Published: 7 Sept 2026
Sitting along Hillview Rise, Hillhaven is a 99-year leasehold condominium that promises views of the surrounding Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Dairy Farm Nature Park and the Rail Corridor. This nature-inspired residence sold out within two years of its launch and is expected to reach its Temporary Occupation Permit (TOP) in the coming year.
Wondering how its surrounding landscape shapes overall harmony and wealth? Read on for our in-depth fengshui review of Hillhaven.
Landform fengshui: Hillhaven in District 23 (D23)
In Singapore, the Five Dragon Landform Fengshui harnesses “hidden dragons”, which are man-made structures that channel energy flow. 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.
Located at Hillview Rise, Hillhaven sits near the tail of the Western Dragon, a fengshui location known for its dynamic, shifting energies. The Dragon’s Tail symbolises movement, transformation and the need for resilience in the face of change.
While this area carries a more unpredictable flow of Qi, it also offers opportunities for those with courage, adaptability and an unwavering heart. Residents who embrace flexibility and maintain inner strength are well placed to ride the waves of change and turn challenges into breakthroughs.
Fengshui formation of Hillhaven in D23
Hillhaven sits in Hillview, within the Bukit Batok planning area. It is part of the fengshui formation of “Strong Dragon Rearing its Head”. This fengshui land formation was created as a result of the dragon’s flight being obstructed by Bukit Panjang Hill and Bukit Timah Hill.
This indicates that this land is suitable for public housing or government offices but not so for industrial estates. People with strong characters may consider residing here, as they shall be able to prosper along with the “strong dragon”. In fact, this is a suitable residential area for young and healthy people who are seeking success.
On the other hand, those who are mentally weak might feel oppressed under the influence of the strong-willed and ambitious dragon. Dark colours and metallic furniture should be avoided in the house, while red and bright colours are recommended.
The scenic landscape here makes it favourable for those in the arts and literary field, while the dragon’s strong ambitions and outstanding capabilities imply great success.
Exterior fengshui considerations

Nestled in the tranquil neighbourhood of Hillview with nature reserves and parks close by, Hillhaven condo offers unblocked views of greenery for select units, particularly those overlooking the future road. From a fengshui viewpoint, unblocked views are favoured as it represents the Red Phoenix, symbolising aspirations and a bright future. Such smooth flow of energy in the absence of points of conflict (Sha) is essential.
Stacks overlooking the pool and facing Hillview Rise sit directly across from HillV2 and Midwood, both roughly the same height, so views here are likely partial. While this usually has an impact on the flow of Qi, the site’s nature-inspired design helps mitigate this with more than 50% of the site dedicated to green and blue spaces.
Bukit Panjang Hill rises to the north-northwest of Hillhaven. In fengshui, mountains are associated with luck, health and family harmony. Some practitioners would read an elevated feature like this as a Black Tortoise “backing”, symbolising protection and stability. However, further analysis will be required for each unit to affirm this.
Surrounded by nature, residents of Hillhaven should stay mindful if your unit is close to trees and plants. While plants may be a symbol of vitality and growth, they can introduce unwanted pests into our homes if they are too close to entrances. Besides that, trees can also deflect incoming auspicious energies. If in doubt, don’t hesitate to consult a professional fengshui practitioner.
Internal fengshui considerations
Homeowners should bear in mind the main orientation of your house, as it will directly influence the overall luck of your household member(s). The house orientation refers to the facing of your house, which can be measured from the main entrance where Qi flows in.

Did you know?
Period 9 corresponds with the South, representing a strong Fire element. As such, be mindful when locating important spaces within your premises. For example, it is best to make adjustments if your stove (also of the fire element) is facing South; otherwise, too much fire energy can cause instability and burnout for members in the household.
In fengshui, the stove represents “the female owner of the house”. As such, the state of the stove in your house represents the condition of your mother or wife. If your stove happens to face South, you are highly recommended to consult a professional fengshui master for appropriate fengshui measures.
