Room in a 4 Bedroom Apartment, 27 Moulmein Rise – Overview and who it’s for
This property at 27 Moulmein Rise, Singapore 308140, is a shared apartment arranged as four private bedrooms within a single unit. Residents have access to a gym, a swimming pool, and a rooftop terrace. The property is listed as a non-ensuite room (shared bathroom) and also falls under the “independent house” category on some platforms, meaning you occupy one room in a larger private apartment rather than a purpose-built student hall.
Who this residence suits:
- Those who want a serviced apartment experience with hotel-like amenities (pool, gym, rooftop) while renting a single room.
- Students or young professionals who are comfortable sharing kitchen and living spaces with three other residents.
- People who prefer a short minimum lease (3 months) – useful for exchange semesters or temporary assignments.
- Individuals who appreciate having a balcony and a well-equipped kitchen, as noted in reviews.
- Visitors from India or other regions who value a spray jet (bidet) in the toilet – mentioned by a past guest.
Who this residence may NOT suit:
- Anyone requiring an ensuite bathroom – this room is listed as non-ensuite, so the bathroom is shared with other flatmates.
- Those who need a very long lease (more than 6–12 months) – the minimum is only 3 months, but many operators prefer shorter stays for serviced apartments; confirm with the operator if you need a full year.
- People who need absolute quiet and privacy at all times – a shared apartment implies common areas and potential noise from flatmates.
- Budget-conscious renters who want the cheapest possible room in Singapore – the city’s starting price on this platform is SGD 207/month (indicative — confirm with the operator), but a serviced apartment with pool and gym will likely be significantly higher. No price is listed for this room, so you must check directly.

Price context and room type considerations
The platform that lists this property shows a city-wide starting price of SGD 207/month (indicative — confirm with the operator). That low figure typically refers to a basic shared room in a student hostel far from the city centre. This apartment, by contrast, is a serviced apartment with premium facilities. You should expect a per-room price that is substantially higher than SGD 207. Because no exact price is displayed in the dataset, you must contact the operator for the current monthly rate.
Room-type guidance:
-
The listing is labeled as “Room in a 4 Bedroom Apartment.” That means you rent one private bedroom, while the kitchen, living room, and bathroom(s) are shared with up to three other residents.
-
Although the data includes “1b” (one-bedroom) as a possible unit type, this specific listing is for a single room in a larger apartment, not an entire one-bedroom flat. If you want a fully self-contained unit, look for a separate “1 Bedroom Apartment” listing.
-
Check whether the bathroom is truly shared (non-ensuite) as indicated. Reviews mention a shower and spray jet in the toilet, but it is unclear if that bathroom is private or shared. Ask the operator directly.
-
Common areas include a kitchen (reviewers note it is well-equipped) and a balcony. The pool and gym are building-wide facilities, not exclusive to the apartment.
Booking timing and availability
The property is available from 22 July 2026, with a minimum lease of 3 months. Because this is a serviced apartment, availability can shift quickly. If your move-in date is before July 2026, you will need to wait or look for other options. If you plan to start in August–September 2026 (the start of many academic semesters), this date works well for a 3-month stay covering the first term.
Recommendation: Book as early as possible once the operator confirms the price and room configuration. Serviced apartments in popular districts like Novena often fill up during peak intake periods (July–August). The property has 209 reviews, indicating decent popularity. Combining that with a 4.2 rating and a rooftop/pool makes it a competitive option.
