Why almost a third of the development is one single unit type

2 Bedroom Deluxe + Study (B3S/B4S and their -P/-T variants) accounts for 138 of SORA’s 440 units, 31% of the entire development, and comfortably the largest single bedroom-type category. The next largest is 3 Bedroom Premium + Study at 84 units (19%), meaning these two “+Study” categories alone make up just over half of SORA’s unit count, at 222 units combined. By contrast, the two largest unit types by bedroom count (4 Bedroom and 5 Bedroom Luxury) total just 18 units each, the smallest categories by unit count in the development.

The practical read: SORA’s unit mix skews heavily toward smaller, study-equipped homes rather than larger family-sized units, with the 4- and 5 Bedroom Luxury types positioned as a comparatively rare, low-volume top tier, each appearing in only a single stack across the entire 4-block, 440-unit development.

Why some stacks have no ground-floor unit at all

SORA’s 28 stacks don’t all run the same floor range. Four stacks (the two A1S stacks in Block 76 and Block 78, and the two B2 stacks flanking them) skip the bottom one or two floors entirely, with no PES (Private Enclosed Space) ground-floor variant at all; A1S starts at floor 3, B2 starts at floor 2. Three further stacks (the single E1 stack, the single D1 stack, and both B4S stacks) top out a floor or two below their neighbours, with no top-floor “-T” unit at the building’s actual roofline. The net effect is that SORA’s stacking doesn’t follow a simple “floors 1-4 base type, floor 5 penthouse” pattern, it varies stack by stack, and the unit count for any given stack has to be read off the actual schematic chart rather than assumed.

Location & Connectivity

“Lakeside MRT is 1.7km away: what does that actually mean day to day?”

SORA sits on Yuan Ching Road with a 300-metre frontage directly onto Jurong Lake Gardens. The nearest station, Lakeside on the East-West Line, is about 1.7km away, roughly three minutes by car rather than a walk, and the developer is running a free shuttle to Lakeside and Jurong East MRT, hourly, for two years or until the first AGM, whichever comes first. Two lines are being added to the district: the Jurong Region Line, whose Jurong East station URA plans to open in 2028, and the Cross Island Line, whose CR19 station sits in the heart of the Jurong Lake District precinct and is planned for 2032. Schools, malls and the full connectivity picture are on the SORA Location Highlights page.

Architecture & Design

Four blocks, two heights, and a roofline shaped like the lake it faces

SORA comprises four blocks (two towers of 20 storeys (Blocks 76 and 78) and two of 12 storeys (Blocks 72 and 74)) sitting on a single-level basement carpark. The architectural brief draws directly on the adjacent Jurong Lake Gardens: horizontal sun-shading ledges that curve along each storey are described by the architect as echoing the rhythmic flow of water, while a terraced, layered roof garden across each block’s crown is positioned to mirror the park’s reflection back from the rooftop.

Block heights & separation
Block(s)StoreysHeight (SHD)
76, 782076.2m
72, 741251m
How far apart the four blocks actually sit

The gap between SORA’s blocks varies considerably depending on which pair you’re looking at. Block 78 and Block 76 sit 12 metres apart, Block 74 and Block 72 sit 10 metres apart, but the gap between Block 76 and Block 74, the development’s two tallest and shortest towers sitting side by side, opens up to 40 metres. For anyone comparing facing units across the site, that 40-metre gap is the one that meaningfully changes the privacy and outlook calculation versus the tighter 10 to 12 metre separations elsewhere.

76% of units face the gardens, what that means for the rest

Approximately 76% of SORA’s 440 units face Jurong Lake Gardens, the development’s primary marketed outlook. The remaining roughly 24% (just over 100 units) face other directions, most likely toward the neighbouring LakeGarden Residences (roughly 40m away) or the HDB blocks along Yuan Ching Road (roughly 60m away). Buyers prioritising the garden view should confirm a specific stack’s facing directly, since just under a quarter of the development sits outside that headline figure.

Unit Types & Floor Plans

12 named layouts across 8 price bands: what each one actually gives you

SORA offers 12 distinct unit types (34 counting their -P and -T floor variants individually) across both tower heights, ranging from a 538 sqft 1 Bedroom + Study to a 1,938 sqft 5 Bedroom Luxury penthouse. Most types come in three forms: the base type, a “-P” version with a Private Enclosed Space (PES) instead of a balcony for ground-floor units, and a “-T” top-floor version with a strata void and higher ceiling, though as the next section covers, a few types break this pattern and skip the PES or top-floor form entirely.

1 Bedroom + Study (Type A1S)

TypeBedsBathsSizeUnitsNotes
A1S1 + Study1538 sqft34Smallest unit type in the development; no PES variant, the only type with no ground-floor unit
A1S-T1 + Study1689 sqft2Includes 14 sqm strata void
Why A1S has no ground-floor or PES unit

A1S is the only unit type at SORA with no -P (PES) variant at all. Both A1S stacks (one in Block 76, one in Block 78) start at the 3rd storey rather than the 1st, running straight through to a top-floor “-T” unit with no ground-floor or 2nd-storey unit beneath them. The practical effect is that nobody buying an A1S gets a private enclosed space; every A1S unit comes with a standard balcony instead, regardless of floor.

At just 538 sqft, A1S is also the only unit type with a single bathroom, every other type at SORA, including the 2 Bedroom range, has at least two.

2 Bedroom Deluxe (Types B1, B2)

TypeBedsBathsSizeUnitsNotes
B122646 sqft20Smaller of the two non-Study 2 Bedroom types
B1-P22646 sqft2PES variant, same size as B1

B222667 sqft34Most common non-Study 2 Bedroom type; no PES variant, like A1S
B2-T22807 sqft2Includes 13 sqm strata void; same size as B1-T despite the base difference
B2 is the other type with no ground-floor unit

Like A1S, both B2 stacks start at the 2nd storey rather than the 1st; there’s no B2-P variant anywhere in the development. B1, by contrast, runs the full floor range with a PES unit at the 1st storey in both its stacks. Buyers specifically wanting a PES rather than a balcony in the 2 Bedroom Deluxe range should look at B1, not B2.

2 Bedroom Deluxe + Study (Types B3S, B4S)

TypeBedsBathsSizeUnitsNotes
B3S2 + Study2732 sqft88Single largest unit type by count in the entire development; showflat unit type

B4S2 + Study2732 sqft34Similar size and layout as B3S, different stacks
B4S-P2 + Study2732 sqft2PES variant
B4S-T2 + Study2915 sqft2Includes 17 sqm strata void; both B4S stacks stop one floor below the building’s top storey, so this unit doesn’t sit at the actual roofline
One in three units at SORA is this exact configuration

B3S and B4S together account for 138 of SORA’s 440 units, 31% of the entire development. The Study sits as a dedicated space within the Master Bedroom in both types, with no fixture-count difference between B3S and B4S beyond their stack location; the floor plans are otherwise very similar. This is the unit type the showflat is built around, and the one a large share of buyers will end up comparing against.

C2-P321,098 sqft4PES variant
C2-T321,313 sqft4Includes 20 sqm strata void
C1 vs C2 isn’t just a size jump, the rooms are genuinely different

At first glance C1 (936 sqft) and C2 (1,098 sqft) look like the same 3 Bedroom layout at two sizes. The floor plans say otherwise. C1 includes a small “Flexi” space tucked beside the kitchen (useful as a study nook or storage) and stops there: no Household Shelter, no Yard, no separate WC. C2 drops the Flexi entirely and in its place adds a Household Shelter, a Yard, and a standalone WC alongside the existing Master Bath and Bath 2. Both types keep the same 2-bathroom count, so the “WC” in C2 is a third fixture beyond the two full baths, not a third bathroom.

C3S, C4S, and C5S (the +Study variants below) all carry forward C2’s Household Shelter/Yard/WC configuration with a Study added, rather than C1’s Flexi nook, meaning the Flexi room is unique to C1 alone among SORA’s nine 3 Bedroom types.

3 Bedroom Premium + Study (Types C3S, C4S, C5S)

TypeBedsBathsSizeUnitsNotes

C5S-P3 + Study21,195 sqft2PES variant
C5S-T3 + Study21,410 sqft2Includes 20 sqm strata void
Same fixtures, three different Study placements

C3S, C4S, and C5S all carry an identical fixture set (Master Bath, Bath 2, Household Shelter, Yard, and a separate WC, the same configuration C2 establishes) with a Study added on top. Where they differ is purely in layout: C3S and C4S tuck the Study outside the Master Bedroom, while C5S (the type used for the showflat) places its Study beside the Living area instead. C3S/CS4 may appeal to owners who prefer a study to be near to their Master Bedroom to work late at night, while CS5 might appeal to owners who might like to convert the study into a helper’s room, or even consider opening up the space to enlarge the living room area.

4 Bedroom Luxury (Type D1)

TypeBedsBathsSizeUnitsNotes
D142 + WC1,528 sqft16Private lift + private lift lobby; Wet/Dry Kitchen split; Walk-in Wardrobe; single stack across the entire development
D1-P42 + WC1,528 sqft1PES variant; the only ground-floor unit in this stack
D1-T42 + WC1,787 sqft1Includes 24 sqm strata void
4 bedrooms, but only 2 of them are en-suite

D1 is SORA’s only 4 Bedroom type, and it comes with a private lift opening directly into its own lift lobby, a feature shared only with the 5 Bedroom E1 below. The floor plan pairs a Master Bedroom (with its own Master Bath and a separate Walk-in Wardrobe) with a Junior Master Bedroom that gets its own Junior Bath. Bedroom 2 and Bedroom 3, however, share a single Bath 2 between them, so despite the 4 bedroom label, only the Master and Junior Master suites are actually en-suite. A separate WC sits alongside the Household Shelter, bringing the fixture count to 2 en-suite baths plus Bath 2 plus a WC.

D1 occupies a single stack in Block 78, running from the 2nd storey (D1-P) to the 17th storey (D1) up to D1-T at the 18th, the stack stops two floors short of the building’s 20-storey top, so there’s no D1 unit at SORA’s actual roofline.

5 Bedroom Luxury (Type E1)

TypeBedsBathsSizeUnitsNotes
E152 + WC1,679 sqft16Private lift + private lift lobby; largest non-T/PH unit count cap; showflat unit type
E1-P52 + WC1,679 sqft1PES variant; the only ground-floor unit in this stack
E1-T52 + WC1,938 sqft1Includes 24 sqm strata void; SORA’s largest unit type by floor area
5 bedrooms, same 2-en-suite pattern as D1

E1 extends D1’s layout with a fourth bedroom and the same Junior Master configuration, but the bathroom count remains the same. Like D1, only the Master Bedroom and Junior Master Bedroom get their own en-suite bath; Bedroom 2, Bedroom 3, and Bedroom 4 all share a single Bath 2 between the three of them. A separate 1 sqm WC sits near the Yard, bringing the total to 2 en-suite baths plus the Bath 2 plus a WC, the same fixture pattern as D1, just spread across one more bedroom.

E1 occupies SORA’s single 5 Bedroom stack in Block 76, running from the 2nd storey (E1-P) through to the 17th (E1), with E1-T capping the stack at the 18th storey, again, two floors short of the building’s full 20-storey height. At 1,938 sqft including a 24 sqm strata void, E1-T is the single largest unit at SORA.

Fittings, Appliances & Smart Home

Electrolux throughout, and the appliance list varies by unit type

Kitchen appliances across SORA carry a single brand, Electrolux, with bathroom fittings from Duravit, Geberit and Grohe and a rain shower to every master bath. What changes between unit types is not the brand but the appliance list, and the split does not fall on bedroom count. Town gas reaches the 3 Bedroom Premium and above, so those types take a gas hob while everything from the 1 Bedroom + Study through the 3 Bedroom Deluxe takes induction. The two Luxury bands add an integrated refrigerator, a built-in microwave oven and a separate washer and dryer. The table below is the full per-type matrix; why the boundary falls where it does is set out on the SORA Project Info page.

Floor finishes

Living and dining areas, bathrooms, kitchens, and balconies or PES areas are finished in tiles with skirting across every unit type at SORA, with vinyl flooring in all bedrooms. The Flexi room in C1 gets tiles with skirting, matching the kitchen and living areas; C2 and the +Study types get tiles with skirting in their WC/Yard/Household Shelter zones as well.

Smart home features

Every unit includes the same six smart-home features: Smart Home Gateway, Smart Digital Lockset with PIN, biometric or RFID access, Smart Invite, Smart Booking, Smart Audio Video Telephony and Smart Air Con Controls. This is one specification that genuinely is uniform across all 12 layouts.

Facilities

“How many facilities are there, and what are they?”

SORA has 71 individually numbered facilities across nine named landscape zones, and they sit on three physically separate levels rather than two, because the four blocks are not the same height. The first storey carries 47 across five zones: Tranquility Garden, Rejuvenation Corridor, The Moonlight Atrium, Zen Court and Connection Cove, anchored by the 50m Serenity Pool, the 29m Family Pool, the Kid’s Pool, a tennis court and a gymnasium. The remaining 24 sit on the roofs, and every block has a rooftop zone of its own: Lagoon Observatory and Sunrise Dome at 51m, Moonrise Gazebo and Lakescape Lookout at 76.2m. Residents may use all four. The zone-by-zone list is on the SORA Project Info page.

Lift configuration varies sharply by block

Block 76 and Block 78 each run 2 common lifts plus 1 private lift, the private lift serves only the D1 and E1 stacks in those blocks, opening directly into a private lift lobby. Block 72 and Block 74 run 2 common lifts only, with no private lift option, since neither block contains a D1 or E1 unit. Common lifts in all four blocks are positioned side by side rather than facing each other, and every lift lobby is air-conditioned.

Green Mark status and sustainability provisions

SORA holds a Green Mark Gold+ rating. Carpark lots are wired for future EV conversion beyond the 4 already-active charging lots, and rubbish disposal runs via a pneumatic chute system, with 2 chutes per block (one of which is a dedicated recycling chute).

Household Shelters, who has one, and who doesn’t

Not every unit type at SORA includes a Household Shelter. HS and town gas are both not present in Type A, Type B, and the C1 unit type specifically, meaning A1S, B1, B2, B3S, B4S, and C1 all cook on an induction hob with no HS. C2 and every 3 Bedroom+Study type above it (C3S, C4S, C5S), along with D1 and E1, all include a Household Shelter and a gas hob instead.

The Developer

Who is behind Lakeside Residential Pte. Ltd.?

SORA is developed by Lakeside Residential Pte. Ltd., a joint venture of CEL Development, SingHaiyi Group and KSH Holdings, holding 40%, 30% and 30% of the participating interest. Only KSH Holdings remains listed on the SGX Mainboard; SingHaiyi was privatised in January 2022 and CEL’s parent, Chip Eng Seng Corporation, was delisted in April 2023, and CEL and SingHaiyi have since merged into one group. The site is the former Park View Mansions, a 160-unit development the joint venture bought by collective sale for $260 million in July 2022, at roughly $1,023 per square foot per plot ratio. Company profiles and BCA CONQUAS records are on the SORA Developer page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Detailed answers to the questions buyers ask most often

What do the 4 Bedroom and 5 Bedroom Luxury have that no other unit type does?

D1 and E1 are the only two types with a private lift opening into a private lobby, and the only two with a junior master bedroom, a walk-in wardrobe and a dry kitchen with an island top alongside the wet kitchen. They also take the fullest appliance set: a gas hob with hood, an integrated refrigerator, a built-in microwave oven and a separate washer and dryer, where every other type gets a washer-cum-dryer. Three full bathrooms plus a separate WC, against two elsewhere. Each occupies a single stack in the whole development, D1 in stack 25 of Block 78 and E1 in stack 16 of Block 76.

Which unit types have a ground-floor PES, and what does it give you?

Ten of the 12 layouts have a ground-floor variant on level 1, marked with a -P suffix: B1, B3S, B4S, C1, C2, C3S, C4S, C5S, D1 and E1. The PES replaces the balcony at the same total floor area, so you get enclosed outdoor space at ground level instead of an elevated one, with direct access to the first-storey landscape zones. A1S and B2 are the two without one, because their stacks (13, 20, 21 and 28) begin at level 3.

What is the actual difference between the 3 Bedroom Deluxe (C1) and the 3 Bedroom Premium (C2)?

More than the 87 sqm to 102 sqm size step. C2 is the point where town gas begins, so it takes a gas hob where C1 takes induction, and C2 gains a household shelter, a separate WC and a yard that C1 does not have. C1 uses that floor area differently, carrying a flexi nook beside the kitchen and a store, which suits a home office or a fourth sleeping space. Both have three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and both carry a hallway between the entrance and the bedrooms.

Which units get the 4.40m double-volume ceiling?

Every top-floor unit, marked with a -T suffix, in all eight bands. The living and dining area rises to 4.40m against 2.90m elsewhere, produced by a void over that space, which is why a -T unit’s stated area is larger than its base type for the same footprint. In the 12-storey blocks these sit at level 10, 11 or 12 depending on the stack, and in the 20-storey blocks at level 18, 19 or 20. Ceiling heights are measured floor to underside of slab or false ceiling, whichever is lower.

What do the -P and -T suffixes after a unit type mean?

-P is the ground-floor variant, on level 1, with a private enclosed space in place of the balcony at the same floor area. -T is the top-floor variant on each stack’s highest level, which adds the void and the 4.40m living and dining ceiling. So C2, C2-P and C2-T are the same 3 Bedroom Premium layout in three positions: level 1, the typical floors, and the top. The 12 named layouts expand to 34 unit types once both variants are counted.

Can the wall between Bedroom 2 and Bedroom 3 in the C5S be opened up?

Yes, subject to the project engineer’s approval, and it is one of the more useful conversions in the development for a family wanting one large room instead of two. There is a beam running near the window on that wall, so it can be opened up but not removed in its entirety. Worth walking in person: C5S is one of the three types built at the showflat. Non-load-bearing walls are shown unshaded on the floor plans; shaded walls and household shelter walls are structural.

Is an approved balcony screen available, and what does it cost?

Yes. The developer offers an approved screen design and will pre-install it at purchase, which is the practical route since balconies may only be enclosed using that design. Pricing is $8,000 for the 1 Bedroom + Study, $11,000 for the 2 Bedroom types, $12,000 for the 3 Bedroom types and $16,000 for the 4 Bedroom Luxury and 5 Bedroom Luxury. It is ordered at the point of purchase rather than retrofitted later, so it belongs in the budget alongside the legal fees.
