Practical Notes for Buyers & Renters
Alessandrea is attractive to buyers who prioritise freehold tenure, larger apartment floorplates, and a central location close to the Tiong Bahru / Redhill precincts. Because public transaction and rental activity does exist, prospective buyers and tenants can obtain relatively recent comparables — however, condition, floor level and renovation standard materially affect price. For exact unit sizes, floor plans and up-to-date asking prices, check current listings or request precise strata floor-area data from the agent. 2
Conclusion
In summary, Alessandrea is a freehold, centrally-located 19-storey condominium completed in 2004 with 105 units. Its larger apartment layouts, low-density profile and proximity to Tiong Bahru/Redhill MRT stations make it a sought-after choice for owner-occupiers and investors seeking freehold stock in a mature neighbourhood. Recent sales and rentals in 2024–2025 demonstrate robust market interest and relatively high psf levels for the development. 4
