Bukit Timah
The nearby area houses many bungalows, traditionally expensive in land-scarce Singapore, as well as high rise condominiums. Many expatriates and well heeled Singaporeans tend to stay in this region.  The rise in land prices has led to development of new condominiums.  For example, the Copthorne Orchid Hotel in Dunearn Road is being redeveloped into condominiums for sale.
