Source: Bellewoods
Looking for a resale EC in the North? Bellewoods, an award-winning top-quality executive condominium (EC), has just fulfilled its Minimum Occupancy Period (MOP) this month, offering a remaining lease of 95 years.
Conveniently located, this forest-themed development includes various facilities that combine nature and innovation. Let us take a closer look at the fengshui aspects of the freshly MOP-ed Bellewoods and determine if it could be your ideal fengshui home. Read on!
Bellewoods: Landform fengshui
Located in Woodlands Ave 5, Bellewoods EC sits on the den of the Central Dragon, and belongs to the fengshui formation of “Golden Coin-storing Bowl”. This indicates favorability for wealth and health.
Residents in this area shall be able to hold a stable and secure job, as well as accumulate wealth. With its strategic location, Woodlands is an auspicious district that can absorb and retain qi, making it an ideal place for resting and recuperation. This is especially so for North-facing residential units sitting in the South.
Internal fengshui considerations
Directions play an important role in internal fengshui considerations. Choosing a unit that faces auspicious directions can allow you and your household members to tap on the positive energies.
Designed by acclaimed architect ADDP Architects, Bellewoods EC comprises 561 units of two- to five-bedroom apartments across three 11-storey blocks and nine 12-storey blocks. The facilities in the development are divided into six zones.
As the North and South are the most auspicious directions in the upcoming Period 9 and Period 1 (year 2024 – 2063), it is recommended to select a resale EC unit that faces either of these directions or lies at the border of these directions to tap on the positive energies. The following blocks offer North/South facing units for your consideration:
Blocks with North/South facing units
Block 100, 102, 104, 110, 112 and 114
Although North/South facing houses are auspicious directions in Period 9 and Period 1, please note that these directions are not so favourable in the year 2022. Hence, potential homebuyers planning to shift into the premises this year should select an auspicious date prior to moving in.
Northwest/Southeast are also auspicious directions for Period 9, and could be the next best choice. Potential homebuyers may want to consider the following units as your 2nd choice.
Blocks with Northwest/Southeast facing units
Block 106, 108, 116, 118, 120 and 122
Another interesting aspect of Bellewood resale EC is the flexibility of space in some of its units. Selected three- to five-bedroom units come with the option of “Cospace”, a flexible space in an apartment that allows the owner to configure according to changing lifestyle needs. This flexibility also makes for easy fengshui rectifications/enhancements.
Note: It could be daunting to select a suitable flat, especially if you are a first-time homeowner. If in doubt, you may like to leave it to the professionals. Way Fengshui provides end-to-end fengshui services from selecting an ideal unit to helping you create a harmonious environment in your new home.
Exterior fengshui considerations
As one’s external environment accounts for more than interior considerations, it is important to consider features of the surrounding space when selecting a new home. Surrounded by nature, the well-designed landscaping of Bellewood EC minimises potential conflicting energies (煞气) from nearby buildings and the cross junction between Woodlands Ave 5 and Ave 6.
The trees surrounding the entire development will also help to minimise traffic noises, thereby reducing the potential of Sound Sha (声煞) for units in blocks that are closer to the roads. However, homeowners should be mindful that trees do not block your main entrance or window views as that obstructs the smooth flow of qi and, in certain circumstances, may present threats to the health of household members.
Lower floor units in stacks that are near certain facilities such as the tennis court (i.e. Stacks 9 and 12) and the BBQ Terrace (Stack 13) may encounter higher noise levels. Sound insulation could be an option to reduce noise disturbances from the external environment.
Bellewoods is located near three schools, with Woodlands Ring Secondary School directly across it. As residents may be affected by noises during active school hours, one should consider carefully when selecting a unit.
Extra caution on the road is also recommended, especially when one is near to the school(s), during the peak hours around the start and end of school hours. There is likely to be traffic congestion, which means noise pollution.

Did you know?
Kitchen islands are all the rage, but when it comes to fengshui, you may want to be mindful of the placement of your stove – which is also symbolic of the female homeowner’s health. It is best to avoid building a stove on the kitchen island, as it is exposed to qi (energy) from every angle. From a practical perspective, such exposure could also affect the food you cook, leading to health issues. The placement of the stove is best against a wall for stability.
Also, be mindful of the sink location in the kitchen. If it is directly across your kitchen stove, you may want to consider renovation or implement some changes such as installing an island in between (if space permits). This is because having a stove directly facing the sink depicts a clash of elements between fire (stove) and water (sink) that could affect the health of your household members.
