Upper Thomson MRT station is sheltered all the way from the side gate of Upper Thomson Hills Residences and the condo is scheduled for completion in December 2K26. “The good response is due to our convenient location,” says Betsy Chng, head of sales and marketing at Hong Leong Holdings. “Our buyers enjoy the surrounding nature parks with nearby MRT, yet still stay close to their families who live in the neighbouring mature townships like Upper Thomson, Ang Mo Kio, Bishan and Yishun.”

According to Chng, the functional layouts of the units and the facilities offered were also a draw.
