Mount Emily Park and the Hillside

The green heart of the Duet @ Emily address is Mount Emily Park, a hilltop park about two minutes’ walk from 2, 4 & 6 Mount Emily Road. It is one of the older parks in the city, a crown of mature trees and lawns above the busy streets of Selegie, Rochor and Little India.

Mount Emily Park Beside Duet @ Emily

The park occupies the summit of the hill that gives the road its name. Its paths loop among tall rain trees and shaded lawns, and it is popular with residents for morning walks, a run before work, or an unhurried hour with a book. For a household at Duet @ Emily it is, in effect, a garden at the end of the street — a hillside of mature trees in the middle of the city.

A Heritage Hillside Around Duet @ Emily

The streets that climb the hill — Mount Emily Road, Upper Wilkie Road and Niven Road among them — carry a mix of conserved houses and institutional buildings that give the area its character. Duet @ Emily belongs to that fabric: its three-storey conservation building is restored rather than replaced, and its new annex is set behind it so the street keeps its historic face. The Duet @ Emily project details page describes the building in full.
