The Amerald Studio – Key Facts at a Glance
The Amerald Studio is a student housing property located at Singapore 437297. It offers a mix of studio, non-ensuite, and 4-bedroom (4b) unit types. Published monthly rents range from SGD 2,800 to SGD 5,800 (indicative — confirm with the operator). The minimum lease is three months, and the earliest move-in date is 3 July 2026. Key inclusions cover bills, laundry facilities, and pet-friendly status. The property currently holds a Google rating of 4.5 based on two reviews.
Who This Residence Suits (and Who Should Look Elsewhere)
The single written review provides a clear signal about the resident profile:
“I stayed for 2 weeks with 4 Indonesian and 1 Malaysian 😁” – AAN SANI, Google
This tenant was part of a short-term group stay (two weeks) with a mix of international students from Southeast Asia. The reviewer gave a rating of 4 out of 5, suggesting a generally positive but not exceptional experience. The tone implies a sociable, communal atmosphere, which may suit students who prefer living with housemates from different countries and who are comfortable with a shared living arrangement (non-ensuite or 4b units likely used here). The property’s pet-friendly tag also indicates it allows animals, which is a niche advantage for students who want to bring or adopt a pet in Singapore.
Given that the price range is SGD 2,800–5,800 per month, this property occupies the mid-to-premium segment compared to the city’s overall starting price of SGD 207 (likely per week for budget rooms). Students on a tight budget — especially those looking for shared accommodations under SGD 1,000 per month — will find The Amerald Studio out of reach. Similarly, those seeking strict quiet or solo living might prefer a private studio, though studios are available here. The non-ensuite and 4b units will involve shared bathrooms and common spaces, which may not suit very private individuals.
The minimum lease of three months is relatively flexible for a short-term exchange or summer term, but not ideal for those needing shorter stays (e.g., one month). Long-term tenants (12+ months) could also consider this property, though the upper price band (SGD 5,800) is substantial — comparable to luxury apartments in central Singapore. Check with the operator whether discounts apply for longer leases.
Price Positioning vs City Average and Room Type Guidance
The citywide from-price of SGD 207 is extremely low — it likely refers to a weekly rate for a basic shared room in older, non-air-conditioned HDB flats or budget hostels. For a like-for-like comparison with The Amerald Studio, note that the lowest monthly rate here (SGD 2,800) translates to roughly SGD 646 per week, more than three times that floor. At the upper end (SGD 5,800/month ≈ SGD 1,338/week), the property sits well above typical student housing budgets.
That said, The Amerald Studio appears to be a purpose-built or professionally managed residence with included bills, laundry, and pet permission. The price includes utilities, which in Singapore can add SGD 150–300 per month for air conditioning and water. The laundry facility also saves recurring costs versus using external laundromats.
Room-type guidance:
- Studio units (highest price band, likely SGD 4,500–5,800): Suitable for singles or couples who want private living with a kitchenette and bathroom. Ideal for those who need quiet study space and cannot tolerate housemates.
- Non-ensuite units (likely mid-range, SGD 3,500–4,500): Private bedroom but shared bathroom. Good compromise between privacy and cost. Check whether the shared bathroom ratio is reasonable (e.g., one bathroom per two to three people).
- 4-bedroom (4b) units (lower band, around SGD 2,800–3,500): Each tenant gets a private bedroom, with shared common areas (kitchen, living room, and typically two bathrooms). Best for budget-conscious students who value a private bedroom over a bathroom.
Since exact price per unit type is not published, you must confirm the specific rate for your desired room type with the operator. Note that the “available from” date of 3 July 2026 suggests that rooms will be ready for the second semester or mid-year intake. If you need accommodation earlier (e.g., May or June 2026), this property may not suit you.
Booking Timing and Availability
The property is taking applications for move-in from July 2026. Given that Singapore student housing demand peaks between July and September (aligned with academic year starts), you should consider booking by March–May 2026 to secure a unit at your preferred price point. The property has only two Google reviews as of now, indicating it may be a relatively new listing or a smaller building. Early booking increases your chance of getting a studio (usually limited in supply) or the cheapest 4b slot.
Because the minimum lease is three months, you could also consider a short-term booking (e.g., July–September 2026) if you plan to leave after the summer. However, confirm whether the three-month minimum applies equally to all room types and whether early termination fees exist.
If you have a pet (cat or small dog), inquire directly about pet policies — the tag says pet friendly, but there may be restrictions on species, size, or number. Some properties also charge a pet deposit or monthly fee.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum lease term?
The minimum lease is three months. This makes the property suitable for exchange students or those on short-term attachments. If you need a shorter stay (e.g., one month), this property will not be available. For longer stays (6–12 months), confirm whether the monthly rate can be negotiated downward, as many operators offer discounts for longer commitments.
Are bills and utilities included?
Yes, the “bills_included” tag indicates that electricity, water, and internet are covered in the published rent. In Singapore, utility costs can vary significantly, especially with air conditioning usage. This inclusion simplifies budgeting and avoids unexpected surcharges. However, confirm with the operator whether there is a cap (e.g., a certain amount of electricity per month) and what happens if you exceed it.
Is the residence pet-friendly?
Yes, the property explicitly lists “Pet Friendly” as a tag. This is unusual for student housing in Singapore, where most landlords prohibit animals. If you have a dog or cat, you should verify the specific pet policy: weight limits, number of pets allowed, and any additional cleaning fees. Also check whether the building management imposes restrictions (e.g., certain breeds or sizes). The presence of a pet may also affect your choice of housemates if you are in a 4b unit.
