Updated: 8 August 2023

Completed in 2019, Alkaff Vista was the first Build-To-Order (BTO) flats to be ready for key collection in Singapore’s newest large estate, Bidadari  then. This highly sought-after residences in the central region of Singapore will fulfil its Minimum Occupancy Period (MOP) in the coming year, 2024.

With Alkaff Vista being the first Bidadari estate to be ready for key collection, let us delve deeper into the topography and environment with Master Goh Guan Leong  for a fengshui review of this highly sought-after estate. Read on!

Overview of Landform fengshui

Located along Upper Serangoon Road, Alkaff Vista is one of the first few housing developments in the Bidadari estate, which lies on the Eastern Dragon, representative of the Wood element. It seems fitting that the garden estate is built with the vision of “A Community in a Garden” where there would be much greenery.

From a fengshui perspective, Alkaff Vista is part of the “Transporting Cart of Gold and Jade” formation. This is a propitious land that is particularly suitable for industries such as commerce, finance, accounting, investments, etc. To better retain wealth luck , residential areas and shophouses are recommended to conduct renovation or a revamp from time to time.

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 be measured from the main entrance where qi flows in.

 

Based on fengshui analysis, North and South are the most auspicious directions in the upcoming Period 9 and Period 1 (years 2024 – 2063), and Northwest and Southeast are the second most auspicious directions.

Alkaff Vista comprises 4 residential blocks of 350 units of 4- and 5-room flats, ranging from 7 to 17 storeys. Those who are staying in Block 105A, 106A and 106B whose unit faces North and South shall enjoy favourable luck, as these are the auspicious directions in the upcoming Period 9 (year 2024 – 2043) and Period 1 (year 2044 – 2063).

On the other hand, the units in these blocks with stack number 42, 44, 68 and 66 need to take caution. The main orientation of these units is West facing, which is not so favourable. Do consider engaging a professional fengshui Master for further fengshui evaluation and enhancements.

Here’s what we recommend:

South-facing units

Block 105A: Stack 34, 36

Block 105B: Stack 46, 48

Block 106A: Stack 22, 24, 26, 28

Block 106B: Stack 62, 64

North-facing units

Block 105A: Stack 38, 40

Block 105B: Stack 54, 56

Block 106A: Stack 20, 30, 32

Block 106B: Stack 58, 60

 

External fengshui considerations

Adorned with roof gardens and green balconies at selected lift lobbies, Alkaff Vista’s proximity to the Alkaff Lake and Bidadari Park promises an overall tranquil stay with clear views. Nevertheless, there are some minor considerations to keep in mind.

Plants may be a symbol of vitality and growth, but it can also introduce unwanted pests into our homes if they are too close to entrances. Besides that, trees can also deflect incoming auspicious energies, so you need to take note if your unit is close to trees and plants.

As Alkaff Vista is located along Upper Serangoon Road, units that are facing or near this main road must be mindful of noise pollution (sound sha). You are recommended to hang a Petrified Wood emblem at the window facing the main road.

Low floor units of block 105A, stack number 34, 36, should take note if you are facing the road entrance of the future Bidadari Park Drive, as there could be conflicting energies when the road is in use.

Last but not least, those who are residing in units of Block 105A, stack number 34, 36 and Block 106A, stack number 22, 24, 26, 28 should take note: Sharp corners denote negative energies, and if your unit faces a sharp corner (of Alkaff Courtview), do consider hanging a Petrified Wood emblem to negate the unfavourable forces.

Did you know?

Open-concept kitchen are the rage in modern homes but there are fengshui considerations to be taken into account for the health and harmony  of your household. As the stove represents the female homeowner and health of the home occupants, its location and orientation are very important.

For example, a stove should not face the main door or be positioned under a beam. It also requires a backing. An open-concept kitchen is possible, but you should consider getting professional fengshui advice  for the best way to go about this.
