Published: 19 Aug 2025

Launched in HDB’s July 2025 Build-To-Order (BTO) exercise, Alexandra Vista is one of the two Prime housing projects offered in Bukit Merah. This upcoming BTO estate delivers convenience at its doorstep with a 2-storey commercial block housing a supermarket, an eating house, shops, and preschool! Sounds great, right?

Nevertheless, Alexandra Vista is surrounded by several places of worship. Would that affect home fengshui? Read on for our in-depth fengshui review to find out!

Landform Fengshui: Alexandra Vista in Bukit Merah

In Singapore, the Five Dragon Landform Fengshui harnesses “hidden dragons”, which are man-made structures that channel energy flows. From the lens of fengshui, roads act as “dragon veins,” skyscrapers as “mountain dragons” offering stability, and waterways serve as wealth-attracting “water dragons.”

The five auspicious dragons, namely Eastern, Western, Southern, Northern, and Central, along with the Singapore and Kallang Rivers, converge to drive the city’s growth and prosperity, with each dragon influencing a region’s success.

Bounded by Tanglin Road and Jervois Lane, Alexandra Vista is located in the precinct of Bukit Merah. This July 2025 BTO project sits near the head of the Western Dragon, where fresh qi tends to be concentrated. While this spells potential for career breakthroughs or visionary pursuits, energy can be intense near a Dragon’s head. Hence, such areas are best suited for those with resilient or ambitious personalities.

Fengshui Formation: Alexandra Vista in Bukit Merah

Based on landform formation, Alexandra Vista is part of the “Land of Buffaloes” formation, housing two buffaloes that have fled from Tiong Bahru due to the nearby formation “Combination of Four Animals”. One is located at Telok Blangah Hill Park and the other at Bukit Merah Central.

Buffaloes are known for their diligence and this quality is reflected in the residents staying in these areas. In the face of pressure, they would perform better and display strong determination.

Amidst slowing global growth, persistent inflation, and geopolitical uncertainties, life can seem like a struggle but let’s keep the spirit of the buffaloes in mind! While striving hard, always keep your health in mind. Here are some easy fengshui tips, especially for female homeowners to improve health luck.

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.

A mature estate in Singapore offers plenty of amenities, facilities, and services to its residents. Residents of Alexandra Vista will enjoy these conveniences (literally) at their doorstep.

For families with school-age children, you’d be pleased to know that the Crescent Girls’ School lies next to this new BTO development. If you are at stack 101, 103, 127, 129, 105, 139, you may catch a glimpse of your child(ren) in the school compound! Despite the convenience, residents should be prepared for greater noises and heavier traffic during peak hours.

There are also different places of worship near Alexandra Vista, offering easy access for the religious. In fact, stack 113 along Jervois Lane faces Grace Assembly (church) directly, while stacks 115 and 117 are near to the adjacent Masjid Jamae (mosque).

There’s a saying in fengshui that states that having a place of worship in front of the house indicates poverty; at the rear of the house indicates wealth; on the left and right of the house indicates widowhood. If you are concerned about staying near a place of worship, here’s our take on the fengshui implications:

Places of worship are where devotees gather and perform religious acts, hence it will congregate a strong force of energy that may cause a qi imbalance to its surroundings. Nevertheless, it is inaccurate to conclude the qi condition based on the place of worship alone.

To evaluate the auspiciousness of an area, factors such as the house facing, distance, luck cycle of the residents etc. must be considered. An on-site fengshui assessment for each unit is needed to determine the effects of the place of worship on the dwelling. If in doubt, you may want to consult a professional fengshui master.

Similar to the nearby Alexandra Peaks, Alexandra Vista overlooks Alexandra Canal and offers its residents scenic views and easy access to recreational activities along the waterfront. In landscape fengshui, a household is deemed auspicious and blessed with prosperity if flowing water can be viewed from your living room.

However, it is important to determine the direction of one’s home orientation as well as the flow of the water. At Alexandra Vista, most units overlooking the waterway are facing the most auspicious direction of Period 9, which is great news for would-be residents!

Lower floor units (below 7 storeys) that are facing the MSCP directly should be mindful of light and noise pollution, particularly stack 121, 123, and 125 whose living room and bedrooms face the MSCP. Excessive Light Sha and Sound Sha can increase stress and blood pressure levels. Worse still, it can even lead to insomnia.

To counter this, our fengshui masters propose the use of soundproofing technology in one’s personal space, especially for bedrooms. Additionally, homeowners can install thick curtains to reduce noise levels.

Last but not least, Bukit Merah is undergoing redevelopment. Hence, potential homeowners of Alexandra Vista must stay mindful of nearby developments, which could present potential conflict points,pollution and negative energies (Sha Qi), especially during the construction period. If required, always consult a professional fengshui practitioner to keep your home fengshui optimised at all periods.

Internal fengshui considerations

When it comes to choosing an ideal unit, keep in mind that the main orientation of a house will directly influence the overall luck of its residents. The house orientation refers to the facing of your house, which can typically be measured from the main entrance where qi flows in.

Alexandra Vista, located a stone’s throw from Alexandra Peaks (July 2025 BTO), comprises three residential blocks with 609 units of 2-room Flexi, 3-room, and 4-room flats. Each block stands at 32 storeys in height.

Based on fengshui analysis, North and South are the most auspicious directions in the Period 9 and 1 (years 2024 – 2063), and Northwest and Southeast are the second most auspicious directions. It is recommended to choose a unit that faces either of these directions or lies at the border of these directions to tap on the positive energies.

We have categorised the units at Alexandra Vista under the Period 9 Auspicious Home Ranking chart, as listed below.

Most units at Alexandra Vista face the most auspicious directions of the current fengshui period, but some face the less favourable East or West.

Did you know?

A headboard represents stability and support in your life, especially your romantic relationships. Hence, a solid and smooth headboard (without perforations) made of natural materials is recommended.

It is also best to leave these electronic devices out of your bedroom or hide them as best you can. If you already want to have a television in your room, you may want to consider placing it in an armoire or cover it neatly with a cloth when not in use.

For optimal fengshui benefits, it is best to align your bed position with your Bazi needs and ensure you have a clear vantage of the doorway (while not being in direct alignment). If in doubt, consider consulting a fengshui practitioner for a fengshui review.
