November 10, 2024 6:13 AMA few months back, we visited Sunset Way to look at the houses in this freehold, quiet enclave just down the road from Bukit Timah.
One thing you may have noticed is that Sunset View, despite having larger houses, is located closer to the HDB blocks in front of the Sunset landed estate. The area is still very quiet and private though, as it's separated by a large green area , and I didn't hear any noise during my walkabout. Aha! Indeed, the large green space is zoned "residential, subject to detailed planning." Why am I not surprised.
As I've mentioned before, the main "Sunset Way" road is quite busy. However, Sunset View is not directly linked to it and thus it won't get much commuting traffic.According to Google Maps, Sunset View will be a 25-minute walk from the upcoming Maju MRT station and is a 9-15 minute walk from the current closest bus stop, which is located on Clementi Road.
First and foremost, wildlife issues. I grew up near Clementi Forest and pythons, cobras, and monkeys were not an unusual sight. There was even a monkey couple that used to visit me regularly!
