bedroom units, which The Island Residence does not offer, so its resale buyers will come from a smaller, higher-budget pool. With about 84 homes, resale transactions will be infrequent. Foreign buyers pay 60% ABSD, and landlords pay non-owner-occupier property tax of 12% to 36% of annual value (IRAS). Large homes also tend to earn a lower rental yield than compact ones.

Comparison

The Island Residence vs Telok Blangah Road GLS

The Island Residence and the Telok Blangah Road GLS site are the two new private projects in this part of District 4, and they suit different buyers. The Island Residence offers about 84 large homes on a private island. Telok Blangah Road offers about 745 homes a short walk from an MRT station.

Living here

What is it like to live on Keppel Island?

The Island Residence pairs a quiet island setting with Singapore's southern waterfront on the doorstep: a marina on the island, VivoCity and Sentosa across the bay, and the Southern Ridges behind.

On the island

The Marina at Keppel Bay, with yacht berths and waterfront restaurants, already operates on Keppel Island. Residents cross the Keppel Bay Bridge to reach the mainland.

Shopping

VivoCity, one of Singapore's largest malls, is next to HarbourFront MRT. HarbourFront Centre closes in the second half of 2026 and returns with new retail in 2031.

Parks and trails

Mount Faber Park and the 10 km Southern Ridges trail to Telok Blangah Hill, HortPark and Kent Ridge, plus Labrador Nature Reserve and the Berlayar Creek boardwalk to the west.

Leisure

Sentosa's beaches, Resorts World Sentosa and the Singapore Cable Car are a short drive away via Sentosa Gateway.

Primary schools

Schools in the Telok Blangah area include Blangah Rise Primary School and Radin Mas Primary School. Once the development has a postal address, check its 1 km and 2 km bands on MOE SchoolFinder.

Work

Mapletree Business City and the HarbourFront office cluster are a short drive away, and the CBD is about 10 minutes by car.

Things to check at the preview

Ask which units face the open sea and which face the marina, the bridge or the mainland, because the precinct's record shows views affect value. The island's only land link is the Keppel Bay Bridge, so walk the route to HarbourFront at the time you would normally commute. HarbourFront Centre's redevelopment (2026 to 2031) and the Berlayar Estate build-out will bring construction activity nearby for several years. Ferries and ships use Keppel Bay, which is part of the view from some angles.

FAQ

The Island Residence FAQ

What is The Island Residence?

The Island Residence is an upcoming condominium on Keppel Island in Keppel Bay, District 4, Singapore. Keppel Land is developing about 84 homes on a 99-year lease, in four-bedroom, four-bedroom flexi, five-bedroom and penthouse formats. It is the only residential project planned on the privately owned island, which is linked to the mainland by the Keppel Bay Bridge.

When is The Island Residence preview?

The Island Residence preview opens on Saturday 5 December 2026. Showflat visits run from 5 to 15 December 2026, by appointment only, with the first slots at 10am. The completion and TOP dates have not been announced.

Yes, by appointment. Visits run daily from Saturday 5 December to Tuesday 15 December 2026. Choose a date and time in the form on this page, and the sales team will confirm your slot and send you the showflat details.

Where is The Island Residence located?

The Island Residence is on Keppel Island, reached from Keppel Bay Vista via the 250 m Keppel Bay Bridge, in District 4 (HarbourFront and Telok Blangah), part of the Rest of Central Region. The island is in Keppel Bay between the mainland and Sentosa, next to the Marina at Keppel Bay and near VivoCity.

Who is the developer of The Island Residence?

The Island Residence is being developed by Keppel Bay Pte Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Keppel Land, part of Keppel. Keppel Land has built every earlier condominium in the Keppel Bay precinct: Caribbean at Keppel Bay (2004), Reflections at Keppel Bay (2011), Corals at Keppel Bay (2016) and The Reef at King's Dock (2025, with Mapletree).

How many units does The Island Residence have?

The Island Residence will have about 84 homes, with some sources citing up to 86. There are no one-, two- or three-bedroom units. The planned types are four-bedroom, four-bedroom flexi, five-bedroom and penthouse. Unit sizes and the number of each type will be confirmed when the developer releases the price list and floor plans.

How much will The Island Residence cost per square foot?

The developer will release official prices at launch. The land is Keppel Land's own rather than a government tender site, so there is no public land price to estimate from. Nearby Keppel Bay resale prices range from about $1,909 psf at Caribbean to $3,230 psf at The Reef at King's Dock (EdgeProp, PropertyGuru, 2026).

How much stamp duty would I pay on a $5 million home at The Island Residence?

On a $5 million home, Buyer's Stamp Duty is $239,600 at the rates in force since 15 February 2023. A Singapore Citizen buying a first home pays no Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty on top. A Permanent Resident buying a first home pays 5% ABSD, which is $250,000. The $5 million figure is an example only, not a price.

How does booking a unit at The Island Residence work?

A buyer books a unit by paying a booking fee, usually 5% of the price, and receives an Option to Purchase. The developer sends the Sale and Purchase agreement within 2 weeks, and the buyer has 3 weeks from receiving it to sign. Later payments follow the progressive payment schedule in the agreement.

What is the tenure of The Island Residence?

The Island Residence is a 99-year leasehold development. The lease start date has not been released yet, so the number of years left at completion cannot be calculated. Reflections at Keppel Bay, another Keppel Land project in the precinct, is also a 99-year leasehold.

What is the nearest MRT station to The Island Residence?

The practical nearest station for The Island Residence is HarbourFront (NE1/CC29), a North East Line and Circle Line interchange about 1.1 km away in a straight line. Telok Blangah (CC28) is about 0.8 km away in a straight line, but the only land link is the Keppel Bay Bridge, so walking routes to both are longer.

Is The Island Residence a good investment?

The Island Residence suits buyers who value a scarce address and a long hold more than rental yield. It has three advantages: the island setting, about 84 homes in total, and a developer with four completed projects in the precinct. Buyers should also weigh the large-format unit mix, which narrows the resale pool, and the fact that prices are not yet known.

Is it The Island Residence or The Island Residences?

The project name is The Island Residence, singular. Some websites use The Island Residences, with an s, for the same development on Keppel Island. It is a separate project from Reflections at Keppel Bay, Corals at Keppel Bay and Caribbean at Keppel Bay, which are older Keppel Land condominiums on the mainland side of the bay.
