Location & Surroundings
320A Lavender Street sits in the Kallang area of Singapore, a district that mixes older residential blocks with modern conveniences. Address is simply “Singapore” — the precise street-level location is at latitude 1.3123, longitude 103.8616, placing it within walking distance of several MRT stations. The property is tagged as “new” on the platform, meaning it was recently added to the inventory and may have updated fittings.
Residents can reach two MRT lines within a short walk: Boon Keng (North East Line) and Bendemeer (Downtown Line). A third station, Lavender (East West Line), is also listed within walking distance by early reviewers. The area around Lavender Street has small shops, food courts, gyms, and leisure options — noted by multiple guests. Traffic noise is mentioned as a factor, which is typical for a main road in central Singapore.
The property offers a laundry facility, a common amenity for self-catering stays. There is no mention of parking, pool, or gym on-site; those facilities are likely available in the surrounding public and commercial spaces.
Who Should Consider 320A Lavender Street
Short-term tenants – The minimum lease is three months, which is shorter than many Singapore rentals that require six or twelve months. This flexibility suits students on semester exchange, interns, or professionals on a temporary project.
Those who prioritise transport connectivity – Being within walking distance of three MRT stations gives residents multiple commute options. The North East Line runs through Little India, Chinatown, and HarbourFront; the Downtown Line connects to the Central Business District and Expo; the East West Line links to the city core and Changi Airport. For someone without a car, this is a strong logistical advantage.
Residents who prefer a quieter room but still want city access – Although Lavender Street has traffic noise, the property sits back from the main intersection. Rooms that face away from the road are likely quieter. The area is predominantly residential, so nightlife is limited — a plus for those who need to study or sleep early.
Budget range – The monthly rent runs from 1,100 to 1,450 SGD (indicative — confirm with the operator). For Singapore’s private rental market, this sits in the mid- to lower-mid range for an entire unit or ensuite room in a shared apartment. The city’s from-price across all listings is 207 (indicative — confirm with the operator), which typically refers to a bed in a shared dormitory. 320A Lavender Street offers private accommodation, so the absolute floor is higher.
Who Might Want to Look Elsewhere
Ultra-budget travellers – If your weekly budget is under 250 SGD, you will likely need a hostel dorm or a far-out HDB room. 320A Lavender Street’s cheapest option (ensuite) starts around 1,100 SGD per month, which translates to roughly 254–275 SGD per week, depending on the month’s length. That is above the city’s entry-level price.
Those who require on-site parking – The listing does not mention parking. In central Singapore, car ownership is expensive and public transport is efficient. If you drive, you may need to rent a separate parking space or choose a property that includes it.
Residents sensitive to road noise – One reviewer explicitly notes “need to bear the traffic noise.” If you are a light sleeper or need absolute quiet for studying, a unit at the back of the building or on a higher floor may help, but you cannot guarantee a silent environment. A property on a quieter side street might be preferable.
People who need a gym, pool, or concierge – The property tags only “laundry_facility.” It does not advertise a fitness centre, swimming pool, or 24-hour security desk. If those are essential, look at a larger development with a condo-style facilities.
What Residents Actually Say
Two Google reviews were available at the time of writing (3 total, all 5-star). The reviews are quoted verbatim below.
“Prime location walkable to 3 MRT stations. Filled with amenities nearby such as food, gym, recreation and leisure activities. Great place to stay!” — Gath Tulip, 5/5
“Good location, in between 2 MRT - Boon Keng and Bendemeer. Need to bear the traffic noise.” — Clins, 5/5
Both residents highlight the convenient location. The first reviewer mentions three MRT stations (likely including Lavender on the East West Line). The second reviewer specifically names Boon Keng and Bendemeer and acknowledges traffic noise. Neither review mentions the interior condition, cleanliness, or management responsiveness. The sample size is small (3 ratings), so the average rating of 5.0 should be interpreted with caution — early reviews tend to be from satisfied tenants.
Price Positioning & Room Types
320A Lavender Street offers three unit types:
- Ensuite – a private room with attached bathroom, typically in a shared apartment.
- 1b – a one-bedroom apartment, entirely self-contained.
- Apartment – likely a multi-bedroom unit with shared living space (the exact layout varies).
All prices are monthly and range from 1,100 to 1,450 SGD (indicative — confirm with the operator). Compared to the Singapore city from-price of 207 (indicative — confirm with the operator), which is most likely a dormitory bed per week, the private rooms here cost about 4–7 times more per month. This is typical: a private room in a central location with good transport links commands a premium over the cheapest hostel option.
The property is listed as “new” — this could mean it was recently renovated or newly added to the platform. New listings sometimes offer introductory pricing or more flexible terms, but no special offer is mentioned in the data.
Booking Timing & Lease Terms
The minimum lease is 3 months, and the available-from date is marked as null, which generally means immediate availability as of the data snapshot. For a move-in in mid-2026, inquire as early as possible. August and September are peak intake months for Singapore’s universities, and central properties near MRT stations get booked quickly.
Because the property is new to the platform, there may be less historical data on how far in advance rooms fill up. A good rule of thumb: start checking availability 2–3 months before your desired move-in date, and confirm the exact lease start date with the operator.
No deposit amount is listed in the source data — you will need to confirm this directly.
FAQ
Is 320A Lavender Street close to universities?
The property does not publish a specific distance to any institution, but Singapore’s major university campuses (such as those in the Clementi area and along the North East Line) can be reached by MRT with one transfer in about 30–40 minutes. The Lavender area is more central than the western campus belt, so travel time to universities like the National University of Singapore or Nanyang Technological University is moderate. For city-based institutions such as Singapore Management University, the commute is shorter — roughly 15–20 minutes by train.
What utilities are included in the rent?
The source data does not specify whether utilities (electricity, water, internet, gas) are included. This is common for independent listings on student-housing platforms. You must confirm with the operator at the time of booking. Singapore’s electricity and water tariffs are moderate; a typical monthly utilities cost for a single person in a shared apartment is 50–100 SGD, but this varies by usage and season.
Can I terminate the lease early?
The lease terms are not detailed in the data beyond the 3-month minimum. Early termination penalties are not stated. Ask the operator about notice periods, penalties, and whether you can sublet the room if you need to leave early. Some operators allow early exit with a one-month penalty; others require you to find a replacement tenant.
Sources & data date: All figures, ratings, and reviews are from the platform database as of July 2026. Prices are indicative and subject to change — always confirm with the operator before committing.
