Bukit Timah Rent Prices in Singapore 2026
Our Verdict
"Final Boss"
At a median of S$56/m², this area earns its FINAL_BOSS status by pricing out everyone except the C-suite and old-money circles. Our neighborhood analysis shows that while the S$34/m² entry point exists for older walk-ups, the upper limit of S$92.5/m² reflects the extreme demand for modern builds near Stevens Road. The investment outlook remains ironclad because land here is finite and the proximity to elite schools keeps the floor price high regardless of market cooling measures.
The Vibe:This is a landscape of sprawling Good Class Bungalows and massive greenery where the Downtown Line provides a necessary escape from the relentless Dunearn Road congestion. Expect to see rows of luxury SUVs idling near Coronation Plaza during the school run and serious hikers heading toward the Nature Reserve on weekends. It feels less like a city and more like an established landed enclave where privacy is the primary currency.
The median rent price in Bukit Timah, Singapore is S$56 per m² per month, 14% above the Singapore city average of S$49/m². Based on 9 verified rental data points as of February 2026.

Locals Ask
Why are the m² stats so varied here?
The S$34/m² rate usually applies to older, low-rise walk-ups without lifts, whereas the S$92.5/m² peak covers brand-new luxury condos with private lifts and unblocked views.
Is the Downtown Line actually useful for residents?
Absolutely, it’s a lifesaver for avoiding the peak-hour gridlock on Bukit Timah Road if you need to hit the CBD in 20 minutes.
Is the investment outlook positive for renters turning into buyers?
This is a low-volatility zone; prices rarely dip significantly because the scarcity of freehold land near Top-tier schools creates a permanent safety net.
What’s the biggest annoyance about living here?
The traffic during school drop-off and pick-up hours is legendary; if you aren't out by 6:45 AM, you’re stuck in a crawl.
Where do locals actually shop for groceries?
While there is a FairPrice Finest at Bukit Timah Plaza, most high-budget residents frequent the specialty butchers and organic grocers at Cluny Court.
